    I know it's not a real word, but what if it was?

    If enough people used it, it could easily end up in a dictionairy. Sounds dumb? LOL will be in there soon enough. So here is a random definition:
    • Opeth: A place that's forever autmn.
    • Opethian: Someone who lives there.
    or
    • Opeth: Hair from your head that ends up in your ass crack.

    Ooh, we had a thread awhile back where someone (not from this forum) pointed out racist implications in the book that the word Opeth came from. Can't remember the name of the book.

    It was a book written by some South-African. I remember it was about some 'aryan' civilazation that was ruined by the black people (ala atlantis). Never read it tough.

    And fuck, I'm ashamed that the S-A people of the Apartheids regime were descendants of the Dutch people.. aparently, 'Apartheid' is the only Dutch word thats know in other langages. I feel sorry for the black people that were opressed. I don't feel sorry for Lopez tough, he's a dirty rotten Mexican :err:

    When I read the title I was more thniking "Definition of the band's music".

    That would be:

    "Opethtastic!"

    Hey dude, I'm definitely being serious and I'm in no way kidding around. In fact, I'd like to engage you in a scholarly debate over the effect of European settlers on the indigenous American people.

    I'd agree with Silent Song regarding the explorers. Sanzen, exactly what do you think they did that the indigenous American people actually benefited from?

    I'd say Opeth = Juxtaposition

    ie: dark/purdy, growly/melodic, heavy/light, etc.

    yeah i saw SW last night, but i don't think it was incredible.
    i think after another viewing and less retarded teens near me, i might like it better. i definetly think it was good, but not GREAT. i often find that when i get very worked up and excited for a film, it disappoints a bit, because i was so hyped.
    clearly the last 40 minutes ruled though.

    my defenition of opeth...


    Opeth: Band consisting of wishy washy members who will easily change style or motives due to money or signing to a new record label. Lacking completely in musical integrity, forgoing it for financial security and desire. Absolutely disrespectful and disliking of their fans and of making quality music to their liking. Claim to be progressive but really just rip off better and superior progressive metal bands like woods of ypres and agalloch. id give them a 2 out of 5 because of their best album "deliverance", i found the others quite boring.
























    :D
