Stupid question

[Ümlaut]

Why is Opeth so fascinated by Autumn?

Seems like every other song I listen to says Autumn at least OVER NINE THOUSANNNNND times. (exaggeration)

What seriously?

 

[Brave.Archangel]

because they're opeth and they wouldn't be opeth unless

 

[in_my_time_of_disease]

"and in the autumn years of their lives" loved it.

 

[Godhead59]

Because it's a bleak time, and Opeth's music is bleak.

What's so bleak about Autumn? Winter would seem more bleak than fall.

 

[Luann]

because it's a good symbol?

 

[Ümlaut]

because it's a good symbol?

That's the only reason?

This remembered me the Tree-Hugging Black Metal genre. . Where bands paint their faces and dress leather clothes then run through the forest with axes in their hands while singing.It is pretty funny.

About Opeth,I think Autumn fits with them very well.

Summer times = hip hop
winters = metal

I'm not saying that I don't like the way they use it in their lyrics, just wondering if any official interview question ever came up about it.

"AUTUMNS IS HERE!
GHOSTS ALL AROUND!
WINTER BE NEXT!
MORE GHOSTS TO COME!"

Doesn't MAYH span all seasons? Does that make the first part hiphop?!

 

[wut wut]

Because Autumn is the awesomest season of all time.

Halloween, dude. Halloween.

How about we start some serious discussion?

I dunno about you, but I don't find Autumn to be 'bleak'. It's more colorful than spring or summer.

 

[Metalstrm]

My guess is this. Winter is too grim. Summer is too happy. Somewhere in between, where you get a balance of both. After all, Opeth is all about balance. About good and bad, white and black, yin and yang. Ye ken?

This pretty much sums it up!!! Well said...

Spring and Summer are full of life, Autumn is the realization that everything dies or slumbers at some point, and Winter is the frozen, quiet death.

Yeah I dunno... sounds good enough to me.
