Wow, that's pretty ballsy of them. I like Maudlin a lot, but they should still be worshipping Opeth. Insolent pups!

What, do you know Mikael Akerfeldt personally or something? The criticisms getting thrown around were about his actual credibility to be saying what he did, as about half of us here despise MoTW's music. The way his statement was structured, was almost implying that his band is somehow 'greater' because he feels that their music isn't cut and pasted.
That's not the bad part though. What I personally got peeved at is when he made sarcastic remarks at the expense of the general population of Opeth fans.

Quite honestly, does anyone here really think Mike would care that some other band made some remark about his music in an interview? He'd most likely laugh at it, shrug his shoulders, and get back to his business. People say things all the time, and it's the fans that have a bigger reaction then the bands themselves. I guess after being in a band for a long time, you grow thick skin, and learn to not take what others say personally. Not everyone is going to like your music. If that were the case, music would get pretty stale.
As for cutting and pasting music in pro tools, shit, Metallicas done that since the black album, and that CD sold 13 million. Fans don't care how the music was made, as long as it reaches them somehow. Both bands are brilliant, both bands are different, and even if both bands hated each other, it wouldn't change my opinion of either one.
"Can't we all just get along?"
Now go buy OUR CD'S DAMNIT!

No kidding...Constructive critizism is fine and going to be thrown around any music genre...Not every freakin metal band out there loves eachother...Didnt Mikael say himself once: "If we did what others think to be the best for Opeth, that would be the day Opeth ceased to exist..."
Something to think about...

The funniest thing about this thread is that some people are complaining that Toby was being immature, yet ignore the 50 or so completely immature, asshole responses.
