I wonder if he could preserve his voice better if he took vocal lessons. That said, he absolutely slayed his part on In Cauda Venenum, his clean vocals are at the peak now.
@Rritobak Dutta he did it for 20 yrs+ not really a quick burner. He blames new in ear mics and stuff for his lack luster growls lately ..cant hear himself etc. I love his cleans though so its fine not really complaining
Especially considering they had been touring non-stop since Deliverance and getting really into the groove of their songs from all those hours of playing music.
@@raz0rcarich99 I'd argue that pretty much anything from June 2003 until Lopez's last gig (July 2005) is equally good. There were some great performances from late 2001 onwards to late 2005 / early 2006 too.

Holy cow I was at this show! I am the person up at the very front with the long hair who keeps throwing up the devil horns. I was standing right in front of the bassplayer 2 people deep. This was my first Opeth show and it blew my mind! My cousin had an extra ticket and asked me if I wanted to go. This is blowing my mind and has brought back a rush of memories I totally forgot about!
I know everyone is talking about Mikael’s growls and whatnot, which I love, BUT! Martin Lopez playing this shit bumped up a few BPM’s faster is fucking impressive!!!
@@TheFbiFilesRepeat I wish! I was at their shows around this time, but not this particular one. But I can say that out of the hundreds and hundreds of unreleased live Opeth recordings in my collection, this one really stands out.
This was Opeth as i grew up with them. Still think their two first album was the best. All respect for that they wanted to evolve but for me this was it.
Mas que caralho! Olha a performance dessa música antigamente 100 vezes maior que Royal Albert Hall em 2010. Simplesmente fantástico, amo Opeth nessa época que para mim foi a época de Ouro da Banda e melhor formação. Tudo depois de Watershed é chato para mim.
I saw this tour in Charlotte, NC a week before this show. It was my 16th birthday and I was completely obsessed with Opeth at the time. I'll never forget it. Thanks so much for this footage - would love to see more from this show!
Everything just clicked - you can practically feel the band's adrenaline. It set the mood for the rest of the show, which was great before but phenomenal from this point onwards.
Hey! You see, Aphil Ethereal's solo is performed by Mikael! But in the RAH performance it is Fredrik who does the solo... I wonder if there is a possibility for Mikael to continue transferring his solos to Fredrik...
Frederick plays solos. Mikael plays solos. Both of them are Lead Guitar and Rhythm Guitar. Both of them are main guitarist. Its a thing to other bands. Even when Petr is still around its the same. Its just that Mikael plays lot more solos in order for Fred/Petr to play an acoustic part. The Acoustic parts are tricky and impossible to sing to while playing it, plus turning on the effect is a drag too.
@@daghetto101 Yes, I am aware of that! By the way, there's a video from that same channel where they play the song "THE MOOR" and Mikael plays the acoustic part and sings at the same time, which is extremely complicated. However, at the Royal Albert Hall and from then onwards, acoustic fingering was done on the keyboard, while he just sang.
@@Lvcifvge This band is just amazing. They really wanted that acoustic parts on their songs. Playing both Lead & Rhythm for both guitarist (of course Mikael while singing). Guys doing both solos. Damn this band is so good. I guess Mikael was like "hey bruv you dont sing, might as well do the acoustics too, its fine i do some solos to balance it out for ye" LMAO. Hiring a Keyboardist made things easier and even sounds more unique lol
The black metal influences here are pretty prominent and on the other tracks on the album. I don't understand why people keep turning a blind eye to it. This sounds more like Prog Black to me than Prog Death.
@@rodrigorivera4679 Opeth is a unique band and I'm not aware of any album resembling My Arms, Your Hearse. However, I could suggest some materials that would/wouldn't scratch the itch. It's not a similar album recommendation and you may have listened to them already. In The Woods: Heart of The Ages Novembre: Dreams D'Azur and Novembrine Waltz Katatonia: Dance of December Souls Agalloch: Pale Folklore Rotting Christ: Triarchy of The Lost Lovers Moonsorrow: Kivenkantaja Ulver: Bergtatt (very popular) Windir: Arntor May I know, what in particular about black metal, prevents you from appreciating it?
I think Mike played the bass on MAYH, right? So unless Mendez is improvising and enhancing the bass lines, I'd say he did a pretty darned great job on bass for a 'backup' option until Mendez arrived.
@@Dhelira Tbh, it might have to do with overall band decisions and other stuff (aging as well, I suppose) but I think I was referring to the fact that nowdays most of the time they play old songs slower and with keyboard arrangements, both things that in my opinion kill the agression, where it is needed.

Mikael's growling is mind blowing in here

@@telefrag. he stopped smoking to better his vocals a couple years ago. I don't know if he took classes though

@Rritobak Dutta opinions are like assholes though. We all got em.
I think he may have taken some lessons, because he changed his approach to doing growling vox a while back
Martin Lopez is such a god damn legendary drummer
Too right. He absolutely crushed this performance.
and he's singing along
Such a great drummer. He’s really good Amon Amarth too
I'd pay any amount of money to see this lineup perform live like this.
$60,000, I can get it done
It was fucking awesome. Wouldn't trade it for the world.
Snare of heaven
The vocals
The drums
Mendez side to side headbanging
I know man, you just describred what Opeth meant to be.
Definitely the best performance of this song I've seen. His growls are so fucking good in this performance.
2004 is arguably their peak year perfomance wise.
Especially considering they had been touring non-stop since Deliverance and getting really into the groove of their songs from all those hours of playing music.

@@The_Karst Roundhouse Tapes was legendary too.
I think they play better recently, but his growls have changed so much. I prefer his old style of growling
Mikes grunts sound like devil in its self. This is insane, thank so fuck much for it.
TAKE ME AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY
This is my all time favorite song. So heavy, so angry, so dark, so beautiful. Amazing and perfect!!
Wish we had more concerts of this era
Glad you enjoyed this - I'll try to upload more over the coming weeks / months!

My godness, Martin Lopez's drum sound, especially the snare is too goooooood!!!!
Martin Lopez is one of the best drummers on the planet.... 😍
Massive brutal soundf from them here!!! the drummer was a beast raw percussion power!!!! not the same without him!!
They just had the fire here, best performance of this song I've seen, breathtaking
the best line up with their best last performances

Hard to believe this was 20 years ago. Insane show
Opeth at its peak with its best lineup!
I'm utterly envious of all those that got to witness this magnificent performance. Opeth rocks! \m/
THE RAIN WAS WAVING GOODBYE
This is the lineup I love !! And miss
The sound of the snare is EVIL, love it
This show was one of their greatest performances of all time. Absolutely incredible, and a fantastic crowd too.

Good god, Mikael was headbanging so hard in these times!
Gah. Fucking Lopez and Mendez. Ultimate rhythm section.
Fantastic
Best lineup of Opeth
and the forest folded its branches around me
Mas que caralho! Olha a performance dessa música antigamente 100 vezes maior que Royal Albert Hall em 2010.

Best Opeth lineup!
Was this the same show where that guy ran on stage with the pizza asking the members each who ordered it? That was HILARIOUS.
Ha ha...no, similar lighting, but the pizza guy show was in May 2001!
Thanks for posting!
Don’t get me wrong, Axe is an amazing drummer, but Lopez has a feel and passion that’s untouchable!!!
7:37 and beyond in this song is probably favourite opeth moment
Everything just clicked - you can practically feel the band's adrenaline. It set the mood for the rest of the show, which was great before but phenomenal from this point onwards.
SHE FACED ME IN AWE, This is Opeth's best line ever. When I think of Opeth is is (1) the Night and the Silent Water and "SHE FACED ME IN AWE".
Yeah I even enjoy when he sings this line at the Royal Albert Hall, it's magnificent
She, laughing and weeping at once, TAKE ME AWAAAAY. That moment always gives me goosebumps. His delivery is spectacular.
3:32 mendez signature headbang🥲
Legendary, fucking brutal
Jeez, what a fuck, this is great.
Ooooh! Great sound, great job to upload this video. Thanks a lot.
My God, Martin Lopez..............................
I agree that you rarely get to hear a classic songs from a legendary band like them 😈😈🤘🤘
This song and When are my favorites off My Arms, Your Hearse record.
OH MY GOOOOOOD
A very good performance of the song. Martin Lopez is an outstanding drummer. A pity he left the band

I’d also add Emperor’s “Anthems to the Welkin at Dust”, Thantifaxath’s “Sacred White Noise”, and Dissection’s “Storm of the Light’s Bane”.

I thought this part was like (snare, kick, snare, kick)
I prefer this version over the next one from 2010; there's too much keyboard in those
ઇ
You know what I liked about Per? He knew what his place was. Joakim is a phenomenal keyboardist as well, but he just does not have that.
Zedrik Allen after*
I'm not sure I understand. What do you mean.... Joakim seeks for more attention? Really, I did not understand

@@francismcalister7811 But with certain songs like Demon of the fall, the keyboards add another great layer to the song.
Joakim is a much better backing vocalist though. You have to give him that much.
Opeth at its peak. Opeth without Peter and Martin is simply subpar passionless Opeth.
In cauda wenenum they really stepped it up in the passion area
I wanted to hear this song but the fucking drums sounds totally horrendous
These drums kick ass!
