To be honest, I could draw more similarities to Opeth than to Porcupine Tree in regards to the new Katatonia. Yes, it's less "unique" than their old stuff, but then again, it's also much more accessible. Many people might not like this comparison, because this is a band that's both loved...

Hey guys, Not to take any attention away from the upcoming masterpiece of Katatonia, but I know a lot of you also enjoy the band Ghost Brigade. If you haven't heard of them, they feature a very similar tone to that of Katatonia, with mixed Growls and Clean vocals. Their most recent...

So many better ones out there... Wreath - Deliverance Atonement - Reverie/Harlequin Forest Face of Melinda - Serenity Painted Death Coil - Heir Apparent

Similar riff rhythm, but completely different tone. Derelict herds has a much darker sound. It's no surprise that SW and Mikael would create similar sounding tracks though, considering how much they've done together. It's no more similar than Porcelain Heart and The Grand Conjuration.

Anathema is pretty cool, nice and mellow and has the dark/minor sound that opeth does

ZOMG Setlist please!

Selling out doesn't just mean you're becoming more popular or making more money. It doesn't have to do with the record label or anything like that. To sell out means to compromise your musical production (literally change the way you make your music) for the sole purpose of attracting more...

I'm not sure how I first heard about Opeth, but I think it was around 2004-2005. I was listening to stuff like In Flames at the time and hadn't really been exposed to growls yet. Also, the music i listened to was mostly fast/heavy and didn't have the emotion that a band like Opeth puts into...

So you explain the band's history... ...then you say that the album is great. Not much of a review. You could have said -why- you thought it was good, or named off some tracks and your thoughts on them, or given any type of constructive thought on the album.

I actually thought the exact opposite the first time I heard Hex Omega. As a standalone song I don't think it's anything fantastic. It's not a song I ever skip to (though usually I only listen to Watershed as one collective work, not for songs) but as the closer for an album I feel like it has...

Lucky fuckers... We get High on Fire and Nachtmystium here in the US... :Puke:

I just ordered the 5.1 mix of The Great Cold Distance through my local Border's book store. Using this method, i technically have no obligation to go purchase it once it comes in, but i probably will. However, I wanted to get a quick opinion on it before i do. I've really been into surround...

anyone got any in 1280x1024?

Sometimes after you've been with a person for a long time you find different ways to spice up the sex life. That's why people try different positions, different locations, etc. Haven't you ever been driving your car while listening to a really heavy song and you just couldn't resist going...

My last girlfriend and I had sex once to Blackwater Park (the album). When the Funeral Portrain came on we were both waaaaaay into it. Afterwards we both agreed that it was the best song ever to fuck to. Now i've just gotta find another girl that likes Opeth >< lol
