Moonlapse is like... becoming one with the moon?

 

[Nasty-Fire]

Oh sorry, was editing... look at what I wrote, that's a guess but I'm almost sure that's what it is.

 

[Metalstrm]

Nice interpretation but it still is not a word that you see elsewhere.

 

[Cerberus III]

Oh sorry, was editing... look at what I wrote, that's a guess but I'm almost sure that's what it is.

I see, that sounds pretty accurate to me.

Damn, Mikael explain please!

 

[Nasty-Fire]

Yes but it's composition of words. Anyone can make like that. Sure it's not a word itself, it's actually Two words! They just have been put together to look nicier and more artistic I guess.

 

[AutumnElegy]

another SHIT THREAD

.

 

[Nasty-Fire]

Shut up, let others talk about what they want to talk. If you are going to judge of others' discussions this way just go kill yourself.

 

[AnTz0r]

anybody here who can still dig up the thesaurize-it thread?

 

[Nasty-Fire]

Depends. Is there any words anyone doesn't understand? I can try to explain.

 

[Hedon-]

Yes but it's composition of words. Anyone can make like that. Sure it's not a word itself, it's actually Two words! They just have been put together to look nicier and more artistic I guess.

pretty much like "windowpane"

 

[Nasty-Fire]

You got it!!! Kidin. Lol.

 

[Slynt]

Once again a thread crops up that has some actual merit, and we get people calling it shit.

In reply to the question about "moor", it has two meanings - a moor can indeed be a type of landscape (wikipedia is your friend if you want to know more), but in the context of Still Life we are talking about a Moor - you know, the Moors who held large parts of Spain in the Middle Ages before the reconquista.

 

[Metalstrm]

^ Are you sure of that? I was pretty sure it meant the landscape kind of moor. Then again, I haven't read the lyrics in so much detail.

 

[Nasty-Fire]

Yes. Try to explain when you say something. Refering to the story told by Still Life, the outcast had left his town (possibly nicknamed "The Moor"), and wants to come back into this dangerous territory (reference to The Moor, I guess) to see his love again and flee with her.

Make a clear and complete sentence if you want to be understood.

 

[Metamyr]

My sister and I were just having a conversation about this actually. She's getting into songwriting, and just starting to write lyrics for her music. She was explaining to me how her music teacher was trying to broaden her mind, to say things like "My heart is bleeding" rather than simply "I'm heartbroken".

I showed her some Opeth lyrics, since it seems like Mikael usually finds really complex, yet poetic and beautiful ways to phrase things. The vocabulary is definitely part of what makes opeth so amazing.

And to all you "Shit Thread" assholes... why are you here? The rest of us are having a good time, GTFO

 

[Nasty-Fire]

Absolutely. This is all very subtile, but when you take the time to understand what's written, you realize that it is pretty complex. And ummm.. fuck those who just say "shit thread". Yeah. Hmm...

 

[Metalstrm]

They usually have nothing to say except shit this and shit that. Along with "idiot", "moron", "stupid", and all the other names.

 

[Carta's]

Imho those of you who keep complaining about the "shit threadder" guys are just as annoying as those "shit thread" guys. Just ignore them, ffs
