[Bleakest Harvest]

[Heliologue]

mike has a particular fondness for Camel.

he was also influenced heavily by Morbid Angel as a young'un.

 

[IcemanJ256]

Comus. mike likes Comus. a crazy folk band from the 70s that sounds like a bunch of trolls in the forest dancing around and singing, playing flutes, violins and acoustic guitars. it's scary.

 

[Ayoria]

He likes also Nektar and Morte Macabre, I 've read it in other threads

He didn't ask about what bands Opeth (or Mikael) likes, although that's always interesting information.

Morningrise's list is pretty good. Basically, if you like Opeth, you'll probably like Agalloch, Arcturus, Amorphis, Ulver, Vintersorg, etc., but it all comes down to personal preference.

Each time I read the question I get more confused. It's like an Escher print.
