Blackwater Concept?

[opethpainter]

Ghost reveries did have a concept actually.

They just strayed from it because mike liked isolation years so much.

oooh... and this ends the story.
the other 2 concept albums by opeth are MAYH and SL. NO ONE ELSE!

 

[Scourge of Malice]

No concept but I believe Mikael has mentioned a theme having to do with the overall wickedness of the world or something like that...

 

[Samanosuke]

I think the concept was to make money and get laid.

This.

There isn't a "concept" as clear as on MAYH or SL but there is a theme running through most of the lyrics and a lot of persistent motifs.

well, mikael said that was a period where he basically couldn't trust in anyone, thinking everyone was going to put him in troubles.

but i intend a concept album when there's a story to tell, and songs are linked together like chapters in a book. in bwp there's NO concept.
in ghost reveries THERE IS, not solid like in still life, but the fisrt 7 out of 8 songs are all linked.

these are my last words in this thread, then you can go on losing time trying to talk about things that don't exist.
