Opeth Makers

[Chaostar]

I was introduced to Opeth in 98, with a CD from a french mag, which was a special edition about... Black Metal
So on this CD, next to Mayhem, Marduk, Emperor, etc. I found April Ethereal. I was REALLY amazed by this song (which is still my fav song ever).
My brother bought My Arms, Your Hearse a couple of days after, I listened to it about.. 1 time, and I didn't like it, found it boring, and returned back to my Marduk records... ( )

So I gave up this band, since after BWP came out. I saw many very good coments about BWP & Still Life, I thought then "maybe they've become better", then I download some songs like The Moor, Bleak, etc. I immediately loved The Moor, and bought Still Life right after, I had to listen to it many times before I really love it. Since then, I got addicted (And My Arms, Your Hearse is my favorite album ever )

I introduced many friends to Opeth, and I still do

The official Maiden BB in 2002 where loads of people were talking about Opeth and I was into Metal and wanted to expand my collection.

back in 1995 in strolled through a cd shop here in germany, one of those whe you can listen to an album before you decide to buy or not, and saw that nice picture of a flower on the cover of a cd by a band called Opeth. i looked at the song titles and they seemed interesting. after listening to that album my Opeth journey began...just to add, i discovered Morningrise few months later in the same said store...

If you were a true Metalhead you'd already have become deep into Metal from other genres.

I know a guy who did the intro of Master's Apprentice like that. What was the name of the guy who did the clip? It would be interesting if it's the guy I know. (His name's Brendan, by the way.)

doesn't ring any bells.

i introduced a jazz fan succesfully by playing for absent friends loud and he said it was lovely and calming and then masters apprentice banged in and he was hooked. masters apprentice seems to do well at this!

 

[Profanity]

I guess the master's succesful at communicating with his apprentice.

 

[Nairolf]

thats a novel way of putting it! another good intro is demon of the fall, can't think of anything witty for that yet though. :-s

how about...nah cant

 

[Profanity]

another good intro is demon of the fall

Maybe the demon has fallen over and the saint has taken over the introduction.

lol yeah, i have on efor the drapery falls:

as the drapery falls the veil is raised (the metaphorical musical veil that is!)

 

[Profanity]

[Nairolf]

Limewire's catagory searching. Musically bored one day, I used Limewire to gather a bunch of diff. metal for listening later. I happened to get Blackwater Park, which just about blew the top of my head off. After that, I checked Amazon's reviews and bought three Opeth albums. I treasure them all now, I keep six (I only have six cd changer) loaded in my car at all times...
