Hello, I'm new here so i suppose i'll use this thread to introduce myself as well. I'm Manda, here is my question.
I'm doing a project for my writing class where i have to dissect lyrics from a band and tell why the artist wrote them and what they mean to me. I've been looking and looking for interveiws with the band and they have to say are pretty vague. I can get help from my boyfriend because he's a big Opeth fan but he isn't quite sure what the exact meaning of "Forest of October" is. I know that they aren't even in favor of writing lyrics so maybe that's a reason why i cant really find anything. I suppose its my own fault for picking a hard to find song but if anyone could help me with this it would definately be appreciated.
From the interpretation of the song i got was that he is commiting suicide in the forest. but i need an actual paper of an interveiw with Akerfeldt explaining exactly why he wrote it.
