Yeah FaceCulture are good at what they do. Also I notice people like Mikael and Steven Wilson feel comfortable with them and seem to enjoy being interviewed by them. Which isn't always the case if you watch other interviews, they seem a bit like ''oh well I have to be here'' lol
They're good interviewers who feel personal rather than asking stupid, redundant questions that indicate they've never watched a single one of their interviews, i.e. "but y no growls tho".
Really interesting, I love hearing Mikael talk about his creative process, he's very bashful and self-critical in a genuine way, and the general impression I get from all his interviews is that he still considers himself to be learning rather than acting like the maestro
I wonder if he'd give the same answers about how difficult it is to tour for ages if he wasn't at the end of the tour :) This is a tired man speaking. Made me think of the song The Killing Road by Megadeth about touring.

Exacly. Wish they would do two interviews per year because they tend to do only 1 if I'm correct. With Mikael approval ofc.
I've noticed this as well. FaceCulture is pretty lucky to be able to get this level of honesty but then again they do tend to be better interviewers.

One of the best songwriters of our generation. This man emanates excellence.

Great interview!

He the definition of an artist. His thought process and how he creates.
When you are so good that you get goosebumps listening to your own music LOL

Opeth is one of those bands that i find very hard to duplicate.
