Porcelain Heart sample?

[Andrew Park]

no way dude that artwork looks GREAT! I love a plain artwork like that.

 

[Peacehand]

i dunno kinda sort like it kinda sorta don't only like 8 secs long though . . . .lyrics are borderline cheezy to me

edit : This would have made a way better album cover in my opinion

I know its doesn't sound like a song about pagans slaughtering a village or killing virgins, but i do still enjoy the lyrics.
I think Opeth has some the best lyrics in metal.
But to each his own.
I'm such a nut, i registered just to say that, LOL.
Oh well, good cheers all.

Roadrunner have a cover up for Porcelain heart too. Looks kinda plain to me.

Is this going to be released as a physical signle on the same date, or just when the album comes out? Sounds great by the way!

True, I mean it does have that almost porcelain look. After a few hours I think I kinda like it too, reminds me of the Ghost Reveries special edition actually.

Anyone think it'll be released on an actual single CD aswell? I'd like that.

 

[heather_opeth]

awesome

 

[Blind Guardian]

This is exactly the type of sound i hoped for,wonderful

How can you elaborate an opinion based on that short ass sample. Impossible.

I like the logo. Looks pretty.

my first listen of Opeth I made an opinion based on the intro to drapery falls.

 

[winters epilogue]

Lovely, can't wait for this album.

 

[Slynt]

Based on this short sample, I feel this part from "Porcelain Heart" in sound and style lies closely to the two ballads of Ghost Reveries, which I find to be too smooth/soft/croonish, so these fifteen seconds at least are disapointing. But then again, "Heir Apparent" sounds awesome. But really..the soft side of Opeth is really gone too soft lately. A song like "To Bid You Farewell" or "Credence" were soft too, but still kind of foresty / metallish

 

[Rogue Eagle]

hmm, I dunno metalmaster...
It's not quite as soft as the GR tracks....

has more of a damnation vibe to it IMO

 

[Slynt]

I'm gonna listen to it again, maybe you're right, but I am talking primarily about Mikael's vocal style on this sample which is similar to what we got in "Hours of Wealth" and "Isolation Years" - but I hear the Damnation vibe instrumentally.

On a different yet vaguely similar topic, is "Porcelain Heart" Opeth's 'softest' title ever? Sounds like a heartbreak song.. eeew I like demons of the fall and stuff ..

 

[Simskre]

I dig this sample, but I want to hear the whole song

 

[Eternalnow]

I don't know why, but judging a song based on an 8 or 15 second clip reminds me of those silly people who get brief glimpes into the unknown and form all sorts of religions and beliefs based in their tiny, tiny perception.

 

[Maggai]

That sounds soo good. Goddamn. Can't wait to get this album.

 

[Albatros]

F@CK ITS GREAT!

 

[BrandonS]

I bet you it morphs into a blistering heavy track 2 seconds after that clip that would cause you all to cream in your pants. Just sit tight. It's only 6 days now?

 

[Andrew Park]

Needs more cowbell!

 

[nadavnaz]

GIMME MORE. I've been looping this for the past 5 minutes


---edit:today I got more. THE WHOLE SONG! ))

Then don't listen to it.
