Uncharacteristic of earlier Opeth in that it features all clean vocals and isn't "metal" by any stretch of the definition. And while it wears its '70s prog rock influences proudly (hey, mellotron!) it isn't much like their recent retro-prog albums either. Much quieter, and more introspective. One of my favorite Opeth albums.
Taken together with its separated-at-birth fraternal twin Deliverance (they were originally intended to be released together as a double album) it's very much a yin/yang sort of thing. While Damnation is easily the mellowest album they've ever done, much of Deliverance is an in-your-face slab of high-energy progressive death metal, more reminiscent of their 2001 release Blackwater Park. (And also very good, but in a different way.)

No, I don't. Will look into it.

Honorably, I will not answer, for to do so would require the services of Google.
That said, when you tell me I'm going to kick myself.
