what did you do?

I've always contemplated moving to Canada for some reason or other when I get out of my house...

SDBTS is an excellent track. It's happish, almost.

Hello all at the Opeth board (I'm new here in case you didn't realize).

Anyway, I got Morningrise just a couple days/weeks ago and something's been bugging me a bit. I really like The Night and the Silent Water (even though I like Black Rose Immortal more), but I read on Opeth's site that Mikael and Peter apparently dislike it quite a lot. What do you guys think of it?

Night and the Silent Water is good, I don't understand why they don't like it... kinda like Killswitch Engage with When The Balance Is Broken.

I just bought my tickets to the March 19 show.

[QUOTE=Whale and Wasp]what did you do?[/QUOTE]
I clicked on a bad link... OMFG!!111!

I think alot of other MX'ers did aswell.

:chug: ...To mass banning.

Its one of my favorites by Opeth. They said on Lamentations that they didn't like it cause all the other bands where they were started sounding just like them. something like that

They said something like they didn't like the older Opeth sound (Dual guitar harmonies and the like) thats why on Still Life onwards they opted for more traditional heavy riffing. They said all the Swedish metal bands were using the old style and they wanted to move on.

I can't remeber if I heard that on Lamentations or the FaceCulture videos of Mikael.

Can anyone send me Still Day Beneath the Sun on AIM?

m0rningrise is my AIM sn

Not much, if anything, about the Still Life album is "traditional."

I can't remember where I heard this, but I read somewhere that they dislike it because it was about the death of Mikael's uncle or something like that. The song itself is very good though.

Yes, but grandfather actually.

Plus the general disinterest in that style doesn't help.

Mike says on Lamentations that he loves Morningrise and thinks it's really great but the reason they stopped playing in that guitar style was because so many other Swedish metal bands were doing it at the same time and he felt it was getting played out (paraphrase).

The reason he dislikes TNATSW is because of his grandfather's death being associated with it, other bad memories, etc. if I remember right.

Truth. I've started listening to this album lately, and it's entirely unconventional for what was going on in music at the time. Hell, even to this day, it's still unconventional.

Finally got BWP back on my computer from such a long time of not being able to listen to it. It sounds so good.

Nice thread kill Moses, but I'm going to ruin it.

I thought this video was pretty funny. [url]http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-308190821724584227&q=opeth[/url]

:p

Is Martin Lopez back aboard for the NA leg of their tour? Sorry if this has been gone over, but there's no real good search terms to find it.

How come I didn't figure you were going to say that?

I just listened to it (can't friggin' sleep) and I was blown away, as usual. This time it was by how well the album flows. The parts seem to run into each other more perfectly than on any other Opeth album, especially on White Cluster (which is one hell of an underrated song)

I suck at hockey:( And welfare sucks most of the time. Usually you don't have enough money to support anyone but yourself. No, i wasn't on welfare but some of my family in the rez are on welfare.

Imagine that setlist live.

That's like a 5 hour setlist. It would own so hard.
