[pyr0rrzzz]

[Lasse]

Oh man, that reminds me of the Lamentation window that they had. Everytime you went to the website, that would come up...

Didn't read the first few pages but, did anyone else see that BWP is 19 minutes long?

The song isn't. That includes the jam + talking time before they go into DOTF.

 

[Black Session]

why does it say on that peacevill website at the end of the short clip that it will be available for download at 29th of october before it is released in the stores?? .. that's just stupid

and has it been leaked??? wtf? and you guys actually like that? ... bizar

 

[Blind Guardian]

yeah i thought, what the fuck are they talking about? the album isn´t released yet

 

[themirror06]

I'm really looking foward to it.
Last year in Cologne BWP & TNATSW were great live!!!
The only thing that disappoints me a bit is the tracklist. I would love to hear Bleak directly after When, the "transition" between the ending of "When" and the beginning of "Bleak" was perfect at Cologne. But who cares....

 

[Ruun]

got my promo today!

sooooo awesome ))
"thank you for coming, this is blackwater park!"

[Blind Guardian]

wow i didn´t know there was a soundclip on opeth´s website. Noticed that the singing seemed to be top notch!

 

[ever dying]

Maybe they weren't talking about the leak.. But the soundclip? Sounds awesome imo.. Bit fast tho..

 

[pyr0rrzzz]

Yeah, that's why they quote things that are certainly not mentioned in the soundclip(s)

 

[ever dying]

Well, kind of obvious then?

Forgive me for being slow, but are they actually going to release the DVD of the concert? or is only going to be the live album now?

I am very happy with how this album sounds. I have learned to not care about the annoying beeps, and the fact that it's just 2 long tracks.

The stand out moment for me throughout the whole album is the "burn the winter landmarks...." part in UTWM. That performance is absolutely beautiful. Also, I am very surprised at how well Mikael hits his highs on GoP.

Lopez needs to sit Axe down and teach his ass how to play Windowpane. Starting with, not hitting the snare so fuckin hard! Jesus man! WTF.

This is great, even for a live album. I think some of these give the studio versions a good run for their money.
