Opeth is terrible death metal. It's not heavy at all.
Yeah, it's not 'deep' either. I really don't get the appeal.
>>129779582Them and Amon Amarth are both really boring. It's weird how such mid metal bands are the most popular. It's seemingly totally random
>>129779635Opeth is for metalheads too stubbornly wedded to the color black to just check out Camel or something.
theater kid metal
>>129779674weird I'm listening to Camel right now
Opeth and BtbaM are two notable 'intelligent mallcore' bands that win teenage devotees by switching between heavy parts and easy listening. This is somehow considered profound even though Metallica already did it.
>>129779582What's funny is Mikael probably wouldn't give you too much shit for that. Dude's a purist, I don't think he's listened to a death metal album that came out after 1994 or some shit like that.
>>129779593yeah when I hear an awesome riff I immediately think about how deep it is
>>129780763nobody thinks any of this shit is profound it just sounds good if you like it gosh you're gay
/mu/ doesn't like anything where they can imagine a guy thinking they are smart for liking that thing, which ruins the thing itself for themthere's an inferiority complex on a societal scale happening to cope with us becoming dumber so we've thrown the baby out with the bathwater and abandoned ambition and effort entirely
I like Opeth. It's the riffs and the death growls for me.
Progressive death/doom metal with folk and various pussy shit. Tonal whiplash allover the place. Opeth should've stuck with the brutal parts of Deliverance and left out the faggoty soft interludes that are easily digestable for baby's tummy.At least they aren't another shitty trap act.
>>129781366Then explain why I like classical music.
>>129781569because you're an outsider
>>129781577What?
>>129781581ergo you are a gaylord
>>129779635>Amon Amarth>really boringWhat are you talking about? They're fun as hell.
>>129779582Because they are prog metal not death metal
>>129781560I love how clean vocals or acoustic parts still filter pure metal fags who think anything less heavy than Cannibal Corpse is soft shit for pussies
>>129782200Metal is hard, not sing you a lullaby faggotry. Take your little girl clit out of your cunt filled with nigger cum.
>>129782200The problem is not the existence of clean vocals and acoustic parts, it's the execution.
>>129782219It sounds like pigs and goats being raped/disemboweled while a perverted pedophile tucks his victims in to bed
>>129782214Kek most intelligent Cannibal Corpse fan >>129782219What's wrong with the execution? Which band does it better?
>>129782228That's saying something coming from a Sabatard
>>129782214>nooo you can't have melody or clean vocals in extreme metal because you just can't okay
>>129781560>Opeth >death/doom
>>129782241>projecting this hard
>>129779582Opeth got me into death metal so I can't hate on them
>>129782228Agalloch isn't death but they do it better
>>129782259Agalloch is a stupid black/doom band from that shithole Oregon. John is an anti-Christian douchebag and the band should've stayed disbanded.
>>129782289Mad they have better melodies than Opeth?
>>129782259Agalloch are pretty good but they are not prog
>>129782296And? All you asked was who did clean vocals and acoustic sections better.Also "prog metal" is a stupid category to begin with.
>>129782292They have better melodies that a down syndrome kid with his first geetar maybe
>>129782307Jesus why do you hate Agalloch so much lmao
>>129779582I don't like death metal but I love Opeth.I guess Opeth is great and death metal is shit
>>129782313I hate everything, I hate myself, and I hate you argg
>>129782335Death metal was originally laughed at and basically deserved it. What utter shyte.
>>129782345I've yet to hear a solo better than Fermented Offal Discharge
>>129782335I don't like black metal but I like Enslaved
>>129782361Look up Torsofuck and wish to fuck you never did
>>129782381I don't care for the gore schtick I just like the music.
>>129779582>It's not heavy at all.Maybe you think that because they don't tune their guitars all that low?
>>129782390No I think it's the composition and production
>>129782335Based :)
>>129782372I also agree with this statement
>>129780763the problem with those fanbases is that they almost never listen to anything outside rock/metal, so when btbam plays an incredibly tacky and cliche section of flamingo/jazz/country or whatever, it's mind-blowing to metalfags that know nothing about those genres. this is a problem with so-called "progressive" music in general
>>129779582Opeth aren't death metal. They're progressive metal with occasional death growls.
Opeth is my favorite band of all time.Sure, their later albums aren’t as good as the earlier ones, but they evolved as musicians and you gotta respect that.Lindgren and Lopez era is really really good.But of course we hate everything here so disregard that.This forum is legitimately awful. We have 10 kpop generals and the rest is about some drama or much something sucks.
