Has become a very big influence on me. Ever so slowly this past year i have really gotten into them, acquiring all of there albums and really listening to them and not just having them in the background for ambience. As everyone knows Opeth is very unique, i think they are one of the, if not THE most versatile extreme metal band out there. Hearing songs like Heir Apparent or Demon of the Fall and then chillin to face of melinda or benighted just gives me chills to know that such a unique band is out there.
I have for the most part learned almost every acoustic opeth song (harvest, patterns in the ivy 1 and 2, credence etc. etc.) and i've taught myself to sing on opeth as well and i think i've been doing pretty well. And of course i've been learning a lot of their songs just in general, they have definitely been an influence on my guitar playing and im thinking in new ways when it comes to writing and playing.
I just feel very blessed that we have this band, this culmination of 5 guys, whose creative drive has amassed to one of the greatest acts out there.
I'm not really sure why i wrote all this but i just felt like expressing some of my feelings about opeth to some of their fans.
How has Opeth affected you? if at all? I'd like to hear some thoughts etc.
