'Hope Leaves' & 'Windowpane'?

[Bleakest Harvest]

In the biography section of the new Opeth.com, Mike and Martin L cite these two songs as among their favourite Opeth tracks. Never heard of 'em before, are they from Damnation perhaps?

 

[Fifth_Horseman]

I'm pretty sure they are.

 

[Speedkill]

What else would they be from?

 

[Genocidal]

Either that or "Poise into Celeano"-era demos.

yeah , way to sound elite there bro , martin didnt even know the band , when that song was played.

 

[Genocidal]

I wasn't trying to sound elite. It was my first post.

My initial thought when first reading those bios (this is before I visited the board) was that they were demos. I remembered "Poise into Celeano" from a live recording I downloaded a couple weeks ago, and linked them. I didn't solidify, prove, or otherwise say anything else but give a possibility. It isn't fact, and I didn't make it sound like it was.

They could also have been demos for any album with Lopez drumming.

 

[ricochet]

They are from Damnation, of course.

dont be frightened off !! you sound like you know alot

Don't worry (as if you were), I'm not easily scared off of a message board, especially not for a great band.

It occured to me just how snotty and conceited my reply above was. I didn't intend to sound that way, it just came out wrong. spikes77, if you're going to reply to it, kindly try not to take it the wrong way.

Both your posts seem fine to me. Maybe it's just that time of the month for Spikes77?
