You're right tho', way too many off topic Opeth discussions lately.


6666 posts bitches!!!

So I've heard. Their other stuff worth getting though?

And I strongly agree with Zeph.

Get Craft's Fuck The Universe and Total Soul Rape albums . Trust me, you won't be disappointed in either.

I like the songs i've heard off the new Abigail Williams album, it's better than their Legend EP.

 

[Mikko666]

quick question: Shaxul is the singer on the two Manifestation releases by DsO, yes?

Not only the singer but the creator of all the songs before SMRC, that's why the new stuff is so emotionless and directionless without him.

I'm pretty sure that he didn't write all of those songs. If he was actually the band leader and only creative force and songwiter in the band, he'd probably be able to legally claim ownership of the name and stop the others from using it, something that I'd love to see him try to do.

I'm pretty sure that he wrote a lot of the lyrics, but he didn't write the music in all likelihood. Oh, and for the record, I actually like the first two Deathspell Omega albums and the Manifestations stuff a lot.

Quite ironic statement when one takes your name into consideration.

 

[MasterOLightning]

I don't doubt that there was some change in where the creative influence came from between Manifestations II and SMRC. I don't feel comfortable commenting further, considering I haven't heard anything else Hasjarl did. Yet, what I've heard from Clandestine Blaze is not enough to suppose that Mikko Aspa had much to do with any albums besides vocals. I'd love to have more info about all of this, but when a band decides to be secretive, they invite rumors.

Has anyone heard Cultes des Ghoules - Häxan? Very good evil sounding black metal. got this cd from NWN!

 

[skeptik]

One of the best of 2008.

 

[Koude Haat]

agreed.

MOL: I have a slight inkling that Mikko also drums for DSO now...slight...inkling.

 

[ossa]

Is anyone else here really obsessed with Wyrd's "Heathen"?

I could listen to that song all day.

 

[Omni]

I like that album and Huldrafolk quite a bit, and most of his other stuff, although I think that Kammen drags a lot. I'd like it a lot more if every song was only half or a third as long as it is.

I kind of think he played on SMRC. I'm pretty sure the drummer there is not who played on the earlier work. The drumming on Fas is so technical and proficient that it's hard to believe he could make such a leap, especially considering all the time spent on other projects and his record label.

yeah, they were sweet

The Manifestations compilations contain my favorite DsO material.

Love that song.

Well, the guitar playing is certainly improved on Fas... than the other records. I can see how the whole band had just decided to play in a raw style before but had the talent to do what they do now.
