Listen to this cover of The Drapery Falls i found, the singing is hilarious. Good acoustic cover though.[url]http://www.grumlee.com/mp3/228_Grum_Lee_Acoustic_(Opeth_-_The_Drapery_Falls).mp3[/url]

That may be the world's most nonsensical video ever. Random images, anyone?

Grey Incision 04-15-2006 01:07 AM

A stab in the dark would be that they were attempting something extremely cryptic and hidden with the video and failed miserably because they tried too hard and it lost any point amongst the randominity or it is just bordering that line which makes it nonsensical.

Deth 04-15-2006 12:36 PM

Opeth had nothing to do with the video. I read an interview with Mikeal and he was confused with it as well.

Thor 04-15-2006 01:37 PM

Here's a cool and pretty funny video for all of you Opeth fans who like hearing funny things that Mikael says inbetween songs:

Shadows 04-15-2006 02:20 PM

When even the band hates the video, you know it has to be bad. But sometimes it's the hilarious kind of bad, like CoB's Needled 24/7. :lol: I've never seen the entire TGC video though, as the first 10 seconds I have seen were enough to make me realize that it was probably as bad as Mikael said.

Whale and Wasp 04-15-2006 03:38 PM

[QUOTE=ok lateralus]major understatement.[/QUOTE]
true......"appalling" then



they should seriously make some videos for the older songs....with like beutiful forest/ emotional scenes. those would rule! also it would be pretty cool if they made a movie for still life or mayh concept albums (like how pink floyd di one for the wall, etc):thumb:

Crysiss 04-15-2006 05:13 PM

The TGC video was alright. I think its on youtube right now.

Shadows 04-15-2006 05:14 PM

I just downloaded...watching now...

EDIT: that sucked

Shattered_Future 04-15-2006 05:19 PM

That it did. There were some hot chicks in there though...

Stoo 04-15-2006 05:28 PM

Anyone know Opeth are going to Download? UGH!!

JamJar 04-15-2006 05:30 PM

^Yeah, I only found out yesterday and I really want to go as Tool, Opeth, Dredg and DragonForce are playing, but I don't have any money to buy tix. (They've probably sold out anyway)

Stoo 04-15-2006 05:32 PM

Yea I was checking the dates for someone and I just saw.

Mang, wish I had friends who like Metal!! Then I'd go. :upset:

I'm seeing Tool in June anyway, but still. Tallica etc.

Kaiwaz 04-15-2006 05:50 PM

[QUOTE=Knifeboy]Favorite Opeth solo.. Both the Windowpane solos.. Been listening to that song alot lately, and I realised that Windowpane is all about the solos.. The rest is just.. Sort of "filler".. I mean, the vocals are sort of boring in that song... And it wouldn't be as amazing a song as it is, if it wasn't for the beautiful expressive solos[/QUOTE]


The solo's on Windopane are really good. I really like the solo's on Ending Credits also. It's such an amazing song.

Crysiss 04-15-2006 05:52 PM

Ending Credits is the song most people around here first started liking. Thanks to the whoring of one specific person:D

The chord progressions are cool too.

Tool AND Opeth? Dredg too! When do we find out if it's the same day? Because if they are then I'm definately going.

Kaiwaz 04-15-2006 05:59 PM

Ending Credits and Weakness were the songs that I liked the most when I first heard Damnation, I liked Hope Leaves, I just found the former to be more apealing to me on my first listen. They still don't compare to Epilogue. That has to be my favorite Opeth song at this moment.


N.P. Epilogue ~ Opeth

[QUOTE=Crysiss]The chord progressions are cool too.[/QUOTE]

Ah, the ever creative i-iv-V... at least Mike threw some color notes in the chords to make it decent. The lead is really what makes that song though.

Shattered_Future 04-15-2006 06:25 PM

Weakness I don't like that much...it's too...weird, even by Opeth standards.

Ending Credits rocks though...

Man, I just can't get over that sung part in Godhead's Lament. I was listening to it again today, and it never ceases to amaze me...

I know mang. :upset:

On Topic...

I was listening to My Arms, You're Hearse in my bed last night.

Man, I knew it was gooood.

But afterwards I think it's definately in my top 3 Opeth observations. :p

Man, I just can't get over that sung part in Godhead's Lament. I was listening to it again today, and it never ceases to amaze me...[/QUOTE]

I havn't listened to Still Life is a week or 2 now...I must later tonight. But I too love that part. The firts part that really stood out in that song for me I would say...

Elmo McCheese 04-15-2006 07:05 PM

The sung part in Godhead's Lament somehow reminds me of a Christmas song, it's so good.

Here is a cool little interview with Mikael. The discussion at the very end excites me. :D

I heard talk of the album with Steve Wilson, Akerfeldt, and Portnoy?

I just had an orgasm. :)

I haven't listened to it all yet, but the part where Mikael says he wants to open on a tour with Tool damn near stopped my heart; I stopped breathing for a moment.

Once you listen to them you will go into cardiac arrest. :thumb:

Shattered_Future 04-15-2006 10:13 PM

Jesus Christ...

Tool AND Opeth, ON THE SAME TOUR?

Ok, I can't accept anything as shocking anymore...
