Alright guys; in the last days we've seen many polls of this kind, especially with instrumental songs and instrumentals by Opeth vs instrumentals by bands like Emperor or Metallica.
My curiosity goes now to the canonical Opeth. Once I read an interview in which Mikael was saying something like "Opeth has to play these songs in concerts"... Two questions now:
Poll: which of these tracks do you prefer?
+
Do you think these tracks should be played in the next tour? Do they show the essence of what Opeth is? Could you name 3 other tracks which show this canonical Opeth and that you think should be played in the next tour as well/instead?
For some reason I tend to like TDF more; I think it's the lyrics -make more sense to me-; the music appeals to me more, as well; however, I think that has been played live a lot and that other songs should be included in the set list, like "When," "The Funeral Portrait" and "Moonlapse Vertigo"... I don't know; these songs have surely been played but at least not in the last couple of years, as far as I know.... Thoughts?
