I couldn't imagine you wouldn't enjoy this, but seeing you move around and your facial expressions throughout the song was so satisfying. So, my recommendation for their first song was Harlequin Forest at the Royal Albert Hall. You will get a little glimpse of Mikael's humor and he starts the song with clean vocals, which might have made the growls more surprising. I still think that should be your next stop. However, you have no idea how many great songs are waiting for you. Ask 10 Opeth fans their favorite song and you'll get 30 answers. You're also right about their musicianship - the live and studio performances sound very similar. However, there are songs that I definitely think your should hear the studio version of first. But we'll get to those. Harlequin Forest first.
@RossOfRoni
@RossOfRoni 2 года назад
Just for some context: Mikael (the lead singer) has a bit of a different sound live nowadays when he does the death growls (including this concert performance) compared to the sound he had on their album recordings. You really ought to check out some of the older studio material to hear his death growl in its prime. The thing is, the way he did that original growl wasn't sustainable over time, especially considering how much touring Opeth tends to do. So he swapped to this newer style which is obviously much better on his vocal cords and enables him to, like, keep singing into his older age. With all that said, their newer albums have left the death metal stuff almost totally behind and it's morphed into more of a smoother progressive rock sound devoid of most all screams. Mikael's voice is just wonderful and their newest material really shows that. Enjoy!!

I recommend 'Porcelain Heart' next... or 'The Grand Conjuration'... or 'Hex Omega'... or... well technically you can pick any song from their vast discography, they're just progressive icons with no bad stuff. The thing is they have so vast discography, 13 albums, and they are not afraid to incorporate different influences in their music. They even have album with no heavy riffs or extended fast tempos, 'Damnation', or 'Heritage' which is more progressive rock than progressive death metal... and last four albums Mikael, the singer, does not growl anymore. So they are constantly changing, evolving... I want to say that your journey experiencing Opeth will be a pleasant one, enjoy!

Well, I'd say its probably more that they have to concentrate what they are doing---being that they don't use clicks (one of the few modern acts that doesn't) they have to listen to what the other members are doing to not screw up the timing during heavy syncopation parts.

Opeth is mind blowing...people probably should have requested the studio versions for the first introduction, though. This is a decent quality live video, especially for open air, but without hearing the production and arrangements on the album, you aren't getting the full effect. Listen to the studio versions to really "get it".

Opeth has remained one of my top bands together with Tool for probably 20 years. Every time you hear a song again with those two bands you discover new sounds, meanings or feelings.

One of the greatest bands in the history of music, no matter the genre. Recommendations: *Deliverance* (studio or live from the Lamentations DVD) - The outro section of that song is truly something else, especially if you enjoy rhythm. Apart from that, I will skip the usual suspects, because other people will recommend them en masse. Instead I'll recommend a few songs most reactors never get to. *Advent* (probably studio; don't know if there are any decent live recordings of this) - from their second and, in my opinion, still strongest album Morningrise *To Bid you Farewell* (same deal; probably studio) - Also Morningrise, and one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded *By the Pain I See in Others* (I think there is a decent live version of it on youtube, though they rarely play it during shows) - off the Deliverance album *When* (studio version recommended; they played it live, but I think they shortened it) - also an older song off the My Arms Your Hearse album. The final section of this song left me absolutely speechless, when I first discovered them at the tender age of 15.

Oh man I'm so happy you discovered Opeth. Do yourself a favor and go watch this same song played on The Roundhouse Tapes because Mikael was even more aggressive with his range because he focused a lot more on screaming back then. He's mellowed out his screaming because the band has transitioned into a pure prog non screaming sound. This song is the very first song on what I believe to be their absolute best album, Ghost Reveries, one of like 5 albums I've given a perfect 10/10. The song sounds like it could be an entire album on its own because it captivates you from beginning to end. Absolutely love it!

They're from Sweden, a great band and masters of transitions. The 'current band' members - Mikael Åkerfeldt/vocals, lyricist, lead guitar, composer and overall master of everything he does. Fredrik Åkesson also lead guitar Martin Mendez - bass Drums - Martin Axenrot (left the band recently) Joakim Svalberg- keyboards/mellotron Also Mikael Åkerfeldt has done the music for 'Clark' which will be on Netflix May 5th. Most likely will not be Opeth style though.

I was at this concert in May, 2017. I remember it was cold because Opeth headlined (after Devin Townsend and Gojira) and we didn’t dress warm enough. Other people we were with left, but I refused to leave until Opeth played my favorite song of theirs, Deliverance. My wife was a trooper and agreed to stay as long as I wanted. Of course, Opeth’s last song was Deliverance, but I’m thankful we stayed for the entire show because that 2017 Red Rocks show is one of the most legendary and referenced concerts on RU-vid. The idea my wife and I were there when it was happening is surreal. Thank God we stayed! With that being said, check out Deliverance from the Lamentations performance with Martin Lopez on drums (Martin Axenrot was the drummer in this video).

Absolutely amazing performance!!! Opeth is definitely one of those bands that are considered mind-blowing!!! I am so happy you got to react to them. Mikael has always had a great balance between his growls and his clean vocals. I definitely recommend Deliverance and Baying of the Hounds to react to next. I love your reactions Aileen. Always so sweet and lovely!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I am always curious to see if people think the same as I do about songs and bands. I remember buying this album when it came out and playing it nonstop for months. Friends would catch it in certain parts and say oh this is so nice, and then hear the growl. Each song is like 4 songs in 1.

You love double bass? Definitely check out Ne Obliviscaris - And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope. Great to see you react to Opeth, it definitely is one of the greatest bands ever!

Thank you so much for such a brilliant reaction to one of my favourite bands Opeth are just superb. There are so many brilliant tracks to check out. .. I noticed Porcelain Heart has been mentioned... brilliant track. A couple of tracks to check are ...The Moor, and Reverie/Harlequin Forest. Now you have entered the Opeth worm hole you won't be disappointed 👍 Looking forward to your next reaction. Peace and love from Liverpool UK 👍✌️🤘☮️

The drummer from this studio album went on to form SOEN - a band well worth checking out. Martin Lopez is considered by many to have been in the band when they were at their peak. Blackwater park and Ghost Reveries are the two records should concentrate on first. 👍

They are signed to the same management company as the following bands who you really should check out too. You won’t be disappointed. Devin Townsend Katatonia Paradise Lost Soilwork used to be on the same one too.

Your face when the keyboards first started coming in! HIGHLY recommend finding a good version of Opeth's Demon of the Fall! The album version is a piece of metal genius but there are some stunning live and acoustic renditions too.

Opeth are definitely an experience listening to them. A band I would suggest as a non-metal metalband would be Heilung. They reach into our primal minds and plant stories. Makes you feel like a warrior from 1000 years ago, whether you have that heritage or not. Really worth looking into if you haven't already, Krigsgaldr is a good one other reactors look at and one of my favorites

Must give huge cudos to the magic man Magnus that manages the lightshow. Some of it are pre-programmed but most of their shows is done manually. By the way, welcome hun to the mighty world of Opeth.

Opeth is SICK. A band with so much depth, and so much variation. Btw I get your ''down with the sickness vibe'' of the drum, this kinda has the same 'battle-drums'' in some parts. Recommend this whole album; the follow up to this song, Baying of the Hounds, IS INSANE. I can not listen to Ghost of Perdition without listening to Baying of the Hounds, which quickly turns into the whole album. Harlequin Forest is also an extremely good one. But personally I wanna see your reaction to Opeth's Sorceress. It's a whole different song than this one, but in a way just as epic and just as cool. On a side note, I'd also love to see you continue your Devin Townsend journey. You've done two, but he's got way more to blow you away with :) The Funeral/Bastard/Death of Music trilogy live from Royal Albert Hall would be my recommendation. Tho it's a long trip; you will love it for sure!

This is my favourite Opeth song. I love the melodic interludes in contrast to the heavy. Regarding the recording, all such shows are recorded one a line level and mixed for a release like this. Normally one records a stereo track of the room to give the ambience of the kive show.

As I have seen in some other comments Harlequin Forest is something you should check out. My favorite Opeth song though is Hours Of Wealth which I can only describe as breathtakingly beautiful.

The comparison to “Down with the Sickness” hurt. Great Reaction though. I ,as I assume everyone, like to live vicariously through the lucky people who get to hear Opeth and other bands for the first time.

My favorite version of this song. Opeth are brilliant. Seeing them in just over a week with Mastodon. CAN. NOT. WAIT! And yeah, it's NOT hard for them. Ace players and Akerfeldt is a freaking genius. This will go down as one of the finest live DVDs ever. OH, if you haven't seen Gojira at Red Rocks that's sick too! It's the same night when they opened for Opeth.

I knew you would love Opeth! Swedish Metal is the real deal you know. Hehe. Looking forward to see more reactions! RU-vid tried to hide this one from me but finally found it. You love drums. Let me give you Norwegian drummer Baard Kolstad, unless you know already. He plays in the avant garde-ish band Leprous and is eeirdly good. Therr is a drummer cam video of him playing drums for the song ”The Sky Is Red” in a studio. You will love it. Cheers! Stay Metal! 🤘😎🤘

I understand how you feel but don’t beat yourself up. You’ve found them now. Enjoy the ride. What I wouldn’t give to experience my Opeth journey for the first time. A modern mold of the greats like Zeppelin, Purple, and Sabbath. And I don’t say this lightly.
