    Next Opeth observation: Jens or SW?

    I say Steven Wilson. I think Jens' production sounds cleaner, but less atmospheric and unique sounding. For example, the guitars may not be as full or fat sounding on BWP or Deliverance, but I think everything fit together to make a really cool sound with those three album SW did with them...

    Have you ever bought an album 'cuz Mike told you to?

    Camel, for sure, but not because he said to listen to them. Only because I wanted to find out what Camel song "Ending Credits" was apparently ripped off from. But I ended up figuring he just meant the feel of the song was like Camel, but I ended up liking Camel alot too.

    Next Opeth Album

    I don't think I'd enjoy a total return to any of their previous albums, just because it would be kind of lame to just go back to a sound they had years ago. But, I think one of the things I do miss about Still Life/BWP is the roughness of the production (it wasn't as pristine and clear as GR...

    Sad Day for all Floyd Fans

    very upsetting news. I've been listening to Floyd all day and bumming out about that. He was one of the best keyboard players out there in my opinion, just for his creativity and some of the creepy/cool/beautiful things he added to Pink Floyd's stuff. He made a great impact on music, and...

    How do they..

    I don't know about those guys in particular, but I know when I'm playing a song, especially my own bands songs, it's easy to memorize them because the song sort of plays in my head and the progression of the riffs comes naturally to me. I'm guessing that's how it must be for most bands

    growls low in the mix

    I don't really see that the volume of the growls makes a big difference. It still sounds like any opeth album to me, the growls sound like they're at a fine mix I don't see how you can nit-pick something like that so much and be so concerned with it.

    What is your SECOND favorite band?

    1. Iron Maiden 2. Opeth Not that I can take anything away from opeth because they're the shit, but I just like maiden a little more Edit: I'm actually surprised at the number of other people who put maiden above opeth, I didn't think alot of dudes around here liked maiden more than opeth

    Prog Quiz (Sorry, if it was posted before....)

    I think SW's just a big prog rock nerd. I'm thinking that there's people out there that know so much about say, star wars or lord of the rings that they could rattle off answers as fast as SW was about prog rock bands. Plus you can't really tell if it took him like 5 minutes and they only...

    "The cough"

    I can definitely go along with that. But even on the original I heard him say "melinda" in there, he probably just recorded melinda over the sigh/cough/ghost whatever originally.

    Whose cover did you like more of Remember Tomorrow?

    yea that was pretty cool. Labrie will never be as good as bruce, but he did pretty awesome on most of it. when I originally saw this album/tracklisting on Maiden's site the only track I was interested in hearing was this one. Metallica's cover of remember tomorrow sounded like garbage. I...

    Watershed: Are you disapointed with it?

    same. I feel like one of the few people that didn't like GR as much as the other albums, and I think watershed's definitely above deliverance and GR for me. Just my opinion though.

    Only for musicians?

    I got this girl I used to go out with into Opeth like 3 years ago and now she's really super into them and forgot all about most of the crap music she used to listen to.
