Opeth's ninth studio outing ,WATERSHED, is not only an improvement upon 2005's GHOST REVERIES, it plunges the group headlong into a fresh wellspring of creativity that is evident throughout. Starting with the folkish "Coil," the band plays with a host of new sounds, allowing the keyboards to breathe and simultaneously lulling the listener into a false sense of security with sugary female vocals. Opeth then blasts into "Heir Apparent" with a rejuvenated fervor not heard since 2001's BLACKWATER PARK. WATERSHED is riddled with new, experimental instrumentation, heart-pounding song arrangements and impeccably crisp production. A pioneer of atmospheric genre-blending, Opeth takes its neo-progressive rock and scorches it with some of the most black-tongued, shredding death metal this side of the abyss.

- NOTE: Many websites are claiming this to be on gold vinyl. However, the gold color variants have long sense been sold out. The record label swapped out the gold variants for black variants and conveniently neglected to inform record stores. In addition to that, they kept the same SKU and UPC on both versions - making it even more difficult. This copy is presumed to be on BLACK vinyl.
