Hey everyone,
Just thought I'd ask everyone where and when they first heard Opeth and what their first impressions were. I know alot of people who aren't used to Mikal's vocal stylings are intimidated by it and automatically equate it with evil or satanic music. Just thought I'd see what fellow fans thought. There's probably been a board on this subject but I'm a new member of the board but a LONG time Opeth lover. When I first heard Opeth it was during the Morningrise era but I heard both albums out at the time in the same day, a friend recommended them to me and had them so I barrowed both at once. Being a long time poet/artist/musician I automatically fell in love with them. Especially Orchid. I just felt out of body when I listened to both Peter and Mikal playing over each other. Not exactly something that you can properly express. But just thought I share that with fellow Opethians.
