      well.. when you write classical music on modern instruments it converts pretty seamlessly

    • @chessbrainiac
      @chessbrainiac 7 лет назад +19

      That depends mostly on how it is arranged. You can have bad arrangements and good arrangements (like this one). A bad arrangment can ruin what is otherwise a beautiful piece.

    • @soullessSiIence
      @soullessSiIence 5 лет назад +12

      It's not progressive metal (and it's not written like that). The entire song is in 4/4. It's just a rock song.

    • @WhiteKhamaleon
      @WhiteKhamaleon 5 лет назад +6

      Step 2 - get Nine clones of yourself

    • @sydkvistarn
      @sydkvistarn 5 лет назад +4

      Doesn't change the fact that Opeth is a prog band and that they produce prog rock. It's like saying Beatles made that one Helter Skelter song so they're basicly a rock-band. Doesn't work

    • @Grease-Goblin
      @Grease-Goblin 5 лет назад +22

      Because, as we all know, you can't be progressive if you're in 4/4.

    To hear this - a nostalgic favorite of mine - interpreted in this particular style is a very special thing. It's almost archaic, as if my soul is being gripped by the voices of a past life. This is a privilege, and an expansion to musical horizon. Thank you so much.

    Opeth - Lyrics
    Stay with me awhile
    Rise above the vile
    Name my final rest
    Poured into my chest
    Into the orchard I walk peering way past the gate
    Wilted scenes for us who couldn't wait
    Drained by the coldest caress, stalking shadows ahead
    Halo of death, all I see is departure
    Mourner's lament, but it's me who's the martyr
    Pledge yourself to me
    Never leave me be
    Sweat breaks on my brow
    Given time ends now
    Into the orchard I walk peering way past the gate
    Wilted scenes for us who couldn't wait
    Drained by the coldest caress, stalking shadows ahead
    Halo of death, all I see is departure
    Mourner's lament, but it's me who's the martyr
    Spirit painted sin
    Embers neath my skin
    Veiled in pale embrace
    Reached and touched my face
    Into the orchard I walk peering way past the gate
    Wilted scenes for us who couldn't wait
    Drained by the coldest caress, stalking shadows ahead
    (Release your grip, let me go, into the night)
    Halo of death, All I see is departure
    Mourner's lament, but it's me who's the martyr
