Meh i wouldnt enjoy an opeth - DT collaboration.

Ew...
DT seem to serious and Opeth is just wayy too laid back (From what it seems on stage, Quote from mike " Meet peter, he's gay")

its a good thing its not happening.


Well, rumours have been floating around that their doing a project with Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree and Mike Portnoy of DT.

I would hate to see or hear an Opeth-Dream Theater Collaboration.


Cryssis: just Mikael.

yea I forgot to say that. My bad

[QUOTE=Diabolus in Musica]I noticed Opeth has song similar to Rushes YYZ.... I can't remember the exact Opeth Song it reminded me of.[/QUOTE]
Maybe the end of Deliverance? That crazy beat for the last 3 minutes is vaguely similar to the intro riff of YYZ.

The Wilson/Akerfeldt/Portnoy thing is going to happen, we just don't know when.

I can't wait to hear what they come up with.

k cool, I look forward to it.

Steven and Mikaels songwriting=Eargasm:D

Wow, that sounds good.

I love portnoys drumming, and i hope mike is singing

Mikael and Steven singing harmonies=Eargasmsx1000:D

I can almost positvely promise that Steven and Mikael will share vocal duties

Even on Opeth albums, Steven still sings.

I didnt like that Steven didnt work with the 'peth with GR:(

Growling? Singing? Whos doing what and how.

(Im interested now :))

I kind of doubt that there are going to be any growling, the three of them will create something progressive w/out growling.

Hmm...I love mikes growl


(2000!)

I'm especially excited to hear what this will be like. Does the project have a name yet? Or any official information?

His growl is brutal, I like the way it sounds in Bloodbath alot.

Congrats on 2000, 20 more for me and ill hit 2100:)\

[QUOTE]OPETH frontman Mikael Åkerfeldt has confirmed reports that he is planning on collaborating with PORCUPINE TREE's Steven Wilson and DREAM THEATER drummer Mike Portnoy on an as-yet-[B]un-named [/B]project.[/quote]

nope, nothing much yet.

Ive never heard porcupine tree, is steven wilson a singer?


( yea 2000 is nice, but im a year older than you in MX days, you win mx :))

[QUOTE=Hevy Tred]Ive never heard porcupine tree, is steven wilson a singer?[/QUOTE]
He's a composer for the most part. He does create some of the best vocal harmonies though and writes all the instrument parts and sings for Porcupine Tree.

thats 2 months older buddy haha.

Steven Wilson is a singer, yes. You can hear him singing on Bleak, Masters Apprentice, etc. Stuff from D/D and BWP.

[QUOTE]
I think me and Steven want to make it heavy, and I think Mikael wants to, uh, not be heavy. Because me and Steven want to do stuff that we can't do with PORCUPINE TREE and DREAM THEATER, and get to some really heavy stuff. And I think that Mikael wants to get away from the heavy stuff because he does that all the time with OPETH[/QUOTE]

That part was interesting

Porcupine tree being...Deathmetal? similar to opeth or DT?


[QUOTE]thats 2 months older buddy haha[/QUOTE].

(Well you can cut my posts in half, i used to be a pit beast, haha)

[QUOTE=Hevy Tred]Porcupine tree being...Deathmetal? similar to opeth or DT?[/QUOTE]
:lol:

No, it's not even heavy. It's just really good music.

no, Not Death Metal.

Ahh any recommended songs? Maybe worth the look if thier good.

I didn't know Steve Wilson sang in Master's Apprentice...

its in the part before it goes.

Hmm, I'll listen to it then and see. I always thought Akerfeldt sang all those clean parts :-/

Ah, the Ahhh part :p he sings with Akerfeldt then, heh.

Same here. This is odd...

Harmonizing with him, it works out great:)

I only know because I seen them recording that part on the Lamentations DVD.

That's probably what Portnoy is gonna do with Mike and Steve. It's weird seeing him with a smaller set.

Wow! You could actually see Portnoy.
