1) Yes, that chord on drapery falls is a cluster, but it does has a name, it's pretty basic chord in fact. A-add9.
2) Who the fuck cares.
3) Mikael knows the difference among minor and major key, some time signatures, etc etc
4) who the fuck cares.
Playing 3 notes with good intonation vibrato and articulation overall is A LOT harder than shred. Everybody can shred, you can see in youtube that. You can also see how everyone fails at doing proper bends and vibrato. I defy Annihilat0r to post a video of him playing any opeth solo and playing...
Ok.
Does anybody knows the fact that lopez never had panic attacks and the reason why the band said so is because he just didn't wanted to play because he was tired of touring?
He is allright, he never had health problems and he is in at least one band.
This thread is the lulz for being so fucking stupid, for having mike's answer on the first post, and for all the rest of the stupid things that some people have said.
