Maybe I'm just getting old, but I have to say. After being a long time member of this board, these days, I'm finding this board has really gone to shit. Man, it seems like since new management took over, noone who has anything interesting to say actually posts here any more. I bet you could...

Right. Looks like their on sale for Luna Park in sydney. Here's the link:- http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=LUNA_PARK_SYDNEY&organ_val=22026&event_val=OPTH&schedule=list

Surely getting married and having a child is going to change your perspective on life. Given how much Mikael writes from the heart and his tendency to buck the expected trend, do you think he'll concetrate on writing about dark themes like they've tended too in the past? I forsee a more airy...

For me, it's all the usual ones Mikael mentions such as Katatonia, Porcupine Tree, and occasionaly Camel.

Right, that ridiculous corpse paint thread got me thinking. Not that any of us care about a bands image blah blah blah...name any good bands that portray some kind of fucked up image on stage or on album covers etc. I'm curious. I can think of two. Tism - tracksuits and black burgler...

Can anyone who has managed to pick up a copy of the DVD in sydney please post the details here. The tardy mofo's at Utopia said it was going to be in today, but it's not to be.

I got the distinct feeling that some of the imagery and cinemetography in this film go's hand in hand with some of the imagery that Opeth paint with their music. The surreal, vista views and bleakness from the film got me thinking alot about Damnation, Deliverance and MAYH. The subject matter...

Right Schism, you've prompted me to start this thread. Who's found hidden art hehind their CD trays? Any off the wall or memorable stuff? (Hopefully this will save me the effort of going through all my CDs individually searching for this shit.)

I know this is still 1% unconfirmed. But what will be the go with signings at the Utopia in-store, if it happens? Will they only sign shit that you purchase on the day? I want them to sign my Damnation CD once I get it...but I don't want to have to wait till the 13th of April (being the day...

Go get them if you haven't already. http://www.katatonia.com I'm pretty impressed actually. More emotional music pouring out of black hearts. Love it...

I don't want to dampen everyone parade...but I seriously hope Opeth don't go overboad with any pyrotechnics shit... Some pyrotechnics during a metal bands concert at a Rhode Island nightclub ignited the whole place, and their still pulling bodies out. Its a fucked up situation...and all...

[begin gush: Post it again Yayo for all the folk here who haven't heard it. I find myself listening to this mesmerising piece of art at least once a day. Thanks for giving us such a wonderful piece of music. ...end gush]

I think so. I've played Opeth to many people, who just can't understand it? Or they won't let themselves understand it. But other people absolutely fall in love with it..either straight away or in time. Do you have to be in a particular frame of mind? Do all Opeth fans share some mental...

Right, this is a question all you aussie fans should of asked yourselves. What are the chances of this? Is the new album coinciding with their aussie tour? I for one, hope they play one or two songs. In fact, ideally, they'd play songs from all their albums + damnation...but maybe I'm...

It must suck for PL having to open for Opeth. Considering their an older band with a bigger discography ( I think). I think Opeth may of even mentioned that PL where an influence at some stage or another. Oh well... I think Kiss opening for Opeth would be justified... oh...I can...

I'm curiuous whether all the various bootleg audio and video recordings distributed on the internet cost Opeth, and any other bands for that matter, financially.

some of the other 'music genre' posts got me thinking about drugs and music, and how the two combine. We all know that most of the best music out there was written by folks who where high on something or the other. But what about music which requires you to be high to truly appreciate it...

I think it depends on ones existing taste in metal, or music for that matter. I was into thrash and death stuff like early sepultura and morbid angel, when I first heard Orchid...and it hooked me completely. But some new fans don't like their old stuff, preferring SL or BWP. Deliverance...

Sorry to give all you aussies premature wood, please feel free to post confirmed dates here :- :D ;)
