Limited double 180 gm vinyl LP pressing including digital download. 2014 album from the Swedish Metal band produced by the band's very own Mikael Akerfeldt and mixed by longtime collaborator and Porcupine Tree frontman/guitarist Steven Wilson. The material finds Opeth once again challenging the boundaries of extreme music. In an interview with Vice's Noisey, Akerfeldt stated, 'I wanted to do something more melodic with this album, there's stronger vocal melodies and more melodies overall, I was pretty consistent with that frame of mind throughout the writing process.' PALE COMMUNION follows 2011's critically acclaimed HERITAGE which proved a milestone album for Opeth, earning them widespread acclaim and an ever-growing fan following.

Pale Communion is the eleventh studio album by Swedish progressive metal band Opeth. The album was released in 2014. The album was produced by Mikael Åkerfeldt and mixed by Steven Wilson. Mikael Åkerfeldt said of the album, ""I wanted to do something more melodic with this album, so there's stronger vocal melodies and more melodies overall for this album."" Greg Kennelty of Metal Injection said the album does not contain ""growls or death metal vocals"" and he described the album as ""the missing link between Damnation and Ghost Reveries or if Heritage was written directly after Ghost Reveries without Watershed having ever existed"". AllMusic's Thom Jurek has compared the album to Deep Purple's In Rock and King Crimson's early music. Pale Communion is now available on black vinyl and contains a 4 page booklet.
