walksalone Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 hands down, one of the best riffs ever written... Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 New Opeth leaked, I think. It's definitely Mikael singing. Will probably be taken down before too long. I'm looking forward to the new album, but I think a lot of old school fans are gonna be pissed. The close minded ones who basically want the same album made over and over again. And the scream/growl only crowd who wont listen to any clean vocals. To be fair, I think Mikael has more of a talent for writing heavier music than he does writing more progressive-type stuff. However, I don't mind the direction they seem to be going, I just hope they improve upon Heritage. Quote Link to comment

Demon of the Fall, Blackwater Park and Deliverance, are three of the best songs, I've ever heard. I think he needs to stop hanging around Steven Wilson so much, and go back to the Blackwater Park/Ghost Reveries stuff. Thats when It thought they were at the top of their game...

The Dude Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Kind of hilarious how Opeth fanboys have hijacked Roadrunner's facebook page for not making good on their announcement of an Opeth single. https://www.facebook.com/roadrunnerrecords Kind of feel bad for those other bands, though . . .

walksalone Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 To me it seems like he didn't warm up or something. It sounded bad when he first started singing, but his voice sounded great towards the middle and end. It's just a demo recorded all in one shot, after all. I only heard the last few minutes of it, I heard it on the Sirius/XM on the way back from the gym. Later on I'm going to sit down, listen to it the whole way through. Ok, I've listened to the whole thing, and I'm not remotely impressed. James has power in his voice, and where's the distortion in the guitars? It's essentially a song, taken from Reload (of Sh*t) and some parts of "Justice" thrown in, and it just doesn't work at all... Ok, I've heard the song again twice in the past two days, and I've figured out whats missing. There's no bottom end in the songs what so ever. Their distortion is all midrange. Whoever is mixing their guitar sound is pooping the bed... Quote Link to comment
