Roadrunner Records Trying To Consume Opeth?

[Ümlaut]

I was checking my myspace page, and I have The Lotus Eater added as a song from Opeth's page, but it says The Lotus Eater By Roadrunner Records, not by Opeth...


Get out while you can Mikael!

No he should stay because all of the other great bands are there...like Cradle of Filth and nightwish and devil driver and...forget I said anything.

[DEMIgOD]

[Ümlaut]

Or they can just end up like Metallica.

That's because you have the song from Roadrunner's Myspace instead of Opeth's myspace.
That's why with all these fan myspaces the songs are displayed as (example) "maudlin of the Well fan - Blight of River Systems"
It will always be displayed as the name of that specific Myspace in which you get it from, there is no option to change the artist name. On a side note, why do you have The Lotus Eater on your space? It sounds like shit on Myspace due to how low quality the songs on there are. Not a good representation of the song, imo.

haha Cradle of Filth sucks dick soo much haha they are just another satan worshiping boring metal band how can you call them great. It seem's to be the exact opposite of great.

roadrunner have given opeth some awesome exposure, so its not all bad.

 

[SerenityNow!]

You have no faith. :zombie:

Let us not forget Cynic, Porcupine Tree and Dream Theater.

It's just a record label. A bit bigger than Music For Nations and Koch, but still a lot smaller than, say Universal and BMG. Without Roadrunner Opeth wouldn't have made it to # 1 in Finland and # 7 in Australia and so on.
