Whoah! Mike's real first name is...

[Space Butler]

Lars. I was reading Mike's biography page on opeth.com (again) and under name it said Lars Mikael Akerfeldt. I realize that alot of Opeth fans probably already know this but I thought I would bring it up anyway.

 

[greasyboat]

whoa!!!! awesome!

 

[ponie]

I've always been quite sad about this considering Metallica

 

[Lateralus14]

^ Eh, worst member of an awesome band is still pretty good.

 

[Anesthetize]

My world... it is shattered...

 

[HemeHaci]

Thank God he is using Mikael instead of Lars.

 

[hexwind]

^ yeah ! it's gay
btw, Mikael means :" who's like God?"

 

[Snusgropen]

Everyone knows the most useless and expendable member of Metallica is Kirk.

What a shit thread...

 

[GhostOfPudding]

Rob and James are the most talented members in Metallica, but James has definitely lost his ability to write lyrics and sing.

Everyone knows the most useless and expendable member of Metallica is Kirk.

He wrote the main riff to their most famous song though.

what does it matter?

Does anything really matter? We are born, we live, then we die. Then we turn to dust (or ashes) and are forgotten about forever.

Sigh....nothing makes me *facepalm* like people bashing any of Metallica's 80s material - its no wonder some people bash Opeth to try and balance things out a bit. Anyway um...that's neat about Akerfeldt I guess.
