I like the crappy sound.

True true

Look on youtube. There are plenty of examples of one-man covers, especially of Opeth accoustics.

Exactly. I always thought the cover of had nothing to do with the actual name. I thought the chick was melinda and all that. The name still life was taken from another band.

Looks like someone over at Criminal Minds is an Opeth fan and was willing to sacrifice technique just to get that in there.

First Utterance is the best album ever recorded.

I bet if you asked Mikael about the meaning behind the title 'Still Life' you'd get the same answer he gives for Blackwater Park. It's a cool name stolen from a band. And although I love to disect Opeth's lyrics and think about some kind of deeper meaning, I really think they're just there...

If you watch the video, you'll notice the bit where Per comes in and sings the lower part: (you're close to the final word etc.) Also, in the other parts you can hear the distinct difference between comfortable Mike and uncomfortable mike. Devious movements in your eyes - Uncomfortable...

The Grand Conversation

IIRC, in one of the threads someone found a very rare track that actually had the same notes.

You're not wrong. Mike said the album is about things that disgust him or something. I think it's about all things nasty.

Good to see he's doing his job. But really, at least it's good to see that some movement has been achieved.

Did it explode like on the Simpsons? I'd buy the thing if I could afford it and if I lived in the right place.

I prefer studio, definitely. Unless you have to visuals, live recordings suck. I do like the live version of closure though.

He speaks English better than most anglophones. Maybe it's the grammar? "The last album that we done called damnation."
