    the 5 worsts opeth's song?

    --Wreath (The first part of the song, that repeats throughout, there's just someting wrong with it) --Dirge For November (The heavy part in the middle is kind of droning and doesn't go anywhere) --Any three tracks off of Orchid other than "Twilight is my Robe" and "Apostle in Triumph" (Not...

    Shirt's Available at the Concert's?

    Wow, in the tons of concerts I've been to, it's been very rare that a shirt has sold out by the end.....I always get my merch after the show so that I don't have to hold it/get it all sweaty and dirty throughout the evening.......I can't speak for Opeth specifically though, 'cause the only time...

    The monopoly that is Ticketmaster! (and why I may not see Opeth this tour)

    I once had to pay an $11/ticket service charge for a Tool concert. :bah:

    DVD no longer available at THE END???

    Man, The End has always been super fast and 100% on point, but it seems like since they took time off over the holidays, their whole operation has slowly started to go to shit..........and they raised a lot of the prices, too.:erk:

    DVD no longer available at THE END???

    Haha, yeah, I wasn't planning on waiting, I just told them to send the rest of the order now. However, I expect (read: hope) that the delay last time was in waiting for NTSC versions to be made available, which wouldn't be a problem this time.

    DVD no longer available at THE END???

    I've been seeing that people have been waiting weeks, whereas I've never had to wait for more than 4 days. That's why I always order 3 or more items at a time....they send your stuff with priority shipping for free.

    DVD no longer available at THE END???

    I just ordered it last night, perhaps I got their last in stock? If so, then part of me feels bad, but most of me feels pretty "HA HA, I OWN YOU" Seriously though, the way The End runs, if it's included in your fulfillment e-mail, it means they had it in-stock and included it in your order...

    Still Life - a bad album?

    SL is my second favorite Opeth album, next to MAYH. What can I say, I'm a sucker for concept albums. However, I think that The Moor is terribly overrated, Godhead's Lament and Face of Melinda own that cd. The chorus ("white face, haggard grin.....") section is the best part of SPD. I don't...

    other projects devin produced?

    December is a really good "noisy tech-metalcore" band. Breakdowns with lots of groove, an awesome screech/roar from the vocalist........IMO, it's like Dillenger Escape Plan if they payed more attention to writing catchy and cohesive songs, and less time trying to be so complex.

    My top ten records of the year...

    Devin's my favorite artist, but I'm pressed for time, so you're gonna get the short explanation: He's the vocalist/guitarist/brain behind Strapping Young Lad, and has also done vocals for Steve Vai, and production for December, Lamb of God, Soilwork, and been involved with a slew of other...

    Bought Morningrise...

    I've seen every Opeth album aside from Still Life at the FYE's around here.... But I don't understand why it's such a chore for people to find the CDs at a decent price, The End has them all for no more than $12.
