    Lyrics
    Floating on mist
    Crept up the caverns of my brain
    Received no warning
    From nothing to a life code
    Walk with me, you'll never leave
    Wait to see your spirit free
    Tell me how your heart's in need
    As I drown you in the sea
    Unwinding snares of distrust
    Your wrist in my fast grip
    Look me in the eye, I'm clear
    This is your time
    Face down beneath the waterline
    Gazing into the deep
    From love to death
    In a time span of seconds
    Oblivious to regret
    Pushed into belief
    In liquid cellophane
    Gasping for air
    Mercy in my eyes
    Is the shade of the night
    The piercing sounds you make
    Soaring higher, higher now
    And once left in my wake
    Your memory is nothing but the scars on me
    All over now
    Forgotten why I needed this
    Standing down
    Disappear into the obscure
    Resting days
    Waiting for new disease
    Biding time
    Locked inside insanity
    It always burns within
    The downward spiral never ends
    When driven into sin
    Your salvation's found in a sinner's deed
    The devil guides the way
    Tells me what to say
    Pours himself inside
    And snuffs the final light
    Deliverance
    Thrown back at me
    Deliverance
    Laughing at me

    I have no idea who the fuck Opeth are, I've never listened to them and this just showed up on Autoplay after a concert from Zeal & Ardor. But holy fuck, this is amazing. Top recording quality, the vocalist just makes me smile, and their sound is elegantly badass, fucking amazing. Drumming, guitar, bass, they're all on-point and accurate. The frontman has a great growl AND voice. Fucking awesome.
    Edit: six months after writing this comment, I'm a huge Opeth fan. I'm late to the party, but they are seriously one of the most skilled bands I've ever seen.

    Let's all agree that Martin Lopez was key to Opeth in their prime. Those drums tell a story when he plays. Perfect combination of talent and emotion. Does he get enough recognition? I don't know. But he's bloody brilliant.

    • @archghoul

      Lopez's live playing became very inconsistent. I'm not going to speculate as to why. But suffice it was serious enough for him to be replaced by Mikael's former Bloodbath mate, Martin Axenrot.

    Over the past 4 or 5 years Opeth has become my 2nd all time favorite band of any music genre. There is something strangely relaxing about their music, almost ASMR like. I've dozed off to My Arms, Your Hearse a few times, and Orchid gives me an out of body feelin. There is not a single waisted note in their songs, nor is there a single filler track on any of their albums. Mikael has such a ferocious vocal distortion, but yet his singing is graceful, and he speaks with such a deep and somber tone. Opeth is that band that very few bands are: an experience

      Both Martín and Axe are great drummers, but this is not a fucking competition... Opeth was a band that searched something beyond "techinique", I mean, if I have to choose a guitarist for a band I would prefer Peter Lindgren than John Petrucci... why? because I prefer the feeling and mood of Peter. As a drummer I hate when people close their minds and say that Portnoy is the best, and then I ask them... ok, what other prog drummers can you mention? Gavin Harrison and Martín López are better drummers than Mike, this is a matter of taste of course.

    Almost 2 years ago, I was introduced to Opeth by a RUclipsr who recommended them in a video which, to this day, I’m still trying to find, he recommended this song as a perfect song to show non metalheads how good metal can be, I was already into metal, you know, the more traditional stuff like Megadeth and Slipknot, but when I first listened to that intro, it took me like a week to get passed those first seconds, once I did, I listened to the whole song, and it changed my world, you wouldn’t expect someone who is just getting into metal to listen to Opeth as one of their first couple of bands, but you know what? Fucking worth it, to this day, they still are my favorite band of all time, there’s just one artist that I like as much, and that’s Zappa, but apart from him, few bands have made such an impact in my life, long live to Opeth!!!! And long live to one of the greatest guitarists alive, Mikael Akerdfelt!!!!!

    • @FeedThemCake
      @FeedThemCake 2 года назад +19

      I really like Lopez's choice of tempo throughout this gig. He increases it in certain parts where it contributes nicely to the intensity of the song, while in other parts he actually slows down the tempo compared to the studio recording - for example, the opening riff in Masters Apprentices feels much chunkier while most of A Fair Judgment feels more profoundly sentimental. In both cases these slight adjustments improve the songs IMO, to the extent that I don't even listen to the studio versions of these tracks anymore

    • @Meshuggapeth
      @Meshuggapeth 6 лет назад +1

      branlopgar Lopez was great, but he couldn’t have pulled off some of the newer Opeth fan favorites like “The Devil’s Orchard” or “A Fleeting Glance”. Axe’s drumming is hypnotic and brutal at the same time, adding new styles and sounds to Opeth’s texture . Lopez does though deserve credit for adding heaviness to Opeth’s sound beginning on My Arms, Your Hearse. His playing on the Deliverance/Damnation and Ghost Reveries albums deserve widespread recognition for they worked so well with Opeth’s style, especially when mixed in with Mendez’s excellent bass playing

And here they play twice before going to the last part. Anyway, I could watch the last 3minutes until the end of times.

For all the imperfections in his live performances - particularly the rushed tempos - his feel and swing, along with his sense of dynamics was impeccable.
