Well I'll be Dam[size=2]n[/size]ed if Sweden isn't Northern Hem.

same, they just plain don't release Opeth albums down here in Sydney :( they have to order them in, it sucks.

^^^^^ BLASPHEMY

I remember when I was looking for Orchid, I went into the JB HI-FI in the city, and they had SEVEN copies.

Sorry Aussies! ;-)

the good old Opeth sound ;)

the occult BM album thingy isn't going to happen, of witch I'm glad

In that case im glad to.

There are 2 things of which im afraid. Either Opeth goes comercial, or Opeth goes Evil Black metal.



we all know the one isn't going to happen so yeah, im glad.

I don't know if you typed "witch" rather than "which" on purpose or not, but in regards to the subject matter...f'kin brilliant.

orchid is one of my favorite opeth albums

actually it was a typo, but it looks good in the sentence anyway :p


long live Opeth!

DO you think Opeth is better live or studio? I have only heard Opeth live through Lamentations, though i do find it to be beautiful. I'm listening to In My Time of Need, great stuff. I love mah Opeth!!!!

can anyone here play the solo in Black Rose Immortal around 16:30? im gonna try and learn it in a bit.

just wondering :D

i can play it, but not perfectly, sounds a bit sketchy

Its in Parramatta :wave: (my home town) :wave: . Yes it is very difficult to find Orchid in Australia, i had to take the train to Canberra to find it, got the last copy :D

Difficult? Seven copies in one store is not difficult, maybe JB just kicks major ***. Or you meant just in sydney not in australia.

Difficult = 6 months of unsuccessful attempts to get [b]any[/b] Opeth album in my town. I'm glad I'm moving soon...

quick question, i just got into opeth and i'm trying to learn stuff from deliverance and i'm wondering if you guys know any tricks. i can do the screwy time sigs, but i used to playing tool. so any tips and opeth guitar would help. thanks, sorry for the newby sounding post.

You said they were from Sweden, I heard somewhere that they were from Switzerland :confused:

I have a trick i use when playing Opeth songs, i guess it's something that develops over studying their peices a lot. There are a lot of similarities in the chords and arpeggio's Mikael/Peter play. (except ****ation album) The solo's are generally derived from scales, so just practice scale work, and it helps to play a lot. Also the melodies that are played, are generally fairly easy, so you should learn those first, to get the feel of the song.

Please, fellow Opeth fans, this is just my perception of their music and the way their songs (the ones which i have attempted) are played.

good post:thumb: rep+ if i can

**** cant

me has an idea instead

rep++ for the thought

**** i can't either, mx hates aussies man:(

but yes, America is 2nd:( but don't worry, new zealand will catch up :)

Thanks

what are your thoughts on last track on deliverance- by the pain i see in others? I think its one of the most experimental tracks that i have ever heard, has its moments though.
