Amazing chord development. It’s heavy because it inspires a natural feeling without the need for gimmicky stuff like thick distortion and hard mutes/drops to make something sound heavy
@Sanguine korvus yes, it is rare, they bred a shitton of copycat bands over the years, and just because every Prog-Death band sounds like Opeth or Death it doesn't take from the fact that both those bands have very characteristic sounds.
@@muratiren3257 "hz" at the start of a name is used for prophets in the Turkish Language. And Muhammed is the prophet of Islam so I did a wordplay in there pointing out Suiçmez's heavenly talent on guitar.
Opeth's riff is not that hard to play (at least compared to other prog bands). BUT what makes it special? The composition! Mikael is a riff machine, makes simple yet memorable riffs, perfect for intermediate guitarists going to more advanced guitarists. A perfect band for exercising your skills in riff composing and song writing. I believe that's what makes them really special.
Pretty much the entirety of The Leper Affinity is among the hardest Opeth songs to play. Lot of crazy and fast chord changes, lots of chromatic spider licks, fast, lots of riffs.
I remember Åkerfeldt saying The Moor was the hardest (at least for him). I don't remember where exactly, but I would have to agree with him. Still Life as a whole is probably their most technical album. There are definitely hints of that technical riffage on the other albums, but they don't go full out on any of the other records.
I remember Mikael saying in an interview how he wrote Still Life almost entirely in a guitar program (assuming guitar pro), so it just came out as a bunch of technical Morbid Angel riffs
What a cool guy, my favourite band for so many years. I'd rate The Moor the hardest but not necessarily strictly rhythm guitar (even though I don't consider it lead guitar for some reason). Because of that one pattern between verses around 5 minutes, so hard to nail the lick using pinky and going down the strings. Despite being a very normal pattern. Or Wreath intro, the jumps between chords are tough to be rhythmically accurate. Or By the Pain I see in the Others verse, that riff is like a nail gun.
Dream Theater hardest song on rhythm guitar please,John has lots of awesome and finger twisting riffs that have lots of fun to play, also love your videos🤘🏻🤘🏻
Jason Richardson, Jeff Loomis, so many harder stuff out there tbh. Even Keith Merrow. Oh wait, the King of Djent... Oh crap, forgot to mention Polyphia- G.O.A.T top 15 hardest riffee voted of 2020.
Just wanted to say that quite apart from the fact that you learned all these songs and played them perfectly, it's pretty amazing that you manage to pull them all into a medley that works and is enjoyable to listen to. Since I noticed it, it's often the part that impresses me the most about these videos. Most would have it be a jerky mess but you actually make something that's enjoyable to listen to, even for someone like me who's never listened to Opeth (or any of the others). Kudos to you.
Just a "piece of liquid" here. But you know I'm a huge Satch, and Gilbert fan as I've mentioned before. Except for this whole past week or so I've been on a serious Megadeth grind. Hearing Dave was done with treatment just has me so pumped. A touch of Pantera and Suicidal Tendencies also for an extra kick!
I was never an Opeth fan, nor did I take the time to listen to their music. But the riffs with your tasty tight rhythm playing has completely turned me and now I'm listening to these albums on repeat, as well as learning the riffs!
Opeth has quickly become one of my top 3 all time favorite bands after a few of their songs. Ghost of Perdition "verse" riff is might be my favorite of all time.
You look like the late Jon Nodtveidt and the guy mixing is called Oystein and you are covering Opeth so Christmas came early this year and great video \M/
Cool guitar. Tone is great. Opeth is one of a kind band. Been following them for around 13 years. Michael A. Can sing and scream with the best of them. Also very good guitar player.
@@markusjonsson8672 No, what you wrote is legit. I meant my comment as a joke, since there was only one guitarist in Pantera and he would sometimes record a rhythm track, so I wanted it to somehow fit the series of hard rhythm riffs ;p
For me "Master's Apprentices" and "Deliverance" were easier Songs to learn, well... for My level Because they are confusing in some parts, but Ghost Of Perdition opener riff Is kinda difficult for me hehe
