I'm waiting to see what GD has to say about this
Well, you know at least partly what to expect, as I'm on Audio Autopsy and will also be doing the regular review for it.
fanboy lol
My tirade wasn't only for Opeth's music, but for any band. Blast it all you want, but a) if you're expecting a band to release the same album over and over, you're a moron and b) if your only argument for the album sucking is that it isn't stylistically alike the earlier albums, you're a moron. Quality in songwriting, execution and production is another matter, those are all valid points, but the clinging-to-the-past is just a sorry excuse for Forever Alone-losers to whine about the end of the one sorry relationship they ever had. I'd think those persons are more deserving of your comment which I quoted above.
Also:
In the 2nd part of Slither, they just throw some opeth-ish sounding part so people could remember its not iron maiden song Lame.
O rly? You think Åkerfeldt cares about people thinking this or that about his music? And, inserting Opeth-ish parts? By Opeth? On an Opeth record? I am in awe of your superior perceptive skills. Oh master, tell me moar.
Unless, you are a total mindless fanboy, you would know that old albums get boring after a few years of listening.
If any album gets boring after a few years of listening, you don't like that album very much. I've been listening to "Ride the Lightning" for 20+ years and it doesn't sound boring to me.
