Totally into metal recently - buying and listening to a shitload of new (for me) stuff; such as :
ISIS - Oceanic - Heavy as shit. OPETH - Blackwater Park - Death Metal combined with Queensryche (whom I fucking love on Empire)
JESU - JESU - My favorite right now. Godflesh beauty Red Sparowes - At the Soundless Dawn - It's Alright Atheist - Unquestionable Presence -Old School technical DM; it's real good.
Pelican - Untitled - Heavy shit. One of my current favs. Meshuggah - I - I like it.

No - all I have is "Untitled" now. I thought I'd just get their new album which contains said single (minus flute solo from what I've heard) and skip it. Should I reconsider?

Yes, it was metal that really got me interested in music to begin with. Metallica's "Black Album" was released during the summer between my 7th and 8th grade years. My buddy won the last pair of tickets to see there show in Atlanta and I went with him. GREAT seats - life-transforing show. I was instantly a bass player and a few months later my parents bought me a Fender bass rig. I still have that bass and it's my primary instrument.
I gravitate twords extremes so I was soon in my Gifted/Talented class playing for my classmates a tape of Napalm Death's "Scum" on a little classroom tape recorder and debating (positively) if it was or was not music and if it had any worth. I still remember that shit.

Does Dream Theater count as metal? if so, then I love metal.

Opeth is prog as shit -I like it though - somehow it really works for me. I have dial-up. I suck fucking cock and like it. (Not really. Pussy tastes good.)

No - I love, I mean I fucking LOVE, early SWANS though. I got the Relapse Records DVD of their Contamination Festival from 2003 amd the Neurosis set is sweet. I 've had one of the earliest Neurosis albums for years though (the one with the burning wicker man on the cover - Souls at Zero).

Yeah - it's all "Blearggggg" on second and all "Silent Lucidity" the next. It's cool though.

im not a fan of the singing, or some of the melodies, but I have to give the band credit for being some of the most talented musicians ever. you should too.
