Overall the production is pretty heavy and vastly superior to the unisound-albums, but still it's a weaker production than later albums. why?
- the snaredrum sounds a bit like paper, with to much reverb and sloppy tuning
- the bass is low in the mix, played with pick and ugly reverb, not that fat
- the clean electric guitar has an awfully plastic sound, sounds like a cheap digital Zoom-pedal, lifeless and full ov reverb
- the trademark low-distortion-guitarsound is not yet found. the fat metalguitars are cool too, but I really think low-distortion is perfect for opeth
all this being said, the production overall still suits the album, and it is one hell of a good record.
