Opeth and Therion

[Slaydon]

Does anybody see any similarities between Opeth and Therion? Therion uses choirs and female singers a lot, but they also have a male singer who growls a lot. Their music is also a blend of prog and death metal, although slightly more prog than death metal. I guess there are Therion fans here,or?

noooooooooo

opeth are amazing, therion are terrible

 

[angelofdeath9308]

Therion is cool, but I don't see many similarities besides both bands being cool

 

[Kristopher]

Relatively few similarities but Therion are great also!

 

[leprecon]

Therion is def one of the best "bands" out there. But like Opeth, never thought about that. It just don't make sense to me.

I think it's only because you are too much focusing on these two bands that you are somehow able to see similarities, but these similiarities are probably too low to be considered. There are similarities in everything if you want my opinion.

i see no similarity between the tooth fairy and king leonidas

 

[Nasty-Fire]

There are... lol! But I guess it's subjective... they both suck, for example.

what the hell happened to Therion, they dissolved into thin air?

[Risquit]

Therion is very different. Not terrible though. Not terrible at all.

They broke up IIRC.

They broke up IIRC.

What does IIRC mean??

^If I remember correctly. Therion are still together. I used to listen to them ages ago, but they don't do much for me anymore tbh.

 

[Braighs]

They are credited in the Orchid liner notes.
They both play some brand of metal some percentage of the time.
That's where the similarities end.

Hmm yeah the band is still there but didn't most of the members part ways? Same here btw, used to like them a few years ago but not so much anymore. Beyond Sanctorum is supposed to be very innovative Death Metal though so perhaps I should give that another try. I didn't appreciate the vocals at that time.

Therion crawled back up its own racist ass and disappeared.

Or so I'm told.

Why are they racist?

Therion is one of my very favorite bands, but there are next to no similarities between them and Opeth!
About the current band members - none but the mastermind, Christopher Johnsson. All other members had parted ways with the band.
