Once steven wilson and mikael akerfeldt started collaborating together, opeth slowly moved towards softer stuff (progressive rock) while porcupine tree started to become heavier (started having a more metal sound). Both had a big influence on each other i think, or at least it seems that way haha.
mike c yeah I'm aware and do enjoy soen. Dont get me wrong I have no problem with axe axernot the new opeth drummer, but there was just something special about the Lopez opeth era Era
don't know if you're familiar with Damnation album from Opeth, but basically every song from it is worth checking out :D I'm not gonna lie, it's my favourite album, not only considering their discography, but in general, I can listen it anytime, anyday :D I don't hate their mixing death metal with progressive rock, but after all I like consistency of Damnation, where they focus on progressive music only with great success imho, and Windowpane song from this album, was the first song I've heard from them, and made me checking their whole discography (also the fact Steven Wilson was producing this album with them, just speaks for itself, how good it just had to be) songs like "Windowpane", "Hope Leaves" or "In My Time Of Need" are just true beauties :D
Jehes! Next one could be a song called Bleak from their album called Blackwater Park, which was produced by a gentleman called Steven Wilson. He also appears on the track!
So glad opeth is growing on you. try a fair judgment its the next song on the album and totally different feel. I highly suggest listening to the albums as a whole.
h3xOmega can you think of any back to back track on an album that compares to deliverance and a fair judgment. Maybe parabol parabola/ticks and leeches on tools lataralus
Also, this album came out at almost the same time as their album Damnation which has no growls at all and not metal, but one of my absolute fave Opeth albums
I love the instrumentation and clean vocals, but the demonic growls seem OTT for me, and I like bands like Lamb of God, Gojira, Messuggah, etc. I will give this one a listen!
I ike the part after face down beneath the waterline the sound of the distortion and the riff give me chills......cant believe this is the same band that recorded Heritage
If you want the "other side" of Opeth, try Nepenthe, Harvest, Eternal Rains Will Come, or *definitely* something from Damnation, i.e. Windowpane. If you want to try an "older song" I think is highly underrated, try When (either live or studio). Or "Ghost of Perdition". See the problem is their music is so different and all so amazing. I'm just going to stop now.
That outro is songwriting 101 on how to use one chord to death and it still be amazing. Also no surprises on the production being stellar when you've Steven Wilson producing.
This was the first Opeth song I ever heard. I still remember hearing that outro for the first time, incredible. Lopez' drumming throughout is crazy good (to be honest, he's amazing in all their songs, probably my favourite drummer ever), and no disrespect to Axe either. Wasn't sure at first, but you know, he's crazy good too :p Also have to say I think Opeth have always been my favourite band in terms of riffs and solo's. They really do create some of the coolest and chunkiest sounding guitar parts in the metal world if you ask me. The cleanly sung parts in this are also heavenly. I kind of wish Mikael had stuck to that, but kept the heavy riffs. If you are a big prog fan though, you'd probably love their later stuff, it's super proggy, try; "Eternal Rains Will Come" if you get the time.
I think Axe is technically a more proficient drummer. But Martin's style and ear for playing the right beat for a given section is up there with the world's best drummers
Probably my favorite piece of music Opeth has done. All around excellent from beginning to end and insanely fun to play with guitar too. Like everyone says, LOVE the ending.
Opeth are musical gods.They can play multiple styles of music usually all on the same song.To the uninitiated, I could play 2 different songs from them, & they would not realize it's the same band. Their musical prowess is rivaled by only the finest musicians out there living or dead.
By the end of this song I’m on a journey through my mind experiencing apocalyptic visions, with the sky opening up above a desert and the ground bursting open with ancient gods and their armies doing battle at the end of time
What's better than listening to this masterpiece? Watch them play it live. So I did 3 times ... and the break in the middle is one of the best in music history:-)
@@JimNewstead Have you ever seen them live ? What I also was going to tell you, that at one point, I think it was in the Jinjer video you smiled into the camera in a way, that reminded me of the making of Damnation DVD of Opeth, where at one point Mikael looks out of the vocal booth with a similar smile to get Steven Wilson ok for that part🙂
your reactions to more extreme metal are great. it reminds me of me showing my dad who i used to get to listen to deaht/black metal and he'd act just as genuine as you. wish me and him coulda got to a gig together. great videos already a fan.
This song is bloody brilliant. I would really appreciate if you did more songs straight from their records. Their production is great (especially after Deliverance and forward). So a tip is maybe Masters' Apprentices from this record, Closure (Damnation) if you want a jazzy alt pop song, Reverie/Harlequin Forest (Ghost Reveries), or MAYBE just maybe The Devil's Orchard (Heritage) which is a great prog rock song (at this point Mikael stopped doing growling vocals).
One progressive piece I think you’d really enjoy is from a band called Uneven Structure. The album Februus. The songs are basically One continuous song split up into 10 songs. The last two Plenitude and Finale would blow you away. One has to finish and the other start with no gaps to get the full experience when Finale kicks in.
It was so nice looking someone listening for the first time to my two favorite bands (Tool and Opeth). Your reaction to the grudge by Tool was... Speechless ? :D Even though i would put Tool as my favorite, i make my comment on Opeth vid since it seems it needs more love ;) Some suggestions for those bands, even if it's hard to choose : Tool : Parabol + Parabola (Lateralus) 46 & 2 (Aenima) Opeth (no growls) : To bid you farewell (Morningrise) Hope Leaves (Damnation - This album has no growls (like latests albums) and no distortions (unique in their discography), and it's a really good one) Opeth (with growls) : Master's Apprentice (Deliverance) Bleak (blackwater park) Black Rose Immortal (Morningrise - if you can handle the ~25 minutes) I also see a lot of good songs in other people comments too ! Just pick any of them ;) Keep the good work, and sorry for the wall of text ! PS : Even if this could be true for Opeth aswell, you should really take the time to listen to the full Tool albums once you've done your reaction videos (Lateralus is my favorite, but it's just personnal taste). It's really something that you should try if you like the band, it's another experience from listening "randomly" to the songs.
Deliverance is definetly a masterpiece!, that ending always gives me goosebumps :) I Highly recommend checking out Slugdge - Putrid Fairytale, their latest album ''Esoteric Malacolgy'' (2018) might be in my personal metal top 5 albums of the year, they are a 2-man band from the UK (after the release of this album they were joined by bassist Moat Lowe (No Sin Evades His Gaze) and drummer Alan Cassidy (The Black Dahlia Murder), this song features high energy, awesome guitar riffs/solo's, pretty brutal growling vocals with now and then a bit of clean. Their lyrics are based around some sort of fantasy malacology universe (Slugs, Slime, Squids etc...), i hope all this will convince you to do a reaction on these guys. :)
Good luck he's in Soen. Different Band, but great as well, saw them twice live in small Clubs, stood so close, could have grabbed Marcus Jiddell' s guitar. Great singer Joel Ekeloef... check them out - no growls
Great video, great song! If you’re not such a fan of the growls, I suggest you listen to the studio version of their track Burden, you will not be disappointed.
Hey Jim, you ought to check out "Burden". It's relatively short (for an Opeth song), and it's much closer to your style. No growling, and a beautiful, soulful blues sound.
Please react to either Bleak or Blackwater Park from the Blackwater Park album (though preferably the titletrack)! Also produced by Steven Wilson but an overall more complex and intricate album than Deliverance, which was essentially the first, heavy, half of a heavy/soft double album alongside Damnation.
Would love to hear you gives your views on a band called "Dead Letter Circus", in particular their song called "In Plain Sight", it' a short, but beautifully crafted song.
Opeth - Pale Communion , la reazione al disco intero , è questo ciò che suggerisco come prossimo episodio con questa band. Si tratta del loro miglior disco della nuova era. Un capolavoro progressive rock. Buon ascolto !.. e , innanzitutto un grande grazie se farai questo video reazione . Non vedo l’ora di scoprire la tua opinione in proposito. 😃😀 Grazie
If you're interested in other metal: Gorguts -- Le Toite Du Monde (for more dissonant/tech-heavy sound, brilliantly structured by a classical composer) Porcupine Tree -- Anesthetize (if you haven't already -- probably one of the best prog metal songs written).
Jim your are a beauriful soul. If you enjoyed this one, react to the Opeth song Reverie/harlequin Forest studio version lyric video. You will love this one 🤗
Fuck yeah. The Steven Wilson produced era was the high water mark for Opeth. Their newer stuff is great too, don't get me wrong, but Blackwater Park and Deliverance are the ducks guts, they will never be that good again. Musically they're still just as good but the brutality is gone so the contrast isn't so stark.
woopimagpie well said my man, im still yet to get into they're new shit but it took that long to get use to what i know, so with them pushing the envelope so far with they new shit its gonna take some time more to catch up
I always have liked Deliverance the least out of all their albums. there is a reason for this. Deliverance was a stressful album to record for Mikael and the gang, literally nothing worked as intended in the studio. And the lack of energy and just the overall "i'm so sick of this" can be heard all over in this album. it's definitely their least creative album to date.
Cool. Just a recommendation though from the sound engineer that I am. Your mic is front address and most likely cardioid, point it toward your mouth. There's no reason to do otherwise.
Hi Jim, what a great re-visit. Please re-visit karnivool Again, This time try a studie live recording. Karnivool - Alpha omega (ghost city sessions) This song is My favorit, and it Will please youre love of melodies and built up. Amazing. Please do This one for me and for yourself.
Actually there is a Band that has a special place in my heart.... but im not sure if i should recommend it to you cause its a bit different from everything you have so far. i dont think you ever did Fantasy Powermetal yet xD
Could you listen to an up and coming band, and help give them more exposure.🙏 please react to Sinaro - breaking the paradigm , the living dead, they are amazing, sound like trivium And silent civilian.
this is very different to black metal, this is death metal, death metal is faster and more technical and black metal is very slow and atmospheric and slow, but nonetheless great video.
opeth started as black metal. their first 2 albums were pure black metal. with their third album still were blackish but they became more progressive. fourth album and they were full on Progressive death metal.
Very hard to choose I reckon. When listening to Damnation I think the remaster is definitely better, it's so crisp and clean, but for Deliverance I think the original Steven Wilson master has a slight edge. It's just dirtier in its sound which suits it better I think. I bloody love that album though, I flogged it mercilessly when it first came out so I have that familiarity thing going on for sure. Bruce Soords remaster, as good as it is, just sounds a bit too shiny and polished for Deliverance. Just my 2c.
Oh wow, he's listened to the bullshit remastered version with reamped guitars and sampled drums. >_> The original is so much more dynamic and representative of that age of Opeth.
I love this song and i love Opeth but this song could do with a bit of editing and lose the last few minutes because the ending drags on with the same riff over and over and i just space out and lose interest. Just my 2 cents from a longtime Opeth fan.
11:15: and thus begins one of the greatest outros to a metal track, ever.
it's my ringtone ... accidentally let it keep ringing during a job meeting Friday :)
A-fucking men
What about the ending of reverie/harlequin forest??
ending of Demon of the fall? anyone?
deminybs it’s good but not as good as this one
That ending is one of the best pieces of music Opeth ever did
It's trance inducing
I disagree but I also agree.
Great outro....but I like the outro to Harlequin Forest better, I think, but it is a close thing.
Or that any other humans ever did
the section where Mike is singing Deliverance softly...that fucking musicianship from all of them is some of the best Opeth ever sounded
Once steven wilson and mikael akerfeldt started collaborating together, opeth slowly moved towards softer stuff (progressive rock) while porcupine tree started to become heavier (started having a more metal sound). Both had a big influence on each other i think, or at least it seems that way haha.
You're right!
The best ending ever... the piano and everything beautiful
Opeth - To Bid You Farewell. No growling on that one!
10:11 One of the greatest transitions of all time
Opeth are just genius musicians. Their songs are just brilliance every single time!
FINALLY someone reacts to this track!!!!!
This is one of their quintessential songs.
Opeth IS it's OWN genre.
Epic isn't enough to describe this band.
They always finish their gigs with this sound... it's just the best finish ever to a gig.. they are so tight
Martin Lopez was an absolute beast on the drums. He really elevated the opeth sound. Shame hes still not with the band.
mike c yeah I'm aware and do enjoy soen. Dont get me wrong I have no problem with axe axernot the new opeth drummer, but there was just something special about the Lopez opeth era
Era
He left at an appropriate time though. I'm not sure he could do the stuff Axe has been doing lately.
Both Lopez and Axe have great styles to their drumming, each is a evolution to the other thou and wonderful in their own rights too.
@@dryferr5557 Axe is not Opeth's 'new drummer', he's been with the band for more than TEN years. Get over it already.
@@gabolujan Never. BTW I love Axe lol
That outro section is legendary. Sometimes I listen to it all on its own when I need a fix!
don't know if you're familiar with Damnation album from Opeth, but basically every song from it is worth checking out :D I'm not gonna lie, it's my favourite album, not only considering their discography, but in general, I can listen it anytime, anyday :D
I don't hate their mixing death metal with progressive rock, but after all I like consistency of Damnation, where they focus on progressive music only with great success imho, and Windowpane song from this album, was the first song I've heard from them, and made me checking their whole discography (also the fact Steven Wilson was producing this album with them, just speaks for itself, how good it just had to be)
songs like "Windowpane", "Hope Leaves" or "In My Time Of Need" are just true beauties :D
Damnation is a great way to break into Opeth. Absolutely beautiful songs.
Voldren - Deliverance and Damnation match each other, gentle jazz to one and brutal metal to the next. Wonderfully done too
Jehes! Next one could be a song called Bleak from their album called Blackwater Park, which was produced by a gentleman called Steven Wilson. He also appears on the track!
Steven Wilson also produced this album and Damnation ! Great work on all three albums
Ok! That was new information.
Blackwater park is easily their greatest album. That is just a masterpiece.
Grave Flower - I second that. Blackwater Park is easily their finest work.
Oh man Bleak is SUPER TITS
*DELIVERANCE*
DELIVERANCE
deliverance
Opeth have dropped the heavy vocals in recent years
last 3 Observations as they call em
@@kevinpatrickcarey3741 It's a King Crimson reference btw ;)
Steven Wilson and Opeth match perfectly togheter
Word
So glad opeth is growing on you. try a fair judgment its the next song on the album and totally different feel. I highly suggest listening to the albums as a whole.
h3xOmega can you think of any back to back track on an album that compares to deliverance and a fair judgment. Maybe parabol parabola/ticks and leeches on tools lataralus
Hmmm maybe face of Melinda and serenity painted death? For me to contrasting songs that belong together
Also, this album came out at almost the same time as their album Damnation which has no growls at all and not metal, but one of my absolute fave Opeth albums
Brendo they are collaborative albums
asiciliz 46n2 yep
I love the instrumentation and clean vocals, but the demonic growls seem OTT for me, and I like bands like Lamb of God, Gojira, Messuggah, etc. I will give this one a listen!
watch deliverance live at bush shepherd's empire london!!! is a f***** masterpiece!!!!!
I ike the part after face down beneath the waterline the sound of the distortion and the riff give me chills......cant believe this is the same band that recorded Heritage
4:50 almost tears up at this part
Harlequin Forest also has a nice rhythmic outro. I prefer that one to be honest.
@Zedrik Allen jesus fuk youre on every opeth song guess we have good taste
I prefer Master's Apprentices myself. Especially the live version with Lopez on Lamentations.
If you want the "other side" of Opeth, try Nepenthe, Harvest, Eternal Rains Will Come, or *definitely* something from Damnation, i.e. Windowpane.
If you want to try an "older song" I think is highly underrated, try When (either live or studio). Or "Ghost of Perdition".
See the problem is their music is so different and all so amazing. I'm just going to stop now.

I too am a drummer who worships at the church of Lopez. His work in Soen has been great
mine was The Moore or something from Orchid, I don't quite remember...
Probably my favorite piece of music Opeth has done. All around excellent from beginning to end and insanely fun to play with guitar too. Like everyone says, LOVE the ending.

This ending is pure bliss!
Definitely react to Burden. One of their most poetic and superb songs.
Ooooh! I like the sound of that :)
Dude, you've just been OPETHED!
your reactions to more extreme metal are great. it reminds me of me showing my dad who i used to get to listen to deaht/black metal and he'd act just as genuine as you. wish me and him coulda got to a gig together. great videos already a fan.
Agghh! Could you make me feel any older!? Haha!
@@JimNewstead I'm almost 40. Not a dad yet and I don't know which one of you two I empathize more with :)))
Ahhh yeah !! Nice video !!
keep em coming :p
Im glad you can apreciate such a masterpiece!!! DO MORE OPETHHHH EHEHEH
Love your videos Jim! I'm curious to see what you'd think of softer, later Opeth, maybe Nepenthe or A Fleeting Glance?
9:52 that is one of the best solos into a transition I've ever heard.
Drapery falls is the one..!!! Honestly worth a listen a genuine masterpiece..!!!!
This song is bloody brilliant. I would really appreciate if you did more songs straight from their records. Their production is great (especially after Deliverance and forward). So a tip is maybe Masters' Apprentices from this record, Closure (Damnation) if you want a jazzy alt pop song, Reverie/Harlequin Forest (Ghost Reveries), or MAYBE just maybe The Devil's Orchard (Heritage) which is a great prog rock song (at this point Mikael stopped doing growling vocals).
Devil's Orchard is amazing. I like the growl, but that song alone made the change worth the sacrifice.
One progressive piece I think you’d really enjoy is from a band called Uneven Structure. The album
Februus. The songs are basically
One continuous song split up into 10 songs. The last two Plenitude and Finale would blow you away. One has to finish and the other start with no gaps to get the full experience when Finale kicks in.
It was so nice looking someone listening for the first time to my two favorite bands (Tool and Opeth). Your reaction to the grudge by Tool was... Speechless ? :D
Even though i would put Tool as my favorite, i make my comment on Opeth vid since it seems it needs more love ;)
Some suggestions for those bands, even if it's hard to choose :
Tool :
Parabol + Parabola (Lateralus)
46 & 2 (Aenima)
Opeth (no growls) :
To bid you farewell (Morningrise)
Hope Leaves (Damnation - This album has no growls (like latests albums) and no distortions (unique in their discography), and it's a really good one)
Opeth (with growls) :
Master's Apprentice (Deliverance)
Bleak (blackwater park)
Black Rose Immortal (Morningrise - if you can handle the ~25 minutes)
I also see a lot of good songs in other people comments too ! Just pick any of them ;)
Keep the good work, and sorry for the wall of text !
PS : Even if this could be true for Opeth aswell, you should really take the time to listen to the full Tool albums once you've done your reaction videos (Lateralus is my favorite, but it's just personnal taste). It's really something that you should try if you like the band, it's another experience from listening "randomly" to the songs.
Check out 'Long Seasons' by the Fishmans. A Japanese back, it's 1 track that is 35 minutes. (and was released in its entirety as an album)
Deliverance is definetly a masterpiece!, that ending always gives me goosebumps :)
I Highly recommend checking out Slugdge - Putrid Fairytale, their latest album ''Esoteric Malacolgy'' (2018) might be in my personal metal top 5 albums of the year, they are a 2-man band from the UK (after the release of this album they were joined by bassist Moat Lowe (No Sin Evades His Gaze) and drummer Alan Cassidy (The Black Dahlia Murder), this song features high energy, awesome guitar riffs/solo's, pretty brutal growling vocals with now and then a bit of clean. Their lyrics are based around some sort of fantasy malacology universe (Slugs, Slime, Squids etc...), i hope all this will convince you to do a reaction on these guys. :)
I so miss Martin Lopez in Opeth...
Good luck he's in Soen. Different Band, but great as well, saw them twice live in small Clubs, stood so close, could have grabbed Marcus Jiddell' s guitar. Great singer Joel Ekeloef... check them out - no growls
Great video, great song! If you’re not such a fan of the growls, I suggest you listen to the studio version of their track Burden, you will not be disappointed.
Hey keep up the great work buddy! (waiting for more Tool in particular!)
Hey Jim, you ought to check out "Burden". It's relatively short (for an Opeth song), and it's much closer to your style. No growling, and a beautiful, soulful blues sound.
I love it. The whole album is brilliant.
Two records were released Damnation and Deliverance . A quite one and a heavy one. The titles are telling you all about the meaning
Please react to either Bleak or Blackwater Park from the Blackwater Park album (though preferably the titletrack)!
Also produced by Steven Wilson but an overall more complex and intricate album than Deliverance, which was essentially the first, heavy, half of a heavy/soft double album alongside Damnation.
Greatest outro I've ever heard
it is the greatest outro ever IMO
Great channel, cool english accent and diction!
Would love to hear you gives your views on a band called "Dead Letter Circus", in particular their song called "In Plain Sight", it' a short, but beautifully crafted song.
One of my favorite outros. Should check out Echoes Cult of Luna for a great intro.
I always love the ending.
Wow awesome way to start my morning

I really enjoy your reactions!
You may enjoy some Protest The Hero, if you aren't familiar with them.
My recommendation is -C'est La Vie
If you're interested in other metal:
Gorguts -- Le Toite Du Monde (for more dissonant/tech-heavy sound, brilliantly structured by a classical composer)
Porcupine Tree -- Anesthetize (if you haven't already -- probably one of the best prog metal songs written).
If you flick back through my videos, you'll see Anesthetize a few months ago. Thanks for the recommendations!
Ah silly me!
Good one :) i feel like its time i recommend sonmething special: Madder Mortem with the Song “stones for eyes“. Their vocalist is a force of nature xD
Please do listen to Harlequin Forest and Bleak!
OPETH -BLEAK

Fucking great song. Probably their second best ever!
And what's the best?

Steven wilson and mikael did storm corrosion together and it's different. Luddet innen is a good song off the album ..
I'm very interested to see your reaction to Aathma parts 1 to 4 by Persefone.
Hi Jim, what a great re-visit. Please re-visit karnivool Again, This time try a studie live recording. Karnivool - Alpha omega (ghost city sessions) This song is My favorit, and it Will please youre love of melodies and built up. Amazing. Please do This one for me and for yourself.
Opeth are a truly peerless band.
Opeth - when
my brainnnnnnnnnnnnnn
Piece of art, innit?
Oh yes!
Man, I just checked, how have you still not done Coil/Heir Apparent??
There’s always more stuff to do….
Actually there is a Band that has a special place in my heart.... but im not sure if i should recommend it to you cause its a bit different from everything you have so far. i dont think you ever did Fantasy Powermetal yet xD
From the thumbnail I thought it would be a Joe Rogan reaction video lol
Production is by Steve Wilson, of course, of Porcupine Tree fame. Try listening to PTs Aneasthetise….I believe it will be your sort of thing :)
Could you listen to an up and coming band, and help give them more exposure.🙏 please react to Sinaro - breaking the paradigm , the living dead, they are amazing, sound like trivium And silent civilian.
Can you react to The ocean, the almightiness contradiction
Ah! Here is your recommendation! Sorry I missed this earlier, but at least I got there in the end!
this is very different to black metal, this is death metal, death metal is faster and more technical and black metal is very slow and atmospheric and slow, but nonetheless great video.
opeth started as black metal.
their first 2 albums were pure black metal. with their third album still were blackish but they became more progressive. fourth album and they were full on Progressive death metal.

Remastered version sounds way better in any case !

Oh wow, he's listened to the bullshit remastered version with reamped guitars and sampled drums. >_> The original is so much more dynamic and representative of that age of Opeth.
My like makes it 666 😁
Come on, Opeth LIVE is WAY better than theri album versions.
Like .. like Porcupine Tree is better live than on album? o_O
Wow... :D
Man I would love to hear Tool cover this song!
I love this song and i love Opeth but this song could do with a bit of editing and lose the last few minutes because the ending drags on with the same riff over and over and i just space out and lose interest. Just my 2 cents from a longtime Opeth fan.
It does go on, but I don't mind that, it's a really cool bit of riffage!
Fair enough Jim ;)
