    New Blog from Mike

    Just like they did on that gig as well, it has nothing to do with the country...the thing is though, I`ve listened to Harvest a billion times, but in that very moment I just could remember bits of the lyrics...and I guess I wasn´t the only one in that situation. However, I had the feeling...

    Opeth at Summerbreeze 09

    At first I thought that Soldier of Fortune was actually in the setlist...even cooler that it wasn´t. The guitar fuck up wasn´t that bad for me, they made the best out of it and the fans did too I think. And it was the first time I saw Opeth on a stage as big as that Main Stage...I was in the...

    ...Ever cried to Opeth?

    A song that makes you cry doesn´t have to be sad.

    Hessian Peel

    Isn´t "hessian" a phrase that is also used among record collectors to describe old vinyls that are full of scratches and stuff? I think Mike once said something like that in an interview.

    Did Opeth ever....?

    Most songs on Damnation for me, especially To Rid the Disease and Weakness. And of course To Bid You Farewell. Those kinda stuff depends somehow on how you break up and for which reasons. In my case it was changing from stuff like Blackfield and softer Porcupine Tree to Pantera and...

    Will people stop screaming when opeth plays soft interludes

    Totally agree...I would even go that far and say that this has increased during the years, because now you might have more people in the audience that just want to see this "new popular metal band" and don´t give a fuck about Opeth themselves. If you really respect their music, you shut the hell...

    I wonder what Mike thinks about Agalloch

    ^ They will never learn it. @mike´s post: I think he made the same mistake as most people when it comes to music like that, hearing one song briefly doesn´t reveal the band to you. When I first heard PF I was like "err...stop button please", but it got better eveytime I heard it. Anyway...

    Any one know of a great annual european metal festival?

    Opeth will play here in Germany at the Summer Breeze-Festival, and the rest of the line-up is also pretty nice this year.

    Most Poetic Opeth Album

    Damnation for me. Although it has the fewest lyrics of all Opeth-Albums. Might be though that I chose that album simply because of the musical beauty it has, but the lyrics go so damn well with it. I would put MAYH 2nd.

    Backward Message

    Don´t think so man...there is always some dude making a youtube-video with parts like that played backwards (and I am pretty sure that Mike knows that).

    The "Deliverance" Thread

    I consider Damnation being the darker one. Deliverance was the first Opeth album I bought (I think in early 2003), and from there it has had a heavy influence on my musical taste and also on my drumming. And I will never get the BTPISIO-hate, although that is only a forum thing I believe.
