  • Who's the fat guy?

  • this was one of the first videos of this song before the album came out :D amazing shit

  • I LOVE the riff from around 2:00 onward! >=O

  • Mikael Akerfeldt is AMAZING!!

  • Epic! More people need to listen to this music and understand just how clever it is.

  • It is an unbelievable growl! Fuckin awesome!

  • i dream of seeing this performance live, in my wildest dreams!!

    i would personally fellate a smurf 3 times a day, if they'd requested that for coming to play in germany!!

  • fuck ! This is incredible ! :D AWESOME

  • this is like deliverance par 2. One of the best songs ever !!!

  • They're more prog than death

  • they have awesome tone

  • this isnt death o progr or technical metal

    it's just opeth

  • absolutely !

  • This is undoubtedly one of the greatest songs ever written by one of the greatest musical groups of all time.

  • worst audience ever

  • audience is fuckin annoying

  • This is definatley their most brutal song. This showes how fierce Opeth can be at times

  • The Gods of Death Metal.

    :D

  • then the question is....: are they Death Metal?

    ^^

  • excellent video! thanks!!! Heir apparent is the best track in watershed, I agree!!!! is orgasmic :D

  • This is the best song on Watershed, Mikael's vocals are sick

  • venga, esta rola y the lotus eater son lo mejor del watershed

  • They opened their show with this song a few months back. Man, the piano part starting at 0:10 brought tears to my eyes. literally! THAT was a fucking kick ass show.

    HAIL OPETH \m/

  • El mejor tema del ultimo disco!!

  • Awesome!! No more Laney amps?!

  • this song is like my ears having an orgasm

  • Our body a vehicle for him just the same!!!! (absolutely going crazy \m/-_-\m/)

    Åkesson OWNED with that solo

  • Fuck yes morbid angel shirt :) Mike from opeth wearing a morbid angel shirt is kind of like lesbian sex...i suppose.

  • He was wearing a shirt with a topless arnie from predator when i saw them in Bristol a couple of weeks ago. Was epic.

  • my favorite song from watershed... oh shit... no, wait! all songs from this album are my favorites HAHAHAHA!

  • huh. where have the laney amps gone!?

  • Yeah Watersheds ace, blackwater park is my tipple tho

  • fuck you Cptkirkati.

  • Great song, great album. Watershed ;)

  • Hey, anyone know what color PRS Mike is using here, I think it's the same as the cover shot for decibel....

  • He is. It was custom built for him by PRS.

  • dam to many voices durring the silence at the begining,

  • Fuck yes. This is such a perfect rendition of this song.

  • Comment removed

  • nice to see that they have a true lead player now, no offence to mike(my fav musician of all time) but fredik can really play those hard solos and it really shows on watershed. i like lopez on all of the other opeth albums but i really think axe is a great fit for watershed. and DAM thats my fav album i think ever!

  • Damn straight, on all those counts!

  • opeth has driven dreamtheater off the progressive metal throne... although i am a huge fan of both.

  • i agree, accept i never liked dream theater

  • excellent song.. the gods of progressive death metal..

    I'm going to see em in san francisco a month from today

  • I mean, band**

  • Is there any better band than Opeth out there? I mean... this band IS prog metal. That's all there is to it.

  • at the gates and amon amarth. thats it tho. these guys are so unique.

  • yes, there is - check Meshuggah :-) that's PROG metal

  • Yeah I have to agree with you there, I am a big Meshuggah fan as well. I only own ObZen but I plan on getting Nothing and Catch 33 eventually. I have to say Opeth's diversity outshines Meshuggah slightly though :D

    Something about those Swede bands that gets me I guess :)

  • I love this album. So much darker and eviler than their other recent albums. Thats another great thing about Opeth, how each album has a different character.

  • So much darker? LOL! Have you even heard the older albums?

  • yer. Compare this to still life or even my arms your hearse. Everything about watershed is eviler. Blackwater park is dark as well but i said RECENT albums. how on earth can you even call ghost reveries dark? its a great album but not dark at all. newayz that my opinion, why does it bother you?

  • thank you for sharing this wonderful music with us! i love opeth since the first album and that will never change!

  • no, opeth should never be on guitar hero. Ive came to hate almost every band that goes on guitar hero.

    DONT PUT THIS KICK ASS BAND ON GUITAR HERO!

    You would get all the emo faggots going. "LOL I LOV OPETH LIEK THAT ONE SONG THATS ON GUITAR HERO, I DONT REMEMBERZ THE NAMES"

    Say No to guitar hero.

  • NEVER, Opeth must never get into Gh. I love this game but i don't want to see any opeth song in this game. IT would no longer be.. ''underground''..? and those emozz faggzz would sai it's a screamo-hardcored-mtetalcored, what a damn thing at all! ahah

  • i agree with u... never put opeth on guitar hero, it wouldn´t be the same awesome band

  • exactly.

    everyone would ruin it, even though it would be fun to play. this is probably a bad example, but the same thing happened with dragonforce.

  • well, i hated dragonforce to begin with but Guitar hero just Amplified my hate for it

  • Dragonforce is the gayest band in existence! Opeth rapes them in the asshole!!!

  • i don't say it's the gayest, but it's VERY gay anyway hahahaha

    opeth rapes lots of bands in the ass \,,/

  • @Siike92 i dont think they want their diseases...

  • C´mon, why say no when it's so easy to say yes`You know you want it anyway right? Gotta have some right now...You wan't some?

  • @NinjaSCA It's good if it is charted properly... and lets face it. Those games are made for entertainment,., and Opeth would be great. I see your point though.

  • @NinjaSCA I'm aware your comment post in 2 years but what the heck lol. Yes after i purchase GH3 in 2007 and i stop buying GH games is getting super overrated, if Opeth were put in GH i be disgust and stop listen to opeth cuz Opeth will be mainstream and i dont want that.

  • @rickengothic Yeah, god fucking forbid more people find out about a good band and all of a sudden you're not that special for knowing them anymore. It's not like Åkerfeldt should get recognition for his work or anything.

  • @NinjaSCA hahaha made me laugh but its so true

  • does anyone have a good guitar pro tab of this?

    (gp4 please)

  • download gp5 via torrents and theres a really good tab on ultimate guitar...its the version 2 tab

  • Try figuring it out for yourself, it'a great practise. I promise.

  • It's so fun to do!

  • After this release I only have seen Mikael with this Morbid Angel t shirt.

    Three magazines, a live gig, and a video interview. Is that any kind of bet??

  • they sound so fucking good live, just like the album

  • this song has so many parts where icould just have an orgasm the fucking best song ever.

  • Metal like this makes me horny too!

  • Guy or girl? I needs to know!

  • Love it!

  • This is the best song in the new album along with Burden...

    Holy shit, this is groundbreaking monster among the death metal songs, and the solo at the end it's a masterpiece

    the only song i didn't like in the new album is porcelain heart... but opeth didn't let me down with this new album =)

    opeth forever!

  • In my opnion Burden is the best song in the new album than Lotus Eater and Heir Apparent

  • Peter was great but in my opinion Fredrick is a level above. Fuckin' smoking player.

  • this song is just amazingly badass, best on the cd without a doubt

  • fredrk seems to be doing a good job in filling peters feet... w`l have to wait and see...

    new album is great

  • Watershed is the best album of the actual opeth's discography. No doubt about it. Awesome

  • tongue in cheek thing. It is a well-rounded epic materpiece, but others might have mixed emotions. In my opinion, My Arms, Yours Hearse, was the Best, followed closely by Deliverance and Blackwater Park.

  • stop saying foolish comments!! OPETH NEW ALBUM IS THE BEST ALBUM SINCE 10 YEARS...

  • burden , heir apparent , procelain heart and lotus eater r the just great songs ...... the remaining isnot good at all

  • if you say something like that, then we know that you don't know anything about music...

    watershed is awesome every single song of it, you just have to understand it... but not every ordenairy person could understand such a pice of complex music.

  • oh pish-posh, try the hessian peel out

  • wow........

  • I believe Mikael could of played the second part of the solo better.

  • I stood in the second line. :)

  • love that ending. the new cd fucking rapes.

  • fredderik nailed that solo opeth r purely genious

  • It seems Opeth is even weirder in this album. Not that it's a bad thing, it's just funny how they're growing and yet becoming more progressive. And more, you know, thrashy.

  • Dear nikoletlarson you are a terrible human being. You do not deserve to watch this video. Please go get cancer and die.

  • saw them last night in chicago, so fucking good. this song is so badass! he is right, its evil as hell!

  • The solo at 2:23 reminds me of Nevermore

  • Totally agree with this.

  • Man opeth was fucken Aweomse last night very very good live shows and some rippen ass pits,never been head butted in the face so hard befor las night haha Dt gets boring as fuck:( the band it self is immense gayest singer ever/borefest when he sings

  • totally agree.

  • Greatest metal band ever? I dunno, Mayhaps the greatest metal band ever hasn't become a band yet, or even born, But currently opeth are awesome and have been consistently so since Orchid, right now I'd say they are the best, at least my favorite. Still miss peter though, I don't care how bloody technical akesson is.

  • Best metal band ever! Anyone disagree? If so, then you haven't heard their studio albums over the last decade.

  • Mikaels guitar was a fucking earsore before he tuned it.

    Gotta love a smart ass guitarist eh?

  • Haha, nikoletlarson? You are a moron.

    I hate uneducated blabbermouth idiots. I would usually skim read that comment and completelely dismiss it just from reading a few words, but people need to make an example of idiots like this.

    Trying to shatter and overrule a genre of music with three minites worth of internet chat that you'll probabily forget about once your mum calls you because your spagetti is ready. Really, what do you get from it? Are you bored?

    Ignorant sack of shit!

  • stupid crowd!! ruining the opeth sound lol, almost seems sacriligous whistling or shouting over it.

  • "If you listen to this crap, you shou8ld be ashamed of your self."

    I'd be ashamed of myself if I wrote out "yourself" as two words and spelled with randomly place numerical digits. I can pretty much guarantee you there is more to this song than hopping in front of a microphone and "growling a bunch nonsense". It's one thing to not be a fan of a particular genre and an entirely different thing to mindlessly dismiss the artistic merit of an entire band based on whether YOU like them or not.

  • lol nikoletlarson you are one of the most pathetics morons i have ever read at youtube, please if you can do a song like this one just by growl a bunch nonsense and by turning your guitar way up, make a video, upload it, and show it, i could bet everything that you will never be even near of making music like opeth

  • GTFO!!! Way to prove what an ignorant POS you are with that comment. Opeth are GODS.Granted the video's sound quality isn't that great it still rocks.

  • Apparently you haven't heard of this band before.. STFU and go listen to your "Bullet for my valentine" album..

  • Haha, I thought about doing that once.

    Acting like an absolute imbecile on purpose, to get uber cyber-attention from all over the globe...

  • why you write that if u have in your favorites a lot of opeth videos, and also a lot of ur favorite videos that aren´t opeth are just commercial piece of crap that allways do the same thing so they get money, that "artists" just want the money, not like opeth who actually cares about the quality and diversity of their music

  • That riff at about 2 minutes is absolutely incredible.

  • And Mikael said this performance was a bit rough? It's fucking spot on! And to all those people who think Akesson's solo sucks, I'm giving you the finger. The man's pro, he hit that solo spot on, on first performance, every note's perfect compared to the studio version.

  • even better

  • FUCK!!!!!!

    I just heard the studio version of this song...all i can say...FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!

    seein Opeth this saturday, fuckin hella can't wait XD

  • wow that ending was cool. but why the hell did mendez cut his hair off thats awefull - always liked his horizontal headbanging. btw: god i cant wait for this album!!

  • new album = amazing

  • i just heard the cd version of this song, AMAZING, this video doesn't do the song justice, listen to the cd version its amazing. The whole album rules OPETH IS THE SHIT!!

  • where do you hear it?

  • its been leaked to some sites, you just have to go look for it, good album :D

  • i just hate how people are talking amongst each other during the soft parts

    HAVE YOU NO RESPECT FOR OPETH??!?!?!

  • I KNOW! their soft parts are like the secret ingredients to the song. not enough people respect them.

  • ya i know what you mean, many people can't respect their musical talent, they just hear death metal mixed with soft music and say its terrible, its sad really...even worse, alot of people i know who have told me that Opeth sucks...HAVEN'T EVEN HEARD THEM, they just hear about them having slow music and assume they suck :/

  • Saw this the other night and wished I still had long hair so I could head bang this bitch!

  • Saw it played at Brixton. IT RULES... can't wait for the album to b released so i can cry with joy >:[]

  • Okay, Mendez cut his hair, Akesson's one of top 3 guitarists in Sweden, Axe kicks ass on the new cd. What the hell is it with people just not accepting this line-up? The new cd is fantastic, I heard it, it's just AMAZING...

  • Saw this live last night =].

    Amazing band..

    Shame they didn't play Ghost of Perdition.

  • i recon this song sounds amazing, if it was better quality it would be intence, seeing them again on saturday!!!! mwahahahahahahah

  • sarà per il cambio di line-up.... è innegabile che martin lopez e peter lindgren fossero fondamentali per mantenere la band a certi livelli. vedremo come sarà il cd. io comunque spero di dovermi ricredere

  • bisogna dire che gli opeth pur mantenendosi su livelli musicali altissimi per innovazione e originalità comincino a lasciare l'amaro in bocca. li ho sempre amati per la loro capacità di fondere sublimamente diverse sonorità, ma ora sembra che cambino ritmo non per ispirazione, ma per complicare un po' le canzoni... album come "morningrise" o "My Arms Your Hearse" erano forse più immaturi, ma sono i veri album di successo degli opeth e a quei lavori devono il loro successo odierno.

  • martin mendez cut his hair....

    why

  • Fucking hell, Melloboat would have been the best fucking thing to go to ever...

  • Why the fuck do people clap in a part with no percussion?!?! Listen to it as intended assholes.

  • Chill out they are just having a good time...

  • chill the fuck out

  • this song is fuckin rockin

  • This is only one track. Keep waiting. Have you heard The Lotus Eater of Porcelain Heart yet?

  • The Lotus eater is brutal :D

  • simply amazing.

  • ...with every other opeth album it has taken time to get into, however this so far is very disapointing from the band i class as the worlds leading musicians

  • Listen to the lotus eater, i think it's much better.

  • your name describes you well. "tard". this song is fucking brutal, and you're seriously fucking retarded. the whole album is intense, and this song is one of the best.

  • from what ive heard of the new album. it sounds desperate. opeths music, however heavy always sounds natural- it progresses naturally. this however does not. the style has changed into almost random progression with $h1t£ nursury rhyme parts like 3.30 mins into this song. after ghost reveries, opeth reached its peak but since lopez and lindgren left it seems they are trying to prove they are still underground. im afriad this isnt underground, this is $h1t£....

  • i love the way mendez moshs, tooo sick

  • This song is fucking killer! And the other two new leaked tracks are great, too. Porcelain Heart has an amazing groove to it.

    I can't wait for this album.

  • haha, martin mendez headbangs the same way as he always did...but now, he has no flying hair!

    maybe fredrik akkeson got his cut hair!:D it seems at least, he has as much hair good enough for two.

    but i can't tell how the song is...the recording's just too messy.

  • Es la primera vez que la escucho y me gustó. Pocas veces me pasa eso con un tema.

  • Es la primera vez que la escucho y me gustó. Pocas veces me pasa eso con un tema.

  • I don't really care for the 2 new songs. Maybe I need to listen to them a few more times and let them sink in. But I never needed to with any opeth song in the past. Any other opeth song I'd listen to would instantly draw me in.

  • I remember the first time i heard Ghost reveries in scotland. didnt really like it. didn't listen to it anymore after that untill i got home again, now when i listen to it it gives me goose bumps, so maybe it does just need some time?

  • i pretty much had your same reaction to the two new songs. but the next day i listened to them a couple more times, and fell in love with it. idk, hopefully the same'll happen to you.

  • Well, I find this new album (From the 3 songs I've heard off of it)to be filled Axenrot's out-of-place blasts and drum fills, and recycled riffs from the old (and superior) Opeth.

    What made me extatic to the point of wanting to gouge someone's eyes out, was when that fucking Fredrik Akesson ripped a very Roadrunner Records solo right in the middle of the song to rape the very last hope I had for the band's recovery. I won't get my old Opeth back. Goodnight, Sweet Prince.

  • From listening to this, and the two leaked tracks (The Lotus Eater and Porcelain Heart) I can tell this will be a masterpiece.

    I don't know if they'll be able to top something like Still Life, but even so, this will be a masterpiece itself.

  • oh thanks opeth ! i thought this album is goin to be shitty after the most important 2 members went out from it ! , but now i really say : i adore u opeth ,forever \m/

  • what? I wouldn't go so far in saying that Lopez and Peter were the 'most important 2 members'...

  • hey patternsll .. mikael akerfeildt got help from peter in rythm n ideas about the song's guitar since they were children so thats what made opeth The Band , and lopez was one of the bestest drummers ever , can u say something instead of that !! ?

  • sounds good to me i cant wait for the new stuff to drop. Opeth lives !!!!!!

  • Most of the people calling "foul" on the style of the solo...you made the first mistake when you EXPECTED anything particular from a boundless prog outfit such as Opeth. Open your minds.

  • At first I didn't like the solo style, partly because I absolutely loved Lindgren's sorta lazy way of doing 'em, but now after about 20 listens it works for me. I'm looking forward to seeing 'em live in three weeks.

  • you didn't know Lindgren left?! Living under a stone?!

    Cannot fucking wait to see these lads next wednesday :D

    and wtf is up with the leaks? whats the point?

  • leaks are fucked, wait your fuckin turn you impatient shits.

  • Where is Lindgren??? Great video and song... reminds me the times of Orchid and Morningrise..

  • Dude.. Lindgren left ='(

    You didn't know yet?

  • its my idea or mendez has short hair now? WTF!!!
