steven wilson didn't work on GR with Opeth did he? iirc, he only worked on Blackwater Park, Deliverance and Damnation. any idea why he didn't do GR with them?

 

[R0l0]

He was busy touring with Porcupine Tree.

yeah his schedule was full. i guess the boys didnt nag him enough. pity, i think his productions is way better than jens'. jens is too clinical.

 

[Black Session]

I love the production on GR ... and remember: Opeth produce their albums themselves, so the influence on the sound is not that strong I believe. Perhaps it would be a little bit different with Wilson, but it would less interesting for GR I think. It's always nice to hear other approaches ...

 

[KjeXXXer]

^^^^ Agreed.

 

[Conspirator]

i'm glad SW didn't produce GR. his influence on BWP, D1 and D2 was bad enough

 

[cuntface]

the singing parts would have been diffent for sure like the first singing bits on GoP and BotH its just pop singing realy it would have been diffent and better if SW worked with them

GOOD ONE!..........C....U....N....T

 

[Stimuli]

its just pop singing realy

I don't hear it. What constitutes pop singing...

a major key? a powerul voice? I dont see the connection between pop and anything on ghost reveries.

[worldwide_suicide]

just out of curiosity, whats wrong with SW producing opeth albums? i think hes great. he has an amazing musical mind and just has so many quality ideas.

 

[affinityband]

I thought he was excellent too.

 

[daz436]

he was good, but I like the unmistakable Opeth feel about Still Life, which maybe blackwater park would have tasted of more if steve wilson hadnt been involved in it. but still, all his work with opeth is very good

that's kind of a ridiculoud thing to say, that still like had an "opeth feel." every opeth album has that, otherwise they're not opeth albums, regardless if steve wilson worked on them or not. but is it really just a coincidence that the first album they do with SW is (arguably) the best opeth album ever? sure it's mostly the actual music, but can you imagine the drapery falls being as good without that lead part in the intro/end riff(which SW wrtoe)? and god knows how many other contributions he's made to the album, musically, production-wise, etc?

I agree. And yes, Jens Bogren is way too clinical.

 

[affinityband]

If i had jens borgens skill and precision i wouldnt complain.

No.
