New Opeth song from upcoming album

[Nephilim96]

:O

What do you mean Black metal has no "artistic credibility" ? Can't you see the meaning of these pictures?

These are difinitely the pictures a real "artist" would go with!

If you're going to talk shit on an English language message board, at least use the fucking language correctly.

you do realize that opeth came from death metal, yes? not that i really care, but im curious how you rationalize this. or does everything pre-heritage not have artistic credibility?

As I said, "what Opeth has done lately". I am reffering to their material on Heritage (Damnation counts as well) and also this latest song. As far as death and black metal goes, they are worthless subgeneres of metal.

I've loved every record that Opeth has put out. All unique in their own way.

Heard the new song "Cusp of Eternity". I loved it. I think this record will kick ass.

This, exactly. I am always fascinated how polarizing Opeth releases are for their fans. (sorry Draele, I used polarize before I saw you had as well!)

I love each Opeth album on its own merit, not holding it up against what I think it is supposed to be based on their last album, or previous albums in general. I can't think of many (any??) bands that can write and release such a spectrum of material spanning across so many genres, and do it in a way that still produces top notch song writing and compositions.

I can sit down with Heritage and Watershed for days on end, despite being completely different styles, just listening to the amazing songwriting and musicianship.

Maybe it's because I like and appreciate many genres of music outside of death/black or whatever you lump old Opeth into. Who knows. I just know it kicks ass, and the new one sounds like it will be continuing the streak!

You are certifiably retarded.

Yes, you see people like you that have no arguments to go with, focus on irrelevant matters such as language and grammar. Or is it because I did not replace all the C with K and the U with V. Maybe then the text would be kvlt enough for you to read. Retard

This forum (at least the general metal discussion part) as you can see is not a place to discuss music. It includes the same 10-15 users that will make fun and call shit anything outside black and death metal, and nerd rage when you have different opinion about those 2 genres.

PS: This reply is the only serious thing I have posted on this forum in months.

The only retards here are you and Metalum, tbh.

You hate on black and death metal, basically because "too much for my fragile ears!!", claiming it to be "unlistenable noise", yet you praise ACTUAL unlistenable noise like (in your case) Cinderella and (in Metalum's case) Opeth. You are one of the worst posters on this board, Yellow, and I sincerely hope a power surge causes your computer monitor to explode in your face.

Heard about 2 minutes of that new track. Boring shit. They should have stuck with their Damnation sound and just become a mix of old goth rock and 70s prog.

I'm the same, well said!

It's been said before but I think bands stagnate if they do the same thing over and over again. It's good to see Opeth evolving.

I admit I thought Heritage, even though I still like it, was a little disjointed; maybe Akerfeldt was trying too hard or something.

I'm hoping Pale Communion is an improvement - things are looking promising with the first single.

First of all I don't hate death metal. Sure it's not my thing, but there are few very good bands/musicians among the genre.

There's a big difference between bands like At the gates and Amon Amarth, and shitty noise like Cannibal Corpse or Morbid Angel.

yet you praise ACTUAL unlistenable noise like (in your case) Cinderella and (in Metalum's case) Opeth.

Yet both Cinderella and Opeth are miles ahead from ANY black band music-wise, and in any other way.

and I sincerely hope a power surge causes your computer monitor to explode in your face.

You need to stop watching low-budget horror films.

There's nothing to argue, you just posted pictures of Immortal and said Black Metal is stupid and has no credibility (which is the only thing you ever do). If you're going to talk shit, at least make sure that shit talk is comprehensible.

Did Abbath rape your mom or something?

The pictures were also from Gorgoth and Darkthrone (i think)

The pictures pretty much show how "serious and artistic" black metal is. Yes real artists wear leather guards on their bellies, or posing while holding scythes and axes

Did Abbath rape your mom or something?

I have actually met Abbath, he seems okay guy. Probably the only black metal musician I would drink a beer with.

 

[Nephilim96]

Yeah, that second picture kind of looks like the cover of Transilvanian Hunger...

... But yeah, you can't base an entire genre on what types of clothes and face paint a few bands wear (but we've told you that before). Hell, 90% of black metal bands don't use "corpse paint" at all.

 

[J.]

making fun of black metal pictures and yet listening to this:

seems a bit inconsistent, but i don't really care. just ridiculous generalizations and boring opeth talk going on here.

btw, Orchid is the best opeth album. J out

Yeah because the look is the only thing wrong with black metal...

Is it the "musicianship" where 99% of the songs are the same fucked up noise of a trembling guitar and some dude making AAARGHH noises, where you can't tell even a single word from the "lyrics"

Is it the awesome productions where the sound is recorded in a basement with an early 90's cellphone

Is it the lyrical content, where grown up men talking about satan, torture, winter and sacrifices

Or is it the NSBM part of black metaluke: (which is a considerably big amount of the whole genre)

Which one of these make the genre worth listening to?

Nooooooo....! Morningrise is!!!

Although TAIT is very very

1) Not all Black Metal is the same. Burzum is not the same as Blut Aus Nord, Blut Aus Nord is not the same as Ludicra, Ludicra is not the same as Oranssi Pazuzu, and so on. It's a very diverse subgenre, one that you obviously haven't explored much.

2) I rather listen to NSBM made with a 90s cellphone than listen to Cinderella. They're dudes who look like chicks who write about love, and their band is named after a princess from a children's fairy tale. Glam Rock is for 50 year old prostitutes who charge $5 for a blow job.

... Why do I keep replying to you? You're the most obvious troll ever.

We should drink a beer someday. Well said.

Pretty much explains it and I didn't have to say anything. Thanks!

You are a bunch of retards who would rather listen to trembling noise made from some psycho brainwashed nazis talking about how they should exterminate all the Jews and how <insert_skin_colour_here> people are not equal to white skin coloured people, and all the other stupid crap nazis think, than listen to actual music made by real talented artists, just because "they look like chicks, and their songs are about love"

And you are wondering why people saying black and death metal is the worst thing that could happen to metal...

 

[Nephilim96]

I have nothing against love songs, I just don't like them in my metal.

And Butt, yes we should!

So there's a kid on here defending Glam/Hair rock and simultaneously dissing Black Metal? Oh, Lord:
