Should Opeth release a B-sides album?

[{-sapob-}]

Or should Mikael release a solo album.

In Essence theyd be the same thing.
Wouldnt they?

 

[The Wooden Doors]

Mike's solo album... acoustic guitar, piano and voice would be awesome

 

[Wyrmwood]

I say Agalloch, Opeth, Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater, and Novembers Doom should form a mega band and play.

An album of just Mike and an acoustic would be fantastic but considering how so much of Opeth's studio material is like him writing and then bringing in the same session musicians that happen to play live with him and take pictures with him, any solo album he would do would probably sound like standard Opeth stuff.

Yes, yes and no.

Forgetting the other question Do you think opeth should put out a b sides album?
Or do you think b sides are b sides because theyre not as good as the songs you hear on the albums?

I think they should put out a b-sides album(or more correctly a non-album-songs-album).

I like a good clearing of the archives.
Plus, the songs from the Watershed-sessions are pretty damn good.

The b-sides/non-album songs album is definitely a good idea. Has anyone put together a good list of all known such songs?

We should in this thread.

I'll start;

Derelict Herds
Bridge of Sighs
Den ständiga resan
Mellotron Heart
Would?
Circle of the Tyrants
Remember Tomorrow
Soldier of Fortune
Mordet i Grottan (why not?)
Still Day Beneath the Sun
Patterns in the Ivy II

Uncle Petrucci would be enough.

[Jackehh]

^you have the internet to accomodate your needs you know, non-illegal options as well

 

[Fields Of Sorrow]

Today I've had that 'holy fuck' feeling with Den Standiga Resan. My god that is one beautiful piece of music, I've just been sitting listening to it on repeat.

I'm sure that would turn out terribly.

Psychadelic shredding folk metal with monotone doom vocals and fairy boy keyboard solos?

Maybe it could be a 2 disc digipack.
The first containing the tracks mentioned ^.
The second disc containing rare unreleased tracks.
Im pretty sure mike would have some tracks that didnt make the album.

and maybe a couple of live tracks to finish it off.

As a child I tried mixing all of my favourite foods together to make some kind of super-food.

Needless to say it was shit.

I would have made a taco pizza burger steak, pasta.
sounds bad.

Åkerfeldt's solo album would definetly be worth buying but I dunno about that B-sides album. There's no need for something like that.

Many hardcore fans would buy it.
