I've only heard like two songs so far (I need to download the album) it was good but there just wasn't anything that was "WOW AWESOME I WANT TO LISTEN TO THIS 3463 times!!!!!". Also, the fact that Martin Lopez isn't the drummer anymore bugs me a lot. Martin Axenrot is really good, but I just think that Lopez was the backbone of Opeth, he just had this really awesome groove that metal drummers don't normally have.

I'll give a more detailed opinion once I listened to the full album. But I sadly, really lost interest in Opeth even though I love quite a few of their albums.

Btw, Ulver released a new album in 2007 if I remember correctly. It was basically electronic ambient if I recall properly.
