  • @Jaymzmiller
    @Jaymzmiller 3 роки тому +18

    The reason it feels like an abrupt start to the song is because of a mistake when printing the album. It's called "Reverie/Harlequin Forest" but the Reverie part was mistakenly added to the end of the previous song, rather than the start of this one. So what you're hearing is actually just Harlequin Forest. If you look up the Opeth song "Atonement" and listen to the last minute of that one, you'll hear the "Reverie" part that is meant to start this song.
    Either way, cool reaction. This is one of my all time favourite songs, and definitely one of Opeth's best imo.

    Well , Tatiana from Jinjer has stated that Michael is a big influence for her growls. She aspired to sound like him when she started growling. She didn't want to sound like a girl with her extreme vocals. Also , Opeth is one of Eugene's (bass player from Jinjer) favorite bands.

    I recently also got into Opeth after several years of discovering Dream Theater, Tool, Unleash the Archers, Fates Warning, among others. With a classical music education, it makes me appreciate so much more the art of progressive metal. It makes me appreciate more the 'growl', of which I never used to be a fan. Kudos to you both for discovering Opeth :)

      Hallo Tobias, Gruß aus Düsseldorf. Opeth ist phantastisch, aber nur Opeth wäre auf Dauer auch nix :-) Klar, keine Band hat diese schöne Abwechslung zwischen clean und growl (ausser Jinjer natürlich ) aber es gibt doch so viele gute Prog/Progmetalbands oder wie auch immer das Genre heisst; Hauptsache ist doch dass die Musik gut ist und gefällt, z.B. mein bisheriges Highlight in 2021 ist die neue Scheibe von Soen, Joel Ekelöf ist auch ein hervorragender Sänger, ich habe sie 2mal live gesehen

Anfragen zu musikalischen Empfehlungen sind eine angenehme "Pflicht" :-) man hört dann auch mal wieder genauer bei CDs hin, die man vielleicht länger nicht gehört hat, habe zuletzt nur die neue Soen gehört. Ich bin bei Soen mit der Tellurian eingestiegen, hieraus mal die Titel Koniskas und Ennui anhören, von der Lykaia Orison, Jinn und Paragon, das deckt so ziemlich das Soen Spektrum ab. Sie wurden ja anfangs von Tool Fans als Plagiat verschrien, ich mag zwar die Band Tool, die Fans sind mM.die intolerantesten, die es gibt. Tool Style darf nur Tool spielen, so ein Schwachsinn. Stell dir mal vor Dream Theater Fans würden alles verdammen, was ähnlich klingt.... arme Musikwelt. Noch eine kleine Geschichte zu Soen, auf der Lykaia Tour haben mein Sohn und ich sie in Köln im Underground vor 200-250 Leuten gesehen, wir standen 1 Meter vor Marcus Jidell (jetzt leider nur noch Avatarium), ich hätte voll mitklampfen können :-) Wie du siehst, habe ich viel zu erzählen und bin immer am Austausch mit Musikfreunden interessiert.

    Guys,
    A HUGE recommend (because you said your 1st Death Metal band was "Jinger"); See the BangerTV series "Metal Evolution" (I think its available on Netflix), but one of the episodes is available here at Yt, because VH1 (where they were 1st featured on), didn't want to finance it, because they thought it be too harsh for their audience: "Metal Evolution: Extreme Metal". It will give you a great history of Death Metal (albeit, some bands are not mentioned that were extremely important).
    Also the "Death" (the groundbreaking Death Metal band) doc: "Death by Metal" and the story of Guitarist Chuck Schuldiner, which I know you will enjoy. Even just for Metal history.

    Hey, Nick'n'Lex, loved this reaction, thanks :) Opeth are fantastic at the smooth segue between jazzy grooves and punishing.
    I note you referred to Jinjer as a Death Metal band... while Tatiana is a great growler, and they're a great band, nobody who actually listens to Death Metal is going to agree with that assessment :D
    So here are a bunch of actual, but relatively accessible Death Metal recommendations, in case you want to actually go there!
    Like every other metal genre, DM has plenty of sub-genres, which I've indicated here:
    DM - Bolt Thrower, 'Anti-Tank (Dead Armour)', 2005
    Melodic DM - Insomnium, 'The Killjoy', 2006
    Melodic DM - Dark Tranquillity, 'Final Resistance', 2002
    Technical DM - Arsis, 'Shattering the Spell', 2008
    Progressive DM - Disillusion, 'Back to Times of Splendor', 2004
    Death'n'Roll - Entombed, 'Chief Rebel Angel', 2001

      And Swedish folk music. In fact this is so much Swedish folk music both thematically and musically that it makes me smile so much. If metal fans only knew how seriously uncool of a music style the roots of this music comes from. Basically you could exchange the instruments for fiddles and you would have folk music.

    Opeth's always welcome!
    Just remember to return to Joni Mitchell who's also very much admired by Mikael Åkerfeldt (Opeth-s mastermind). The song Jericho was my recommendation - to me one of the greatest songs of all times (keep an ear out for Jaco Pastorious at the peak of his sensability/creativity... 😊

    You questioned, with the syncopated rhythm how do they play this live. When you have 13+ minutes to focus on it, and on your own, no need to react to the same song twice, look up this song live at Royal Albert Hall. It's very impressive.

  • @arinsoru
    @arinsoru 3 роки тому

    Blackwater Park is my favorite song from Opeth, but I believe this song is more like an acquired taste for people who are not used to growls, since this song is all growls. If you liked that Harlequin Forest was not all growls then you might want to listen to Ghost of Perdition, Deliverance. Then increase the amount of growls with Master's Apprentice and Blackwater Park

    Suggestion! Unleash the Archers - Awakening (Full Band Playthrough on UA-cam). Whereas Rush is more of the Canadian prog rock scene, Unleash the Archers is of the Canadian prog metal scene with a female lead singer. :)

    So this was some time after their collaborations with Steven Wilson? More then a bit has rubbed off! Heard this somewhere years ago - now know what is. Likely on Mike Ostrich's Progscape Radio (now a monthly Prog roundup) who has a really wide taste; plays tracks pulled from 60's to now. Excellent!
