The clean vocals I heard on the myspace song made me want to puke.

Something they have in common with Opeth, actually.
You sound like a press release.

Actually no. Tell me when Enslaved have ever sounded like Swedish death metal mixed with sped up Iron Maiden.

funny that you make that comparison because enslaved have become more proggy while opeth have become less proggy they're like ying and yang/alpha and omega/peanut butter and jelly

The first two Opeth albums are pure Gothenburg, with the exception of the lyrical content. The amount of dual harmonies are a dead giveaway.

Comparing 2000's Enslaved to 2000's Opeth is something that can be done with a purpose. However, the first two Opeth albums are primarily distinguished by their song structure, progressive/experimental leanings, and extensive use of acoustic guitar. It's a huge reach to identify them as Gothenburg. Sure, they're from Sweden, but Forgotten Woods and the first Ulver album are much closer musically than any Gothenburg stuff. And whether anyone wants to believe it or not, Gothenburg covers the late '90s/early '00s sound that In Flames, Soilwork, Dark Tranquility and others got into, and Opeth never approached that. It's borderline silly to discuss Opeth as a Gothenburg band. Oddly enough, I think the lyrics are actually pretty in line with what you might see on a Gothenburg album. And it's not like Iron Maiden has exclusive license on dual guitar melodies anyway.
I didn't want to derail the thread, but that point was wrong on so many levels.

Has anyone listened to the latest Sig:Ar:Tyr album? I know it'll be of interest to Einherjar, Eligos and Unknown for sure, the album is great! Some 'Forgotten Legends' era Drudkh influence in there as well as trad. metal and lots of awesome acoustic interludes. He mixes all the influences so well, phenomenal album. The end of 2010 is shaping up to make the year great.

^ no it's cool, what you've written is constructive, even if I don't agree with it.
Unfortunately he's right.

Opeth has never sounded "Gothenburg", not even if you compare Orchid or Morningrise to early Gothenburg albums like A Velvet Creation.

Yeah I just got that one, pretty sick stuff!
And seriously the Enslaved/Opeth topic needs to gtfo. As much as I love Opeth (obviously) this is the black metal thread

I love how you have nothing constructive to add, so you keep making stupid posts like that because you feel like you just HAVE to get a word in. Run home to Mummy.

It's easier than arguing with you as far as black metal is concerned.
I've never really liked the Enslaved I've heard. How's their earlier stuff?
