KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Opeth for the first time....'death whispered a lullaby' from Damnation....and holy crap it's beautiful...why have i not heard this before? The guys voice is haunting and just..perfect.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan G Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Because they're extreme progressive metal... the album damnation is all acoustic though.Check out "the drapery Falls" for one of the best songs ever.It might bore you. Or it might open your eyes to whole new world Opeth are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 okay..well i'm listening to them on radiotakeover so i have a choice between the album damnation and deliverance. i might scout around for their website in a bit though..

Dan G Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 If you like the haunting acoustic-ness then you'll love damnation.If you like the acoustic bits but also want to be battered about with some awesome technical extreme progressive rock then check out deliverance.P.S. there is death metal singing on deliverance...

craig deadenstereo Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 I have some Opeth downloaded and on my winamp playlist. Normally I skip it cos I don't like it, but the othe rnight I was so pissed I couldn't be arsed getting off the couch so I listend to it and liked it. Although it may have been In Flames, Dillenger Escape Plan or some of the other metal I downloaded.

Dan G Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Originally posted by KarmaTsunami:see my feedback in jamesy's thread. i think i'll be investing in some Opeth. Get the album's "Deliverance and "Blackwater Park"Please? And then we can both go on about how amazing they are... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 i think 'deliverance' might be purchased quite soon.....well in my speak, soon means not this fridya but next when i get paid properly after a good 24hr week. woot! going on what i've heard by in flames i'll be getting 'reroute to remain' as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psydoll Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Good call on both albums - I'd be surprised if people hadn't checked out Opeth by now as there's so many fans on this board of them. Hell there was even a thread dedicated to them!Have to check out all my finances and see if I can go to Download or whether I'm just gonna have to wait for Leeds...

KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 soilwork also god bless radiotakeover.com and my desperate attempts to avoid anthropology revision!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan G Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Leslie you are doing well!Soilwork - "Natural Born Chaos"Soilwork - "Figure Number Five"Two of my favourite albums of all time... I'm guessing you've heard something from "Figure Number 5"?In Flames - "Clayman" (this album is a million times better than "reroute", however I'm not sure what aspect of In Flames you like, so therefore I'd advise downloading the songs "Bullet Ride" and "Only For The Weak" to see if you think they are better than the stuff you've heard from "Reroute to remain" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 no it was 'natural born chaos' i was listening to tracks from..and i'll definitely check out those in flames songs..once i find the means...see i'm listening to stuff via an internet radio site where you can requeast tracks, it's sweet as fuck but you can only listen to two songs an album and then it blocks you until a couple of days later....i don't think there's a download program i can put on this pc becuase it's a uni computer....but oh once i have the means!!but they have 'clayman'...so said songs have been requested.

Dan G Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Sweet... Well Natural Born Chaos is a fantastic album all the way through. I couldn't pick it's strongest tracks, although "As We Speak" is probably the most well known..."The Flameout" is a big favourite of mine...I love soilwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 i listened to the two songs from 'clayman'.....and they fucking rock. like bitches with rocks attached to their nipples. VERY kick ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan G Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Good stuff! I love those tracks, but that whole album is pretty consistant, and there's no weak stuff going on. The album before it "Colony" is also good..."Embody The Invisible" - great track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 ace, well radiotakeover only had the two albums to choose from...so there we go...i'm consistently craving new music.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayeth Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 If you want to see Opeth's acoustical genius at its best, get "Still Life"...fucking awesome album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon Of The Fall Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 yeah opeth fans!! i think still life or blackwater park would be a good start! Btw if you are getting into in flames id say clayman is their weakest album (not thats its not great) an album like Colony should be right up your streetoh and their newest album is going for 6:99 in virgin right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 6.99 you say? why that's cheap as chips!!.....give or take 5....but still!!*dances happy dance of cheap CDs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Scorge Spike Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 People only just getting into Opeth? Christ, I saw them live last year, very good they were too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 well i'm trying to broaden my musical horizon's...and since itend to like things at the heavier side of the musical spectrum i figured stuff like soilwork and opeth might be up my alley..
