[RobboElRobbo]

Geez that's and unfortunate haircut at 4:13

[LyricsArFun]

[Rs0F2p0Helpguides]

@LyricsArFun 2006

[becauseican66]

"the blowjob scene or the anal scene" aahaha

[neonpeach0420]

fuck yeah !

[Thystonius]

I wonder how Opeth will play all their songs without Per... possibly going to recruit another keyboard player?

[sillymonkey829]

Now everybody in the computer lab at my school is looking at me like I'm crazy because I just sustained an E note for over 12 minutes. XD

[nanoplayer86]

Mikael- ... is this the blowjob scene or the anal scene?

Crowd- Yeahhhhhhhh!

[nanoplayer86]

Mikael - ... is this the blowjob scene or the anal scene?

Crowd- yeahhhhhhh!

[jammoose]

The melody that Per is playing at the start of the "porn music" sounds so similar to No Quarter by Led Zeppelin

[MrSchtuff]

@jammoose it sure is. just a little modified...

[Friiiiick]

@jammoose I KNEW I couldn't have been the only person to notice that.

[proximity1620]

THAT BASSIST GETS THE FUCK DOWN

[ghostyman666]

well...Mr. Ego-maniac.

[CrackeTheSkull]

@ghostyman666 Gods have the right to be cocky...

[ghostyman666]

@CrackeTheSkull I know, I was just joking. Opeth kicks ass.

[opethinchains]

BTW, on mikes shirt, is that vlad the impaler, or rasputin, perhaps?

[craig4fsu]

@opethinchains Vlad

[opethinchains]

best singer/songwriter/guitarist and band on the face of the earth. hands down. i hurt my neck headbanging to the last half of this song everytime. lol. its been that way since i acquired the blackwater park record years ago. if lopez were the drummer, this would be the best lineup. i miss peter and lopez so fuckin much!!!!!!! although axenrot is fuckin brilliant. especially with bloodbath. HAIL OPETH, THE MOST INFLUENTIAL MUSICAL ALLIANCE I'VE EVER HEARD!!!!!!!

[SGTSHOOTnMISS]

I think that this is the real version of a Dethklok (cartoon series) concert.

I would sign a death waver for Opeth

[BlackSymphony93]

FANTASTIC

[nmillwater33]

bubba smith is a sexy beast

[XxboVodxX]

i just gotta learn how to growl like that :O

[suspensiondude]

[ucantstopmeee]

[futschikadda]

"we have to play this song , because it feels ....right"

[frysmaktoff]

"But everything for METUULL.."

[0Whatsername0]

[ironrushscorp]

[Bane2100]

[alfalex38]

[tailgunner89]

Moonchild yea

[CrazySystemFan]

[MetalIsTheRealMusic]

4:51 that's definetly the anal scene

[islespatrick]

it's hard to "headbang" when it is split up in 2 parts

[hjeb1986]

well is a pretty long song, put on the album or buy the dvd you wont regreat it

[Miskatakeable]

Mendez's basslines fuck yeaaa

[DivisonOnFire]

Opeth consists of Gods amongst mere mortals.

[xAsThePalacesBurnx]

'Quit playing that fucking ride cymbal' lmao

[penaranda1122]

1 idiot missed the (Y) xD

[Khrinx]

He's not saying his own name, is he....?

[Ataborman]

@Khrinx Nope. He says "Bubba Smith".

His name is Mikael Åkerfeldt.

[Khrinx]

@Ataborman So.. Who is "Bubba Smith"? Like.. His nickname, or is he just joking around?

[Ataborman]

@Khrinx He's just joking around. Bubba Smith is an american football-player and actor.

[80smetalchild]

ahhahahahah porn music! id say the blowjob seen!!!!

[k5lta]

SUSPENSE!!!!!!!!

now that was power!!

[myuvalm]

lol not o loud.....XD

[Chinfrimm]

Isn't the "mellow, porn music" Led Zepp's "No Quarter"? Or something like it.

[UnaVidenteCiega]

hehe i looooooooooooooove this guys!!!

[LazarusDarkwood]

Anyone realise that Bubba Smith is the guy that plays Hightower from police academy? haha

[RetroRifleGuitarist2]

theres something about opeth that makes me feel like most bands can't make you feel ...

[o0Jelly0o]

Not only is he a supremely talented musician and brilliant songwriter, he's funny too. Some people have it all.

[orimaz2006]

Baba Smith... that was'nt loud o.o

[TheLastBaron16]

I think i'm in love with Mikael... and i'm a guy! Haha. He's so cool

[EnriquePage91]

@TheLastBaron16

Crack In The Skye? Beautiful album!

[TheLastBaron16]

@EnriquePage91 Indeed it is my friend, indeed it is.

[ouimadame]

I'm seeing the sucking anniversary show this evening! It will kick my ass!

[EnriquePage91]

Wow what a beautiful song; no wonder why Blackwater Park and Ghost Reveries are their best albums :)

I fucking love the band introduction, it's sooo groovy

[MALSIV]

I think Blackwater Park and Deliverance was their best. Ghost Reveries was awesome but I didnt get that epic feeling that I did on BP and Deliverance.

[EnriquePage91]

@MALSIV

Yeah I guess everyone has their own style... I find GR to be amazing because I'm more into prog, than death metal... but I love Opeth sooo much :)

[elkrloevh]

Blackwater Park the best album of Opeth!!

Yeah

[CaIIMeDude]

Definately once in a life time. Or should I say live time? xD

[Deadwing1411]

"thats good..not too louder" haha

[CaptainKrys]

What wouldn't I give to be there...

[mstudiosorg]

Those last riffs in Blackwater Park might very well be the greatest thing my ears will ever hear.

[BandTuxXedo]

Hell yeah!

[kwrkrlz]

Insane!

[legitaly]

If I had to listen to the band intro-groove for the rest of my life, I'd totally be okay with that. Mmmmm hmmmm.

[AdeBfmv]

Everything for met-hulll!

[SumerianDaemonFC]

My favourite Opeth song EVER!!!!!

The sun sets forever over blackwater park...

[cyrrusdavirus2]

Certainly mine too. That last line gives me shivers.

[RichBond75]

Best ending to a song ever.

[anzotool]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!

[qazahmed]

SICK....this so fucking awesome!

[applexxcore]

it just... feels... right.

[2Pac515]

shit i meant 1:18

[2Pac515]

drum roll at 1:58 is fucking sick

[Unrix]

haha! blowjob scene or the anal scene!!! epic!! :P

Opeth For Life!!

[darkest1hourxx]

aahah "time for....porn...music"

[TheRedheadSexiness]

@darkest1hourxx hahahaha freaking awesome

[darkest1hourxx]

*sigh*...of only you knew the brilliance of mikael akerfeldt

[Szartard]

Everything for metal!

[Progmandrake]

Everything for metal! >:o

[nicwoodhouse]

anyone know what pedals they use live?

[Jakedunc]

Here, probably Boss GT-8. They always use Boss GT's.

[nicwoodhouse]

cool i have one of those. i wish i knew there settings haha that would be sweet

[MaartenDeSchepper]

Those are boss GT6's. "The gold ones". GT8's are black...

Regards.

[Chadorok]

@nicwoodhouse Mikael uses Boss GT10

[megadave91megadave91]

also I beat him several times at badminton..

[TheOrangeFondler]

"...Hey."

[000MidnightSun]

i would kill to see them play no quarter

[Renishlup]

Love how he pronounces the swedish names swedishly ^^

[yuppiroad]

That's because they're swedish.

[Renishlup]

Yeah I know, so am I :P

[daryleddy]

listen closely at 0:33..... "Moonchild" by Iron Maiden!

[jmann114]

hahaha "when i say... hey, the drummer... axe, will quit playing that fucking ride cymbal"

[trongs01]

does anybody notice this? i think per looks a bit like prof. snape.

[tremonti1234]

the best growl i ve ever heard....opeth for life...

[scylla019]

haha mikael introduces himself as bubba smith lols.

" and... sexy beast "

[nightmarebitch000]

mikael is so fucking adorable especially when he messes around like this.

in my opinion a very charismatic frontman and he probably doesnt even realize it.

nice vid!

[Jgresko]

ok, so, Mikael says that Axe has split personality..at about 8:10...

so take a look at right when they put the camera on Axe @ 8:22 , at first, he has kind of a blank/mean look in his face, as he ever so slightly shakes his head.

Then, he bows his head down, and lifts his head and seems to be semi-smiling and enjoying himself.

Could he have been in his evil split personality twin, "eric" mode right there, then bowed his head to bring the normal Axe back? lol i watched this like 10 times.

[BlackOsker]

*He's kind of pretty and looks like Legolas"

hilarious xD

[amaltoadie]

Also, it sounds like Per is playing No Quarter at the beginning

[SynthSorcery]

I know!! Doesn't it? The Mellotron sound is timeless.

[psychostew911]

haha yea by Led Zeppelin right?

[amaltoadie]

Yep ^^

[amaltoadie]

EVERYTHING FOR METLLLLL ahahaha Mikael is my fucking hero

[quistesebaceo]

the legend of MONTEVIDEO URUGUAY! MARTIN MENDEZ...

[GRAWpcsucks216]

Porn music!

[THAToGUITARoGUY]

these guys are fucking tight

[StealerAG]

SOLSTIIIIIIIIICEEEEE - *awesome riff

[howlingsin]

this is music to me, my friend

[roflhansing]

when i saw them yesterday, mikael introduced axe with "on the drums....no, its not legolas. you know, the gay guy from those fantasy movies..." i laughed so hard.

[shotguncure2]

The riff at 1:42 = time to change my pants

[buddhastalin]

best riff ever ever ever

[BlackRoseImmortal]

"everything for metal"

[n3t0az]

the best creation of opeth including hope leaves :)

i loveee theeemmm x)

[Spic172]

is this the bj scene or the anal scene

[ToleinBarlog]

just for the record.. it's both :P

[landofrock]

4:10 that intro sounds like No Quarter by Led Zeppelin.

Opeth makes me have multiple orgasms.

This is the shit

[EnriquePage91]

DAAMN I HAD THE SAME IMPRESSION FOR AGES MAN, I love the band introduction :)

[Holskey777]

I am the Drummers twin Eric

[KajidaKitsune]

Bubba Smith... Haha.

[heartshore]

the best part climax of the song yeah \\m//

[Wilhelmsavy]

this is what its gunna sound like on my way to hell :D

[Beecels]

rofl bubba smith? wtf!?

Mikael is so fucking awesome

[orestis491993]

this is called "encore" and bands always do such things ...

[lemonshank]

A lot of the bands I've seen just leave and come back even if no one is asking them to.

[buddhastalin]

TOO AWESOME!

[Rabko]

I Cum

[Dwc6]

Haha

[IloveAlexisBledel689]

''And... sexy beast...'' HAHAHAH Mikael is awesome! XD

[E5150]

bubba smith is my favourite frontman.

[warmachine718]

Blowjob scene or Anal scene? haha, Mikael's as mad as a badger!

[Escapez26]

Mikael reminds me of ALF (remember that funny hairy creature?) with this sarcastic sense of humour... and face expression;D

[Pitjantjatjara]

Blackwater Park was the first Opeth song I've ever listened and it's one of the bests. Incredible performance. I really love the way Per headbangs

[uberdeathmetal]

evriting for metölll

[DizzleShizzle3]

that jam is the grooviest thing I've ever heard.

I can't help but smile.

[METAL10523]

gosh when i hear this song i seriously wanna touch myself... :P

[LeadersCome]

Bulacka waaat-uuhhh Paaaaaaak!

easily the best moment of all of Opeths CDs

[shagrath831]

kudos to you bubba

[psyshock918]

hahahahaha porn music

[JohnW92]

bubba smith?

[fnglert]

Everything for metullll ! \m/

[pwertogalero]

porn music lol

[TheBrownThing6]

I just LOVE the way Mendez heabangs from side to side. It looks AWESOME!! :D

[neslock]

I love that too, but I saw them three times this year, and I don't think he does that anymore since he cut his hair :(

[TheBrownThing6]

Hehe I guess you're way ahead of me then :P

But why on Earth would he cut his hair, it was so amazing :0 Ah well, they still rock anyway \m/

[neslock]

Maybe he got it tangled in the tuning pegs one too many times...

[arujnem]

well his from Uruquay...so i guess he wants to look more from there since i now a bunch of Argentinians with that same hair style...which is a country really close to there...

he's amazing at bass and his Latin...like me (im not so great at bass but im training)

anyways i love opeth...and thats porn music...

[Sargatha]

I think I just wet my pants.

[therealmonkmaster]

Haha, I love Per's headbang at 1:20 (behind Mikael)

bubba smith? who?
