DAMNATION II IN THE FUTURE SOMETIME ?????????

[Nasty-Fire]

Damnation is too far from Opeth. Opeth must be heavy somewhere if you want my opinion.

 

[Guitar-Non-Player]

...
To answer the question, no.. I want something else.. Like a hiphop album, because Mike's never done that..

roflmao!

 

[Kristopher]

I think would be a pointless and recycled exercise,so no I would'nt be for it.And hey forget rap,I want Mike to go all punk on us

 

[Alteredmindeath]

I wasn't a huge fan of Damnation, but if they made something a little bit more creative and complex (with more acoustics, I wouldn't be dissapointed in anticipating another mellow album.

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

Damnation is one of my favorite Opeth albums, but I believe Mikael said that it was "a one-time deal," and that it would be unlikely for them to do another one.

Watershed is pretty mellow compared to their other non-Damnation stuff, though.

 

[Rogue Eagle]

no, I prefer the heavier songs. I'd rather want a BWP II.

Because the FAQ is somehow invisible to some people...

Why is Damnation so different to their other albums?

The idea was for the band to do one really heavy album after Blackwater Park. However, Mikael had all these acoustic parts that he didn't know what to do with. So a friend of theirs - Jonas from Katatonia - had the idea for the band to release an all-mellow album. Thinking this was a great idea, the band went ahead and created Damnation. It's an experiment, and as Mikael has said in the past: also exclusive. We shouldn't expect to see another album like this from Opeth.

Damnation sucks.
Only has 2.75 decent songs.

was a cool idea with damnation/deliverance, but i like deliverance because they didn't limit themselves to only heavy sounds, whereas damnation could've benefited from having a few heavier parts (end of Closure, maybe ending credits).

 

[Mantraschism]

The album seemed very 'electronic' to me. There weren't enough acoustic guitars (to my liking) used and I would have preferred something along the lines of Morningrise mellow sections.

Man, +1, that's exactly what I think. Too much clean-tone electric, not enough acoustic. Also, I wished the songs were a bit longer and, well, more like regular Opeth songs, but mellow. Ten-minute songs with lots of parts and adventurousness would have been bad-ass. Oh well. *sigh*

 

[Beelz]

I'd enjoy a funky album a lot more, like that part in The Lotus Eater.

 

[Ghets]

fuck that. opeth needs to produce something like Blackwater Park again.

 

[Iki-ilkkuja]

Damnation is a great album, but I don't belive Opeth would ever want to go back musically and make songs as minimalistic as they did for it...

 

[hibernal_dream]

We need an Orchid II

 

[Slayer101]

^Or a Morningrise II

 

[rrjii2000]

I'd enjoy a funky album a lot more, like that part in The Lotus Eater.

Yea, maybe something a little more fusion driven.

 

[PerditionsGhost]

I would love another soft album, but more acoustic, less clean electric, as has been stated before. Hearing Per sing some lead vocals could be cool, as apparently he has a good rock voice.

 

[el_serpiente]

I hope that Opeth never does a #2

progression please...

 

[PeeWee1473]

WHO WANTS A DAMNATION II ALBUM BECAUSE THEY LOVE OPETH'S BALLADS SOOO MUCH????

Pshhhh come on guys, obvious troll.

 

[Lothlorien]

I hope that Opeth never does a #2

progression please...

[Slynt]

Next Opeth's gonna be a double album [quadruple LP] where they go through all the motions, add the new influences from Watershed, but with a brutality-clean ratio of 85% - 15%. It's gonna be dark, haunting, epic, progressive, hardon.
But no "Damnation 2"..
