Opeth Coil TV4 w Nathalie Lorichs (HD version)

[MarianOctavarium]

Nathalie is Axe´s girlfriend. truestory, god akerfeldt said it.

[Rstar095]

this is beautiful

[MsZiziAngel]

love this song by opeth!!!!! check out our cover just type in youtube.com then add /watch?v=835x02SNh9Q

[Modarqq2]

I have a hard time calling this death metal.

[zalmanusa]

@Modarqq2 They just stated that the band often is associated with Death Metal, but that they were going to play something softer.

[Naaga88]

@Modarqq2 I have a hard time giving a fuck what genre it is . It's Opeth, 'nuff said.

[alexsmith481]

i remember buying the album the day it came out and first listening to this song. its nice and all but i was a bit worried that the album would be shit.......then i listened to the rest of it and came to realise that this is one of the best opening to a metal album ive ever listened to

[Stulsofner]

it sounds slightly faster than in the recording. still great though.

[DividedWeFall666]

when i get out of here, when i leave you behind

i found that the years passed us by

\m/

[underscoreisnotvalid]

mikael has scary shark eyes

[rockboris666]

Lorichs and Axenrot are really friendly, I hung out with them at a rock club in Stockholm for one night, screaming along to Alice in Chains and what not, she even bought me a beer, good times, good times!

[Dexterprog]

@rockboris666 and you didn't hit on her?

[rockboris666]

@Dexterprog Would've been smooth considering she's Axenrot's girlfriend, amirite? ;D

[ravenouscolonelhart]

Love to Nathalie Lorichs, Scandinavia in general, and of course Opeth.

[izzyalistair]

I think that Mikael's voice sounds better than the gal singing with him...but that's just me.

[stoneddemonicpirate]

These two should make babies, imagine how fucking awesome they would sing.

[parrottfamily3]

seriously who the hell dislikes this? my parents even like this and they are in their 50's!

[iwasfrozentodaay]

The male host is such an embaressement, his thoughts and prejudices shines through all too well. There's another clip I saw of him when there's this reporter talking about a book containing forbidden love/gay content, I don't really remember.. It's a blast to watch that guy however.

[iwasfrozentodaay]

Hell of a voice.

[iwasfrozentodaay]

@iwasfrozentodaay Both of em.

[caroometal]

Their face is like :pokerface: when they introduce them...

So sad :(

[iNoisyTribe]

I love this side from Opeth, is definitely the kind of band that deserve to be worldwide known.

[sleepwalker2112]

I don't understand what the girl says at the beginning but you can just tell she's looking down on it... You have to look down on metal, or at least talk about it with a mocking smile, if you want to avoid being judged by the public, right? Just like kids have to say bad things about rejects in elementary school to stay on the ''good side''. Correct me if I'm wrong... but if this girl is actually doing just that, she can shove her personnal CD collection up her ass... Especially the box sets.

[DoubleLPD]

I enjoy it a lot, I just wish he did it slower live like on the album. I saw them live in October, I love Opeth.

[melancio]

what an absurdly great video, I was hipnotized from beginning to end!



[Sadborker]

pause @ 2:00



[whatsinmadrid]

@Sadborker ahhhh yeah. time for bj.

[MorgoSargas]

It was pretty much a waste of time for Legolas to sit behind the drums just for a few slaps on ride/crash/hat/whatever.

[ToranK]

Metal is art. No doubt about the fact the members of the top bands are great musicians.

[thedeadserv]

lol, why does he always rush the songs live?

[nikitofin]

0:25 why...fffffffff

[Thirdeye386]

0:18 "coil...... scrotum...."

[meryuin]

@Thirdeye386 "varsågoda" which means "here you are" in swedish

[abhijithtk]

No one seems to be complaining about the close up on Nathalie :)

[AsterVK]

Mike took speed during the intro!

[parrottfamily3]

whats wrong w the camera guy????

[ucanleaveurHATEon]

are the tv hosts making fun of the band?, seems like it..like if because it´s a metal band it´s supossed to be ridiculous or something

[mjonas10]

@ucanleaveurHATEon They're not explicitly making fun of it, but they're clearly awkward about it and they clearly don't get it. They also go on about how these songs are "special versions", even though they're perfectly normal songs for Opeth.

[Destructerator]

hnnnng, swedish women

[EntropiaMusic]

This song must be called... "Ode to facial hair"

[BrainlessEinstein334]

@EntropiaMusic

[memogarp]

@EntropiaMusic HAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!! EPIC! 

[guitarwizard9494]

2:35 .....Spot 

[xero1217]

man, the camera work in this atrocious. awkward cut-off close-ups are NOT as awesome as they seem to think.

[purplewalnut89]

get the bitch out of here just leave mikael to sing this himself :)

[ZachMetalAsFuck]

she fucked up, her first line , supposed to be wen you get out of here .. way to fuck everything up!

lol totally jk, bout to see opeth at the end of the month it would be sooo awesome if this chick came out to sing this song with em live!

[bladeofsarrow]

Her eyes are really pretty XD

[Vlad31]

camera man fucked it up

[sanderfo]

@Vlad31 no, it's supposed to be that way

[BenjaminProd]

I like how Nathalie is trying to be all sensitive, and she is more out of tune than Mikael is, and he's just going at it :p.

[3mptyLab]

What the fuck are they saying? I do not understand a single word :D

[lmmdgt]

love this



[hashibatune]

Hearing this... maybe they just recorded Watershed live and slowed it down lol

[Blutbuche]

Yeah, 1 3 3 7 likes! Opeth is so f00cking LEET!!!:)

[lubbermans]

Sad, that he plays the song too quick, it's just a beautifull song!!

[feedthemonkey83]

This version is faster then the studio version.

[mayadome666]

jeesus this girl can sing:-)

[Skoshtwo]

@mayadome666 Don't you see the moustache?

[BrainlessEinstein334]

i cant get it!!! why the camera is focussing singers in parts??? eyes, nose, left eye, right one, teeth, nails!!!!

[essengeebee]

Haha. The woman at the beginning says "mettle" just like Mikael.

[freddyvonmetal]

haha allra hårdastae.det va lite roligt :P

[ruiolas]

is it me or they played too fast?

[jekyll1776]

@ruiolas Yea its a little fast to me too.

[q8kwtq8]

This song is fuck'n cool!

[RubberRipOffGang]

you know shes the drummer Martin's girlfriend

[Soilwar]

Mikael is so nervous doing this! lol

[c0p13dn4m3]

What the fuck is that cameraman doing? 

[EvigDoom]

so sincere...

[maximuk82]

her voice is amazing...

[Utsha7s3v3n7]

@maximuk82

That's a huge understatement.

[biirwald]

Utan tvivel ett utav världens bästa band.



[666fireface666xxx]

funny if the rest of the band walked in and carried on with heir apparent...those presenters would cry :p

[Wangerusmaximus]

@666fireface666xxx Hahahaha, too right dude!

[Mythification0]

Martin Axenrot was clearly the best in this song :)

[strangejonesbitch]

is that a shure beta mic hes usin there???

[geetarz8279]

@strangejonesbitch nah. its a shure sm58

[underscoreisnotvalid]

@geetarz8279 nah im pretty sure its a shure beta mic

[Victimized666]

@strangejonesbitch yep... beta 58

[tj68chevy]

opeth best band period

[Dudeatrix]

the chicks a babe

[ZZDC]

Completely amazing. In it's complete sense. Amazing.

[kittenkoma]

3:08 how long has she been in Opeth?

[Blast8Bits]

@kittenkoma

How long? She was invited to record this song for Watershed (2008). She's the Martin Axenrot's, the drummer, girlfriend. She's not a member of Opeth.

[kittenkoma]

@Blast8Bits Sorry . Think we're lost in translation here. I was being ironic and was asking who the black girl at the very end was. She's not a member of Opeth but appears very briefly. This is not a negative to the bands talent nor their politics of non-whites in the band. I just thought it would be funny. Please folrgive me!

[blizzardtheory]

morning tv show? hmm, sweden has midnight sun, probably that explains a band like opeth there. anyway, i'd like ANY tv show where i could watch something like.. lucky people, tv , in my country, is useless for metal fans, or even for people with some brains..

[thedamondude]

he zoomed in so much you can see through her make up.

[fabioankov]

One of Opeth's most beautiful and evocative songs

[Tombearspaw]

thats one gorgeous eye on 2:20 XD

[fi1ip]

angel @ 2:00

[KevinPatrickCarey]

why do they zoom in on parts of faces

[illidankratos]

@KevinPatrickCarey  the camera man is a porn/director

[PennyDreadful1]

@illidankratos What... That better not be a joke on us swedes. Geez we made one or two movies way back and people still stereotype us.

[LightHeartuk]

was this on at 9:25 in the morning?!

[PoVerslaWe]

@LightHeartuk yes on the show nyhetsmorgon lördag (newsmorning saturday)

[dirtpipedan]

wheres the bassist?

[Gegarf]

All I have to say after watching this is: Moustache.

[Drhodin]

@Gegarf

I would like to add: Eyebrows.

The cameraman from hell is working on TV4

[cubbykovu666]

I agree there sots of HALF A FACE and a quarter of a face and up people nostrils and chins Bloody awful

[meryuin]

@Gegarf I moustache you a question but I'll shave it for later

[421Roger]

fans, any of you watching this, and any of you who are "true opeth fan's" know that this song is totally cuuuuuut to shit because of the TV promotion, they have no 3 min songs...and you all know it...quit being upset, click on a better opeth link, and relax =)

[stfanani]

@421Roger last time i checked, coil clocked in at 3:11 on my hard copy of the album, in fact they have a few songs that dont even reach the 4 minute mark. Requiem even goes for only 1 min and 10 sec.

[zamg0d1]

@421Roger "Coil" is true only 3:10 long... -__-" I have the special edition of Watershed and there it's 3:10 long

[fig00r]

@421Roger Dude, the song isn't cut. Also, Opeth has several songs shorter than 3 minutes, like Patterns In The Ivy, For Absent Friends, Madrigal, and others that are way shorter than even 5 minutes. Coil is 3.27 long on the album version.

[crankyyoldman]

Love the song, but dislike the use of the keyboard here, it sounds artificial and tacky. Also Mikael's lyric writing is a bit iffy sometimes, i mean "field of sorrow" and "ocean of sorrow" (Burden)? He can do better than that, come on

[username102030405]

@crankyyoldman It would sound extremely empty without they keys...its pretty hard to just get a string ensemble out of nowhere for a 3 minutes performance...know what you mean though.

[crankyyoldman]

Love the song, but i dislike how the keyboard is used here, it sounds naff and artificial. Also i dislike Mikael's lyrics sometimes, i mean "fields of sorrow" and "ocean of sorrow" (Burden) just sounds so naff

[iHateBeingViet]

Is it just me or did Mikael play the song a little fast in the beginning?

[CMunkie007]

Mikael has become my singing god. A great clean voice and the most brutal growls? Yeah, singing god for sure.

[Siege900]

I hope she comes back on Heritage, I love this combination.

[Leonhart231]

I have a *little* knowledge of the language. I think she introduced Opeth as a death metal band, but she didn't mention this song, just the band's genre in general.

[pitchshiftergs]

@salkkarisekoilija did someone claim this was death metal or are you just showing the world how ignorant you are? which one is it, tell us, please, tell us!

[muntgonefishin]

@pitchshiftergs the TV host said "death metal" to introduce the band

[pitchshiftergs]

@muntgonefishin did she say a death metal song for sure? maybe she said death metal band? or maybe even 'a death metal singer'? I do not understand that language at all.

[JCaroline9]

I didn't knew Nathalie Lorichs before this song.

I loved her voice. Get perfect, combined with Åkerfeldt's voice.

[Thirdeye386]

i bet that camera man just came back from Amsterdam...

[Mephisto2913]

She's pretty :)

She's got a nice voice too, and of course Opeth is the fucking greatest

[Killensuen]

hyppie song

[Thirdeye386]

@Killensuen hippie song.... really...? you obviously don't know much about hippie songs.

[DarkysLPs]

Someone please kill that smoke machine and it's pfffft noises.

[EatAcidd]

Beautiful

[TheBuzzsawJack]

6 Faggots disliked the GODS OF METAL ?!!!!! They will be punished...!

[wowla1]

"duch metal"

lolz

[johnz70]

Such a beautiful song with some great guitar work,.

[Molotok666]

Zoom Out, stupid cameraman

[Virgilivs87]

mickael lips make me so wet

[FullUser]

this song have a only thing wrong... is too short

[Frostwolves]

@FullUser this song is meant for infinity looping that's why it's short.

[PowerRushFlame]

@FullUser I think that's the best par of it, I cant imagine this song being longer, it is perfect this way.

[kyletheenigma]

Personally, I think the lighting and camera angles fit the mood of this song perfectly... It's so intimate... sensual... Mysterious even. The close-ups suit it perfectly.

[Dizzyman888]

What a beast of a 12 string!

[EnragedSephiroth]

Chill Mikael. You're a sexy beast. Hahaha! XD

[onaga510]

lol, I like how they introduced them as a death metal band and then right after they played a very not death metal song. Amazing non-the-less.

[GeorgeBennett92]

You can tell he's a bit nervous from how fast he plays the beginning part. It's brilliant nonetheless.

[EpiDemic117]

OMG it's the pringles man!!!

[CannibalCorpse909]

2:30. Nice pimple close up cameraman. Fuckin idiot. lol

[Arpearpearpe]

God damn this shit is good

[ew913]

EXTREME CLOSEUP! 

[Krondelo]

dang I thought she sounded hot! but I didn't know she actually was.

[WIRN]

Opeth should do more with Nathalie Lorichs, it really sounds great!

[austinej]

@WIRN I heard shes the "new drummers" girlfriend.

[Killdo2112]

@austinej Good for him. Not only is he a better drummer than me, he also has a hot girlfriend. I'm jealous.

[xXxAreweherexXx]

Oh my God... Her voice is celestial...

[firesquare16]

That would be cool for Opeth to just randomly show up and perform at a morning TV show.

[amevilee]

Axe you lucky son of a.....

[DunkleFlugel]

Mikael is one of those man who become so beautiful when they sing...

[wolfmoon631]

Awesome

[supremebeing87]

That's Axe's Woman! :D

[Chaanee]

Opeth are prog metal normally. 

[stonerbacon]

i want to bang the anchor-woman

[yar13ik]

Perfect

[killercour]

god i hate the presenters they had such a patrionising looking on there face befor the song even started. but then they heard it and there minds exploded.

[demorez5]

i'd like to live in country where bands like opeth are performing on morning tv shows...

[Tubember]

@demorez5 To Sweden, brother!

[vegetassjjjj]

@demorez5

pls tell me where u live , i wanna come there too:D

[ickerolig]

8======D

[otzoz]

Great performance from a great band ... looking forward to the new material Opeth :D

[shawndw1000]

this was on live TV in Sweden. The camera work is kinda fucked up..but that's prob how they do it in Sweden.

[AngelOfDeath1897]

just noticed.. Mikael really looks like Tim Burton =P

[WelcomeToZomboCom]

song seems super fast....

[Alexandre220777]

I can't help myself but having a tear running down my cheek when i hear the voice of Nathalie Lorichs :(

[jfloyd1879]

Only if good music like this would be aired on television in America...

[ALWAYSTHINK4YOURSELF]

Best thing since ABBA.

[kornrule12]

Pause at 0:21

[1ManArmyOfDisease]

why is axenrot and mendez set up? axe just hits the ride and mendez doesnt do shit.

[S1eipnir]

@1ManArmyOfDisease

Yeah, because you sure can't hear a bass come in at the one minute mark.
