Opeth - "Death metal sound is over"

[DarkGift]

 

[Purple Haze]

You'd cling to your pleasant hope
It is twisted fascination
While I'd ruin the obstacles into despair
And I'm praising death

<3

 

[stefan86]

Its sad.

Lucky I had Jocke right beside me filling in the growls

The last day in the camp was interesting, every sentence had some form of målbrott going

 

[nizzon]

Hahaha, slitet.

 

[DarkGift]

jo lagomt

 

[nizzon]

The David Vincent-sound experimentations on TFM screwed up mickes chords

 

[DarkGift]

probably, or the "experimentation" was just really the beginnings of his voice disappearing

 

[nizzon]

I bet it was. Fucking hell.

 

[FUBAR]

Mendez confirms there is no growls on the new album in this interview!

There's enough DM growls for me in the world. I'm not gonna miss it here. The key is songwriting. If that stays intact, I'll be happy.

 

[stefan86]

Like that awesomely structured song they opened their Getaway Rock fest gig. Pure songwriting genius

 

[nizzon]

fu

 

[DarkGift]

but yeah, the grand masturbation = for about 60% of the song kinda

 

[Animaltracks]

I need a grand masturbation !

 

[nizzon]

I like tgc live! Sucks on album.

 

[DarkGift]

yeah, it's ok live... but they could've played harlequin forest instead for some awesomeness

 

[stefan86]

I love that kinda superior songwriting where your massive skills requires you to turn off the entire song between every change

 

[wandering_taco]

I noticed some of you were discussing Åkerfeldt's (in a bad way) deteriorating growls. He said in a recent interview it was caused by the new in-ear monitors he's been using on stage. He heard his voice in an unfamiliar way with the speakers being so close to his ears, leading to him compensating with straining himself. That's why he's sounded so bad, and why he got a sore throat after some nights. Or at least that's what he says. And the new Opeth song is tits, if you hadn't noticed.

 

[Krow]

The new opeth song is fucking gay, if you hadn't noticed.
