[QUOTE=relliK]Reverie/Harlequin Forest is my favorite song off the new album.The "A trail of sickness..." and the acoustic part that comes in at 5:07 are the parts in particular that get stuck in my head the most.

"Nocturnally helpless, weaken the lights
Depending on a prayer
Pacing desserted roads to find
A seed of hope"

That part is friggin awesome too.

Master's Apprentice was by far my favorite song on that album when I first bought it.The first riff is just soo infectious.As of late, I have grown more to like By the Pain I See in Others.It's so heavy.[/QUOTE]




Yea, exactly! The part that has been in my head ever since I heard it starts at around 5:36when the twin leads come in. It's so entrancing, beautiful writing on all parts.

Yeah, By The Pain I See In Others is a very lethal song. I listen to it all the time :) I love Deliverance.





''Rise to Submission!''

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Talented? hardly, every song sounds exactly the same. And its not good same either.[/QUOTE]

Under The Weeping Moon
In The Mist She Was Standing

Morningrise:
To bid your farewell
Black Rose Immortal
The Night and the Silent Water


My Arms, Your Hearse:

April Ethereal

Still Life:
Face Of Melinda
Godhead's Lament
The Moor

Blackwater Park:
The Funeral Portrait
Blackwater Park
The Leper Affinity

Deliverance
A Fair Judgement
Deliverance
By The Pain I See In Others

It was boring. I've had a better rise listening to whitesnake. :thumb:

Anyone have the lyrics to Reverie/Harlequin Forest yet?

Anyone have the lyrics for any song? lol, please if you do email them to me, thanks!!

It loses me on the growling.I think I get the clean parts pretty well though.

[QUOTE=relliK]It loses me on the growling.I think I get the clean parts pretty well though.[/QUOTE]



I wanted more growling on it :(

I like the growling... but i love the mix of the more hardcore melodic death metal style background w/ the light vocals... it's soo coo ^_^:;

i <3 atonement as well as Isolation years.... those 2 songs are bombbb like the new Still Day Beneath the Sun or Benighted lol

Oh, come on guys...you can't mention "reasons why Opeth rule" and not bring up the song Godhead's Lament. The vocal/acoustic passages are just pure gold, and the heavy passages are amazing.

godheads lament is my favorite opeth song...and dirge for november.

[QUOTE=Dannyboy15]godheads lament is my favorite opeth song...and dirge for november.[/QUOTE]
agreed, although Dirge of November didn't catch on to me.. TOO Much that is, I have listened to each song according to my counter (i formatted a month ago lol) over 500 times X_X now ghost reveries, which i downloaded earlier tonight, 23 each track (loop playlist) I wuv opeth

Yes that is an awesome song such moments of brutality and such serene moments, start a convo about their lyrics, because theu're so beautiful and heartwrenching.

Flynn, was it you that wanted the lyrics to Harlequin Forest? I wrote them down the last time I listened to it so I could sing/growl along. It's my absolute favorite off the new album. It leads me to think Mikael's been reading Dante. The harlequin forest probably refers to the forest of the suicides. Eh.

Harlequin forest/Reverie

Into the trees
First light abounds
I'm further away
From my home
Baying behind me, i hear the hounds
Dogs chasing to find me, alone

A trail of sickness leading to me
if i am h(a)unted, then you will see
Search in the darkness, an emptiness
I'm hiding away from the sun

Will never rest, never be at ease
All my matters expire so I run

The trail of sickness leading to me
If I am haunted, then you will see

The dogs have arrived
Drives against the pain
Same regret that there was
INstrument of guilt before me

You thought youd seen it all
and you barely can survive
and you face the demons
as death becomes a gift
You're the laughing stock
of a (__ nightmare)?
Confessions stuck in your mouth
Like demons in their...

Nocturnally helpless, weakened in the light
Depending on a prayer
Facing deserted roads at night
A seed of hope

They are the trees, Rotten folk inside
Everywhere
Roots are sunken, fever from my source
Time bounds the future of all lies

Tales of false pretension, Harlequin forest
Awaiting redemption for a lifetime
yes, They die alone with no one by their side

Raaa

Darkened and troubled nature,
Close your inner soul
Unforgiven Beast inside,
Dank is your suffering, contort(?)

The woods are burning
Tearing us all asunder
Still by the smoldering earth/air.

Mikeal's lyrics are one thing that makes Opeth so different from a lot of ''DEATH''metal bands ;)

Mikeal should write a poetry book :)

Indeed he should, its funny because he said he doesn't consider himself a good lyricist... I think he's awesome... never wrote bad lyrics.

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Indeed he should, its funny because he said he doesn't consider himself a good lyricist... I think he's awesome... never wrote bad lyrics.[/QUOTE]
are you serious? he doesn't think hes good? he's friggin amazing, i love his lyrics :) ... Wait wait wait

POLL:
IF MIKAEL WAS THE LEADER OF A CULT, WOULD YOU BE ENCHANTED BY HIS LYRICS?
- Yes I would
- No I wouldn't
- Mikael? Cult? Isn't he allready in a cult?
- What the ****?
- Maybe

:-D
"Yes i would" = my answer lol

Wait
there's a messup (the only one from what i hear I THINK) the reverie/harlequin forest lyrics,
of a (__ nightmare)?
If i'm correct, he says ' of the absent minded, i think... and the H(a)unted, i think it's haunted, not hunted, idk why he'd emphasize it and make it sound so much like an A if it was hunted lol

thanks so much for the lyrics :-D

edit,

Facing deserted roads at night
A seed of hope

i think he says
Facing deserted roads to find
A seed of hope

and

yes, They die alone with no one by their side
He says like i think 4 more words after ' by their side ' can you try to find out what they are? it goes to fast lol

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Indeed he should, its funny because he said he doesn't consider himself a good lyricist... I think he's awesome... never wrote bad lyrics.[/QUOTE]


indeed, it's one the documentary part of the dvd not?

I find it hilarious how he can be so modest when his lyrics are just genious.
I honestly wish I could ever come up with poetry like that. let alone his guitar and compositional skills within Opeth.
he is not a mirracle but incredible in any way as far as metal/rock music goes.
he's just so diverse

[QUOTE=the2stranger]indeed, it's one the documentary part of the dvd not?[/QUOTE]
Correct.

To DesiOzymandias, there is an Opeth cult on the internet somewhere, my bass player joined a while ago... they were like "all hail lord Åkerfeldt!!", and treating him as if he's a god. My bass player joined as a joke though.

...... realy? that's wierd lol my bad thou i was juss makin that as kinda a f unny thing


ok here's my corrected version of Harlequin forest/reverie lyrics... thanks to addicted_tochaos for the orig, please feel free to corect :-P

Still by the smoldering air.

This band sucks, i can't even tell you how much. Heavy Metal sucks. AAHHHHHHH
Why dont you "sing" about reality instead of these fake made up worlds you are living. bands like opeth, and cradle of filth make me sick. Time to grow up.

Now that was "Coldblooded"

**** off noob we don't need your ****.

[QUOTE=Dannyboy15]**** off noob we don't need your ****.[/QUOTE]



AAAAHHHHH, But you do. What is a noob, AAAAAHHHH, sounds made up.

Reality awaits you. Take It

To coldblooded, I do not mind that you do not like band such as htis. but I would like to hear a valid explination to why you do not like Opeth, and or heavy metal. I ust ask you why do you belive that opeth does not sing about reality? Listen to the song Still Day Beneath the Sun... That is just as real as your stupidity, If you're too lazy to do that, the song simply states how sad a person is after a lovedone died. Noob is'nt madeup, although it's not in the dictionary, it's slang.

Dannyboy15, Flaming this kid/girl wont help, he'll feed of of it and make you look like an idiot, outsmart him and he'll have to shutup becuaes he probably doesn't even know hwo Mikael is!!

In any case, I have allready taken reality, and what about you Coldblooded? Have you taken it? Because if you have, why are you on this site wasting your precious time in your realty flaming other people's interests? Whattype of music do you listen to? You tell me that, and i gaurentee you its' not reality, it's just another form of entertaiment to escape reality.

--DesiOzymandias

Just stop talking to Coldblooded. He's come here to make fun of everything.

Why bother teaching the ignorant when they don't wanna learn. Sure I could explain to him what's so great about opeth and heavy metal, but hes not gonna wanna listen.

well, why waste YOUR time replying, if you are trying to be the bigger person and this
Don't say anything

My opinion is mine, i know you wouldnt agree, but it seems pretty exhaustive to write a 3 paragraph explanation

cheers

I will say one thing to this though. Saying "[something] sucks" isn't having an opinion. It's making a completely ignorant statement, and makes you sound like a prick and is taken offensively.

Though it isn't much different, saying "I think [something] sucks" is having an opinion, and is taken respectfully and less offensively.

Yeah the sentances aren't much different, but the effect it has on people isn't the same, and very different.

Umm... you don't like Opeth, leave the thread then a[COLOR=White]s[/COLOR]s.

I wonder what kind of music he likes...

He is a stupid troll obviously just pay no attention to him.

You know those liquids under your sink? Yeah, I'm pretty sure they are Kool-aid. Why don't you go find out?

Why not just report him?

Did that a while ago.

Into the trees
Past meadow grounds
And further away
From my home

Baying behind me
I hear the hounds
Flocks chasing to find
Me out

A trail of sickness
Leading to me
If I am haunted
Then you will see

Searching the darkness
And emptiness
I'm hiding away
From the sun

Will never ends
Never be at ease
All my matters expire
So I run

A trail of sickness
Leading to me
If I am haunted
Then you will see

There drops another
That derives to ease the pain
In the same regret that there was(?)
Instrument of death before me

Looks of the safe hohfdpoefhf(?)
As you parish and survive
In the face of demons
As death becomes a gift

Your are the laughing stock
of the absent minded
Confessions stuck in your mouth
Now your demons live there

Nocturnally helpless, weaken the lights
Depending on a prayer
Pacing desserted roads to find
A seed of hope

They are, the trees
Rotten hope inside(?)
Never well
Roots are sunk in
Even from my source

Time bounds
The future for the lights

Mist of false pretention, Harlequin Forest
Awaiting redemption for a lifetime
As they die alone with no one by their side
As they forget

Dark and troubled nature
Voice of inner soul
A frigged beast inside(not sure if frigged is even a word)
Drain my flaming suffering, controlled(?)

Now the woods are burning
Herein life cuts us under(?)
Useless blacked remains
Still by a smoldering *insert unknown word here*



That's my interpetation so far.The previous lyrics helped me out a great dead.Good job with those.Perhaps someone could take all of ours and figure it out to perfection.
