Camel Similarities

[Achernar]

Anyone heard some Camel Similarities in Opeth? Well if not try out Breathless or Never Let Go and hear Benighted right next! Anyway, it's great stealing some riffs as an hommage (Camel really rulez, and so does Opeth). I wander if Mikael's middle name would be Latimer...hope not!

I don't see any similarities between Opeth and Camel musically, but if you have heard Sörskogen you can definitely find Camel influences! Hammond stuff, different drum ryhtms and so on...

Sörskogen and Camel rules!!

Yep, the Benighted intro riff is kind of half-stolen from Never Let Go... The Camel similarities are more in the choice of melodies, in the feel of melodies maybe.
