Never been a big fan of growlers, but this guy is incredible. I had never really given Opeth a chance, but this band is incredible. New fan here. Thanks for the reaction.
@@Dway2kill It's hard to say Bloodbath is his second band. It's side project of guys from Katatonia and Mikael sang on two albums only and last one was released in 2008 with him as the vocalist. Now for last three albums Nick from Paradise Lost is the vocalist.
Opeth crew is just as amazing as the band. I give extra props to Magnus who manage the light show. Some is pre programmed but most of it is done manually by him.
I'm in my late 30s and this album came out when I lived in Germany. It was such a huge album when it came out in the metal community. Such a fantastic band and Mikael is one of the best growlers of all time. If you want to check out more of his stuff, check out Bloodbath - Eatan.
So many songs to recommend: Blackwater Park is a must, Closure (Live) from Shepards Bush, Deliverance, Hex Omega, Harlequin Forest, Masters Apprentice, When, Drapery Falls. Get busy!
the higher octave on the "slow" part is actually the vocal doing it. Him and the keyboard player start doing the same note, and when they change it up, it's the singer that's doing the higher note.
The thing about it for me too is that Akerfeldt’s growl is even way better on the recording. It was always my favourite thing about their metal, it’s so compelling it’s insane.
Man.. I don't like "death metal" or "growl rock" but when you hear this guy live... *purrr* I just saw them in Tallinn (14.09.2022) when they started theyr latest tour. Man ... Small club (for Opeth)... Such .. such great concert. xD I'm pretty sure that the "Best Channel In The Universe" has the entire concert in TH-cams...
There is no raised 7th in that vocal run. It is all natural minor. In the next phrase, the vocals outline A7 altered chord (A-G-C#-F), which is part of D melodic minor. Which has the raised 7th but also a raised 6th. IE, this is not phrygian, its melodic minor. The phrygian mode has a minor 6th.
Up top her being like "shut up nerds" so funny. Especially when they only talked about the nerdiest trash video games possible. Call Of Duty and Fortnight. You want to talk about good video games I'm in.
Could you check out Ghost live from the Mausoleum? In particular, I would like you to react to their performance of Kaiserion and Spillways. There are tons of other live videos and songs by them I could also recommend.
From my impressions, dude on the right hates that there are more talented musicians out there in the world…dude on the left wants to be part of the talented musicians…choose wisely!
There are 2 types of people in the world,
OPETH fans, & those who have yet to hear OPETH.
underrated comment sir

Was never a fan of growls until I heard Mikael's. Pity they've moved away from it as none else comes close
And this is why copyright striking reaction videos is stupid.
@@Powick01 Mikael has another band called Bloodbath if you enjoy that type of music
@@Dway2kill It's hard to say Bloodbath is his second band. It's side project of guys from Katatonia and Mikael sang on two albums only and last one was released in 2008 with him as the vocalist. Now for last three albums Nick from Paradise Lost is the vocalist.
@@Dway2killHe hasn't really. But he has been with them back and forth. Current vocalist is Nick Holmes (from Paradise Lost) since some years back.
If you guys haven't listened to any more Opeth since this, you have a duty
Opeth is simply on another level of musicianship composition and are completely in tuned with their emotions..their art is simply superb..
Opeth crew is just as amazing as the band. I give extra props to Magnus who manage the light show. Some is pre programmed but most of it is done manually by him.
Watching people process this song in real time is fun.

Wasn´t aware you had made this! Great! Glad Aaron was around this time, Axe is a beastly drummer.
At first you were like a group of misbehaved kids just fooling around until you listened the first growling and you were like "o_o". I loved it!
I've never been an Opeth fan, but that breakdown part in this song is just amazing!
Left: “Oh my god it’s so deep.”
Right: Looks to the camera.
That had me cracking up.
BTW, the keyboard players name is Joakim Svalberg. Uses a lot of old gear like mellotron with Opeth.
So many songs to recommend: Blackwater Park is a must, Closure (Live) from Shepards Bush, Deliverance, Hex Omega, Harlequin Forest, Masters Apprentice, When, Drapery Falls.
Get busy!
Heir Apparent, Black Rose Immortal?
Haha “omg it’s so deep..” 😂 well now
Great reaction! Enjoyed the analytical comments.
i wish i can hear this masterpiece for the first time again 😂 feeling of 5 extreme good songs in one
the higher octave on the "slow" part is actually the vocal doing it. Him and the keyboard player start doing the same note, and when they change it up, it's the singer that's doing the higher note.
Absolutely a MUST SEE band.Seen them live twice now,both times were incredible.Do yourselves a favour, you'll see what I mean.👍
I like how the dude on the right is just locked in, studying and analyzing.
"I'm braindead and have no thoughts let's just guess timings"
Sweden delivers again!
The thing about it for me too is that Akerfeldt’s growl is even way better on the recording.

Opeth are Scandinavian Viking Gods!
Gods yes, vikings.... dunno 😁
Masterpiece 🥰🤘
welcome to the next level music
Respect.
🔥🔥❤Opeth❤🔥🔥
More please!
We want more! We want more!....
😁
@@progperljungman8218 For sure,
more more!
You guys should check out The Drapery Falls at Shepherd's Bush. Mikael at his prime.
Man.. I don't like "death metal" or "growl rock" but when you hear this guy live... *purrr*
I just saw them in Tallinn (14.09.2022) when they started theyr latest tour. Man ...

VEKTOR RECHARGING THE VOID you won't regret it
World class song🇸🇪
Homegirl lookin like "kill me now" for the first minute or so 🤣🤣
Check out more Opeth! And also Animals as Leaders
I see your delighted expressions here, you appreciate Opeth, you appreciate music. And I don't see your new reactions anymore, why is this happening?
There is no raised 7th in that vocal run. It is all natural minor.

Nice, you definitely need to do old school Opeth though, like ‘Deliverance’ ‘Master’s apprentice’ and what not, that era, blows away the newer stuff
Yes to Deliverance.
I mean, ICV is a very polished sound, but old school Opeth will always be special
Well... Deliverance (2002) isn't much older than Ghost of Perdition (off of Ghost Reveries from 2005)
Nice reaction...Opeth is god..and the devil simultaeously
Do Blackwater park next.
You kids think every song has backing tracks. Such lazy thinking!!! This is Opeth!!!!
Up top her being like "shut up nerds" so funny. Especially when they only talked about the nerdiest trash video games possible. Call Of Duty and Fortnight. You want to talk about good video games I'm in.
Nice! Pls react Saphath - Outcast of Eden

Keep be creative,
From my impressions, dude on the right hates that there are more talented musicians out there in the world…dude on the left wants to be part of the talented musicians…choose wisely!
i was expecting a surprising reaction content to such an epic song. yet could not stand one minute of all this clown hosting, outta here...
Also talking about video games with In ear monitors is cringe.
Is your bass player out parking the car or what? I swear, never any respect for da bass. 🤷♂️
