[QUOTE=relliK]Drop C is nu-metal.Not D.STUPID!!!!![/QUOTE]

Drop C can be polka it's just a tuning nothing more nothing less.

Darkness 08-26-2005 11:15 PM

Agreed, I hate how some people think your genre depends on your tuning.

Lateralias 08-26-2005 11:39 PM

Yeah I know, actually I heard that Ghost Reveries was in D tuning for most of the album, can anyone confirm this?

4130 08-27-2005 08:51 PM

Just bought and listened to the whole album. VERY nice. Like everyone said the singing is different to anything they've done before, but stll awsome none the less. I loved The Grand Conjuration that song blew me away, I don't know what everyone was complainign about.

From what I've learned so far... yes. I can only play Baying of the Hounds in D and as well as some other riffs from different songs.

The first time I listened to that song I didn't like it at all, yet I find myself listening to it almost every morning on the way to work. It really grew on me.

The entire album was excellent...I wanted more ''Voilence'' on the album...but I can't complain, It's new, It's Opeth. :thumb:

^The lyrics to this album are breathtaking.Mikael really did an awesome job on the lyric writing for this album.They are so dark.I think they are about being possesed by demons or something.

[QUOTE=I Am Vikingcore]Suffocated by Akerfeldt's nose hair as well?[/QUOTE]
:lol: I did notice that.

Iron Man 08-28-2005 06:31 PM

2 days until I'm not the only Opeth fanboy on this forum that hasn't heard the new album. Or at least it seems like it.

Deth 08-28-2005 06:34 PM

I've only heard GoP and TGC. I can't wait.

Iron Man 08-28-2005 07:00 PM

[QUOTE=Creeping_Deth]I've only heard GoP and TGC. I can't wait.[/QUOTE]

Maybe I'm not. Anyway, I think I should skip school that day and sit at the record store waiting for it to open. I'd look like a loser, but I get my album right away ;)

ROH 08-28-2005 07:02 PM

I'm so desperately waiting for this album to come out I re-listened to Isolation Years on power tab atleast 5 times last night.

Iron Man 08-28-2005 07:06 PM

[QUOTE=ROH]I'm so desperately waiting for this album to come out I re-listened to Isolation Years on power tab atleast 5 times last night.[/QUOTE]

I would have done the same, if I had the PT downloaded...but I refuse to do even that, I can wait 2 more days....right?

Deth 08-28-2005 07:28 PM

C'mon, wait with me.

It'll be fun, I have cake and everything.

ROH 08-28-2005 07:32 PM

*eats cake*

Deth 08-28-2005 07:35 PM

Well, I GUESS you can wait with us.

If you're a good n00b.

ROH 08-28-2005 07:37 PM

OfSins&Shred 08-28-2005 08:01 PM

yea I've heard The ghost of Perdition properly & heard a really crap version of The grand conjuration..... Two more days for me too.....

Arrakakaka 08-28-2005 08:49 PM

I've been enjoying it for a few weeks :p

I could upload it for you guys.

Iron Man 08-28-2005 08:58 PM

[QUOTE=Unstable Mind]I've been enjoying it for a few weeks :p

I know exactly where I could get it and could be listening to it in an hour if I really wanted to.

But, seeing as I bought the first 7 albums, a T-shirt and their DVD I'm going to wait and buy this one too.

deadinholywood 08-28-2005 10:00 PM

Eh i saw it at the cd store on friday and i didnt get it, i have all of their other stuff but of the 3 or so songs ive heard on the radio it does pretty much nothing for me, i really dislike Mikael's new vocals but i may pick it up and hope that it grows on me.

Radio? You mean, internet radio or something?

Darkness 08-28-2005 10:04 PM

Yeah, my friend/bass player has been hearing Ghost Of Peridition on the radio... it got us pretty siked.

deadinholywood 08-28-2005 10:06 PM

No i mean radio radio, Triple J in Australia has a program on Tuesday nights called 'Full Metal Racket' where nothing but heavy music is played

Massik Kretal 08-28-2005 10:12 PM

New vocals? They seem the same to me.

...Yes I meen "radio radio" as well, a station here also has a metal show.

deadinholywood 08-28-2005 10:37 PM

[QUOTE=Massik Kretal]New vocals? They seem the same to me.[/QUOTE]

No the clean vocals that i have heard so far for this album are much different and to me dont sound as good as those from previous Opeth albums

Det_Nosnip 08-28-2005 11:50 PM

Ah. You haven't heard Harlequin Forest, then.

Although I still hold that the acoustic section of "Godhead's Lament" is Mikael's best vocal work, I absolutely love Ghost Reveries.

Mr Benners 08-29-2005 05:54 AM

TODAY!

YES YES YES!

I HELD OUT!

Off to buy it..........

RIGHT NOW!

Will return with my thoughts tonight!

Deth 08-29-2005 06:04 AM

Oh, is it released today in the UK?

Lucky bastard.
