Yesterday evening, I decided to forget for half an hour about my studying and listen to some Still Life with a decent pair of headphones. Yeah yeah, beautiful, returning memories, blahblah you know how the story ends...
But after a while a was getting more focused on the sound than on the songs in fact. It seems to me that there's so much more in the Still Life sound than in the recent Deliverance sound, Deliverance seems more polished, sterile...
In still life you can really hear the harmonics of the fat open E string (the moor), you hear the higher strings scream in the big chords (is that because of the gibson SG?).
Enough of that.
I want the new Opeth cd to sound less engineered (sorry moonlapse), more natural, I like the newer Opeth songs, but not the sound, it's too metal..
