Opeth
In Cauda Venenum

Listening notes

Opeth's In Cauda Venenum was released in 2019 on Nuclear Blast Records under catalog number NB 5102. The album appears in the prog rock and rock genres and was issued in a vinyl format spanning four sides across what the tracklist confirms is a double LP configuration.

The ten tracks are distributed across the four sides with a consistent runtime that reflects the extended song structures the sequencing suggests. Side A opens with "Livets Trädgård" at 3:29 before moving into "Svekets Prins" at 6:35 and closing with the longest track on that side, "Hjärtat Vet Vad Handen Gör," at 8:30. Side B carries two tracks: "De Närmast Sörjande" at 7:08 and "Minnets Yta" at 6:34. Side C holds three tracks — "Charlatan" at 5:29, "Ingen Sanning Är Allas" at 7:21, and "Banemannen" at 6:44. Side D closes the record with "Kontinuerlig Drift" at 7:24 and "Allting Tar Slut" at 8:31, the latter matching "Hjärtat Vet Vad Handen Gör" as the joint longest individual track at 8:31.

The album's titles are in Swedish throughout, a detail the tracklist makes plain. The total running time across all ten tracks amounts to approximately 67 minutes and 45 seconds, a figure that accounts for the four-side spread across the double LP.
