Wow... incredible, how many shit opinions. It's very easy: you don't trust in Axe, that means you don't trust in Mike, that means you shouldn't listen to Opeth any more, because for you they've dropped .
Well... the topic. I'm going to be very impatient beacuse of the new album. I hope it'll be released at the end of this year, but with so many projects it would be difficult. And I've got the impression that it's going to be the most strange thing that Opeth has ever done before: new drummer, side projects with a lot of influence...
The whole album could be Mikael farting into a microphone for 70 minutes and I would be pleased.

Enjoy.
The thing with Lopez is that although he isn't the most technical drummer in metal (admit it there are metal bands that surpass Opeth in technicality... not that Opeth play two-chord pop songs) he had awesome fucking groove. He played some sick jazzy stuff sometimes... it's awesome watching his playing on Lamentations DVD. I actually wish that little drum bit in Windowpane had let him go nuts for those few seconds. The original Opeth drummer was good metla drummer for sure but I don't think he played in a outstanding way or anything. I dunno why but I have a feeling Axe is probably the most technical drummer out of all the previous guys and I'm sure he'll live up to Nordin and Lopez's playing. Anyways, enough stupid drummer babbling from me...
Hope Tool can open for Opeth.
I don't know anything about Axe as a drummer, but I'm looking forward to finding out on the next Opeth album. Many many thanks for wanting to give us a new Opeth experience Mikael.
Now that TOOL is on hiatus until the summer, maybe we could work the TOOL/OPETH fall tour with Opeth's new album.
