    Not that great? Really? Whatever Euro-poster is pissed at me for dissing Venom should be flaming you hardcore

    ghost reveries is a weak album?

    I'd never tell you what to think, Greasy. You think Watershed's their best? Great. I just don't. Doesn't mean I hate it.

    Angela Gossow sounds more masculine than KD does. He sucks. Concept albums were nothing new when he went solo, and not a damned thing about his act is original (oooooh I worship Satan!! Fear me....! My makeup looks like Gene Simmons'! And I sing like I have a twat!). Sounds like he's from...

    I figured I'd take a little heat for dissing Venom, but a King fan...I was not expecting that! Wasn't he in Mercyful Fate as well?

    ghost reveries is a weak album?

    ...Opeth wouldn't have had as much staying power as they have had the band not deconstructed their sound after every release. I mean, what would we talk about if every album sounded like Still Life (the consensus favorite "observation")? There is a lot of debate here about what is the...

    EDIT: BTW dude, i hope you didn't kill anyone who's not carrying a weapon :D Thankfully, I didn't kill anyone at all.

    Well, the first handful of times...hell no. But after a while, I felt like I could stay aware and enjoy some Wreath at the same time. I feel like it helped!

    Where were you when...

    ...you first heard Opeth's music? I did a search and could not find this topic...although I admit I think it's been done before. I was in Iraq surfing iTunes, looking for metal that I didn't think sounded like everything else. It was during one of those periods where the Internet wasn't...
