right, so, assuming that same line of logic, no one should ever cover anything because it's not "their business". nice.

Oh my god, I'm actually agreeing with philno... it's a sign of the apocalypse!
Seriously though, I'd love to hear it!
PLEASE, you're saying one band shouldn't cover another just because x band is x and y group is y. totally ridiculous argument. it could have been any two artists, and your argument would have been equally as wrong.
in fact, i fail to see what you're actually arguing... are you against covers altogether or just covers of pink floyd? either way, you're dumb.
I think Opeth could easily pull off a Pink Floyd cover. Pink Floyd on the other hand would have a hard time pulling off an Opeth cover. Besides, they probably don't even know who Opeth is.

Listen to mr. metal purist. Who are you to decide that? Some of the songs on WATERSHED already sound Floydian! "Hex Omega" for instance. "Burden" as well. That song could've been on any of their pre-Animals albums. Opeth have never been a pure metal band anyway. Except maybe for the first album.

Why does every thread turn into an argument? Pathetic.
I would actually love a Pink Floyd cover from Opeth. One of my fave bands of all time covering another one of my top bands would be fucking great. Dogs wouldn't really fit them, maybe something like WYWH or Run Like Hell. A Pillow of Winds would be fantastic also.

not a big floyd fan, although admitidly if i gave them a real chance id probably love them. i can see an opeth doing pink floyd album being kinda cool, although in all honesty i love opeth songs more than i love their covers, although soldier of fortune was incredible, i dunno, its worth a shot i guess

Dude........I love your avatar
lol Thanks! I'm not sure why, it's pretty silly really, but it just makes me laugh.
What about something like Echoes? I think the 'Peth would wear that one out!

Well I think the Pink Floyd influence became pretty apparent on Damnation (In my Time of Need, anyone?) so I think they could definitely pull off a good cover. I've seen both 'Dogs' and 'Pillow of Winds' mentioned, which I reckon would be awesome. 'Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun' could be done very nicely by Opeth too. Personally I think I'd rather hear one of their earlier works as opposed to something from 'The Wall' and beyond...

Hello there
What kind of asinine logic is this? There's no way you can support a statement as preposterous as this.

That's right. Who died and made him the elder statesman of Opeth??
If Opeth can do a ROBIN TROWER cover, then what's wrong with Pink Floyd? Who is Robin Trower anyway, just some Hendrix clone.

Honestly I don't think I can think of anyone who would be more fitting to do a Floyd cover, especially if it were Echoes.
