Mariopeth

The over-progressive section of the song "The Lotus Eater" from the forthcoming Opeth album "Watershed" reminds me of Super Mario.. And what you see on 18th sec. is perhaps "the lotus eater".

Dude, 4/4 is so over progressive

[GraemeDrummer]

this is the best bit in the whole fucking song man

[YungusCH]

@wcr4 you don't have to be in 2415/213idaksd21i2 to be progressive

@BenjaminProd It's a well written homage to those bands and that style, definitely, and it's performed brilliantly. It's still boring.

@Redd0346 Ghost Reveries was awesome, I see nothing wrong in wanting something that good.

@nanonymousm this section of the lotus eater got me into opeth. its one of the highlights of watershed

Dude all of Opeth's albums are amazing. Some have no screaming, some have a lot, but it's all good.

If you want death metal listen to Aeon or Bloodbath... (both great)

If you want to get high and visit another world listen to Opeth......

If you're sober and want to visit another world listen to Opeth....

i hear a lot of complains about Heritage, i don't find it as my favorite opeth album, but it is a great album

why the fuck would an awesome and talented band would get stucked in just one style of music, if they can play lots of good stuff? at least they change trying to do more good music and different styles

art is about taking risks, and they're doin that

i don't think that a band like Led Zeppelin would've become in what they are without taking risks

@BenjaminProd I love Opeth, in fact I'm going to see them later today at the house of blues.

I'm NOT invested in Opeth playing death metal, Damnation is one of my favorite records. I love prog and I still think heritage is lame.

@gsusfreak08 If you like trance then I could not give a bigger shit about your opinion of Heritage;). "It's just boring", this is an enitrely different approach to music and it is heavily influenced by 60's and 70's prog music / psychedelic stuff, it is SUPPOSED to be like this... if you've heard anything like King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Focus, Yes, Rush, Nazareth, Kansas etc etc, you would know that this is pretty well made and lacks no structure as you say.

[gsusfreak08]

@BenjaminProd Doesn't have anything to do with 'understanding Opeth.. and knowing their music as a whole', I love metal.. and I love Jazz, I love indie, I love trance.. but, Heritage isn't actually very good. It's boring. Don't go the whole 'you need to listen how deep and amazing it is' on me.. it's just boring. They play really dynamic interesting parts for like 20 seconds a song.. and then groove on an organ for 8 minutes. Groovin is cool, but structure is important.
