Yeah, that PT could go either way. But, they've definitely added the heavier element due to Steve Wilson's love of really, really good Death Metal (Morbid Angel, Opeth and Death). I've included it as I dig it, not as much as Deadwing, but it's still better than 99.9% of what gets radio play. I've also included God Is An Astronaut which really isn't that "heavy" (a relative term which is why I used it) either. I just dig good music in general whether it be death metal, stoner/doom, country (Cash, Hank Williams and not that new shlte), jazz or whatever.
