Note: Yes, this is posted on the Opeth forum but I thought all my fellow Swano friends might enjoy it too --- I wasn't originally going to post this... but what the hell! Here's a example of what happens when you take away my acoustic guitar, put my Ibanez in my hands, let me pick out a drum...

I wasn't originally going to post this... but what the hell! Here's a example of what happens when you take away my acoustic guitar, put my Ibanez in my hands, let me pick out a drum loop, give way to complete insanity, and let me improv one pass each on two different guitar tracks. Download...

Anyone have any more Nightingale/Swano covers recorded or near completion? I'm really looking forward to hearing more. As a side note, if anyone has a cover recorded and is concerned about the sound quality, I'd be more than happy to mix and/or master it for you. I enjoy doing it. Besides...

How important are critic's opinions to you when it comes to buying music? Do you feel that a good review, or series of good reviews, are a critical factor in whether or not you buy a CD? Or, do you shun the critics and make up your own mind entirely?

There used to be static. Static in the air, speeding across cities and towns, then hurtling upwards and into the infinity that is space. A blank visual white nolse that lasted for a brief moment. And then, in 5, 4, - to silent countdown with hand signals - 3, 2, 1: A test pattern appeared for a...

Welcome back, Lina!:D :D :D You were missed... even if it was just for a couple of days!:p

My producer and I had a discussion about this yesterday: Is there any music that you, as a musician, think of as "sacred"? What I mean is, you conciously choose only to listen to it and never try to learn how to play it yourself. As if actually learning how a artist plays their particular...

Just throwing this musical question out for conversation: Do you sometimes listen to a band's album and it just doesn't "click" with you immediately? Not that it's bad or you simply don't like it, it just doesn't push your buttons the right way at the time. Then, one random day when you...
