I dunno.They arent pure wankage?

Anyway, it seems Mikael has sort of gained a reputation for being an arrogant ****-talker according to people on Blabbermouth.

I just think Mikael's statement get's taken way out of context.The last sentence in his whole statement becomes the topic title and all of a sudden everyone acts like he went on a whole rant about how much Lordi sucks.

Important note: Blabbermouth users tend to be pathetic virgins who do nothing but piss and moan about how much a band sucks or how much of an asshole some musicians are.Their opinions are worth about a half a cent.

[QUOTE=Flynn]The Pale Haunt Departure has it's moments, but certainly nothing close to [B]O[/B]peth.

I didn't say it was Opeth, I said it was LIKE Opeth. And you can't deny the similarities.

I don't know, Mikael has been known to be very selective about what he listens to, and he's always been vocal about bands he likes and dislikes. It wouldn't surprise me if that were true.

[B]Thing I took from Akerfeldt interview[/B]:

Have you heard the band Naked City?

Yeah, oh yeah! Is that him?! Oh ****! I’ve been listening to them, the guy who ran our first record label, candlelight, he was a very big fan of Naked City and he played us some of their stuff and it’s just amazing. I’m not sure if I think it’s good, but I’m absorbed in it. It’s almost funny because it’s so extreme. They had one song where they put in like thirty different music styles in one song it went from Jazz to Grind Metal…

Mhm, its called “Speedfreaks,” and I’ve seen them do it live.

You must have been laughing.

It was great and the funny part is that most of them are very unassuming, almost boring looking.

And they’re a bit older. Are they American?

Yeah.

**** yeah, I was laughing when I first heard it because I didn’t know if it was a joke or not...


[B]Another one:[/B]


BEDLAM: We are not big fans of KATATONIA but hearing this was a different story. I thought it was a totally new band. Good tour going on, sold out shows, what happened with LACUNA COIL?

MIKAEL: They didn't get their green cards, but it's no big loss to me because I think they suck.

And I've also read tons of stuff about when they were on the Sounds of the Underground Tour, how it should be called the "Sellout Tour", and how all the bands suck on it and stuff. He reminds me of me. :p

well good he has an oppinion, in fact the same oppinon as me so good for him...

[QUOTE]
one of the hard rock POSERS, OK, good to know

he has ZERO taste in music, i heard those LAME *** songs he likes, and that is just a SHAME a supposed 'rocker', supPOSED rocker, likes that **** !!!!!!

Go Lordi!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hard Rock Halleluja!!!!!!!! God they ROCK!!!!! It's awesome!!!!!

Opeth suck *** asnyway, so what kind of music 'taste' would they have, euro-pop, euro-poop? LAME OPETH![/QUOTE]

Based on his track record and his supposed record collection, Mikael Akerfelt is totally entitled to say certain bands suck, and in the case of Lacuna Coil, point out the obvious.

i think its hillarious when all these people hear some rockstar talk **** about another band and take it extreemly seriously. rediculous

If you're referring to me, I wasn't taking it seriously.

^/talking in general

I just found a site to make rings tones, and I turned Patterns in the Ivy into one.

Even more hilarious considering all THEY do is talk s[COLOR="Black"]h[/COLOR]it about bands.I guess when you have success, you arent entitled to negative opinions about bands.

[QUOTE]I just found a site to make rings tones, and I turned Patterns in the Ivy into one[/QOUTE]

Nice!Link please.

MOst cell phones have like editors to create music, although if it's a monophonic cellphone it will sound crappy.

Anyhow, most modern cell phones have infrared ports to trade info with say, lap tops capable for such tasks and you can create midi's using programs like Huitar Pro, then load them into your cell phone and Presto! you get a ringtone. Sony Ericsson's and Nokia's have the best user interfaces.

7th - Nottingham, Rock City
8th - Manchester, Academy
9th - London, Roadhouse

I've just creamed my pants! I missed out on them last year but this year, I will see them.

Rock City AGAIN?! Get in!

I'll be going from having to travel to London to see what i though was my only Opeth opportunity, to seeing them close to 5 times. Thank you Opeth :)

Last time rock city was an 18+ so I couldn't go. My best bet is probably the Birmingham Academy.

Manchester or Nottingham for me! This will be my first Opeth gig. :o

Edit: Oh, and about Mikael saying he thinks other bands suck... I don't think it's the wisest move on his part, and it sort of puts him down a little in my books. Saying they don't like the music is fine, saying the band sucks though seems childish and much more easily for a band to take personally, especially if they end up in similar circles. I wouldn't want to meet up with a band who I said sucked in an interview. If i'd said I didn't like their music much, however, I wouldn't mind meeting them as people.

Having said that, I don't really care, he's allowed an opinion and he's allowed to express it. No need for anyone to get worked up over a musician expressing themselves.

Man, seeing them in a university sized venue is gonna be great.

Also means I am now gonna be seeing Opeth and Porcupine Tree in 1000 max sized venues :cool:

Where/when are you seeing Porcupine Tree? I would love to see them.

Opeth aren't touring America again anytime soon, are they?

You going to the Manchester one? She informs me she'd rather go see them than Opeth.

Still hoping to get her to go to both tho.

By the time November comes, that will be my 3rd time seeing them. :cool:

I hope they go on a U.S. tour again soon.

Yup, I'm going to the Manch one.

Then Opeth in November.

My Autumn/Winter ftw.

It's times like this where I wish I lived in Europe.

I bought my ticket just there.

I've never listened to Porcupine Tree... they're touring... Should I go anyway?

I went on an Opeth marathon last night. I listened to 4 albums in a row.

[QUOTE=Moses]I went on an Opeth marathon last night. I listened to 4 albums in a row.[/QUOTE]

Which 4 ?

Hmmm... Orchid, Blackwater Park, Ghost Reveries, and Damnation.

One of these days I'll do that with all 8.

I know, I would but I don't have that kind of time. That'd be about 8 hours of my life enjoyed but simply gone.
