Blackwater Park is their masterpiece in my opinion. The track aswell as the album.
I have to listen to it at least once a month. Opeth is really good.
Opeth! Every song is a masterpiece
The whole concert is well worth watching,an amazing band.
Might be my fav concert to watch start to finish
They're one of a kind. I absolutely love them. ❤ Perfect. Not a bad song in their catalogue - as far as I heard them. And Yes. They are the absolute kings of prog-metal. & His voice is just 😍
Lovely ones (lyrics video) , e.g. In my time of need

Windowpane
ua-cam.com/video/b05u7zOl8_o/v-deo.html - Not live / video included, but you already heard they sound just the same live.
Absolute is debatable, since Progmetal actually has tens x tens of legendary and amazing bands, but yeah Opeth/DreamTheater/Rush basically are the three godfathers, in that they are the founders. And yes, Opeth is absolutely legendary. But the more you delve into prog, the more you'll find other legendary artists. @sevsimo, Opeth was founded in 1990 btw.
@@TFOLLT how far (off) do we go with that? (A year before Rush was born they gave birth to this album. They= Pink Floyd) ua-cam.com/video/DQdScu_UbI0/v-deo.html

Going into Prog Death Metal with Opeth now!!! Yesss😎🤘
Other bangners from Opeth: Deliverance, Harlequin Forest & Bleak 🔥🔥
awesome will check them out cheers!
Don't forget Blackwater Park :)
Yes, please do not forget Black Water Park.
Yet another request for Blackwater Park. Actually the whole album is considered peak of their career by many, and this specific song is just something else.
They are absolutely the best band in the world! I love them so much!
The best progmetal band !!
my favs are Masters Apprentices, The Baying of the Hounds, Coil/Heir Apparent and The Grand Conjuration !
Baying of the hounds is amazing.
A very genuine reaction. Nice to see someone enjoying Opeth so much. Try (the studio) version of a combination of two songs from the album 'Watershed'. The combination of songs is called 'Coil/Heir Apparent'. I can imagine it will blow you out of your chair...
thank you my friend will be sure to check them out!
@@sevsimo Definitely a great suggestion from Mark.
Honestly I can't recommend anything less than a full album reaction to Watershed. It's completely brilliant. For smaller choices, I suggest Bleak or my favorite: Deliverance (live at Red Rock).
Harlequin Forest or Masters Apprentice; the later is really Choppy!
done, will check those out too, especially the really choppy one haha!
If you want a rollercoaster of a ride from a song look no further than Opeth! Really looking forward to what else you check out from them next. The Drapery Falls, Heir apparent, Beneath the Mire and Blackwater Park are 4 phenomenal songs worth delving into that have some serious length and tons of change ups that show case their ability to shift from heavy to clean in a heartbeat and not feel like its jarring. They always find a way to flawlessly string their sections together and all show off their talents as musicians.
I was at this Red Rocks show back when I lived in Colorado and my mind was blown the whole time
If you want live... Opeth - Master's Apprentices (Live at Shepherd's Bush Empire, London)
One of a kind orchestra. Always evolving, never disappointing.
Deliverance is my favorite. The story behind the lyrics is nuts
I love Opeth ❤ last month I was an Opeth's Concert from Brazil
Opeth=Movies
You should react to their song The Heir Apparent
Yes they are great brother! Now you need some NeObliviscaris an Aussie progressive metal child of Opeth. They will become a fave of yours. ForgetNot,Devour Me Colosses,Intra Venus or basically any song. Lol.
This is their magnum opus. It's so good!
That's a tricky one, "I hope their music haven't changed, that they kept their originality". Songs are pretty different from before and after this, but I'm sure very few people would complain about the originality in any case 😊.
This concert was amazing. I bought tickets the day they went on sale, and figured out flights and lodging after, not realizing it would become an album release. Still one of the strongest lineups i have ever seen live. Also my introduction to Devin Townsend
Definitely check out Harlequin Forest!
Opeth, Karnivool and Tool are all absolute musts for anyone who likes prog rock/metal
To me, this is a perfect song and probably my 2nd favorite song by this band. I enjoyed your reaction!
Master's Apprentices, please! I love both your Opeth reactions, very genuine. Your happiness while listening is making me happy as well.
Opeth is like a long magical journey, you never know where they're going to take you! You should go see them, incredible musicians.
Glad you enjoyed this. And yes, they've been around since the 90s. Excellent choice for a introduction to them as well, I would have recommended this or Blackwater Park as a first listen to Opeth. Looks like this was recorded at Red Rocks Amphitheater (outside of Denver) ... that would have been an awesome show as I loved seeing bands there back when I lived in Colorado.
Check out the studio version of "Deliverance" next by them please!!! :D
Opeth has been my favorite band for quite a while now, over 10 years. This band is unique, and you won't find anything close to Opeth. Things inspired by it, yeah, but that really sound like Opeth? No. They really mastered that eerie feeling in their music, it really sound like if Opeth songs were literally haunted by ghosts. It's melancholic, eerie, sad but at the same time, so agressive, insidious and violent in its on way.
love them.
Opeth and Tool are two of my top five favorite bands. You're getting into both. Consider me subbed, my man.
Ha ha! Opeth have evolved their sound a few times. I like it all
fvkin vibed with that a super lot. unbelievable energy.
Just came from your Tool video and now THIS! Tool and Opeth are my two favorite bands full stop. Harlequin Forest is another great one. Awesome reactions very cool keep it up :)
thank you bro! will be sure to check it out!
Great reaction dude! Some other cool prog-metal band is ne obliviscaris you should react to their song "and plague flowers the kaleidoscope" and there is also a live version ob yt
thank you!
awesome will be sure to check em out love discovering new bands!
I was blessed to be at this show. Next to Pink Floyd in 1993, in San Francisco, this was the best show I’ve ever seen! Opeth is the truth! I’ve been a fan since My Arms, Your Hearse was first released. They get better with each album. Just a special band….🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
2:52 I loved that 😂
Master class in drumming
70' looks
Opeth + Pantera + Faith No More = JINJER
Great reaction! You put words at your experience and feelings about it and I totally agree. Very well expressed and I can tell you're really into the song and performance, no doubt. That's the most important thing about a good reaction video.
I would also recommend to check out 'Harlequin forest' live at Royal Albert hall 2010.
fvkin loved that a super lot. god tier level of quality. 🔥🔥🔥
No band like Opeth.. welcome to the rabbit 🐇 hole 🕳
Hey sevsimo, I've arrived at this. When I saw a new reactor that had a reaction to Opeth, and only just started his channel, I wanted to see your evolution and how you've arrived at Opeth. Suffice to say, it was not disappointing. I love your vibe, your reactions, your energy and your passion! Keep it up man, I'm gonna follow this channel fr! Oh and btw, you and I are one and the same when it comes to the importance of Bass, and why we prefer fingerbass over pickbass. I've always loved bass, and love that you give the bassists a lot of credit!
When you started doing your rant about how insane it is that this is live, and how a band is only as good as it's live performances, I gotta recommend you something new. A band every Opeth fan knows, but you haven't reacted to yet. They're called Porcupine Tree. Started around the same time as Opeth, and Mikael Akerfeldt(Opeth's frontman), is friends with Porcupine Tree's frontman(Steven Wilson). They are a lot like Opeth, a lot of people consider Opeth and PT to be twins, with the one laying more into progmetal(opeth) and the other going more into progrock(PT). Steven Wilson actually mixed an Opeth Album, and they've made songs together too. The main reason I'm recommending them however, is not because they're a bit like Opeth; it's because Porcupine Tree's Lives are OUT OF THIS WORLD. Literally. I've been visiting concerts basically every month for over 12 years now(with the exception of covid lockdown), and never ever have I seen a better live performance than Porcupine Tree.
You're gonna love them. Porcupine Tree is an incredible experience. I'd start with either ''Arriving Somewhere but not Here'', ''Fear of a Blank Planet'' or ''Anesthetize''. Doesn't matter which one you start with though, what matters is that you pick the live version over the studio version(there's incredible ones from all of those pieces). I'm really looking forward to more progmetal/progrock reactions man, keep up the good work, I'm enjoying your journey fr! And keep doing Opeth too, they have so much, so, so much....
Greetings from Mexico \m/ , great, sincere and funny reactions.
greetings Juan thank you appreciate the comment!
Sev, if you want choppy and heavy, listen to Blackwater Park the album in it’s entirety. You won’t be disappointed….
So many songs from that set/performance are absolute classics! All of them as a worthwhile watch!
They use PRS guitars with special piezo pickups to get the acoustic-like guitar sounds in the clean parts live. They're special kinds of sorcery that actually pickup the vibrations of the guitar itself rather than sound of the instrument.
Subscribed!
(Cause you're spelling out the arguments about what and why ❤)
Awesome, welcome to this rabbit-hole :) I would recommend Harlequinn Forest (live at Royal Albert Hall), Blackwater Park (studio), Deliverance (studio) and more :)
MORE!!!
One of their best songs! and the Deep Purple like tones roll on!
@13:11 = THIS!!!! And a band is only as good as they get along in tha practice space!
Nice reaction dude🇸🇪
MASTERS APPRENTICE official audio ... choppy chop choppy chop!
haha done!! looking forward to it!
@@sevsimo Harlequin Forest in my opinion is their bet as it captures the essence off this band. Songs like Masters apprentice and Heir Apparent have great chops and growls. Opeth has an unbelievable variety to their music and it is all top notch.
Opeth are ever evolving too which makes them even more legitimate. They sound like a different band these days and I'm loving the new direction too.
Tool, Opeth, and Porcupine Tree are the unholy trifecta. You'll get there soon enough, I'm sure.
technically they dont have lead or rhythm both the lead singer Mikael and Fredrik play an equal amount of guitar work they both shred solos and play rhythm. one of my favorites ive been listening to them since 05, and they started back in 1990 God fathers of prog metal fits well.
Ok but if you like these guys you NEED to check out Porcupine Tree. If you want a recommendation for a first song I'd recommend Fear of a Blank Planet. The entire album of the same name is a masterpiece. Also Bleak by Opeth was produced by the lead singer of Porcupine Tree and he is featured in some vocals on the song.
New Opeth fan 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Saw them live a few months ago. They still play this one and other complete bangers. And they do those songs veey well, but the lead singer doesn't do growls anymore on their newer albums and their newer stuff is more progrock than progmetal. I like it both. Yeah I'm a fan😄😄
Opeth is a genre at this point.... Just like bands like Pantera, Dog Fashion Disco, Faith No more.... many many more to name.. (Big Dumb Face, Twelve Foot Ninja) you get the point.
They're one of Jinjer's big influences and Eugene's fave band. Note, all albums after 2008's Watershed changed style and do not have death metal vocals. They turned into a jazzy prog rock band. Lots and lots of people like their newer stuff, I can't say I'm one of them sadly. I appreciate it, it's just not my thing. Some of their earlier bangers to check out: Demon of the Fall, Blackwater Park, Deliverance, The Drapery Falls, and The Night and The Silent Water.
It’s at red rocks Denver Colorado outside
Please listen to the whole Damnation album. Hauntingly beautiful
People will fervently disagree with me but, this is Opeth's magnum opus. It's everything, everywhere, all at once and one of my favorite tunes of all time, actually. In any genre of music. Nevertheless, the vast majority of Opeth's oeuvre is very very similar and never ever gets better than THIS. Just saying.
Check out Deliverance from the same night.
A lot of these bands have been around for years. Gojira started in the late 90s. These guys around 90. Behemoth ( my favorite black metal band) mid 90s. Ect. Lorna shore started in 2014. Most of them evolve their sound. Behemoth went from ridiculous death metal to more of storytelling theatrical sound these guys went softer.
Subbed for Opeth and Tool.
They started in 1990. The lead singer Mikael Akerfelft joined the band in '92 and is a big fan of 70's prog and rock and is the longest running member of the band. The bassist Martin Mendez joined around '98.
thank you man and I appreciate the comment!
if ya wanna here some amazing prog metal look up ayreon the day that the world breaks down
Great stuff man👍. Still waiting wintersun reaction😂
Winterscam you mean? Lol
thanks man, gonna check it out soon!
@@sevsimo you definitely have to... Time or Suns Of Winter&Stars (live rehearsals) and you probably will recognize the drummer & bassist... at least when doing newer nightwish stuff.😉
Have you checked out the Finnish band AMORPHIS? Check the live performance of the song "The Bee" (Wacken Open Air 2018).
Re: them being absolutely on point the entire video.. Their singer told a story that when they first started out their first live gig was a disaster so they went back to their basement and decided to not play again to anyone before they were really good. They even started training in pitch black darkness to master their instruments, turning on the lights when someone played wrong and everyone pointing to that person. Now... they're flawless in execution.
🔥🔥❤Opeth❤🔥🔥
~ ~ ~ Heck yeah ~ ~ ~
Subscribing for more!
One of their great ones is Coil/Heir Apparent if you're gonna do more.
thank you!
@@sevsimo 🤘

@@progperljungman8218 🤘🙂 Still making the rounds I see. 😁
@floridabelle
🇬🇧
...I'm far behind you('62)!
My favorite albums are "Heritage" & "Watershed" - but this Live-Event I miss words to describe to...!
Greetings from 🇩🇪...!
Opeth started in 1990
You cannot say that before experience Dream Theater and Symphony X. Here are some of their songs a first listener might like (long song warning!) Dream Theater - The Dance of Eternity (ua-cam.com/video/8Ik9qECIWgc/v-deo.html), Symphony X - The Odyssey (ua-cam.com/video/inqC_yDCfc4/v-deo.html)
They started 1995!
Nice reaction man. Heard Meshuggah? You should really check them out.
Modern day Mozart
The Godfathers of Prog-Metal are definetly Dream Theater. Rethinking... Yes, they are!
Yep!
Check out "Dante's Inferno" Live In Athens by Iced Earth. You will not be disappointed
SikTh. Listen to SikTh.
"Med Reacts to Saxons - Metal Edition"
the title of godfathers would belong to KING CRIMSON-21ST CENTURY SCHIZOID MAN
Opeth is Opeth. Dream Theater are the original prog metal masters. Opeth has a wide range of styles from Death metal to soft rock and everything in between.
if you want to try something much less known, check out David Maxim Micic "cry"
The gods of prog should be next. Dream theater… enough said haha
Rabbit h(Opeth)le.
Brooooo, I fuckin love how much you love this! No offence but you look str8 outta Bankstown and your music knowledge and comments is blowing my mind 😅
Give Blackwater park a crack. Ghost of perdition live is definitely the best listen, but go studio for Blackwater park. Opeth are 11 out of 10
Fully sick song Habib haha!
Appreciate the comment and the recommendation my man will be sure to check it out!
Tool and Opeth are gamechangers. They make over 90% of irrelevant
Jinjer and now Opeth. You seem to be gravitating towards what another reactor has called "aggressive jazz" music. Sooner or later you must listen to Gojira and Meshuggah. Meshuggah in particular are also "the" major influencer in the heaviest example of this genre first recording in the late 1980's.
hey my man thanks for the comment, will be checking out Meshuggah very soon. I have already reacted to Gojira the other day, was an absolute banger! Vid is up on my channel 😎
Straight talk: IMO, the studio version delivers much better pacing on the last 2 minutes than this live version of this track. Still, Opeth are absolute legends in their own right. I’d say if you’re into “meta”, anything up to Watershed delivers. Past that, you’re into an overload of 70’s-esque prog rock with a bunch of over-produced analog sound. If that’s still your jam, then a huge calatog to go through here. 👍👍
Try Sorceress at Red Rocks
Godfathers of prog? Nope, far from it. Prog has been around since the 60s with bands like King Crimson, later bands like Rush (2112, and later in the 80s with Queensryche ( metal wise ). Opeth has been around 1990.
🤟🔥🤟🫡 now its Time for Tool one the Greatest Bands of All Time check out Sober it will blow your mind ✌️
i just reacted to Tool - The Pot, video will be live in a few hours was soo good! Will check out Sober also cheers man!
@@sevsimo 😅👌nice my Man ✌️
This is the only song I like by them but can see why people love them. Just not my cup of tea. Just to busy and to much going on
fair enough my man!
Godfathers? Nah. Not even close. Off by a few decades.
I cannot take any song with growling seriously. It is just so cheesy. That has always kept me away from Opeth as a whole.
Like, half their catalogue has no growling vocals bro.
