I know many people may disagree, but I'm posting my opinion.
-
Fans either wish to fellate them or fellate them with chainsaws. A large percentage of the fans on this website are the former. Judging from the praises they sing of their favourite band, they tend to come out either as:
-
1) Opeth are quite easily the most beautiful band on the planet. Blending progressive and death metal, they create music which touches me on a level I've never been touched before.
-
or
-
2) omgz i luv teh op3th, stfu u slipnot fagits, opeth r00lz!!!!!!!
-
Both types of reviews are stupid. The only reason people find the music of Opeth so "revolutionary" and "unique" is because it's the first time they've experienced music that mixes clean and distorted guitars, as well as growled and clean vocals. Honestly, this is NOTHING new. Anyone who knows a shit about metal would know this to be true.
-
Apparently the music has atmosphere. No...no it doesn't. The time signatures change too much for you to get lost in the music in any way. The death growling and distorted guitars are just awkward and comes in at incredibly pointless times, as the songs have no structure and just tend to meander and meander and meander and meander and then end.
-
Hey, I like Opeth, but only their acoustic album. It's not that bad. But honestly people, some of you need to get your faces from Akerfeldt's pubes and just TRY listening to something else.
