Hey....

[Progdude123]

I just got into Opeth and they seem pretty damn cool!!! But I have to wonder what they sing about?

 

[chomps]

Hello. The sing about forests and being dead and lost loves and stuff.

I mean...THEY SING ABOUT SATAN!!!!

 

[Weakness]

Sex. Drugs. Rock'n'Roll.

 

[Sanzen]

I would, uh, you know....read some lyrics.

 

[Valerie]

Mikael owns. I just watched the studio video for Harvest, and at the end Mikael says "Get your shit together man! You know who I am? I'm fucking Mikael!"

 

[Mr. Bland]

Yeah, when i saw that i was like "Wth?" then i started laughing.


Oh, welcome to the forums. They sing about death, lost love, Satan , cool stuff, and uhhh... "things"

I would try reading some of the lyrics while your listening, then you hear what he is really singing and understand the song more Oh, and sometimes you will need some lyrical desifering to understand some of them, but yeah, Mikael is very VERY poetic.

When you think about it, when (hopefully never ) Opeth is finally done, instruments at rest, Mikael should become a poet

 

[R0l0]

Bitches and hoes.

 

[headbanger1547]

They sing about the SLAYING OF THE INNOCENT

 

[Mr Samsara]

I would, uh, you know....read some lyrics.

That should have pretty much been the end of this thread.:Smug:

MMmmmmm,k?

Out.

Opeth sings about what every artist truly longs to express- the struggle of humanity at its lowest classes striving for acceptance, privilege and ultimately power in the face of oppression from the upper classes whom, in the face of this uprising, fear their days are numbered and lash out against the people in various ways, including but not limited to censorship, suppression of information and ideas, and imprisonment.

However, Opeth makes this more clear than most other artists, who use drugs, bitches, hoes, cars and mad cheese as metaphors for sticking it to the man.

Why? Discussions in real life develop and people talk about things. Nothing wrong with continuing a discussion even once a conclusion has been reached.

 

[Fredy_Brown]

It´s all about fucking.

 

[Mr. Bland]

Mr. Bland, you've been asked I'm sure, but where did you get that sig?
