The world is huge. All the music ever made until this moment, is but just a drop in the bucket. From beating sticks on rocks to breakbeat to opeth, it's all good (mostly) 😁
Yeah. Mikael said in the Ghost Reveries bonus DVD that he used to hate keyboards in metal, then gradually started to change his mind and started to love them
Lyrics: By the turnstile beckons a damsel fair The face of Melinda neath blackened hair No joy would flicker in her eyes Brooding sadness came to a rise Words would falter to atone Failure had passed the stepping stone She had sworn her vows to another This is when no-one will bother And conceded pain in crumbling mirth A harlot of God upon the earth Found where she sacrificed her ways That hollow love in her face Still I plotted to have her back The contentment that would fill the crack My soul released a fluttering sigh This day fell, the darkness nigh I took her by the hand to say All faith forever has been washed away I returned for you in great dismay Come with me, far away to stay Endlessly gazing in nocturnal prime She spoke of her vices and broke the rhyme But baffled herself with the final line My promise is made but my heart is thine
@Thilo9191 I partially agree with you. I'm definitely a much bigger fan of their clean lyrics than their growling lyrics, though I like their growling lyrics as well. It's all a matter of taste, I suppose.
@amitab123marwaha It sounds so much better having the sound pound your soul through large speakers with the band mere meters away from you. You feel as if you are one with the band. Mikales voice and the occasional back-up vocals are 110% what you would expect to hear.
@GeneralWarburg I find it's more a question of adaptation and compensation. To this day, I still hate growling, although I have grown a custom to opeth's growling because of the melody that surrounds it and completes it perfectly. Other bands do not have that "melody" and therefor sounds (to me) more like loud, annoying noises... but as I said: it's just a question of adaptation; eventually I will get used to it and be able to stand it.
Ah. I get you. I don't think he complains about it too much though, in fact I think some of the keyboard parts they added to the old songs (the mellotron sound in Demon Of The Fall for example) really compliments the music
i love this part of opeth. but i don't like the songs with him growling. i love his voice but I am not into that growling stuff. It's a pity cause I really like that band.
I actually saw this tour live. It was truly epic. It's sad the original members are no longer together. I think there was magick when they played. Hey, Ackerfeld, lighten up. Get over your petty shit, call up *the BAND* GET BACK ON THE BUS. Fuck your stupid cold air, no fun, no-tour-bus-I'll only fly planes bullshit and be a musician that's not so arrogant. Maybe make some music that's not a complete ripoff of every cool '70s era rock band.
There is no 'petty s.' The old band members left due to their personal life circumstances. Mikael never wanted Peter or Lopez to leave. You don't have a clue.
The world needs more of this. Real Music.
absolutely beautiful harmonies like them
Benjamin Sussmann YES!
There's loads out there, listen to Weedpecker - III it will drag you in immediately

Hell yeah !!!
Incredible lyrics and obscure words. I am amazed.
+Slayer Bloodline I do agree.
amazing ...
"I took her by the hand to say
All faith forever has been washed away
I returned for you in great dismay
Come with me, far away to stay"
My promise is made, but my heart iiiiis thine.
damn, nice! \m/
Greatness at it's best ;)
your hot
This song is like fine..silky smooth and delicious. like a nice juicy nug
Final solo...explosion of emotion
Yeah. Mikael said in the Ghost Reveries bonus DVD that he used to hate keyboards in metal, then gradually started to change his mind and started to love them
Come back to thia comment
@@mangomonsuuni458 But I'm old now.
@@greensmurf9623 how old were you when you commented this
@@cnaratay1661 I turn 35 in two days, so between 22/23.
The DVD is called "The Roundhouse Tapes", i can totally recommend it! Opeth's best DVD!
So refreshing to see an audience start a clap on their own.... And IN TIME.
Opeth is so Psychedelic! I love it!
Mikael's face at 8:13 says it all...
Pure emotion...
This is MUSIC, my friends
I have 3 different versions of "Still Life" album - original, DigiPak and this new re-release. In my opinion, this is by far the best Opeth album.
I wish I had his voice....
The keyboard adds so much more atmosphere to this song.
Love love love his voice and music
A voz do cara ao vivo é igual em estúdio, impressionante!🖤🤘🏽
a voz do cara e incrível, tanto gutural quanto limpa, de fato um vozeirão.
Não é,ao vivo consegue ser ainda melhor na maioria das vezes ( nesse show todo por exemplo)
Love it when they jam out a little, I would like to see more improvisation from them, it'd be interesting to hear how they would perform
This performance gives me goosebumps.
i feel opeth's live performances sound better than the recorded ones :D
Amitab Marwaha except soldier of fortune
Atleast they fixed that tempo drop (when the electric guitar riff kicks in) on the live version
Better
How are you doing
Oh yeah 🙏🌸🦋🌱🌼
Fuck I saw this song play last night at Wembley 10 years after this! Crazy!
One of the best song live-performed I've ever seen.
The guitar work on this touching my soul .Opeth is life.
one word describe it all ..
( OPETH )
Lyrics:
By the turnstile beckons a damsel fair
The face of Melinda neath blackened hair
No joy would flicker in her eyes
Brooding sadness came to a rise
Words would falter to atone
Failure had passed the stepping stone
She had sworn her vows to another
This is when no-one will bother
And conceded pain in crumbling mirth
A harlot of God upon the earth
Found where she sacrificed her ways
That hollow love in her face
Still I plotted to have her back
The contentment that would fill the crack
My soul released a fluttering sigh
This day fell, the darkness nigh
I took her by the hand to say
All faith forever has been washed away
I returned for you in great dismay
Come with me, far away to stay
Endlessly gazing in nocturnal prime
She spoke of her vices and broke the rhyme
But baffled herself with the final line
My promise is made but my heart is thine
Gosh i love that snare drum there :o
Saw them Last night at The Warfield in SF...they were AMAZING!
love this song and still life . opeth keep rocking on.
Opeth and Pink Floyd are in an absolutely different league to everyone else.
I would include Soundgarden and Porcupine Tree, but...
every live show of this song is fire!!!!
this is one of the best songs on the DVD
Most epic solo. Ever. Ever ever ever.
only 13,906 views....
that's a shame.
-winnipeg manitoba
Such a hard song to play clean when your live and not sitting down respect
i miss per
I miss Martin Lopez... And Peter.
This one sounds so good
long life to opeth
simply brilliant....these guys are nothing less than gods
Tnx for posting this :) A bit of special song for me atm :)
Hope you’re still rocking out dude
Love this song
what a performances. i wish if i could be there
Beautiful
Awesome!
Unigue and irrepleceable.
...wish to see Opeth here in Kiev!..
hope u're doing fine pal
Hell yeah! Was looking for this for a while..
@Thilo9191 I partially agree with you. I'm definitely a much bigger fan of their clean lyrics than their growling lyrics, though I like their growling lyrics as well. It's all a matter of taste, I suppose.
Very good and amazing outro
If anyone's wondering Michael's guitar is in the left ear. lol
awesome, thanks for upload!
@amitab123marwaha They are touring! Be sure you don't miss them if they go somewhere near you! I strongly recommend you go =D
agreed,,, agreed... AGREED!!!
@amitab123marwaha It sounds so much better having the sound pound your soul through large speakers with the band mere meters away from you. You feel as if you are one with the band. Mikales voice and the occasional back-up vocals are 110% what you would expect to hear.
That was God like.
wait...this is the roundhouse tapes isn't?
It's on Disc 2.
Great economy of playing from Mikael there.
niceeeeee
I feel so sorry for you.
thank you babi mou..
@JoNnYShizzle i guess my next wish will be to hear opeth live :)
@GeneralWarburg I find it's more a question of adaptation and compensation. To this day, I still hate growling, although I have grown a custom to opeth's growling because of the melody that surrounds it and completes it perfectly.

1:47 check out the guy in the top hat in the back row! XD
this song once more demonstrates the huge gap lopez left....
If you mean this very video, then i must tell you, it's axe.
mmm... there was no bonus DVD coming with my copy, how did you get that ?
pro!
@JoNnYShizzle yes i will :)
Ah. I get you.
I don't think he complains about it too much though, in fact I think some of the keyboard parts they added to the old songs (the mellotron sound in Demon Of The Fall for example) really compliments the music
@amitab123marwaha They do!
what shirt is mikael wearing?
by the way watch 7:46 - 7:49... the guy is in his own world now. hahaha
this has to be from the roundhouse tapes because Axe is the drummer not Lopez
where can i find the whole thing?
i love this part of opeth. but i don't like the songs with him growling. i love his voice but I am not into that growling stuff. It's a pity cause I really like that band.
listen to it for a bit and you will get used to it, thats what i had to do
wow your comment is 9 years old, didnt see that
Maybe they got into growling at some point
thats long gone now, i enjoyed it but im 55 now , dont miss it at all. you should pick up the new album
opeth makes me proud of being swedish.
4:25 dude... the tone on that keyboard is so dismal
Why do you feel sorry for him?
no fretless
The drums suck on this one. It's not Martin Lopez is it?
Kusursuz
I actually saw this tour live. It was truly epic. It's sad the original members are no longer together. I think there was magick when they played. Hey, Ackerfeld, lighten up.

+Divorceja Or maybe he could just keep doing what he's doing and you could find new things to be a fan of?
I do like your comment. I really liked old Opeth.
There is no 'petty s.' The old band members left due to their personal life circumstances. Mikael never wanted Peter or Lopez to leave. You don't have a clue.
