Harlequin Forest drums

[the opeth affinity]

How good are they? Ive recently been listening to the GR album alot more latley. It didnt really sit well with me but all i can hear on that track are how good the drums are, Lopez you are sadly missed Such a great rythm and ive never heard a drummer change the pace and groove so well, getting into the whole GR a bit more now, just found it a bit 'over produced' sounding ( yeah i know it sounds silly) but i think some of you might know where im coming from. Funny how tracks just suddently click with you after a while

Absolutely know where you're coming from. Drums on the entire album are great, but I think the bass is probably the best for me. Reverie/Harlequin Forest was my favourite song to start with and remains so. Killer track.

Yeah, Lopez is awesome. I Love the drums on "The Grand Conjuration"

A boring song with well, technically good drumming but again boring imo

It's really grown on me lately actually. It was by far the worst song on GR when I first heard it but it's really enjoyable now. And it goes off live.

Sure it's repetitive, but it builds well, I think. There are these different types of fills and stuff each time the riff goes round, that's what I lock onto when I listen to it anyway. Maybe people would appreciate it more if they tried playing the drums?

Harlequin Forest is my favorite song off of Ghost Reveries. There is something about the emotional and musical changes that occur within it that are so amazing. Beautiful....
