Yeah I mean I can understand finding it boring. It's probably the weakest song on the album, but I still find it interesting enough

How did Mike sound KILL? Apparently his growls are ok nowadays.

I'd be curious about that as well
For a band that has songs like White Cluster, Advent, Twilight is my Robe, April Ethereal, Ghost of Perdition, Leper Affinity and others, I wonder why they always stick with By the Pain and The Grand Conjuration so much. Both really good songs though no doubt.

The Grand Conjuration is one of my fav Opeth songs.

It has an awesome bridge and also a dissonant guitar part I really like, but I prefer everything else on that album tbh

"I wonder why they always stick with By the Pain and The Grand Conjuration so much. Both really good songs though no doubt."
There's plenty of doubt there tbh. One's boring as hell throughout and the other drags on and on. Both strange choices to include in their setlist, agreed.

@pleb he can growl better now bc he quit smoking.

Saw them a month ago or so, setlist was great, and Mikael was in pretty good shape.
And right Talons, they indeed played Deliverance as encore.

KILL does swear a dreadful lot, but his analyses are correct.

I assume in part they play certain songs so that they have "recognizable" sets. I think they want people to be able to expect certain songs live that are "good live songs". For a band that write 4 minute songs that's not a problem, cause you can have you staples and still plenty of room for new music or just music that's new to your live sets. But Opeth usually only have time for like, 8 songs, so it's a lot harder to choose. That's my theory.
I've seen them live 3 times and they certainly mixed it up (it was spread out so there was plenty of new music to add). They clearly make an effort to play crowd favorites/moshers, even when I saw them last after Pale Communion. That set had only 2 of the "recent era" songs and went all the way back to My Arms Your Hearse.
I was happy about that, especially after sitting through an In Flames set before that that had 1(!) songs from Clayman or earlier, and it wasn't even a good one!

I saw 22 different songs in three different gigs (one of them a 50 minutes festival slot. They DO change the set almost completely from tour to tour
