More Info:
WATERSHED is the new album from the forward-thinking Swedish titans who seamlessly and fluidly combine Metal, Classic Rock, Prog, Folk and Free Form Jazz. With this, their ninth effort, Opeth continue to shake things up, turn the corner and push the limits of their sound. And the results are breathtaking. Ultimately, Watershed sounds at once completely like and absolutely nothing like previous Opeth records. Watershed takes all that is Opeth, and goes where Opeth have never gone before.Reviews:
Prog-metal geeks have their arguments, just like superfans of any other subgenre, but most concur that Tool, Meshuggah and this Swedish five-piece are about as forward-thinking as anything the mainstream has to offer. Opeth leader Mikael Ãkerfeldt is well-known as a '70s vinyl enthusiast and manages to streamline his disparate influences into visceral metal suites that convey grandeur and danger rather than the self-indulgence that plagues so many of his peers.
