Apparently only Mike reads this forum, from the whole band... Am I wrong?

Fred doesn't but I don't know about the other three guys.

 

[-Davo]

Mike has posted here a few times, but I haven't seen him here all year, but I don't go out to stalk the guy so w/e.

He has posted several times this year.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

So Fred wants a more brutal album on the next record, he's on to something.

Nice interview, thank you Mexicola for sharing, as usual ;]
I believe now the writing process will be tad faster, coz it's only one member who writes riffs and things, it's 2, and remember, Fred wants some brutality:Smokedev:

 

[Chinese Whispers]

Is it just me or is Fred starting to look a bit like Mike with that mo motif?

I thought about that when i first saw fred growing that mustache !

 

[Words of Credence]

Nice!!!

 

[Iki-ilkkuja]

Not the best moustache I've seen though.

 

[EkstatikParataxis]

niiice... hehe

You know, in the end it really depends on Mikael's mood.

 

[mexicola]

If I want brutal metal, I'd go listen to something else really. I hope the next record is as varied as Watershed. Or even more so.

[Lateralus14]

I'd like if they messed with the tuning again to get some more unique acoustic parts again like Ghost Reveries..

I feel the same way. The multidimensional aspect is why I enjoy opeth as much as I do. Although, that being said...the heavy moments on watershed are the ones that have the most listening longevity.

word up, I wouldn't mind a bit more heavyness a-la still life which has the sort of sad beauty about it, or the relentless darkness of deliverance

 

[SerenityNow!]

As long as we're kept on our toes and they stay one step ahead of us, I see no reason for complaints whenever they decide to release their next mind blower. Whether it's more diverse, a bit lighter, or balls-out heavy, we all know it's gonna crush!
