Woa. I wouldn't go THAT far. But Opeth is missing that "Thing(R)" that makes Symphony X, Symphony X.Originally posted by DrumRman
This album is terrible. Im sorry Opeth fans, but this is just $hit IMO. The guitars are plain and boring, the vocals , if you can even call them that, are terrible, and the mix sucks. Other than a lightning fast doublekick drummer, who I like, this bands about as good as a 9 yr old garage band.

I agree. Both are quite good bands, though.Originally posted by SacredSerenity
Perhaps that's because Opeth is doing something entirely separate from Symphony X. I love both bands, but for vastly different reasons. They really don't have all that much in common, that much should be obvious from listening to any Opeth and Symphony X album together.

Opeth is my favorite ever hehehe
And
WTF? Opeth has never really been about ligthingfast double bass... in fact of all past releases i can honestly say i don't remember a sing doulbe bass kick... i haven't heard the new one so i dunno.
you listen to Opeth for haunting beauty (at least i do), not for speed or agression.

Opeth has far more atmosphere and depth to their music than Symphony X does. Legendary prog. bands like Symphony X or Dream Theater have more technicality and musicianship, but Opeth can probably kick their asses in creativity.
