So, Roadrunner released s song from Watershed to download for free recently, The Lotus Eater, and tomorrow Porcelain Heart is released as a single on Amazon.
http://www.roadrunnerrecords.co.uk/free/opeth/ . The Lotus Eater http://www.amazon.com/Porcelain-Heart/dp/B0017IZOT6/ - You'll be able to buy Porcelain Heart there. So, I just wanted to show it to you who might have missed it and I thought we could discuss the songs aswell here. I just have to say that The Lotus Eater might very well be the best opeth song ever made in my opinion (if it's possible to chose one), I love everything about this song. I don't even doubt fredrik now, he's got some awesome solos. I can't wait for june 2'nd.. |

Yeah, they've been out for a while, but not "legal" untill now, so I didn't want to make a thread about it since you shouldn't encourage piracy here

Those songs are seriously badass, I listened Porcelain Heart at youtube, and my expectations went off the roof for the new album. Lotus Eater is so "Opeth", but still it sounds fresh and new from them. I love the fact that Opeth has their own sound, but on each new album they bring something new to it and it keeps their music so fresh and interesting.
The "disco beat" section is so weird and unexpected, I couldn't stop smiling Only Åkerfeldt can come up with that kind of stuff Greatest band at the moment IMO -------------------- Gear:

I have to add that I love the part that sounds a lot like the main riff from "Cossacks Are" from the drift, and well. Fredriks (or I'm 99% sure it's Fredrik at least) solo there is incredibly awesome and I have no doubts in him any more. Also, I never doubted Axe, but he's better than I could ever imagine. The drums at 2.15 in Porcelain Heart are nothing but orgasmic. Yeah, the first second I heard The Lotus Eater, I thought: " totally Scott Walker" I'm guessing there's gonna be a huge SW influence on the whole record. Axe really surprised me also, he's very good, but in my mind, no one can beat the great Martin Lopez -------------------- Gear:

I heard Porcelain Heart yesterday and for me it's a lot better than the lotus eater i think it's an amazing track. I'm definitely looking forward to the new album in June.
