Why can't the guy just start a prog side project and not change the Opeth sound? ack. i knew the loss of Peter Lindgren and Martin Lopez would spell the demise of this band. Watershed has lost a lot of appeal to me, it still has some very enjoyable moments but it lacks so much character. i knew the next step was going to be way more boring prog. You mean the loss of two guys that hadn't written any material in years? or in lopez's case, ever? Mikael would have written Watershed regardless of those two being in the band or not. |
| _____________________________ [Mar 8,2010 3:16pm - Yeti ""] i don't know if it would have been as straightforward, especially with Lopez on drums. he had an incredible flair that is completely gone. agreed though, Watershed would still have been written however i think it would have been different. though vocally it still would be mostly singing. |
| ___________________________________________ [Mar 8,2010 3:32pm - neverpurified nli ""] I don't see why everybody is so critical of Martin Axenrot either, the guy is a monster of a drummer. His drums sound incredible on the new record too. |
| _____________________________ [Mar 8,2010 3:37pm - Yeti ""] i just don't think he fits in Opeth. he is phenomenal in Bloodbath, and his other projects. however the flair is gone. |
| __________________________________ [Mar 8,2010 3:51pm - dreadkill ""] i like watershed a lot, but it's nothing to crud your undies over. |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 8,2010 3:53pm - arilliusbm ""] I prefer the original lineup. |

| ___________________________________________ [Mar 8,2010 4:20pm - neverpurified nli ""] look at you, mr. technicality |

Akerfeldt will always be Opeth. I might not be too enthusiastic about what he's writing these days, but the guy is a master composer. I've never heard anyone write or perform songs the way he does. |

GODDAMN YOU AND YOUR WEEKDAY SHOWS! the one song i've wanted to see live is April Ethereal. i've seen every other song from that album except Karma. argh. |
| __________________________________________ [Apr 1,2010 9:08am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] I'm glad the one Damnation track they're playing is Hope Leaves. Fucking brilliant song. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 1,2010 9:15am - soilworker ""] one week away can wait got tix and a room |
| _________________________________ [Apr 1,2010 9:41am - sinistas ""] Cool setlist. I'd love to see Harlequin Forest live. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 1,2010 10:38am - Yeti ""] the one thing i'm banking on is that it won't sound nearly as good as it would have 10 years ago. his voice has really degraded, and the members that made the songs so intense are gone. and they fuck up some parts in older songs, when they do "The Night and the Silent Water" they always screw up the end, and that's the best part. |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 1,2010 10:39am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] You're depressing me =( |
| ______________________________ [Apr 1,2010 10:41am - Yeti ""] GO LISTEN TO OPETH THEN, CAPTAIN SOBBY |
| ___________________________________________ [Apr 1,2010 10:52am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""] Can't. I'll end up putting on older Opeth and it will make me lament for the past. |

| _____________________________________________ [Apr 8,2010 12:20am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Overall this show was awesome, but Mikael's growls fucking SUCKED until "The Moor." Also, fuck people clapping to the rhythm of songs. I came to hear Opeth, not an off-beat human metronome. |
