Opeth's Still Life remixed/remastered

[Burnout]

Has anyone here picked up the remixed/remastered version of Opeth's Still Life yet? I just ordered it after hearing the samples and the significantly improved sound. I'm really looking forward to hearing it in surround sound too.

I'm looking forward to hearing the 5.1 mix, especially since it's my favorite album of theirs.

I will only listen to that album if it was remixed in such a manner as it sounds like Mikael fronting a glam band.

I saw something about it. However, I'm of the opinion that altering this disc in any manner is akin to blasphemy.

interesting. the samples sound good, can't wait to check it out.

Apparently it's only the 5.1 that was remixed and remastered, the studio version was just remastered.

Fine by me, I'm buying it just for the 5.1 mix anyway (and because the fanboy in me says I have to own it all). I have no issues with the original release of it so the regular version isn't too interesting.
