u čemu je fora???

 

uzmi preslušaj, pa ćeš i videti..

 

evo, jedan od novinara koji provodi vreme u studiju sa opethom, je o novom albumu rekao ovo::

 

 

Heard four songs and was blown away....basically, they encompass all things Opeth with a confidence and aggressiveness that smells like a band's best record. Mikael Akerfeldt told the truth when he talked about a return to the heaviness Opeth is known for. The album's opener, "Ghost of Perdition" explodes into a god-like riff (replete with his unholy roar) before clobbering you with riffs and musical moves that stretch and break the limits of what can be done within the same song.

 

You can hear a band so self-assured it's frightening. Keyboardist Per Wiberg -- now a fulltime member of Opeth -- adds hugely to the band's sound without overwhelming or softening the intensity of things. Akerfeldt possesses a much stronger vocal range. And drummer Martin Lopez throws in a lot freer range of rhythms and percussion than you've ever heard in Opeth's sound in the past.

 

As strong as the sound and mix of the record was with Steven Wilson on the past three record, the sound of this record is crushing. The band, along with engineer/mixer Jens Borgen have crafted a sound that is totally intricate and in your face. I can't wait til the world hears this record.

hehe..

jedva čekam

sve jedno.

 

opeth je na finom putu da postane najveći death metal bend ikada.. samo da ovaj album fino prođe. marketing se zahuktava.

To je ono sto je najveci napredak i imalo kroz godine. Ostalo je kudikamo sve u krug.

novi Opeth:Deliverance i Damnation sve prije toga je stariji.Pa najbolji je bas zato sto je experiment i zabava.VI jednostavno ne mozete podnjeti da neko ima drugacije misljenje no.gif Te jebo otac da te jebo mrred.gif

Gresis.

Prvo - Deliverance spada u istu skolu sa Still Life i Blackwater Park, odnosno, to je sve "novi Opeth", i tu nema nikakve rasprave. To sto si ti poceo da ih slusas tek sa D&D-om je tvoja stvar. Kao sto je moja stvar sto sam poceo da ih slusam tek sa BwP.

Drugo - Damnation pricu je Krang objasnio - taj se album jednostavno ne moze porediti sa ostalim, pa da kazes "Damnation je bolji od Orchid", jer je potpuno izdvojen iz citavog opusa.

pa eto, sad sam završio sa ulverom , pa prelazum polako na opeth..

 

hehe.

 

ozbiljno, evo najnovijeg intervjua sa mikaelom, do sada najviše detalja o novom albumu.. veoma dobar intervju, rađen pre par dana, kada su konačno izašli iz studija:

 

Q: What's been happening since Damnation?

 

 

 

A: "Well, eventually we stopped touring! The last gig was Sweden Rock last summer, so since then I became a Dad and that's basically all I've been doing for months, looking after my wife as she was about to pop, so to speak, going to the doctors, having a kid, which was awesome, and hanging out with my family... and obviously I've been writing the new stuff. I set a date when I knew I had to start writing for real."

 

 

 

Q: Has Ghost Reveries been written on your trusty battered acoustic?

 

 

 

A: "Yeah, it has actually. I've done a lot of stuff on that old guitar. I've got a whole 8-channel recording thing at home now, so I did all the demos at home. As before, the guys came over, I did them CDs of the demos. We actually started rehearsing this time too! We rehearsed for two or three weeks. We figured we'd be recording the album in three weeks, but we started March 15th and I just got home. It was the total opposite of what we expected."

 

 

 

Q: So what should we expect from Ghost Reveries?

 

 

 

A: "Oh, it's still Opeth. You can definitely hear it's us. I guess it's heavier. It's not as fast as Deliverance, but definitely faster and heavier than Damnation. I think the songs are overall much better. Before I've always had the odd riff where I though ‘I'll fix that later', and there's always

 

been lots of riffs that have been going on for too long or whatever. It's got the beauty and the heaviness and all the things we've had in the past but overall the songs are much more well structured. And obviously we've got Per (Wiberg, keyboardist) joined the band and there's a lot of Uriah Heep from 1971, distorted Hammond organ stuff!"

 

 

 

Q: Full-on July Morning-style shit?!

 

 

 

A: "Yeah, exactly like ‘July Morning'. In fact, there's one song that had the working title ‘Uriah Heep'. We share our rehearsal space with another band and they were listening and they asked us, ‘Which Uriah Heep song is that?' It's Uriah Heep with death metal vocals! I think right now, even though I've been working with this album for so long, I think it's our best. I hope the fans will like it. It's hard to get into, though. There's so much stuff going on!"

 

 

 

Q: Are there any purely mellow tracks?

 

 

 

A: "Yeah, there's one song that could've been on Damnation. I wanted to make the best song of

 

that type that I possibly could and I think I've done that. It's a really good song. There's another song that was meant to be instrumental but then I put some vocals on there anyway. It sounds like a soundtrack, film-style thing. Then there's one that's pure sixties psychedelia. That's the oddest song we've ever done. And then there's five heavy songs, with lots of different things going on and they're all about ten minutes long. It's about seventy minutes in total."

 

 

 

Q: What made you decide to sign with Roadrunner? A lot of people were surprised!

 

 

 

A: "Yeah, we got flamed! But we got offered so many deals. Roadrunner... I don't know, the kids today seem to think it's some kind of nu-metal label because that's all they know, but there's all those guitar albums from the 80s, the King Diamond stuff and many other things. I'm not fond of their roster today, but then I'm not fond of anyone's roster at the moment. We chose Roadrunner because we wanted to make the album available everywhere and I don't want people saying they

 

can't find the album anywhere. I'm sick of that. If people think we signed for the money then that's not the case. It really wasn't a great deal money-wise. If we wanted money we could've chosen plenty of other deals!"

 

 

 

Q: And if you wanted to make money you probably wouldn't play this kind of music, right?

 

 

 

A: "Exactly. Some people think we're going to go mainstream! That's just impossible. The thing is, we met Roadrunner. We traveled around and met up with all the main contenders. When we came to New York we'd just been to Los Angeles and hung out with Robert and Century Media. They treat us so good, and I love the guy, so we were pretty much set to sign with them. But then we met the Roadrunner people and we were floored by how professional they were. I was really impressed.

 

Roadrunner to me is like how Music For Nations was when we signed to them. You just have to think about their history. I don't want anyone not to be able to get hold of the album this time. But we only signed a couple of weeks ago, so there's still lots to prove!"

 

 

 

Q: What are you hopes for the rest of the year?

 

 

 

A: "We're on the Sounds Of The Underground tour in the States this summer. I don't really know what it's going to do for us. I hope a lot of people who've never seen us before will come and see us play. The decision to do that tour has a lot to do with when I became a dad. It's not so cool to be on tour for a long time anymore. I've been away for so long recording the album as it is. But I'm looking forward to these shows. We've been doing this for such a long time. I want to do well. I want people to understand what we're doing. I just hope we have some good fortune."

i još jedan.. neke nove stvari:

 

Terrorizer: Still working on the album?

 

Mikael: "We still have the cover to do and the booklet and photos and all sorts of things."

 

Terrorizer: But the album's almost completed?

 

Mikael: "You could probably say so. We've done the mixes for five heavy, long tracks, but we still have the mixes for three or four extra songs left to do. Everything's recorded. It's just that KATATONIA went into the studio directly after us, so we have to wait like a week or something to do the mixes for those last songs."

 

Terrorizer: Is there perhaps a certain organic quality which has been worked into the songs because of you having rehearsed for this album?

 

Mikael: "Yeah. It'd like to hope so, at least. I worked more with each song and each passage, so I feel the songs 100 per cent. They're much more well-structured this time around."

 

Terrorizer: There was a certain flow that you seemed to lose on some of the songs on "Deliverance". "Damnation" seemed to breathe properly, where "Deliverance" generally didn't.

 

Mikael: "I have to agree, because I think at the time we were recording I was so stressed that it was going to be an album at all; and since we were doing two albums, I think my heart was in the project of doing 'Damnation', because that was the odd thing. While I'm happy with 'Deliverance' overall, I think 'Damnation' is one of our best albums ever. 'Deliverance' is not our strongest album, but I think the song 'Deliverance' is one of our best songs. So I'm not slagging the album off, it's just the memory of the whole recording is so bad, and I know how I was functioning when I was doing those songs. I was under a lot of pressure and I just wanted it to be done. This time around I paid much more attention to the small details and put much more energy into making the songs like, full-on all the time, if you know what I mean. The new album never, ever gets boring. People should never think that OPETH are boring — and we were kind of treading that line on 'Deliverance', I guess."

 

Terrorizer: So are the lyrical themes of this new record moving into new and different territory too?

 

Mikael: "The lyrics are almost a regression, I think. I've gone back to the early influences of the band. I wanted to write like an occult kind of concept story. I didn't want to write a stupid Satanic lyric and it's not a Satanic album or anything, but I started with this idea of a concept, and that was like a red thread, if you know what I mean, throughout the story: that there is some occult undertone in it. The lyrics are almost like a cliché for death metal, but written how I write, so it's not just stupid. It's some good stories, I think. It's much more sinister than before: I haven't written lyrics like this in fifteen years. I hope they're better now than they were fifteen years ago!"

koliko se samo raznih "covera" pojavilo.. ali, neki od ovih ljudi sa opeth foruma su stvarno talentovani.. ovi coveri koje su iz zezanja radili u photoshop-u izgledaju fenomenalno.
