i saw something on ultimateguitar.com where he said that by making a record like this and Heritage, they were being rebellious within metal

I personally find this a good album, but yeah it really is void of any creativity or originality. Same problem I had with Deliverance...

And modern metal fans, he also admitted that he hasn't listened to death metal in like 10 years

Considering he also dominates conversation in any interview with the band I wouldn't be surprised if he's calling pretty much all the shots from a creative point of view

Yea Mikael is the front man so he pretty much does determine the direction of the band.

"a loss of the dynamic energy that arguably characterised Opeth’s sound more than any other attribute. Without one to compliment the other, the sole remaining element is exposed as an unremarkable gear to a clockwork mechanism that has ceased to exist."



sums it up perfectly
