    Hey Jesse...

    Opethian, I've just been using the Berlitz Swedish book and tape. It teaches you basic "tourist" Swedish. I guess I should mention though that my girlfriend happens to be from Varberg on the west coast of Sweden, so that's one hell of an advantage. It goes like this, I'll say something in...

    No Devotion, Daylight Dies, various other madness

    No Devotion may just be the single most hopeless and emotionally resigned piece of music I think I have ever heard. I was just listening to this on the way home from work and it hit me. I almost burst into tears in traffic! Heh heh! This song is in a class all it's own. Of course this all may...

    Anathema does a preety good copy-paste on some of my fave bands!

    Amen to that!! Great of you to mention Jeff Buckley too! He is among the artists that I worship. You talk about deep feeling, his music abounds with it. Up there on my list with Red House Painters (a band I can't stop mentioning, eh?) and the new gods Daylight Dies. Shameless, I know, but hey...

    Jonas and his vocal production

    I'm gonna have to agree with you there discouraged1. Especially since you mention Quiet World which is so desperately beautiful in the melody. Sometimes the overall feeling of a song is made that much better by what's missing in the production. Listen to "Song for a Blue Guitar" by the Red House...

    Am I being really dense?

    For some reason I thought it was his kid's reflection in the rearview... What I'm wondering is what on earth is going on at the end of "Temporary Peace"? They're walking on the beach....One of em talking to himself (?) and the other one going on about dogs and cat and chickens. Am I missing...
