opeth's Roadrunner Records Debut ideas

[Xalon Niles]

What you hope to see on the neir 8th cd?

I love to see it Self-titled with 9 tracks within 77 minutes with a mixed old Opeth & Damnation-era Opeth. The music with trade-off on the softer parts like they do on the heavier stuff.

I'm looking forward to Per's keyboards adding a nice black-metal sound myself.
And I also hope there will be a 6th member, playing kazoo and ukelele.

 

[burton]

Kazoo and ukulele? I can do that. I'd just have to learn how to play the kazoo. >_>;;

So I googled the new song titles....

"Ghost of perdition" is a track on a demo from a Brazilian metal band called Carcinoma. And of course the demo was their only release...
"Isolation Years" is the name of a modern Swedish (prog?) rock band.
meanwhile "baying of the hounds" is a very common phrase so who knows where that was from.

It wouldn't be Opeth if the song titles were original

@trey: I hate that fucking cactus. Could never kill it =/

final fantasy 7

best game ever

final fantasy 7

hmm I remember him from Final Fantasy VI, it's this guy you always encountered at a dueling arena. He had like 9999999 HP and kept kicking you out of the battle with some spell so you couldn't ever kill him. I guess he appeared in later FF games as well...

 

[Pseud0]

actually, im pretty sure cactus man is in more than 1 of the ff games. Hes definetly in 7 - i believe on some random desert island

 

[Henkka]

Haha, cool to see I'm not the only fan of the FF series here.

apparently youre not familiar with the difference between black metal synths and vintage keyboard instrumentation which is what per uses typically.

 

[Yoda]

What?

 

[Moonstruck]

I hope for more acoustic guitars as opposed to all the clean electric parts.

 

[Don Corleone]

i would love to hear more psyche/spacey moments (hmmm not spacey maybe but psychedelic definitely)

think of the soft, dark interludes in blackwater park, the song. add lots and lots of vintage keys and there....PERFECTION!

That is exactly what it will be like, seriously.

 

[Ermz]

I would love to hear industrial/symphonic elements in the music. That would definately be a win in my book.

 

[Heavenscent]

more brutality and pointless violence...and boobies

 

[JoeVice]

what kind of amps you guys think they will use on this album?...besides morningrise and orchid, they have used a different combo on each album.

 

[Ermz]

It would depend on what Fashion street have in-house I think, and the sound they're trying to achieve. I could see them using rectifiers.

I like industrial but it just wouldn't fit opeths style

Coon huntin', yeehaw!
