lipmyreeds Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Pre-ordered the deluxe as soon as I heard The Devil's Orchard. Cannot wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morfiend Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 just got my box set, it looks amazing! i can't wait to listen! I was going to bring some of those into my shop but even the wholesale price was high. I decided to settle on the regular vinyl edition.

koremora Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 The box set looks cool but I just can't justify spending a good 50 to 60 dollars more for a 7". Really great album though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinyl Fury Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Just brought this home, listening now. I wish Roadrunner would ease up on their prices, there's no reason this needs to be upwards of $30 as the packaging is nothing special and it has no download code. However, it is a really fantastic album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pre-ordered the deluxe version...not sure if anyone who pre-ordered the standard vinyl got one or not. Anyone? EDIT: oops...someone earlier in the thread suggested the deluxe was the only pre-order. I'm all confused this AM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumbercules Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Pretty disappointed with this album. That tells everyone a lot. Why? I don't know, it just doesn't really go anywhere for me. It doesn't have the dynamics that the other records have. It feels like it's just one long blah. It's not like it's bad; there are solos, etc., and the drums are excellent (as usual). It seems like Mike just needed to get this prog shit out of his system and this is what we got. I'm sure it'll grow on me, but it's not doing much for me after the first 4-5 listens. Two word summary: boring, uninteresting. This is coming from a huge Opeth fan, btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 i had the same reaction. i love Opeth, and i listen to prog and jazz, but for some reason, this just didn't stick with me. i couldn't even make it through the entire album. i may have to give it another chance.

sisuspeed Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Yeah, Heritage took me about four or five listens until I got into most of it. I Feel the Dark and Folklore are awesome, but Slither and Nepenthe are pretty weak. I think the jarring transitions were what threw me the most at first, but once you get to know the songs everything seems to flow better. Definitely not another Blackwater Park, but better than most new releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vool Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The album is neither boring nor uninteresting! ...BUT...it's not Opeth to my ears....that's probably the reason why I have not listened to it more than two times... :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lipmyreeds Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I agree with a little bit of all of this. For what it is, it's truly a great album. I'd just prefer it to be a little more of Opeth's sound. Don't really care about the growls, but rather the mood, guitar tone, edge, etc. I do love the album though...I think it's a great front-to-back listen and can't wait to hear it live.

morfiend Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I like it a lot, in fact, the only song I don't like is "Slither". I can see why people would be turned off though, the songs are pretty sporadic with little structure and a lot of noodling. I think this album is much more interesting than the last 2.

sisuspeed Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 They are awesome! I've got the devil apple one on my turntable right now. I was definitely stoked to see those for sale at the concert. Also picked up the tour shirt with the turntable on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
