    Seen them 11 times and they were amazing everything. Mikael Akerfeldt is funny as hell! He loves to joke with the audience and asks for song request.. The most memorable was when a fan brought him a Big Mac while the show was on and he sat down onstage and ate it... the band just improvised a song while ate. He then took out his wallet and paid the fan back..... really cool. Not a band that you can "pit" to, tho!

      i have seen opeth several times, but never saw anything involving a big mac. i did see them on halloween once and a fan dressed up in a chicken suit and mikael called him up on stage for some interplay for a few minutes. then he dared him to stage dive. when the dude was hesitant, mikael said, "what's the matter? are you chicken?" so the chicken jumped off, but accidentally unplugged mikael's guitar from the amp. when they went to play the next song mikael noticed what had happened and calmly pointed out to the crowd and said, "fuck you, chicken." everyone was laughing their asses off.

    I’m not super familiar with Opeth but I like them. Fun metal. Sophisticated music and easily can put me in another realm. These 2 songs were excellent; my 1st time hearing these. I’ll check out these songs again. I also enjoy the layers, time signature changes, transitions and different moods, along with the expert musicianship. Very well said; it made me appreciate the music that much more.

    Saw them live 6 time and they were amazing every night. Opeth is a big blend of everything I love in music. Emotions, atmosphere, heaviness, technical from time to time but never to the point where it get tasteless. Their music brings images in my head and there are a lot of details in every songs. No other band quite like them

    I've been to 3 Opeth concerts. The first time I went I was tearing up from the epic-ness and I was just getting waves of goosebumps from the back of my neck to my arms and legs. They played at the Riviera Theatre in Chicago. I remember them playing Porcelain Heart, Baying of the Hounds, Harlequin Forest, Ghost of Perdition, and I'm not sure but I think they also played Benighted. This was round 2011 or something. Then the second one I went to was at a different venue, also in Chicago, but it didn't give me the same orgasmic experience because the balcony we were seated at would vibrate like hell and it interfered with the experience. They played with Mastadon I think. Then the third one I went to was fucking awesome they played with Katatonia and I fell in love with Katatonia. They played some Heritage Album songs and I was fucking blown awaaay, the feelings were rich. People may disagree with me about Heritage, but I think it's in a League of it's own as a masterpiece. You need an ear for it; might as well be a different band.

All worth a listen. At this point you should do album reactions lol. FOr your next reaction, I would advise you to listen to:
    - The Moor
    - Deliverence
    - Ghost of Perdition
    - The Drapery Falls

    I got to see Opeth three times when I was in College. One they played with Porcupine Tree and another Devin Townsend opened. As you can imagine, those were truly awesome nights. They are incredible live. And they really play well off each other, it's not like the musicians are just playing the part assigned to them. They are a cohesive unit in which each member just instinctively knows what the others are are thinking and feeling.

      DT is the most overrated prog band I know.
      Meanwhile Opeth keeps their integrity of compositions being a new classic, DT still uses strong old heavy and prog influences.
      Construction of Opeth's songs are mind blowing... DT barely a revelation of what prog can do!
      Try Haken, Igorrr, Native Construct or Leprous. DT is big in US, not so much around the world - at least not anymore.

      Ive listened Haken. The Mountain, Affinity, and Virus are all really good. There were only a few songs from Vector that I liked.
      The other bands mentioned, I’ve only heard a song or two. I’m one of those that only listen to a couple of albums a year. If I like the album, I listen until I almost get burned out. I’m usually behind.

    Amazing band. They have been my absolute favourites since I was 15. It took me a little while to come around to the new prog-direction as I always knew them as a pure metal bands. The albums post-ghost are very different, apart from Watershed, but they are all very good in their own unique right. I strongly recommend listening to The River, Eternal Rains will come, Era, Lines in my Hand, A Fleeting Glance and Will I Wisp for a good sample of their new sound and direction.

  • @callespringer9718
    @callespringer9718 2 роки тому

    Åkerfeldt's sound is so freaking unique. I don't know how he does it. Like, it's quite unconventional, but it always sounds "Opeth". That even goes for his scoring of that recent Netflix series "Clark", it sounds unmistakably "Opeth" (or rather, "Åkerfeldt") ...
    I'm fairly well oriented in music theory and everything, multi-instrumentalist for some 20 years, and I know exactly what he is doing, analyzing it in retrospect. What I don't know is how he gets these musical ideas, whether it's Opeth songs or as we've seen recently, television series scores. They're all so incoherent, yet definitely Åkerfeldt.
    PS I do believe Åkerfeldt claimed to be completely clueless about music theory. Clearly he isn't, but perhaps he's one of those guys that have a good grasp of it intuitively, without knowing the "lingo".

      Is that it? Your only complaint is that a guy who has never listened to this band before got the name of a song wrong? Lol, hahahahahahah.... this is the funniest comment Ive read all day.

      @@TheAdventuresofTNT You have 5 Opeth songs on your channel. You know very well who they are. Just get the songs right, please. Musicians work very hard to make great music, and it needs to be respected. Opeth are legends.

    Hot take
    Ghost reveries is their weakest album since morningrise. Songs don't go well together, nonsensical change ups, ballads work as exposition rather than building atmosphere , too many interludes and the pacing of the songs are horrible compared to even songs on watershed. Harlequin Forest, GOP, Isolation years are great, the rest is directionless shite that just tries to be prog for the sake of being prog. It's always like the songs are good up until the 4 minute mark, then they just fall apart.
