Opeth "wannabes"

What do you think of these Opeth clones?

They´re not bad actually but quite unoriginal.

april ethereal is absolutely horrible

the other band athela though, EXCELLENT
i heard them a while ago, i have this one mp3 - unspoken wish.... its damn good

oh well April Ethereal seems to be very original...naming their album "Advent", featuring a track called "Epilogue" and stuff...

I'd always thought that April Ethereal were just a tribute band.

 

[Birgith]

Heh.. I didn't even know such bands existed well.. let them feed on Opeths fame

April Ethereal is a completely unworthy attempt at being Opeth like. They just plain suck and don't deserve any recognition at all. Athela is alright. Nothing special IMO, but decent...well, decent as far as total rip offs go.

I don't even think AE sounds like a copy of opeth
