Calling all Opeth homos

Some dude on the Opeth forum posted a bootleg video of Opeth's new song Heir Apparent, and apparently (according to my ears after filtering out the recording which is balls btw), it's pretty fucking good. *drooooooooool* June can't come fast enough I tell ya.

I just listened to this song and it reminded me all over again of why I can't stand this band. Absolutely terrible songwriting.

I never understood the beauty of Opeth. I don't hate them, I just don't get it.

There were a couple songs on My Arms, Your Hearse that actually showed some interesting narrative song structure (I'm referring to "April Ethereal" and "Karma"). The majority of their other songs are just "cut-n-paste" though--- an acoustic section here, then the heavy part, then a bit with piano, then another acoustic section, etc....

I never understood the whole "they are so predictable" argument. I'm pretty sure every band in existence has used a guitar, or drums, or vocals, or keys, or something in their songs to you know, create a song. It's a reall weak, and moot point to claim that a band is "predictable" because all bands are predictable. The only way your argument would make sense is if every heavy part, every piano/key part, every acoustic section sounded identical; which they don't.
