Running out of creativity?

This would be true if a keyboard player did not add an entire new element to the music that results in more avenues of sounds.

Honestly, I could do without the keyboards in Opeth. I'm all for awesome guitar stuff actually.

 

[biggsy]

the old guitar harmonies are cooler but theyre still pretty good with keys

When Xguy doesnt have a cell phone he would blabber about how useless it is and its hazardous nature etc

Then if he owns one, he would then come up with arguments that how cell phone is a great thing etc..

Same thing for Facebook...

why is it hard for fans to realise that band members are human too just like anyone else, and like everyone else they have the right to change their mind or come to a new decision based on experience and new knowledge. and you have to be fcking deaf to not hear that they keys in opeth arent that dominant but in fact add a new texture of sound and atmosphere.

You also have to be fucking stupid to not realise that the OP made this (useless) thread as a humorous remark rather than anything else.

at times, i cant tell if a post is meant to be sarcastic.

Then let me make it easier for you: The post above yours wasn't.

Mikael, please DO NOT have your hair cut, NEVER!


By the way, I'm not serious.

 

[MarblesMike]

He couldn't have been too serious since SW's vocals are all over BP (and sound great IMO).

It's not the hair, it's the moustache that must remain untouched.

plus an awesome piano piece in TLA and of course patterns in the ivy. funny how mike made this comment after BWP was made

 

[Nasty-Fire]

It was piano. He was talking about ambiant keyboard like they're using now, I guess.

 

[lammoth]

its another instrument as such, he meant another one added to their line up then

 

[wut wut]

Personally I thought Natalie's vocals worked well (though I think they should have sung in harmony with each other)...

No.

Somebody on youtube edited together Mike/Natalie harmony vocals and added a 3rd verse to "Coil", like so many people wanted to happen.

It sounded. Like utter. SHIT.

"Coil" didn't have 3 verses for a reason. Because it would've sounded like shit.

That is all. Fucking DOT.

^ Stupid post, it's just because they didn't record it in a way so it fits. They recorded both vocals seperatly without any intention, but it could have been great to hear both sing together (not with the current tracks from the song).

But isn't a 3rd harmony verse so incredibly... predictable? It's what every single male/female duet does at the end, it would feel like a country song or something.

I just think the harmony 3rd verse is a stupid idea for "Coil". Such a generic idea.

Also I think coil sounds good enough as it is.

 

[Nasty-Fire]

^^ Well.. indeed. Pedictable? Maybe. Bad idea? Whatever.
