Album Description:
The Special Edition includes three bonus tracks, 5.1 audio mix of the entire album, extensive video content, expanded artwork and more.Special Edition includes DVD with bonus tracks. The forward-thinking Swedish titans, who seemlessly and fluidly combine metal, classic rock, prog, folk and free form jazz, continue the time-honored Opeth tradition on Watershed, their second album for Roadrunner Records. 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.

Thats exactly what Opeth is not only today, but almost a decade now. At least since the magnum opus Blackwater Park was released.

His ability to create sounds that get deep inside of you and always haunt you is absolutely magnificent. His ability to find always the best possible musicians ... Read More

Production is great, augmented instrumentation (strings, oboes) are a nice touch, Mikael's clean singing continues to impress. But the simple fact ... Read More

I don't write many reviews so this will be my short analysis of the Watershed album.
Don't worry about the line-up change, the drumming is fantastic and does not fall short of Opeth's high standards. The new lead guitarist can shred, which opeth have lacked for so long. Don't get me wrong, Peter was a fantastic guitarist, but the new, ex-arch enemy guitarist is beter suited for the Death Metal side of things. The song writing is very diverse.
First of all there is Coil. A ... Read More

Opeth's last release, Ghost Reveries, was named top album of 2005 by many sites across the internet. This time, Opeth is back with 2008 release Watershed, and a lot of expectations from the fans. Watershed features new guitarist Fredrik Åkesson (Arch Enemy) and new drummer Martin "Axe" Axenrot, who's been filling in for Martin Lopez since the Reverie tours.
Throughout their career Opeth has been notorious for diversity while maintaining a distinctive style of music, and Watershed proves ... Read More

this cd shows the clear descent taken by the band after lopez quit, and after the highpoint reached with the incredible ghost reveries. axe is limited.. period..
akerfeldt's songwriting switched accordingly to more basic songs, mostly ballads
