Opeth - Hope Leaves (Live at the Royal Albert Hall)

[adbartman2392]

GOD. DAMN. They should re-record the studio version with Fredrik's solo at the end.

[pencilpl0x]

god damn fredrik my fucking face. meeltttinngg.

[421Roger]

Frederick is amazing...

[JEA21B]

Mikael is hilarious. Seriously, he is.

[brandooon]

Axe's drums sound amazing in this video

[felphero]

lol they are playing a hole octave lower

[EddyHendrix2]

@felphero are you sure? it is just a whole tone down

[felphero]

@EddyHendrix2

*takes guitar, plays the two lead melodies versions*

holy shit you're right, i'm such a dumb ass hahaha

i suppose it's because they aren't using the capo right

damn that was horrible hahaha

[magugreech]

I just got this dvd today I am happy as hell!!!!!! ( and also i got the new that deep purple is going to play in my country) today i will really have sweet dreams!!!!!!!

[Imtiaz666]

1 person died of multiple orgasms

[pencilpl0x]

"jerk off?"

"...JUST YOU."

hahaha.

[Jalanko13]

This version sounds SO MUCH better than the studio version.

[bkuhar]

For someone so gifted musically in composition, playing and even a good easy listening voice, he can talk like a gibberishing twit

[Benawisan]

I find Mikael funnier than most comedians around

[KindredSouls]

@Benawisan haha, I know right? xD

[TheHydropsfetalis]

how many of u have fucked to an opeth song? (croud raises hand and yells ya).

how many have jerked off to an opeth song? (croud raises hand and yells YA!!!!!!!)

Opeth is SSSOOO amazing

[josealfo0]

quien fue el hijo de puta que puso (N)

[Obelix5150]

One person hasn't fucked or jerked off to Opeth music.

[Flaggius]

I fucking love Opeth <3

[goatgoesbahhhhhh]

Opeth gets better every time they do something, Mikael surrounds himself with people that augment is natural songwriting ability so well. Axe and Fredrik made this already incredible band even better, this is one of very few bands that are undoubtedly improving as the years pass, Mikael's writing gets better, and constantly more fluid musicians work in his sphere, its wonderful, my generation is blessed to grow up with bands of this caliber.

[stefania4life]

masterpiece.

[Jerkoffkid]

im so used to hearing the other DVD with the girl yelling at the start....

[CumaMason]

@Jerkoffkid

That is so annoying. Whenever I hear it, a part of me is embarrassed to be a girl. lol

[overkill54]

I don't think axe's dynamics are nearly as good as Lopez', but he is still pretty damn good

[levanah1509]

omg ... i really love mikaels voice ......

[tomkaymusic777]

Why do they not use a capo on this song any more ? Is it something to do with Mikael's voice ?

[donbehatin]

@tomkaymusic777 Inconvenient, probably... I don't know for sure. I know he sings higher than he ever has on Watershed, though.

[scrumsie]

2:22 Guy with smartphone ,later apears as crumby,shaky and shady recording uploaded on youtube.

[Masterboychris]

@scrumsie touche.

[djmarkyno1]

fredriks solo is actually unbelieveable

[AttackWithABat]

this song makes me wet :)

[CurtisSpiers]

a tone lower than on the album?

[boudzter]

@CurtisSpiers in the album version they used a capo on the 2nd fret, here they didn't use any..so basically yeah..it's a tone lower

[Waranger5]

@CurtisSpiers definitely right

[Masterboychris]

@CurtisSpiers If you've studied musical theory, it's a term called modulation.

Basically, you take the song, and play every note(for example, a whole note down), the song will still sound right, it will just be at a lower tone.

[Zajecu]

@Masterboychris it's called transposition...

[Masterboychris]

@Zajecu Transposition is a form of modulation. So yes, you are correct! =]

[Zbychoslaw]

it was a priviledge to be there!

[dasotomayor]

I love Opeth, and this band changed the way I used to view music. Their music is just godly. At the same time I have to honestly say that I dislike Mikaels guitar sound, probably because of his new guitar. Do not know if there is people out there that might agree with me. Also, his clean voice has definitely improved, and his growls are not as strong anymore, at least that is what I can hear in this dvd. Regardless of these, I will always love Opeth, ALWAYS!!!!

[EngelenVideo]

@dasotomayor I agree with everything you said!

[marianogentile]

I fucked to Opeth´s music!

[lastdayinsin3]

I love how he knows his fans think he's a god, and jokes about it lol excellent.

[IllusionaryMind8]

Anyone know whats the colour name of Mike'S PRS here?

[IcoTheBest]

One of the best concerts ever!

[TheSinndogg]

This should have been played without the capo on the album, like it is here. The album version sounded amazing enough, but without it... "fucking phenomenal" is the only way to describe it.

[SomeoneChannel]

This song brings tears to my eyes, every fucking time.

[shaaaky]

pure happiness. Mike is my personal GOD!!

[Tradaxa]

Amazing drums!

[TigerTaint]

that was one hell of a sexy solo at the end

[fotologxopethx]

El Solo es simplemente hermoso .. me hace sentir tantas emociones

[mangler2132]

good god. that solo is amazing.... I can sense alittle dimebag sound to it. really leaving me speechless

[christiannandres]

volume is too low!!this song is fantastic!!!the entire damnation is fantastic

[kirbster]

Whoa, sounds so fresh without the capo...

[summitthescale]

I love this band so much. This performance goes to show how amazing they are even in a live setting.

[ShAka951]

esta pinche cancion me facina no mamen los de opeth son la ver...jaja no ma esa cancion si me hace llorar jajaja OPETH!!!!!!!

[jaimsC]

ahh, I really like his singing on this song you can see how much he's improved, not that he was bad before but still

[bunnyoneedge]

Im sorry but I dont dream to Hope Leaves in this perf.

I did, to Mike's dreamy voice and Peter's beautiful sound

[JHM123]

Haha, Mikael Akerfeldt is a metal legend.

[dannythefreerunner]

Drumming flawless as usual.

[dannythefreerunner]

Drumming is flawless us usual. Thank you axe

[waxercrane]

(:

El sonido es mejor que el album :D

[HadoukevMoongoose]

Geatest version of the greatest song of all time

[maligno3x]

I FEEL A MUSICAL ORGASM EVERYTIME I HEAR THIS SONG!!

[islespatrick]

wtf is with the people in suits ruining the funnnn?!?!?!?

[Deadwing1411]

Geat, this sound very good! but, mmm i think that Axenrot doesn't have the sensibility that Lopez had... i mean, sometimes he doesn't fit so much in the mood of the songs. Anyway, this sounds great, and the Akesson solo is just perfect. Thanks for the upload!

[cristianrockstar]

i bought the dvd a few days ago, and I'm totally blown away!!!!

this song has a range high pitch voice, mikael took off the CAPO, and played in A minor instead of B minor...the final solo didn't liked to much, it's too much shredding for a song who needs more melody in a solo, I would prefer a Mikael's solo IMO

but still is an amazing version

[dicamillo686]

Fredrik is just incredibly fucking talented guy! Stunning performance.

[kakeselger]

That guitar solo was INCREDIBLE.

[Rabko]

Mike's voice is like wine, the older it gets, the better it sounds, stunning performance.

[dani1928]

@Rabko

couldn't agree more

[youareasheep]

@Rabko That's not really how wine works, if you must know.

[loblit05]

@youareasheep i thought it was. old wine is better, isnt it?

[Flaggius]

im gonna fucking go buy this now, OMFG! Opeth forever \m/ <3

[DanielAbbasi07]

That solo, oh my goodness...Fredrik is just brilliant

[adace1]

Thank you! More please :)

[mathisto21]

@adace1 Just buy it - it's worth every cent/penny I assure you! Got it today and have already watched both gigs twice :)

[0nl1n3n00b]

@themetalreview180

What do you mean with "poor quality"?

The picture is great for a DVD and the sound is crystal clear! <3

And Opeth perform fucking great as always...

It's definitely worth the 30 bucks. :-)

[hassandiller]

@0nl1n3n00b the second dvd is too compressed compared to the first one actually. It looks good on a regular tv but on a computer or HD tv you can see the pixels and shit. Wonderful gig anyways.

[0nl1n3n00b]

@hassandiller

I watch it always on an HDTV and of course you can see "pixels and shit". It's "only" a DVD and therefor of course no hd-quality. But for a DVD it's very good quality I think. I've seen much worse... ;-)

[hassandiller]

@0nl1n3n00b ='(

[MarBoLOL]

@themetalreview180 its 3cds and 2 dvds and really worth the money... opeth is the best band ever

[0nl1n3n00b]

if you want to skip the talking, just jump to 1:55 ;-)

[dannythefreerunner]

@0nl1n3n00b why would you skip the talking

[0nl1n3n00b]

@dannythefreerunner

I wouldn't. But you know there may be people who just want to listen to the song. ;-)

[insatyr08]

@dannythefreerunner It allows one to hear the song sooner.

[germainetsessaucisse]

@dannythefreerunner to avoid dislikes ;)

[bkuhar]

@dannythefreerunner because he sounds like a liberal twit when he does this kind of crap...a waste of his musical and singing talents, shows the whole of the person is not as refined or shiny as the musical-only side

[dannythefreerunner]

@dannythefreerunner What. See i dont care about that. I go and watch opeth gigs because of the music and the chats between songs. I think he is a great front man. But it is opinion so dont bash me. Also HERITAGE.

[Stereo1975]

@dannythefreerunner Because i dont understand english? :D
