Opeth involved on James Murphy's Death tribute album

[Ermz]

James caught my interest when he said that he was down in Sweden recording the Opeth guys. Whilst unfortunately there's no Opeth album studio update for us, we do now know that 3 of the guys are involved on the upcoming Death tribute. Orsm.

i'm not involved in the new Opeth at all.. i'm here recording 3 of the guys for the Death tribute CD i've been working on, which is why i was at Andy LaRoque's a few days back and then at In Flames' studio right after that. not to mention being for 2 weeks at Mr Sneap's studio where for the very same project i have recorded guys from both Carcass and Napalm Death. i will be returning to Backstage right after i leave here actually in order to mix the project for Andy's old Sabbat singer, Martin Walkyier, that i tracked the majority of the vocals for when i was just recently there.

sorry, no Opeth "studio" reports from me, that would be a "party foul"... you'll have to wait to get it from them.. i will tell you though that it's sounding great!

Cheers dude.

Yeah I knew about a half year ago Lopez was going to be on it, but now 3 are going to be on it? That should be cool. I wonder who isn't going to be on it?

and yes, Death rule, clearly

Yes I have read that too. That would be pretty interesting to listen to.

Of course it rules!!

Only acoustically.

Well, I'd go to a Death concert to hear Death songs....but for some reason I don't foresee that happening anytime soon. So I'll take a Death song from Opeth anytime!

 

[Botfly]

I'm just looking forward to seeing a concert, as I've yet to see one. Who cares, I jut wanna fucking ROCK OUT!

 

[Ermz]

Wow, some of you guys really have a knack for totally convoluting a simple situation. I'd say just be happy to hear this great band do a tribute to a great band, along with many of today's other great bands. The tribute album is really shaping up to be something. I can't wait.

 

[Demilich]

PLUS he said Opeth's new stuff sounds great! We'll see... but it's James Murphy, the guy knows what he's talking about!

 

[deliverance]

i've been anxiously awaiting it too moonlapse, james is definetly putting A LOT of time into it, with many artists contributing.

 

[Ermz]

Definately. I didn't realize exactly how much time he's been spending on the road for it. I wonder who's funding it.

 

[deliverance]

you mean who's label it will be released on? or..because i know james is paying for everything thus far, it's "his" project, yaknow?

 

[rissy]

Who won't be playing on that album? Bass Player?

 

[Plebsown]

Fuck yeah, Death rules.
