Opeth, je weet wel die Zweedse metalheads, toeren er weer flink op los. Uiteraard kon een bezoek aan onze metalhoofdstad niet ontbreken. Ondergrond.tv zocht ze op en vond ze in de duistere kerkers van de Melkweg. Terwijl hun nieuwste nummer 1 hit "Burden" wordt ingezet verteld zanger Mikael Åkerfeld hoe het nou allemaal is begonnen.

  • I don't care about the line-up. They still sound so....unparalleled. I can't even classify them. Neither can any of you who make an attempt to classify them. Any attempt at this at all will ALWAYS result in an understatement. Opeth=Opeth. Thats the only statement that can be said without it being an understatement.

  • there is no genre for them, theyre just opeth \m/

  • @JBT24 Very true, I guess what I'm saying is that I would call them a prog rock band with metal leanings rather than a death metal band with prog leanings these days.

  • @Nubnut You also forgot that KC and Anekdoten are definitely not "unrecognizable", and even with the whole death metal element, Opeth has as much variety as those bands.

  • @JBT24 And Anekdoten is HEAVILY influenced (some say a ripoff of) by King Crimson, so essentially you're saying that it sounds like King Crimson, which was commonly described as both Prog Rock and Jazz Fusion.

  • @Nubnut 60% of their music is progressive metal. They mix in rock/blues/jazz/folk/pop/ambia­nce and maybe a couple more. Having a metal song with diverse influences or a rock song with diverse influences doesn't make a band impossible to categorize. And if you're talking about The Devil's Orchard, there's barely anything jazzy about it, it sounds like generic prog rock, or an Anekdoten rip off.

  • @JBT24

    Ya.... And then you listen to their new song and they've thrown metal completely out the window and are now a Jazz Fusion band.

    Opeth isn't uncategorizable per say. They just cover about 30 different genres.
