    Growls: How far could one go?

    In "between two worlds" the album of the superband band of Abbath "I" (that i looooove, i wish they make more albums!) he has lot of pitch changing growl for example in this song: go to 4:27 and many others of the same album... This side project changed a lot Abbath's voice style despite...

    How much copies did Opeth sold?

    yes i agree, unless Aky makes a featuring with Celine Dion :erk: Anyway, it's pretty distressing for me to know that Opeth are not such a big "celebrity band" I think about the fact that i will probably never improve myself (for example on song-writing) so much to reach the art of Michael...

    How much copies did Opeth sold?

    mmh ook? OK, at least Akerfeldt also said that after deliverance and damnation they started to live as musicians...and probably this is not because of the cds sold but for many live events where we all supported the band :)... anyway, after joining Peaceville / Rodrunner they released a...

    How much copies did Opeth sold?

    so that "about 2-3 million" was a random number? :| I think they started to make plenty of money with (and after) damnation, cause you know.... they obtained a large audience since it was not metal like the other albums. Indeed i'm pretty shure they sold more on Damnation than Deliverance or...

    How much copies did Opeth sold?

    Probably, but i searched the forum and there were no topics about that. Anyway, i think is pretty difficoult to find out because these "numbers" are known only if they are big, sometimes (like for movies) the number of copy sold is shown on wikipedia... Maybe Ghost Reveris was a best seller for...

    The Funeral Portrait Live?

    I like this song, specially the ending solos, but don't you think that Harlequin Forest is million times more "opeth rappresenting" than The Funeral Potrait? They never played live that song and in my opinion is absolutely one of the BEST songs they ever made. I'm still waiting mr...

    Opeth’s Equipment Thread

    holy f*ck! You are right, i didn't think about catching the clean sound and reamping it... That's cool, maybe they didn't have the problem of switching the tones on the pedalboard too because all was controlled by the sound engineers. That's why the changing between clean and distort are...

    Opeth’s Equipment Thread

    What do you mean about reamped? You mean that they take the original sound and they put another stage of distorsion/equalization in post production? It's odd because Mike himself says in the dvd during the show that "this is really how we sound like" or something like that... mhh..
