Jazz was/is quite a big influence on a number of prog bands and so it may not be entirely unfair to think that Opeth is influenced somewhat by jazz, but that raises an interesting question: Who the fuck hasn't been in some way influenced by jazz? Jazz probably has tendrils reaching into virtually any genre. It could even be that some band wanted to reach a level of musical sophistication similar to that of jazz, but that is still something of an influence. Or maybe someone was listening to Sun Ra or Thelonius Monk or something and suddenly got this great idea for a lead guitar part. Who knows?
But what a stupid fucking issue to cunt all over someone else about.
