yea wheres the australian/ new zealand tour?? new zealand needs some more good metal bands down here..

and on a seperate note, america is far from awesome, just look at who they elect for their head of state....

 

[Ermz]

Don't start the anti-America thing here, thanks.

 

[Kottke]

New Zealand, fuck yeah!

this isn't "news"...we knew this over a week ago, via www.opeth.com

 

[Sanzen]

Well, the only thing new about this is that BW&BK talked to Peter, and he said that there will be a North American headlining tour. Everything else was reported on opeth.com, and that RR thing is still unconfirmed. People just keep citing anonymous sources. Bullshit news.

 

[Dreadful]

well Opeth loves touring here which is fucking great, because all the other cool metal bands stay in Europe for their small tours and festival dates. Please eurobands...embark on the 3 month long party that is the tour of the United States. Thankie.

 

[Shadows Skulk]

isn't this a near-exact rehash of the opeth.com news

 

[OpethNZ]

ahhahaha opeth coming to new zealand thats a realllly good one, as long as they come to aussie im happy enough to fly over there

 

[Arnold Layne]

I cant imagine Opeth coming here, but unless they came to CHCH, id end up going to Aussie anyway Melboune all the way.

Cheers moony for kepping the Anti-american feelings out of this place, our PM spouts enough of them.

yeah, okay...they're touring and added a new member. but any information on what they're new album will SOUND LIKE? are they going to keep up this soft-rock stuff, go back to deliverance style, something in between, or become an accordian-driven polka band?

 

[ryan1987online]

something to add:
I do admit, though, that they're old deliverance style, with pretentious guitar solos, acoustic passages, and alternation between death growls and clean vocals IS kind of an old formula for them by now. then again, this ultra soft rock could get old after a while, too.

and what in the world do you mean by that?
by the way, what's with all the signature pictures having some reference to how much you guys love Opeth? did you all get together at one point and decide to do this?
the one I just don't get, though, is that one with all the asian guys building a snowman and it simply says Opeth in the bottom right corner (?!?)

I think that people who use the word pretentious are pretentious.
