The Official Reveries news

[Arnold Layne]

Damnation wasn't dark at all...

True, although atmospheric and reflective, I agree it wasnt dark.

 

[Alcapoth]

Well, the album surely wasn't a "happy" album, that's for sure.

 

[Mantraschism]

That cover is amazing. It may be my favorite of all Opeth covers, although Morningrise and Blackwater Park are way up there (Orchid, too). It reminds me of the front cover to Diabolical Masquerade - Nightwork, with the church-like window in the background and overall spookiness.

 

[Botfly]

To Rid The Disease is their most evil and darkest song.

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]

according to mikael, yes. according to truth, no.

just because ähm, it is slightly ... mellow...doesnt mean it is ähm, less evil, does it?

LOL, i love that part. I crack up every time I watch Lamentations. That and when some guy asks Mike how the wife is.

Strangely enough, my Damnation album actually had a sticker on it...if my memory serves correctly it said 'Warning: This album contains explicit content', or something along those lines. Dont ask me why, though. Maybe the censors are going for the overall 'tone' of the album rather than lyrics...

Yeah my copy has that sticker too. I just think the classification boards in some countries are daft/fucking retarded/undeserving of life.

 

[xerexes]

I don't really think that the cover looks all that great

Glad I'm not the only one. :Smug:

 

[Anarkissed]

Yeah my copy has that sticker too. I just think the classification boards in some countries are daft/fucking retarded/undeserving of life.

Well, I'm from Melb/Aust too, so could be just Australia's censors being daft/fucking retarded/undeserving of life.

 

[FUBAR]

Finally got my PC working, Its cool to see and hear all this new stuff about the new album, cool cover aswell

 

[Mantraschism]

wow, pretty rare to see 4 album covers are "way up" on a list of 8 total

=P Well, three of them are tied for second place....

 

[Vrykolakas]

Yeah my copy has that sticker too. I just think the classification boards in some countries are daft/fucking retarded/undeserving of life.

Well said. :Smug:

 

[spigot]

Yeah my copy has that sticker too. I just think the classification boards in some countries are daft/fucking retarded/undeserving of life.

Maybe someone said it was an album by a death metal band, and obviously death metal is all about skullfucking corpses with and inverted cross.

i like on this cynic bootleg where the singer says "we're about to take a voyage" and some prick in the crowd yells "A THREE HOUR TOUR?? LOL" and then the singer says "a celestial voyage" and he says "OH OKAY"

haha i have that bootleg too. awsome video
i love how everyones screaming always LAST SONG and shit
also after veil of maya how this one guys like "thats not even their best song man... they got better shit even"

i also like when paul masvidal says "self is the universe, so much as the trees and stars" before the eagle nature wtf?
