"saying that Opeth songs would be improved by being half as long is a very slippery slope to go down"
Song lengths on Morningrise ought to be quartered tbh

There it is ๐ฅ

nah there's no excuse for cutting anything on morningrise
|
| |
Black Rose Immortal is probably my fave Opeth song other than the t/t here, and I have no problems admitting that half of it belongs in the bin lol
|
| |
why tho
|

the first minute is a good start, but then
1:12 - 3:10 is a circuitous overharmonised 6/8 snoozefest
3:10 - 4:04 is just random riffing that has fuck all to do with the rest of the song
4:04 - 4:12 is literal silence for no reason
4:12 on is great and should have been the start of the track. things get better from here until 6:02, which is very good and probably the first riff that really captures the soul of the piece
7:30-8:51 is kinda dumb but ok let's roll with it
8:51 - 14:45 is classic and hands down the best thing opeth did idk probably
14:45 - 16:36 is a good cooldown
16:36 is one of the most lol wtf is this happening guitar solos I can remember. hilariously dumb songwriting
17:27 is a "ok let's forget that happened" moment, this to the end works pretty well as a coda
|
| |
can't be bothered to do the maths here, but there's an enjoyable proportion that adds 0 value to the track as a whole
|
| |
ah
|
| |
am relistening without skipping around now and yup, that's the most pointless first 4 minutes of any track I can remember
good thing it can afford to lose them

kinda weird how some people will defend one maligned genre's artistic integrity with one hand while completely discounting another's with the other
i think the cognitive dissonance would give me an aneurysm, but then again i only have this tiny caveman brain not a big otaku brain :[
|
| |
artistic integrity and personal preferences (both different things to begin with) are, uh, not the same as good or bad songwriting, which is kinda what is under discussion here
