String Tribute to Opeth Tracklisting/Info?

No surprise here. These string tribute albums have been getting churned out for several years now, covering all sorts of bands (listen to the Tool one for a good laugh). absolute garbage, every single one.

I don't know who in their right mind would EVER give the okay for their music to be butchered like this....'cause let's face it, this album, pure and simple, was made to make money off Opeth fans. It sure as fuck isn't any sort of artistic endeavor.

i'd be really surprised if this had Mike's seal of approval. Sounds more like a label decision to me...:(
 
I ordered this ridiculous turd before I heard the clips, but fortunately it will remain unopened and will be zooming it's way back to amazon.com.
