[Andrew Park]

mire, lamentations, lyres

 

[Fragon]

^you don't know what's a lamentations ? :S It's a song filled with grief, sorrow, a kind of mourning...

 

[Kirkfjell]

Benighted is a an english word, and hessian is an expression used long before Åkerfeldt wrote the song on Watershed ...

Perhaps you should at least try and google the words before you post them as "Åkerfeldt-made" ...

[Cerberus III]

I think the OP means words that aren't commonly used by English speakers, but are used by Mikael, who is a native Swede.

But so far I think 'Moonlapse' is the only Mikael made word lol.

This isn't really a shit thread. There's so many words that are strange in Opeth catalogy. Perplexion

Before getting all high and mighty, understand that the thread is not about words Mike invented, but about words that you don't usually meet in everyday life. Hence why I mentioned "Hessian".

Sorry if that came off harsher than intended.
