Favorite Opeth quote

[Slayer101]

My favorite is the one about Jack Frober.

 

[Necropeth]

He's actually in every line of every song. It's really interesting.

 

[Hedon-]

i just try to think of random songs and almost all lines are epic.

 

[Narek]

Either:

"In the pouring rain, nothing is the same"

Or

"You have to live before you die young"

 

[Nailed Reaper]

I was foul and tainted, devoid of faith
Wearing my death-mask at birth

In the year of his sovereign
Rid us of your judgement

 

[DarkGift]

I have lost the trust i had in you

 

[Gowron]

Damp air grasped, stole the words, and greeted me with a HISS

 

[dwoakee]

"We're Opeth. From Stockholm, Sweden."

And a nice one from the Watershed-DVD (although I can't quote it literally):

"I've bought a keyboard now ... same as Per's ... don't know if it's good or shit ... it has a volume knob."

In The Mist She Was Standing

Why does everyone call it this, when it's clearly just "In Mist She Was Standing"?

 

[Sisyphus's Struggle]

^ http://opeth.com/index.php/discography/show/tpl/orchid ... there you have... Tracks: 1. In The Mist She Was Standing (14.09)... oh and in the song ... "In mist enrobed in twilight she was standing"

 

[Requiem960]

You are the embodiment of pure freedom
But through my eyes you are made of stone

or

Seeking ten burgers with a dagar

 

[Mantraschism]

'Your face was like the photograph
Painted white
We didn't speak very often about it'

'And she was swathed in sorrow, as if born within its mask.'

'She, laughing and weeping at once: "Take me away...."'

'The bond we never spoke of, once stark and enticing, now slowly smouldering to dust.'

'Just one second, and I was left with nothing. Her fragrance still pulsating through damp air. That day came to an end, and she had lost in me her CREDENCE.'

'I have gone away.'

'The cold season drift over the land. The castles were all empty, asleep. Long awaiting their king. Beckoning 'round the bend.'

Eh, I'll do more later.

I am beyond death!

 

[anarchy420]

"there is a death i'm awaiting"
and "there is a rain falling only on me"

"would someone watch over me in my time of need?"

"(there's) a sorrow in me" - i know the first word is just implied, i think. but i love singing that part of the song (ok the whole song) as well as the personal thing that i seem to be forever swimming in an ocean of sorrow. and i can't swim. moving on...

"what would they care, if i did stay. no one would/should know"

 

[Karbalowz]

There is no absolution
Death is but a fairytale

 

[Hedon-]

"there is a death i'm awaiting"

"what would they care, if i did stay. no one would/should know"

you forgot "summer is miles and miles away and no one would ask me to stay". their most emo line i guess.

Mike: "some people were saying Mendez now looks like a bum, let me correct this; he was ALWAYS a bum"

 

[batastrophe]

Pest ridden tacos of the Earth.

When I find myself humming to Opeth, it is usually this:

Darkness encloses
and the candle seem to expire
in her cold cold hand...
