Now this has probably been discussed before but I was thinking about how I first heard Opeth....1995 I think. I'd been listening to metal for perhaps 3 or 4 years, u know, the usual stuff like Slayer, Sepultura, Morbid Angel etc etc, when I went down to sydney and met a friend of a relative who said 'dude, think about what you've been listening to...have a picture in your mind. Now listen to this."
He spun the volume dial, chucked on Orchid, Under the Weeping Moon...and my whole perception of metal changed...that initial riff that kind of weaves to and fro...I was hooked.
went to the store and picked up Orchid the next day...
didn't look back...
any other stories people?
