Ha, easily.

So he could nail "Deliverance" no problem? Then kick into Windowpane?

Alot of people can "nail" Deliverance and Windowpane. Neither of those is really a challenge for a good drummer that can play hip-hop, jazz, rock and metal, which Abe can do. Plus he has even more groove than Lopez.

The only thing I don't think alot of people can touch Lopez in is the dynamics and that's what made him special. Plus playing in an unorthodox style for the genre.

I thought Deliverance was a fairly dynamic song. But whatever, I don't know much about drumming, and from the Deftones I've heard, I don't recall any standout drumming. Please don't snap at me. :p

Lol, it's the more subtle things that Abe does in Deftones that makes him great. Plus if you've seen him solo, you'd know that he's damn good.

They could probably replace Lopez with my drummer...

Or my drummer.

I really wanna know what happened to that MA SW and MP project.

(if you don't know the abbreviations, **** you)

The obvious answer is that Opeth and DT are busy. But still, I'd like to hear something from that.

It actually took me a second to get the second and third ones. :lol:

Yeah, I'd like to know too. I bet maybe once Opeth cools off from the touring, Mike and the boys will get things started. We may even see that before a new Opeth record.

Highly doubtful, since PT is pretty busy themselves right now. Touring, then new album sessions, then more touring.

I have very high hopes for the project. Hopes that will probably never be met.

Oh alright, well we'll see then. I wonder what DT is up to as well.

Then again, what the hell do I know, there might be a break in there sometime. Just wishful thinking on my part.

Can you really complain?

New PT = awesome
New Project = awesome as well

The last I heard it was still supposed to happen in the fairly near future. I think someone asked about it in the MA Gigantour chat, and he said it was still on.

Yes indeed about Moonlapse Vertigo.

A name for a song that I don't really get why it's called that way but it's a cool name nonetheless.

So, apparently Solefald are ****ing amazing. :eek:[/QUOTE]

Of course. :D:D

On the drummer topic:
Most of all, I want LOpez back, he just had an overal sound, that was just awesome and added so much.

Honestly I'd much rather just have a new Porcupine Tree album. I know the project will be good, but it will never escape the so-called supergroup that it is.

Woooooooooh, my Opeth albums came today. I finally [U]legally[/U] own Damnation and a second copy of Blackwater Park.

Why the second copy of BWP?

I had the original BWP but I wanted the limited edition with the amazing slipcase and bonus disc. Now I'm wondering what to do with the first version.

Bad, bad chirstmas spirit.

Jared, go away you fag.

Anyway, yeah. Opeth.

Yes...Opeth.

I only own the regular BWP. What's on this bonus disc?

I didn't know of any bonus disc.

I second the question as to the contents of said disc.

[QUOTE=pate;13375891]Yes...Opeth.

Two songs that weren't on the original copy, and some music videos.

The songs are "Patterns In The Ivy II" and "Still Day Beneath the Sun". They're both clean songs and they're pretty good.

Actually, they're amazing. They're acoustic songs like Harvest but with the dark feel of [I]Damnation[/I].

Plus all of the artwork looks nice and fancy since it's limited edition.

Oh, I've heard both those songs.

I didn't like Patterns in the Ivy II at all.

What music videos?

I think it's just Harvest, but I haven't checked it out yet.

That's the only legal copy I've ever had. The all black slip cover is so metal! \m/

Harvest > Still Day Beneath Sun > Patterns in the Ivy II

Are you serious? That song is wonderfull.

Both bonus tracks > Harvest

Who produced GR? Jens something?

And could someone send me the two bonus tracks? I had them but deleted them or something.. can't find them in any case. Thanks.

[email]bananaman__@hotmail.com[/email]

That's a pretty safe bet.

Wow, first time in a while I have to disagree with you on somthing.

It was a good run.

I love Still Day Beneath The Sun. It's such a chill track, and it's quite beautiful.

It's a very good song, but the two deleted tracks just don't amount up to Harvest. That song has some of the best vocal work from Akerfeldt methinks.

But as far as great clean Opeth songs go, To Bid You Farewell and Benighted cannot be beaten.

Face of Meeeeeeelindaaaaaaaaaaa!

I love that song, just the transition could have been easier on the ears.
