Opeth's Age?

[HaloX]

Anyone know how old the members of Opeth are? I'm just curious because I really have no fricking clue...at times I think Mikael looks really young...but then he looks really old. Thanks ahead of time for the info...if anyone has got it!

 

[shivering corpse]

i think mikael is 30
i think peter is a year older
and the martins are pretty young, like mid 20s

go to the official site, and look at their profiles, it has their birthdays

 

[HaloX]

Thanks for the info...totally looked over attempting their site for info...can I get any dumber?

Mikeal was born in '76 from memory.

Mikael just turned 29 last week or something. Peter is 30, and the Martins are both 25, I believe.

 

[jeanreno]

No... Mikael is the youngest...

 

[The Master]

Ok, folks, according to the offical site, Mikael is 29, Peter is 30, Lopez is 24, will turn 25 next month, and Mendez is 25.

 

[jeanreno]

Ok, I lose.

 

[Vampira]

in the booklet for still life Mikael looks so young! its the facial hair I guess

 

[Demonspell]

Damn, didn't think the Martins were that much younger than the original members...

 

[plfffffft]

Does anybody else find it weird that the bass player and the drummer are both named Martin, are both Spanish guys from Sweden, and are both pretty much the same exact age(Within 2 months of each other)?

 

[mbarys]

Are they from Sweden? I was just going to ask a question about where the Martin's are from....

Hehe no , go the the website ..

When we saw Opeth live, my man thought Mikael was in his late 30s. I said no way he's like 28.

 

[commandante]

actually they are not spanish and they are not from Sweden... They are Uruguayans and are from Uruguay...(coincidence )

 

[mbarys]

It just says they live in Sweden now (relocation?)

Matt

Hehe no , go the the website ..

 

[commandante]

yes, dude they relocated to Sweden, I think before coming to Opeth both played for an Uruguayan band Requiem Aeternam. Martin Lopez also played for Amon Amarth on "once sent from the golden hall" after relocating to Sweden...

 

[chaveta]

really? well both their last names have spanish roots, but i always thought they were from sweden... do they speak the language?

quote: "Opeth is the best swedish-uruguayan band ever."

 

[commandante]

chaveta: they speak both Spanish and Swedish as far as I know...

alex: wasnt that quote from the Rolling Stones magazine?
