Ghost Reveries

~ Release by Opeth (see all versions of this release, 21 available)

Annotation

Recorded at: Fascination street, Winter/Spring 2005

The pause between track 4 and 5 lasts about one minute (1.07 to be exact) and is filled with some quite quiet music. The name of track 5 contains two titles. The one followed by the slash ("Reverie") is probably the title for the piece of music between track 4 and 5.

Soldier of Fortune, is the first Opeth recording to feature Martin Axenrot on drums, which was also a live in-studio recording.
