If you notice right before the end, he looks like he's huffing and puffing and saying to himself "how long is this damned song anyways?". Still keeps right on the beat though. Props.
The technical incident with the guitar was metal as fuck to be honest. Mikael just growls like a demon like if nothing happened, it's quickly fixed, and the comeback of the guitar is badass (4:57). It's part of the song for me now.
@@Barqu3ntine am urging you to watching the lotus eater in the same event to check out seamless problem fixation (listen to the song without watch then see it again)! They are soooo god damn professionals
Is it true that that this song was inspired by an incident where Mikeal Alkerfieldt split his glass of milk, which made him become outraged that he had nothing to dunk his cookies in, he started writing this song?
This is possibly Opeth’s best concert in my opinion. His growls were consistently strong, and his clean vocals were chiming. The vocals towards the end give me goosebumps nearly every time
Roundhouse and Lamentations are so much better. I dont get why people think he is good here?! Everything is off and its clearly leading into his "I dont care about gutturals phase". Its not terrible here, but its not good either.
I cant believe that mikael could go through this whole concert. The entire BWP plus their most brutal songs ever like wreath the moor. the hardest marathon he had done probably
Awesome setlist, Dirge for November, Forest of October, The Moor, and Wreath, have been songs i always wanted on a good video with great quality. Really my favorites. i just hate the way they jump 100000 times the camera images. not even 5 seconds in a row, whish we could´ve watched some solos.
Lopez was extremely hit and miss -- he was far less technical than Axe. When Lopez hit his groove he was hard to beat I agree but he also has a super hard time keeping tempo and some of his live double bass work on the earlier stuff like white cluster and god head lament is fucking awful.
Couldn’t agree more. Axe is a better musician than Lopez in every way. The Lopez lovers must not be drummers or have any musical training to disagree with that.
Falling inside again This nightmare always the same Still never enough Halting at the brink of discovery Moving into the darkness Leaking inside to cover up Dragging me down and under Entangled and undone at once Old memories I'm not in need but wish to know What are the tragedies The history behind the walls Pacing further down Familiar children's laughter Dissonant and out of time And their eyes are dead Watching myself in a pool of water Wearing the mask of a ghost Smeared all across my skin Rotten earth and insects Endless night Always preserving the calm Movement behind Bleeding animals in a field of fire There is no absolution Death is but a fairytale They are mere visions They are afraid of me Clear insight A smoke is rising nearby Dust covering my coat Blend together to spell my name Pale, covered me with sweat There are no words left Sole provider of death Distorted faith in myself Human harvest burning Blackest pages turning Twisted perception come true Captured in dreams connected Staring right back Spiritual decay - Still seeking Frozen in time Mourn this departure - All watching Calling me back Closure to bleak matters - I'm leaving End of a search Coming of morning Calling me back Closure to bleak matters - I'm leaving End of a search Coming of morning - Returning
This song is a goddamn masterpiece Edit: I love how much fun Mikael ostensibly has just rocking the fuck out. The part at 1:53 is one of my top five Opeth riffs of all time and he looks so happy playing it
Except for Mikael's problem with the guitar and except for the blast beat at the end I would think they used the album version as playback. INCREDIBLY done!
Axe can play anything off Deliverance to a tee! He's no Lopez, who (for me) symbolises the zenith of creativity and technicality in a drummer, but he [Axe] is a superb death metal drummer in his own right ... And his drumming on 'Harvest' from the same Albert Hall concert is a jazzy sensation, to say the least! \m/
Magnífico, personificación de la desolación, desarrollos de los requintos de guitarra tan evolutivos, ambiente sublime y oscuro, this song is cold, cool and called Wreath from Deliverance!
They definitely need to play this more often. For the love I bear Deliverance the 4 other tracks on the album are gold as well. Axe is such a fucking beast live (studio as well) on all of their catalogue and he wasn't in the band on the 8 albums pretty much everyone considers the best. He's definitely not having any live struggles like I feel Lopez had on the 4 heavy songs on Lamentations.
I think studiowise the classic lineup (Mikael, Peter, Martin and Martin (& Per)) hit their musical peak with Deliverance/Damnation. I'd say Blackwater park is still the best of their 6 records though, but I think musically D&D are just a notch above the rest, if not in songwriting. The new Opeth (Mikael, Martin, Axe, Fredrik and Joakim (& Per)) hit that point in their lineup with In cauda venenum, both musically and songwriting wise. Of course it's not as mindblowing as what they used to do up to 10 years ago, because what they're doing now kinda existed in the 70s already and what they did in the first 15 years was never seen before. I'd go as far as saying that if they did some good old prog death record it might be nearly as good as Blackwater park or Deliverance. But that is a question for the future and right now I'd love it very much if they just went further into the ICV direction, just more of what makes it special. Talking live I thinke there is not much to discuss. Perfect. I think Axe is way more stable on the heavy stuff than Martin was.
Moustafa Elgebaly Nope. It died. If it wasn't the case, why Mikael would change the guitar? Even John Petrucci has experienced that (a dead guitar in the middle of a song, Under A Glass Moon at Score. He just changed the guitar and dubbed the missing parts in studio).

TheAskald Dimebag is the exception that confirms the rule. And if you won't have a second guitarist, make sure that, or you're a fucking guitar God, or that you have an ungodly awesome keyboardist...
I think Lopez was more of a metal drummer, and a highly creative one, but as far as my taste for drumming goes Axenrot is the superior one. He has evolved a lot lately, can pull of mindblowing jazz styled beats and is overall more interesting to hear than Lopez. just check out Pale Communion if you doubt me, absolutely divine drumming
![ละลาย (LALALYE) - DAOU PITTAYA ต้าห์อู๋ พิทยา [OFFICIAL MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/wo6r9TgausI/mqdefault.jpg)
I can't imagine having the energy to do blast beats at the end of this 11-minute song, Axenrot is a machine.
The real machine is Martin López
Yonaiker Galan Lopez no
If you notice right before the end, he looks like he's huffing and puffing and saying to himself "how long is this damned song anyways?". Still keeps right on the beat though. Props.
@@yonaikergalanlopez6991 Lopez is a Groover 😉
@@fernandapereira4623 i think he is both, i like much his drumming style, you not?

And not to mention that pause reveals badass bass of Mendez!
Super professional!
@@Barqu3ntine am urging you to watching the lotus eater in the same event to check out seamless problem fixation (listen to the song without watch then see it again)!
They are soooo god damn professionals
wow that guitar change was professional as fuck
There should be a blast beat here. Yes man, it should.
totally agree!:)
but maybe they made it without it,on purpose
Whoa...blast beat in the end. Very nice addition. Axenrot is an amazing drummer.
10:56 BLAST BEEEEAT
God,this band is so original.. I missed old Opeth songs.
That guitar switch was so fucking smooth. Imagine pulling off an incident like that, so well that it almost enhances the performance. Impressive :>
Is it true that that this song was inspired by an incident where Mikeal Alkerfieldt split his glass of milk, which made him become outraged that he had nothing to dunk his cookies in, he started writing this song?
Can You Provide Me Any Link Where You Read this? Seems Interesting Tho :D

This is possibly Opeth’s best concert in my opinion. His growls were consistently strong, and his clean vocals were chiming. The vocals towards the end give me goosebumps nearly every time
His growls were a lot better on Roundhouse Tapes, but his cleans weren't as good as on here
His cleans have only gotten better with age. This era of his growls were not good in my opinion. He has even addressed this fact.
Under the weeping moon on roundhouse is amazing.
Roundhouse and Lamentations are so much better. I dont get why people think he is good here?! Everything is off and its clearly leading into his "I dont care about gutturals phase". Its not terrible here, but its not good either.
Like he is straining so hard at times, just trying to keep the growl locked in. His highs are ok, but that is much easier to do
Wow. This song is EPIC. Great parts followed by great parts followed by great parts followed by great parts.
I cant believe that mikael could go through this whole concert. The entire BWP plus their most brutal songs ever like wreath the moor. the hardest marathon he had done probably
Axe rocked in Roundhouse and RAH. I like him probably almost as much as I like Lopez.
both are great in their own ways
Awesome setlist, Dirge for November, Forest of October, The Moor, and Wreath, have been songs i always wanted on a good video with great quality. Really my favorites. i just hate the way they jump 100000 times the camera images. not even 5 seconds in a row, whish we could´ve watched some solos.
perfection. Brutifull, really no other words to explain this phenomenal performance... They are some lucky motherfuckers to be in there for that...
Love the addition of the blast beat.
*Axnrot at the end with blastbeat* ""oh wait... This is Opeth no Bloodbath.... 😅👌""
Those octave melodies haunt my dreams...
I fucking LOVE the blast at the end of this. Axe is a goddamned beast. Lopez was great, but Axe is next level, and he's so consistent.
Careful... Lopez was borderline unique.
Axe plays everything slower and that truly sucks. He also can't replicate all the drum details of those songs.
Lopez was extremely hit and miss -- he was far less technical than Axe. When Lopez hit his groove he was hard to beat I agree but he also has a super hard time keeping tempo and some of his live double bass work on the earlier stuff like white cluster and god head lament is fucking awful.

Falling inside again
This nightmare always the same
Still never enough
Halting at the brink of discovery
Moving into the darkness
Leaking inside to cover up
Dragging me down and under
Entangled and undone at once
Old memories
I'm not in need but wish to know
What are the tragedies
The history behind the walls
Pacing further down
Familiar children's laughter
Dissonant and out of time
And their eyes are dead
Watching myself in a pool of water
Wearing the mask of a ghost
Smeared all across my skin
Rotten earth and insects
Endless night
Always preserving the calm
Movement behind
Bleeding animals in a field of fire
There is no absolution
Death is but a fairytale
They are mere visions
They are afraid of me
Clear insight
A smoke is rising nearby
Dust covering my coat
Blend together to spell my name
Pale, covered me with sweat
There are no words left
Sole provider of death
Distorted faith in myself
Human harvest burning
Blackest pages turning
Twisted perception come true
Captured in dreams connected
Staring right back
Spiritual decay - Still seeking
Frozen in time
Mourn this departure - All watching
Calling me back
Closure to bleak matters - I'm leaving
End of a search
Coming of morning
Calling me back
Closure to bleak matters - I'm leaving
End of a search
Coming of morning - Returning
This song is a goddamn masterpiece
Edit: I love how much fun Mikael ostensibly has just rocking the fuck out. The part at 1:53 is one of my top five Opeth riffs of all time and he looks so happy playing it
As a proggie, i skip to 4 minutes and enjoy.
Blast beats were such a good touch at the end
The Court Of The Crimson King
Except for Mikael's problem with the guitar and except for the blast beat at the end I would think they used the album version as playback.
INCREDIBLY done!
9:53 Love this part!

4:44 OMG that growl
Haha love it how he just keeps singing while he changes guitar.
I've always been in love with the part that starts at 1:52 .
Such a great live show, perfect live band!
i just watched this whole video while brushing my teeth. my doctor will be impressed if i go this way.
Headbanging is not allowed?
9:35
I think if I were at this epic performance I also would just stand there and sobber
I remember when they played Wreath on the Prog Nation tour in 08 at Gibson Amphitheater in LA...just amazing. No other way to describe Opeth live.
The solo starting at 5:12 just kills me
8:00 is much better for me
@@matteopriotto5131 Right, 8:00 is one of the most badass things i've ever heard in my life.
Yes. There is a cry of pain in it.
@@matteopriotto51318:00 is just feels like accomplishment 🎉
OH MY GODDD this sounds AMAZING LIVE
I've always loved the solo at 8:00, but now that I know it was played by Mikael I love it even more!
Best opeth song ever. Period
i was there one of the best gigs of my musical life
All hail the power of Wreath!
I'm a Lopez guy myself, but damn, does Axe really fucking nail this one.
a true masterpiece
that's how it's done, right there! amazing
Magnífico, personificación de la desolación, desarrollos de los requintos de guitarra tan evolutivos, ambiente sublime y oscuro, this song is cold, cool and called Wreath from Deliverance!
i didn't knew
his clean vocals got even better....
u must buy this DVD... quality is just awesome
Next time, I hope we will have possibility to have it in Blu Ray. ; )

This REALLY... REALLY makes me question their decision to have literally NO blast beats on studio except for Lotus Eater.

4:30 guitar died
Not dead... but it's tuned in a different way to perform more rough riffs... you can hear it clearly using a headphone.
Moustafa Elgebaly Nope. It died. If it wasn't the case, why Mikael would change the guitar? Even John Petrucci has experienced that (a dead guitar in the middle of a song, Under A Glass Moon at Score. He just changed the guitar and dubbed the missing parts in studio). Mikael's guitar died, and luckily Akesson kept playing.
It didn't die, he muted the strings. I'm assuming he broke a string or it shifted too much out of tune
lol the comments. He just broke a string
@@gebaly91 get a load of this guy
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
4:30 and kids that's why you always need to have 2 guitarists to form a decent metal band :p
Yeah, Pantera wasn't a decent metal band, I forgot about that thx.
TheAskald .... there are always exceptions to every rule.
Dimebag was 3 guitarists in 1.
TheAskald Dimebag is the exception that confirms the rule. And if you won't have a second guitarist, make sure that, or you're a fucking guitar God, or that you have an ungodly awesome keyboardist...

@kaChalloner Also probably a string though
Dig the part at around 7:25 and then at disturbed part at 7:38 -

Mikael's growls just aren't what they used to be. It's truly sad. 😢
They usually play live a little faster than usually...I love this performance but it is way too slow compared to the original track.

He has evolved a lot lately, can pull of mindblowing jazz styled beats and is overall more interesting to hear than Lopez. just check out Pale Communion if you doubt me, absolutely divine drumming
Lopez could bear the jazz drumming if you ask me. As he already did in Deliverance's live performance
This song could kill a drummer ?
he really cant growl anymore it sucks
I hate the intro and the outro. Kills the darkness of the song.
