Opeth's new album Watershed has been leaked out... and I grabbed it. I must say I was not sure of what to expect after the departure of Martin and Peter, and after listening to it for the first time, it was a pretty decent album. Didn't really like the harder stuff the first time I heard it.

However, I am pleased to report that after giving the entire album a couple of more listens... it's fantastic! I simply love 'Coil' and 'Heir Apparent'... beautiful. Definite purchase when it comes out next month.

In other news, 4 weeks after my car accident, the whole band gathered again for a jam session (minus our vocalist... -_-), and guess what happened? We got into ANOTHER accident. This time, thankfully, it wasn't anything serious. Some dude rear-ended us on the highway while we were stuck in traffic. Not a good way to start the month (although its almost 2 weeks into it but anyway).

Oh the jam session was pretty fun. I had to fill in on vocals. I've always told people I can NEVER sing, and this session just proves it. It was by far one of the funniest sessions we've ever had due to me not being able to hit the higher notes and changing pitch in the middle of a song , and we were also a little rusty after 4 weeks of not playing together. Gah.

Still working on my assignments as usual... gonna take some time off and attend a live show on the 17th. A bunch of local bands are playing, and considering I haven't been to a gig in ages... >_>;
