So im trying to nail Bleak.

Probably late 07.

At least that's what I expect that to be.

[QUOTE=the2stranger]The Amen Corner is one song by Opeth that I find bland, the riffs are good, it's just misplaced and incoherent to my ear, whch makes the overal l track lose in power[/QUOTE]
I love that song. The intro is sweet. Seeing it live also helped my liking for it.

I find that the intro to the Amen Corner is awsome but it never really gets going and doesn't really live up to the intro.

[QUOTE=Daven]So im trying to nail Bleak.[/QUOTE]

Good luck! Me too, actually...although I'm learning the guitar parts on piano.

Well, its definitely going to take me some time but ill do my best.

:thumb:

[QUOTE=the2stranger]And I hope it doesn't turn out to be crappy and that is has more keys. :)[/QUOTE]

Hush, you. Per owns your soul.

Steve Wilson was less... protagonic.

You've gotta give him that.

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]Hush, you. Per owns your soul.[/QUOTE]

I think he was saying that he wanted more keys :p

Well, I DON'T CARE! :smash: :smash: :smash:

:p

That's not even a word, is it?

[QUOTE=Daven]So im trying to nail Bleak.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I've had sex with it too.

Wouldn't the word be protagonistic?

[QUOTE=Deth]Yeah, I've had sex with it too.[/QUOTE]

Is it hard on bass? The bassist of my band says it is very hard...

[QUOTE=pate]Start with Still Life.[/QUOTE]

Still life if a biit more of a grower, at least to me it was. Blackwater Park I was addicted to, and I mean seriously chemically enslaved to, from the beginning. That album is like eroding from the prolongued laser radiation it has recieved from my CD player.

Get Ghost Reveries too it is along the same lines as BWP and Still Life.

Alot of the newer Opeth fans I meet tend to like GR moreso.

Id start with BP or Still Life.

I notice there are always album recommendations floating around so often..

Album recommendations, favorites lists, and gushing over some song are basically the 3 things that occur on this thread. It's just one big repetative cycle.

Oh yes...

Everythings been talked about in this thread already...

So, has anyone ever teared up listening to an Opeth song?

Made an Opeth Wallpaper. Its at 1680x1050 because thats my monitor size. Here it is if you're interested. [url]http://www.pix-fix.net/opeth%20wall.jpg[/url]

I havent teared up but ive been close. Middle of Blackrose Immortal at the soft acoustic part. The end of TBYF.

Me, The first time I heard Still Day Beneath The Sun :(

By The Way, Thats great. I wish I was patient enough to make something like that. The Effects are amazing.

What program did you use?

im just posting this to express my love for BLACK ROSE IMMORTAL!!!! :eek: :eek: ive always liked it, but tonight it totally shat all over me :p

It's that awesome. :cool:

I used to love that track so much. The First couple listens I was obsessed over how its 20 minutes. :eek:

Holy crap man, that's excellent work.

So the song's German? :p

I don't mean any disrespect with that either.

I'm stealing that wallpaper and using it. :chug:

Same here! That is amazing.

Yes it is great work. I'd use it but my monitor is widescreen and it looks like crap stretched out. Plus I have an Adrian Belew background of my own making that I'm enjoying right now.

No offense, but that wallpaper is incredibly tacky.

I should have been more impressed with Opeth. They did live up to what I was expected. Good for what they are, though.

[QUOTE=Eleventeen]No offense, but that wallpaper is incredibly tacky.[/QUOTE]

What do you mean? It's awesome. It looks like Mikael is in a mini blizzard or something. :p

I thought it looked pretty cool...

There's one at every party.

I just got Opeth's Lamentations DVD and am watching it now. Looks pretty sweet so far.

It is very good. A killer documentary as well. It's great for Mendez quotes.

"I take...I took the baah....I took the bass after my father."

"I met some guys.....and we started to play....classic rock. They I met some....metal guys....and we started to play some....heavy metal."

:lol: :lol:

I love that DVD - esp Master's Apprentices

Unfortunately my PC spits it out 9 times out of 10...
along with Lichtspielhaus. All other DVDs are fine.
It grips my goolies when it does that.
