Opeth - Face of Melinda @ Sonisphere UK 2011 2/5

[CaptainCraniumMusic]

5:58 Man, Martin Mendez's hair is so epic when he starts flapping it around...

[TheSIKKS66]

Looks like I'mgoing to be masturbating in the front of row of Download this summer. Probably.

[TFIFH]

I find this high quality.

[dziobakd]

haha I was there my fav band.

[masteropuppetz66]

Uh oh, Axe's drum kit has gotten smaller and looks like Lars'...

[masteropuppetz66]

Fap fap fap fap fap... 

[Thystonius]

The keyboard player is fucking awesome, screw all you people who want Lopez or Per back, Axe totally rocks as well.

[jcast18k]

wowwwww Comus T-Shirt!!! Prog FTW!

[dewiowen1]

Oooh, it's shaken udder milkshakes. They're damn tasty!

[W78516]

Very cool shot from the side of the stage with the smoke.

[shaaaky]

Still life is one of my favorite :D

[itlivesin]

alway a funny mother#$@!^, Love

[divdav99]

5.15, good ol' cup collectors

[fAtsElW0W]

its a pitty to see opeth performing at daytime.. they create their own dark environment though ^^

[djakew77]

Ah. Mendez and his skullet cave in . That being said. Great show. Wish I was there for it.

[cyclysm748]

5:48 weird keyboardist shoe with wooden heel! I want some!! 

[JonasOfSweden]

@cyclysm748 They look like boots :P Not too rare, I think

[TheAdam159]

One of my favourite Opeth songs. Hope its on the setlist when I see them in December!

[Lateralenima]

Is the bassist becoming bald?

[lovedarkbreathe]

@Lateralenima Seems so.

[djmarkyno1]

its ashame people these days dont recognise a talented band when they see one anymore. theres not many like opeth

[666fireface666xxx]

MILKSHAAAAAAKEEE!!!!!

[rickengothic]

Look i'm gonna tell u why, the reason why people dont like opeth cuz THEY'RE NOT OPEN MINDED HUMAN BEINGS!! If u want to be real Opeth fan u gotta understand their songs and lyrics and what it feels inside ur mind, soul and smell & taste of this beloved music!

[metalmario128]

@rickengothic

I think it's called, prog.

[luckyluke193]

crowd seems like a fucking shitty metal crowd.

when the heavy riff kicks in they're all like "WOO FINALLY A METAL RIFF" >_>

if i were in the band i'd be really pissed at them

oh and the new keyboard player seems to be kinda lame. per was so awesome D:

maybe i'll see them live in november to give him a chance to disprove me

[ThePurgatoryfire]

@luckyluke193 I know, i was there trying to enjoy the prog and some DICKS behind us kept charging through doing "ironic moshing" yelling "this is shit!" I was well pissed off. My first time listening to Opeth too, really loved it.

[luckyluke193]

@ThePurgatoryfire those dicks surely wont come to their other shows, so we can enjoy the music in peace ;)

[amevilee]

@luckyluke193 I assure you there were a lot of people there who actually appreciated this song :) It was the lightest thing I had heard all weekend, so I just stood still and took it in, as did a lot of other people :P but as soon as the metal kicked in I had but no choice to head bang :3 not all of us were douches :P

[TheAdam159]

@luckyluke193 Yeah, I love Opeth, but I hope there's not a bunch of closed minded headbangers there when I see them in December, shouting out BLACKWATER PARK and trying to mosh. I love Opeth's softer proggy stuff just as much as their metal. Heritage should sort out the men from the boys!

[luckyluke193]

@TheAdam159 They started their Heritage tour in North America a few days ago. I've seen a comment on some Opeth video on youtube (cant remember which one) who said that there was a bunch of people who kept shouting Play Blackwater Park! and when they didn't they started to shout "Slayer".

But I hope those people wont come to their European concerts. Everyone knows Heritage isn't a death metal album, and they've seen the setlist for the North American tour doesn't contain any really heavy song.

[djmarkyno1]

absolutley outstanding talent

[rapidpyre]

benighted could fit perfectly in Heritage

[FlappyMcCuddles]

White Snake? Milkshake!

[TheJoPk]

The new keyboardist is pretty gay!

[philipkeaveney777]

Every fucking video i see. Can i get this in HD. Fuck off. I went and watched this. If you didn't so what. Appreciate the fact this was uploaded and stop complaining. Hd? Shove it up your ass.

[goofed86]

Hello castle Donington lulz Mikael is awesome.

[thatguy088]

just goes to show its more the talent of the player than the quality of the instrument, mikael is using a student edition and it sounds incredible!

[enzoslashslash]

General Snus at 8:25 ... Swedes

[Fodn1]

@enzoslashslash Snus... some good shit! :)

[grantgorelay]

they have to play this more often, its such a beautiful song

[mattais21]

I'm guessing like none of the crowd knows the still life album. Shame on them.

[metalbard007]

@mattais21 its sad that majority wouldn't know any of the songs prior to Ghost Reveries :(

[mattais21]

@metalbard007 Yeah which is sad, Ghost is a good album but my favourites will always be Still life, Morningrise and My arms. Just something about them touches me haha xD

[BlindF3ith]

@mattais21 well i was at the front and have every album. but as for a lot of people in the crowd, from what i overheard most people considered slipknot the highlight of the festival. enough said

[mattais21]

@BlindF3ith That is what is stupid about this world, but people like you restore my faith in humanity, anyway Opeth are coming to Australia in December so I will be there, a lover of all Opeth. Peace.

[TheAdam159]

@mattais21 Hey which show are you going to? I'll be at the Melbourne gig. Anyone else going?

[mattais21]

@TheAdam159 Brisbane man, so keen

[amevilee]

@mattais21 I actually own that album I could see about 5 other people who knew what song it was

[pencilpl0x]

@mattais21 i did. :)

[YoLpIsBest]

@mattais21 They're Opeth fans, of course they know..

[goofed86]

Hello Castle Donington lol Mikael is fucking awesome.

[MetallicOpeth]

lovin' Mendez with his hair back

[TheSIKKS66]

One of my favourite songs by my favourite band. If you look closely you can see me masturbating in the front row. Probably.

I'd have given an arm for a longer set though...

Awesome upload!

[10Plaguesofficial]

@TheSIKKS66 your wanking arm at that =/

[ironrushscorp]

@TheSIKKS66 well they only had 50 minutes to play... so they decided to play 5 ten minute songs haha

[decliam]

Front row ftw!

[Nem33]

Wonder if Mendez is gonna get a haircut soon, or, is going to go for the skullet

[Liolar43]

I should've been there this weekend. Pff, Summer School. T__T

[john0chev]

i was there :) with a swedish flag <3

[9soad]

@john0chev

I was right beside you!

[john0chev]

@9soad AWESOME!!! :) i miss everyone, back home there's so many chavs, and no-one gives free hugs..... plus there's no OPETH!!

[orangeedo]

WOOHOO. I see me.

[PeterLupu]

I love it how the snare sounds like a bomb at 6:00 :D

[chloemairead1]

I was there. In the front. <3

[nipplash]

Thanks for posting these vids.

[glennielsen]

anyway I can get this entire show in a high quality download?

[Skidbladner]

@glennielsen It is recorded from the streaming in the website. I don't think anyone recorded this in HD, sorry. But I'd love to have it too.

[SRNF]

@Skidbladner i miss per this new guy is fine but he messes up a lot and the backup vocals are meh now. Hope per comes back

[philipkeaveney777]

@glennielsen Yeah. go to sonisphere. That's what i did....
