No, this obviously means Steve Wilson is producing their album.

I may be an idiot, but anyone notice a certain someone at 2:05 in this clip? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KD7_uiVHVw&feature=related why would they be hanging out... :)

Do you mean overgained? It is a fair bit. Sucks. The main place you can spot my Kata influence is in the chords. I mostly try to stay away from straight power chords and always use the cool ones with more character they tend towards.

My band Into the Ocean has just put out our first EP "RUINS" at www.intotheocean.bandcamp.com I write all the music and do the production and, as Katatonia is easily my favourite band and biggest influence, I thought it might be interesting to post it here. I don't know if the Kata influence...

Any chance of the patch?

All there albums have different things to like in my opinion. I think many people would agree with Blackwater Park of Still Life being a good direction to go in. Personally I think listening to Ghost Reveries before the others might give a bit of a skewed perspective of the band.

I hated it so much at first. I love it now. It didn't really grow on me or anything, just one time I listened to it and it clicked.

I don't think the fact there are rip-offs is up for dispute here? Everyone here has acknowledged it, therefore I'm not going to waste my time.

Its weird for me. Some Katatonia lyrics make me cringe, some are really good. And then there are some that are flawed but the expression makes them perfect.

Its not trolling to express a concern about one of my favourite bands. It reallly irks me how much everyone here has over-simplified my point. No, I'm not upset that Opeth use chords or notes that other people have used before. The part in the song I have referred to is a direct copy of an...

If some shithouse metalcore band stole an opeth riff or idea you guys would never shut up about it. But when Mike steals riffs its creative? If creatively stealing is what you appreciate fine, I'd rather originality. I'm not talking about influence here and similar moods, but outright taking of...

I didn't ever really care about this, but sometimes its just so blatant that it annoys me. It makes me think that, given how obscure Mike's taste in music is, how much stuff does he "borrow" that we'll never know about. Don't get me wrong, I still love the band... but its just really bad form I...

Hi Farmakon guys. Found "A Warm Glimpse" in a CD store in Australia a few years ago, listened to it all the time on the train. Robin was pretty good, but I think "A Warm Glimpse" suited my mood at the time perfectly. Its cool to see an awesome band having band dramas just like everyone else...

Don't be a dick

Had to do a film for class. This is inspired by Katatonia (in mood, no music used).
