I you mute the music for most of the song one would think Mikes is like soundchecking, just stands there calm a playing with the guitar. But when muting off, well... I cant believe he can press out thouse guttural sounds as what is seems effortless and at the same time playing quite well,
This is benign and irrelevant claptrap; an utterly nugatory fusion of 70s prog and black metal that the Hot Topic kids will just gobble up. If you listen to this band, do the world a favor: buy a chain wallet with skulls on it and hang yourself.
@zwortaymon Good luck, but please be careful! It can really hurt your voice if you do it wrong. If you don't know any singing technique yet I would recommend checking the DVD "The Zen of Screaming" from Melissa Cross. I didn't pursue growling for long because I just have no talent for it at all, but the technique she teaches on "Zen of Screaming 1" is basic singing technique which everybody who sings should know.
4:54 to 6:40 is the best part of the song a classic stile of the black metal, I grew up listening this song like a child we are waiting for the next year OPETH in chile ;)
@dasDoudi when i saw the news about their concert with PoS i was like: " OH MY REALLY FUCKING GOD WHAT THE HELL, U GOT TO BE KIDDING" XD i was almost in tears, this is really something epic :)
Hey thanks everyone for so much sugestions. Through these past months that I've been listening to Opeth they became one of my most favourite bands and I'm really glad I discovered them. Now I want to support this great band by buying their CDs not downloading.
@SolSilence lol not that i play the guitar but I totally know your frustration. you want to focus in on one person etc and the editer keep going from camera to camera and never staying on one camera for more than a few seconds
Opeth is just so diverse there really is no other band that matches their musicality. In a lot of classical music such as my favorite composer, Dvorak, the songs have a familiar melody that is super catchy but not over used and all his songs blend well. I feel like Mikael is the modern Dvorak. FUCK YEAH DEATH METAL! Runner weigh.
Opeth is my favorite band, and i love everything they do. i hate to critisize, but Axe isnt playing half the stuff Lopez played. Not just fills and stuff, technical stuff that you wouldnt notice most of the time too.
I made a cover of this song (with the music) and put the original in the left speaker and my version in the right speaker. If anyone would like to check it out, just click on my name and post your impressions. My favourite Opeth song..
I need recommondations. I'm was always more into thrash, but now I'm interested in bands like Opeth. Bands that combine death, melodic, progressive..... I don't mean melodic death as in flames. Something thats not too melodic but it's not as death as Cannibal Corpse for example. It's hard to explain... Something similar to Opeth, cuase I really like this guys. I discovered them through Bloodbath. Any suggestions?
@Killer0nTh3Run Agalloch from Oregon real good they share beauty and brutality that makes me love both but opeth is still a band on its own u might even get into porcupine tree
@Killer0nTh3Run There's always Cynic and Between the Buried and Me, and Death (Cynic and Opeth are considered the godfathers of Progressive Death Metal, while Death is the "originator")
@Killer0nTh3Run If you want bands that very closely resemble Opeth's sound you should listen to In Mourning and Novembre. However, off the top of my head some progressive Death Metal bands are Atheist, Cynic, Disillusion, Death, Nocturnus, Sadist, Pestilence, Orphaned Land, Amorphis, Edge of Sanity, and I've missed a ton but it's late and I'm tired. Try those bands though, all of their sounds are different but have that same progressive feeling that I like.
@Killer0nTh3Run The closest thing that there is out there to Opeth is the Edge of Sanity. Mainly on the two 40-minute-long movie songs Crimson Part 1 and 2. Those albums combine brutal death metal with melodic, progressive clean vocal passages. Definitely check those two albums out if you haven't already, they're amazing.
There really is no other band quite like Opeth, though, ultimately...
@Killer0nTh3Run If you love the technicallity of the music, then you'll love Meshuggah, but they're a good bit heavier than Opeth. Impossible time signatures, and polyrythems. Difficult to play. Lyrically brilliant, but like I said, pretty raw. Just don't abandon Opeth! That would be a sin.
you may also enjoy katatonias second cd as it had micheal akerfeldt as the lead singer on it and you can definitly hear hes influence on the whole cd . though it is more melodic doom with death metal influences
There is no bands u can compare to opeth they are very unique but however i allways thought TooL was much like opeth not sound wise but just as progressive and unique.
@Killer0nTh3Run Katatonia have some things in common. Their old stuff is also progressive death, more slow-paced and darker, and their new stuff is melancholic progressive (sadly no more brutal vocals).
Ihsahn's solo work is also very melodic and progressive but combined with black metal, not death. Listen to the song Unhealer (featuring Mikael) and if you like it listen to the rest of the album (angL).
Tool and Porcupine Tree for equally progressive, but not death metal bands
@Killer0nTh3Run It's simple, there's no band like Opeth. But most Opeth fans also like Porcupine Tree. They're much softer than Opeth, but with the same quality. Both band's leaders are very good friends, musically influencing each other (that's why Opeth got into more progressive style with Blackwater Park and following albums, and Porcupine Tree's music has more metal elements after In Absentia). Both bands are kind of soulmates. :)
I like exactly that kind of death, Opeth is probably my favorite band. Something similar to them is hard to find, I believe impossible, but in the same range of progressive melodic yet still quite brutal death metal I can suggest Hypocrisy (try the album The Arrival, or Virus) or Dark Tranquillity (try Haven, or Character).
Also Amon Amarth (not as melodic yet just enough) and Death (co-founders of death metal, yet way more complex than Cannibal Corpse) are to my very liking.
