I did the same thing for Nile,and I'm gonna do the same for Opeth.
EDIT:I don't think there is anything wrong with getting it sooner,I just like the suspense of holding out for it.

You'll die of blue balls before August 30th. Take my word on that. 
And no, I wasn't sure if you had ripped it onto your computer. Thats why I asked.

The Grand Conjuration seemed alittle too Industrial in the beggining but now that I've listened to it a few times, its gotten better.
Im just hoping that the other songs will give me goosebumps just like every other song they have written.

I just got it. Its very different to there other releases. Only problem is the 2 songs which leaked + baying of the hounds seem to be the only heavy songs on the album. I"ll get flamed for saying this but it seems like the other songs seem to be fillers o well.

I don't think anyone has mentioned Weakling's Dead As Dreams. My friend sent me a copy and it's absolutely amazing.

I still say that "greatest album ever" is too far... Even to an Opeth whore like me... thats too far.

All im saying is that it didnt stand out as much as still life + blackwaterpark. Every song on those albums were totally memorable. There's nothin really on this album which grabs u, just my 2 cents.

If this is the greatest album ever, then I'm Mickey fucking Mouse.
I've only heard one time through, so I'm going to reserve judgement for now but I will say the album is not bad. So far it's about average, nothing special. I know Opethfan will have my head for even thinking about actually listening to this and not proclaiming the greatest thing ever before ever letting it sink in, but that's the way you should do these things.
A few observations though
The production is very, very slick. Too slick in fact, it's processed like a motherfucker.
Akerfeldt's singing is pretty good, and really feminine in parts. His growl is as always, excellent.
The drums sound really great in places and also bland as shit in others, inconsistent.
