Opeth - The Drapery Falls

[DemonFromPerdition]

Play Skyrim while listening to Opeth. You WILL have the best time of your life!

[ASoulByondRepair]

This song just takes me to a place I can't describe.. I become one with everything and nothing.. Time and space do not exist.. Perfection..

[philip093]

It would be a shame to die without knowing the true sound of music, like Opeth, but it would be really sad to die thinking that the -muzak- that a lot of people listen to, nowadays, is the "true sound of music"..., just like Steven Wilson, and other great musicians say.

[FieldsOfSorrow87]

Thank you Mikael for giving me the orgasms the women in my life can never seem to give me

[xXxEmoMonKeYmAnxXx]

needs more opeth.......

[JamSotos]

A true masterpiece...and one of my favorites. Though could be edited differently on 1:53 and 2:09 is sounds like a swarm of angry bees somewhat annoying to my ears on that specific points ;)

[Hellcoam]

Waking up to your sound again...

[MoonlapseOpethian]

@Hellcoam ... and lapse into the ways of misery.

[bartek19952]

@JamesOnPiano you made my day. thanks. now i know how shitty my problems are.

[Aphrayd]

@bartek19952 how shitty are they?

[bartek19952]

@Aphrayd shitty as big fucking true shit.

[soul0luos]

@JamesOnPiano Yeah, I was formerly thinking pretty seriously about ordaining in Thailand as a forest monk, but am very skeptical and have no capacity for belief in the supernatural... off-grid it is! Although I guess I could be a rather sober monk that discards the nonsense and simply focuses on meditation, which is why rural Thailand seemed like a good bet - they focus almost entirely on meditation. Eh, we'll see. All the best on your journey.

[karateslife]

opeth and dream theater are just to good to be true

[Tannerhowie]

4 people fell after the rapery took place

[soul0luos]

@JamesOnPiano I really appreciate you putting that out there. That's how I feel about society EVERYDAY. I guess you just gotta do what you find important and makes you happy... at least that's the only solution I've found. The pressure under the weight of our fatalistic, commodified, disposable culture at times seems almost unbearable... to the point where I've considered going off-grid and growing my own food. How do you choose to cope? Thanks.

[19tc85]

I got that symbol tattooed on my left rib-cage.

[Helnsinki99]

@Greensword1 its actually just a big O for Opeth, the band this song is by.

[suzuki834]

@Greensword1 i dont understand whut it is u speak ?

the opeth symbol has nothing to do with coke

[portal0901]

@suzuki834 Opeth is CocaCola. End of story.

[novembre8211]

4 people are complete retards, I don't see how anyone could listen to this and not like it

[suzuki834]

MTV destroyed music people say this is garbage? u know whats garbage fucking 3rd grade poetry about shootin people and stabbin sluts with a shitty repeated 10 second beat in the backround that was made in half an bhour by some one else on a computer and u know what they make a fuck ton of money off it too

[megabattle]

3 faggots

[brandoncarrier1]

i am now a opeth fan

[sio42]

@brandoncarrier1 :D

[Winters7Roses]

Opeth is GOD.

Instrumentally of course, for all those offended...

Truly the best music to come across, I've never heard something so thought provoking and peaceful as Opeth...

[genn82]

6:10 always gives me a boner

[BassGeekJack]

Ow... too much head-banging? ...No such thing.

[ldbiggs420]

2 now

[Lasmmae]

This is one of Opeth's greatest works Right next to The Grand Conjuration, Isolation Years, And Many more...

[Madhouse255]

Opeth is one of the few bands out there with no bad albums (or songs, really). lol

[ghostyman666]

1 douche bag out there Just 1, what the fuck?

[k5lta]

wow there had to be 1 asshole out there...

[ghostyman666]

1 fuck head

[perrottafamily]

Opeth touring with Dream Theater, TOOL, Neurosis, and Iron Maiden...

Would be epic.

[flipxes]

Miserryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[hraesvelgML]

7:49- The most beautiful breakdown ever.

After his awesome beastly growls comes the peaceful guitar and very soothing gorgeous vocals.

Just...just awesome.

[ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01]

This song is pure brilliance !!

In my opion their best song.

[iambahdo]

This sont has been in my top 3 from them for like 5-6 years now

[Flaggius]

8:45, always goosebumps! Opeth is the best fuckin band ever made \m/ <3 love em so fuckin much, proud to be Swedish!

[iambahdo]

@Flaggius Yup!

[Lobones0066]

ooooooh opeth is soo fucking jamming man

[tsarinanikol]

I dig the song and all, but at the second chorus, it sounds like he says "Pull me down again, and drag me into OOOOOOOW." Which always makes me giggle.

[novembre8211]

This is just absolutely a badass song from a badass fucking band. This song is actually what got me into Opeth

[MoreTimeToKill]

@novembre8211 This the song that also got me into opeth. I saw them live 6 times and have the opeth o tattoeed on my arm.best bad ever.Nothing compares

[GRAWpcsucks216]

@MoreTimeToKill It's also my goal to get the Opeth "O." They say not to get band tattoos, but I'll be damned if I die before I'm branded by them. 

[novembre8211]

You're damn right

[jasonpiano25]

God, when he growls "Never again" I just the chills every fucking time. It's so powerful and haunting.

[footballz07]

Best band. I seriously can't explain in words how amazing these guys are. and the bass is AMAZING It goes with the song perfectly.

[exavier091]

if u guys like this, then u guys may like "hearts alive" by mastodon. it's a different style, but i love it, and i love opeth too, so you guys may like it . . . =)

[exavier091]

i just started listening to this band, they're awesome!!!!

[986710]

love the band and love their logotype !

[nhdrummer2112]

ok how about this, porcupine tree and opeth tourning with dream theater

[exavier091]

that's what you call a progressive metal orgy and a prog metal's fan's absolute dream

[xXSMC365Xx]

@nhdrummer2112 man, words can't describe how AWESOME that would be

[bibby5000]

@nhdrummer2112 that would be so good, especially if dream theater could die in their tour bus on the way!

[LamboKid69]

@nhdrummer2112 Mikael Akerfeldt, Steven Wilson, and Mike Portnoy are teaming up for an album.

[mobman47]

@LamboKid69 I heard mike was supposed to be with them on that but I read that Mikael and Steven are recording the album as we speak, but its just them. Think the album is going to be called Storm Corrosion.

[ldbiggs420]

@nhdrummer2112 gay

[luke98959895]

@nhdrummer2112 LOL that concert would last like 12 hours .

[oRapturev]

@nhdrummer2112

I would pay absurd amounts of money to be at that concert.

[cdiSPAGHETTI]

@nhdrummer2112 That wouldn't be possible, as awesomeness is combustible. Having two on stage at once is already straining the fabric of space and time, but having all three tour would cause the universe to implode from awesomeness.

[phreestylesk8r]

@nhdrummer2112 opeth and porcipine tree touring with cynic would be cooler

[nhdrummer2112]

@phreestylesk8r I don't think I've heard of Cynic, any albums I should get?

[phreestylesk8r]

@nhdrummer2112 focus, traced in air and re-traced (EP) they only have two albums rite now and an ep all are worth getting!

[IVIALJA]

@nhdrummer2112 Traced in Air is their best album. re-traced is the acoustisch EP of Traced in Air. It's nice too. Focus has got some nice songs, but the quality isn't that great

[sacredgeometry]

@nhdrummer2112 add tool and you have a gig that I would find it very hard to refuse.

[OpethAndDTRock]

@nhdrummer2112 .... oh hell ya. My 3 favorite bands.... Maybe we could have Rush as a fourth? 

[oniman13]

@OpethAndDTRock If we can only pick one fourth, I'd choose Tool over Rush.

We need to have a Progfest. Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Dream Theater, Tool, Rush, Pink Floyd, Yes(?), Symphony X, and whoever else we can get to show up.

[ThrawnTheater]

@nhdrummer2112 That would be the coolest thing ever. Don't really see it happening though, not all three together at least. Opeth and PT touring together would be the most likely, IMO.

[yogeesunshine]

@nhdrummer2112 Can you imagine these bands touring together....the concert would be like 8 hours longs lol. 10 and 20 min songs lol.

[darkmasteron]

"Pull me down again

And guide me into pain"

always gives me creeps :)

[SapirFairy]

Love this song and the hole album

[Behemothflower]

I love how the whole album of blackwater park has that signature echo sound in the background that sounds like 100 guitars buzzing like bees

[snowboardingfreak94]

It's an E-bow, ever since listening to Blackwater park, I've wanted one

[Behemothflower]

Wow, theres actually an instrument that does that? thanks man i gotta check that out now

[snowboardingfreak94]

It's not an instrument, it's a guitar accessory. You hold it up to your strings, and the magnet in it makes the string sound "that way" with infinite sustain. Its a shame that Mikael and Fredrick don't use them live.

[sergio311]

WTF who thumbed me down ? Fucking lazy fat fucks ! hit the fucking gym hahaha

[DjBlindShadows]

I got you covered, man! \m/

[skateNappreciate]

love this song, makes me appreciate the existence of the guitar and every other instrument

[sergio311]

This is the best FUCKING song for the gym hahaha

>:D

[MNWalkr]

Actually, growl here is in perfect place. My favorite Opeth song.

[XxLinkFookedZeldaxX]

Harvest is my fav...

[Mr23T]

Ahhh.... Love this song, but growl is needles here.

[DerHalbeEuro]

same opinion. i love it but the growling destroys the song

[deadpisser88]

It inhances the song.

[DjBlindShadows]

You just haven't learned to appreciate that sort of sound.

[goldenfire88]

lol wut....In my opinion, the growling blends excellently with the slower acoustic parts with the clean vocals as well as the other parts with clean vocals. However, I understand that you might not think that way and understand your opinion.

[Hanskiiiiii]

oh wow actually, the vocals are much better than the rest of their songs

i prefer songs i can understand thats all

[Hanskiiiiii]

i dont like the vocals

AT ALL

they killed themselves.

why cant they sing like in porcelain heart? its so good :'(

[Zysab]

Well you are clearly deaf. This is easily one of my favourite Opeth songs. When I saw them in Bristol last year they closed with this track and it made my night, nay, my year haha

[Hanskiiiiii]

Yes, I like this song.

I meant I don't like growling.

[Arthas43]

because the watershed album was BAD.. the blackwater park album is GOOOD... see the flaw in your logic.

[Hanskiiiiii]

Rokay then.

[Zaghuran]

WTF is wrong with you? Opeth doesn't have a bad album.

[ThrashMetalAwesome]

Opeth is AWESOME :) \m/

[briangman3]

Is this the high quality version, because I hear cracking at the beginning? Unless that how the song is supposed to sound?

[Infernape7890]

Opeth is awesome! :D

[blackmagi2]

One of the greatest songs.

[weirdretard23]

this needs more than 2800 views. seriously. its great. really unique. i love this band.

[gofamilyguy98]

I've been an avid Opeth fan for a few years now, and this is my favorite song by far. It puts all of their musical elements in one song.

[D4Kman]

Mikael is a fucking god. For Opeth's brilliance and Bloodbath's brutality.

[MandyLovesYou99]

Masterpiece.

[Rydomir]

True.. I like this song very much..

Bleak is one of my favorite to ..^^

[StealerAG]

Pay attention to the bass line!

Awesome.

Opeth,Opeth...Oh Opeth,How much do I love you?!?

[PresidentOfJelybeans]

One of their best songs, for sure

[Mourningpalace27]

just saw this song live last night amazing

[Rydomir]

damnn.. life? ur a lucky man..

where did you see them?

[Firecrotch6979]

yeah man i saw them on Tuesday and we chanted until they came back out and played this song haha

[Darchrovv]

@Mourningpalace27 just seein' it isnt enough. neither hearin it. you must feel...

[jorisiiii]

pwnage

[Rydomir]

U like it? ;)

[jorisiiii]

Nobody can dislike opeth, PERIOD!

[Aliveat9Deadby5]

haha as much as i personally agree, theres just way too much depth and complexity with opeth's music for alot of ppl to appreciate, or even like.

once again, because i feel the need to repeat, i agree with your implied statement 100% haha

[emptycookiejar1]

@jorisiiii

Unfortunately, I know somebody who does.

It makes me sad.

[MysteriousBrownEyes1]

@jorisiiii (Exept 4 people.)
