Come up with a reason that would not make Opeth the greatest band in the world

[Koi]

Never in my life have i heard of a purely genious discography,
but with a long musical past Opeth are pretty damn close...with only a couple of tracks that wont satisfy me as a song but by being moodfillers, opeth have truly opened my eyes for music and changed the path for me, almost that it´s homosexually touching... They make music a journey, greater than any book or movie in my opinnion, since you get to use youre imagination and hear the atmospheres (MAYH&Still life), and the music it self is truly spectacular in every way... They have truly made life more intresting.

Your so going to get flammed on this board for that homosexual thing you just said.

 

[Koi]

probably ;P

 

[Koi]

No but seriously, any arguments?

BIG FUCKIN LOL

Anyway, that aside, a couple reasons why Opeth aren't the greatest band in the world....

-The Beatles
-Porcupine Tree
-Pink Floyd

I need arguments, with the examples..but yes those are some worthy competitors.
But what would make them better? exept for their reputation. I must agree on that Porcupine Tree come close, but i disagree that The Beatles and Pink Floyd would musically be able to outdo opeth. Yes those are some brave and big words i am using, but i seriously mean it.

Whoa, those are big words.

Opeth are amazing and creative, but Pink Floyd and the Beatles are both more so.

I mean.....

Look at Black Rose Immortal vs. Echoes. As good as BRI does, it goes down in round 1.

How about the fact that their drummer M.Lopez doesn't tour with them ??

 

[Ermz]

I'd participate... but then I'd also get fired

So umm yeah. I cannot find a single reason to fault Opeth, as they are the greatest band in the world and an absolute joy to work for.

 

[Koi]

Jude: Howbout the fact that allmost everything opeth has done is by far more creative than anything pink floyd has ever done,
and would "revolver" really beat "still life"?

dsk: What´s your point?

 

[neilyoungfan]

because led zeppelin exists

 

[Koi]

Arguments i tell you, arguments!

My point is that the greatest band ever would have 1 great drummer who both recorded and played live. At the moment, Opeth are touring with a fill-in drummer because of concerns with M.Lopez. This touring drummer not doubt does a great job, however, as far as I can tell, he is not part of the "band". Lopez, as far as I can tell, is part of the "band". How can the greatest "band" of all time have 1 drummer at home and 1 for the road. If they really were the greatest, then only 1 drummer would be required for home and away.

 

[Koi]

Well, i purely meant musically.
So you mean The Beatles would have fired the drummer for having a blood disease?

 

[Koi]

Led Zeppelin have their moments, but they are far from compeating with Opeth.

P.T.? .... .... .... .... ....

 

[dsk]

Put it this way:
Would U rather see M. Axenrot or M.Lopez drumming if Opeth were playing in your town??

 

[Koi]

I can understand that youre pissed, i am too for that the bloodbath drummer replaced lopez in Gothenburg... But how does it lower their musical achievements?

i think a certain someone would say "de...li..ver...ance..."
