LMFAO. As a major potterhead and a big fan of Opeth, this comment made my day. 🤟🏻😂 And now I know why I got this feeling that I'd seen Mikael somewhere else before. Mikael Akerfeldt and the Prisoner of Opeth.
I knew who they were over 10 years ago, but I was close minded about what they would sound like without hearing them. A few years back I read a heavy metal magazine about how Opeth changed and alienated their fans, I was intrigued and gave it a listen. I believe they are the only band besides Tool that I get excited to hear what they are doing.
Found watershed randomly at Target xx Had known Closure and Grand Conjuration that was it Not going into it expecting Metal Opeth i accepted it a bit differently than other albums It grows on you over time all opeth albums are somewhat like journeys
Maybe because it´s cold and dark outside. They have to stay inside and make music to avoid sickness from the dark winter…. :-) or it´s because the school system is more focused on music than ones in other countries. Who knows?
@@thomasschemer711 I heard thanks to all the high taxes over there, no sense trying to find a good job and get ahead because the government won't let you excel, so the only good way out is the arts.

You guys can stand up to any band in the world,I saw Ozzy in 83,and I'm enjoying this concert even more, makes me mad how you think your songs aren't as good, your a genius, hello wake up🤭🤘
my art teacher saw them life and from what she told me it really sounds that she had the concert of her life lol And shes defenitly right, opeth has a massive variaty of sounds from folk,death to progressive not to mention medival dark vibe to it and lately they experimented with jazz sounds. this band has a big musical spectrum
Opeth changed my life and the way i listen to music. I had never fully paid attention to a +10 minutes song until i found these people... And then i found Steven Wilson, holy shit.
"at the end of this song I'm going to sleep" I said to myself. 12 minutes passed already and not only I can't stop listening to Opeth but the same song. not only a combination of riffs, rhytm and lyric, thing they play is a journey , that's why I'm a faithful fan of this guys. Cheers
I am very lucky I got to see Opeth Live in Zagreb on 26th September this year! And later I found out that Waltteri from Bodom After Midnight is their drummer! Wow!
1. The keyboardist is the real hero of the day here. Was kinda suspicious of the new guy (throughout what - 3 albums now:) ). But he's killing it. Total respect. 2. Akerfeldt is being Akerfeldty. Nothing new, nothing bad either. 3. Mendez, Fredrik, Axe are all doing a great job. 4. Opeth is not what it was. Get over that. Old stuff was good, new is good as well. 5. Growl are not that bad. But if you miss ol' good growls - Bloodbath welcomes you.
I should add this also: Opeth are fuckin geniuses of music. They are controversial , that's correct. but they are also giving the best. What you may like about them is that they are truly progressive. You may not like that as well, but that says something about you.
@@BrendanThompson Yeah, I was referring to Akerfeldt/Tagtgren period actually :). I've thought the same as you, however I saw one of latest live videos of them recently. And though the new guy is not what you'd expect of the singer after the previous ones, he has that sombre touch in his voice and appearance that though it didn't get me fully into it, but at least got my respect.
Opeth cannot be too loud!! Best band in history - even rivaling the greats of the past (Beatles, Hendrix, Stones) these guys are the finest since Beethoven, Chopin, Bach.
Been a fan of Opeth for over 10 years, their music has evolved so much through the years but it's always got that signature sound! It's cool they still play older songs aswell even though Åkerfeldt clearly is more in to classic rock nowadays. Don't forget your roots, always a good thing :) I like all of their albums, maybe exactly because they're all so very different. Good set!
These guys are genius & Mikael is so awesome, got to meet them in Orlando at House of Blues & smoked a blunt w/them outside the tour bus, unfortunately my girl friend there "Metal Suzy" that knows them personally & our crew didn't get to party the night with them as they usually end their tour in Orlando but this time, they had another show to go to. I told Mikael to tell the bus driver rushing them to leave, to chill, you're the rock star,lol. But he's so nice he laughed it off a bit & we had fun. Such amazing true musicians & their music is transcendent to another realm, another time & space. They take me away to this land of Avalon & Camelot & the lore of mysticism that is true reality & beauty & the raw emotion. The way they transition their changes is so beautiful & amazing. Rock on Opeth, 1 of the most talented group of guys on this Plan(et)
as an opeth fan from the very start, who listened to a bootleg tape of black rose immortal basically nonstop on my bus ride to school, i LOVED damnation, and can't believe anyone thinks it sucks
Ich möchte mir gar nicht vorstellen nach Udo Dirkschneider zu performen. Dass diese beiden Bands auf dem selben Festival sind..... Fehlplanung.Opeth ist so eine Bereicherung für jedes Festival!Wir haben jedes Album und auch 2 live DVDs. Ich war echt erschrocken wie unglücklich Michael aussieht...und dabei doch ein großartiges Konzert abliefert.
Anyone else think that Sorceress was a masterpiece? I felt that any shit talk that album got was completely unjustified, every song is gold and can bring me to tears! People bitch about the death metal being gone... not an issue I can listen to other death metal to get me fix for that!
Recently got a copy of Heritage. Man what a strange album I keep repeating the 15 minute to 32 minute mark. Songs like Nax whatever that song is Naxthine. " Opeth doing Spryo the Dragon instrumentals "
@@mayolicious69 I've been considering starting work on an opeth does blank video series i can think of various other moments like that; Opeth does Jethro Tull Pink Floyd King Crimson Spryo shit even a Megadeth vocal melody there are more everytime those moments happen i laugh and go man Akerfeldt really influenced by so many
I saw them play most of this set live in Philadelphia during this tour on May 6th. Fucking sick. Ghost, Demon gave me fuckin chills. First time I'd ever heard Deliverance too and it blew my mind.... now it's one of my favorite songs!
Es sind halt Perfektionisten, darum denken viele es hört sich an wie im Studio, das einzige was mich an eine live Auftritte stört ist die Akustik darum können die Mixer auch nicht viel ändern, also ich könnte sie mir auch in einer Kneipe anhören sie sind alle perfekte Musiker, einfach nur genial 👍👍👍
My bucket list has you on it..... ONE DAY, I WILL BE IN A WHEEL CHAIR, ESCAPED FROM MY NURSING HOME, up front, head banging til I drop :) Me love me sum OPETH ♥

Let’s be real we’re all just lucky to be alive while Opeth is making music & playing live!! 😎🤘❤️🙌🔥😎
so true!
True
Love how the keyboardist is by far the most animated.
They tend to be haha. Another example is Underoath's keyboardist
@@jbasti227 Epica's too
What does this mean?
Playing with his elbow is the very proof of this
@@juliusvm6116 That he's the most lively of the bunch. Joakim moves around a lot striking various poses while the other guys are mostly stationary.
03-01. You suffer 28:18
03-02. You suffer (one more time) 28:31
Nice
It's kind of weird I've seen Opeth play You Suffer more times than I've seen Napalm Death play it cause Opeth usually play it twice... hahah
hilarious!
@@tarkus1056 Nice
Mikael is my favorite stand up comic
the keyboardist fits in surprisingly well in their metal songs.
Hands down one of the most solid and musically diverse bands there is. I love Opeth and hope that they grace us with their music for years to come.
I did not know that Sirius Black was singing in opeth. Great performance
Sirius Akerfeldt
LMFAO. As a major potterhead and a big fan of Opeth, this comment made my day. 🤟🏻😂 And now I know why I got this feeling that I'd seen Mikael somewhere else before. Mikael Akerfeldt and the Prisoner of Opeth.
Are you Sirius? Or was it just a joke?
@@xMRxZEROx In HP, didn't the Lovegood newspaper implied Sirius was actually a harmless musician at one point?
@@nuke8672 q
Why have I neglected opeth for so long...maybe I wasnt ready for them,
Such Beautiful music.
I feel the same thing.
It almost require a learning curve. If don’t know what to expect lt is easy to just push it away.

Welcome! Glad you made it.
the vocalist is so calm but growls so brutaly.. he can nicely change frm one type of vocaling to the next .. i love it
Mikael's the best....genius musician and composer
that keyboard solo on My Time of Need was so beautiful
Angelos Antoniou agreee
Led Zeppelin - No Quarter influenced
Joakim is amazing, what a player and what a delight as a backing vocalist as well!
It's sick how the concert starts out with sunlight and progresses into darkness and the night, Opeth live is the best.
I`m afraid there`s not even single one bad musician in Scandinavia. What an art!
Maybe because it´s cold and dark outside. They have to stay inside and make music to avoid sickness from the dark winter…. :-) or it´s because the school system is more focused on music than ones in other countries. Who knows?
@@thomasschemer711 I heard thanks to all the high taxes over there, no sense trying to find a good job and get ahead because the government won't let you excel, so the only good way out is the arts.

I want to see Opeth live at least once before I die. Such a great band
I saw them for the first time in February 2020 in Maryland. They played my old favorite track, too. I hope you get to see them
@@spund209 haha they just announced a tour with Mastodon and they're coming to my city!!
saw them at the Fillmore Detroit they played Hex Omega and the guitars were just swirling around the whole place it was incredible
I just saw them and yeah super fucking amazing band man dont miss out

You guys can stand up to any band in the world,I saw Ozzy in 83,and I'm enjoying this concert even more, makes me mad how you think your songs aren't as good, your a genius, hello wake up🤭🤘
I will never stop loving opeth

And shes defenitly right, opeth has a massive variaty of sounds from folk,death to progressive not to mention medival dark vibe to it and lately they experimented with jazz sounds.

Lol wut
You don’t like what they’re playing now just keep listening to their recordings. That’s why they make them.
does your art teacher have a boyfriend
@@meshzzizk otherwise u r gonna propose her? 😎
Any set with Deliverance on it, is a good set
That's what he's sayin' :P
which is literally every set
A primeira vez que me mostraram um vídeo desse cara cantando ao vivo eu tinha 15 anos, agora perto dos 30 ainda fico MUITO impressionada.
@Renan Oliveira : ) simm
Opeth changed my life and the way i listen to music. I had never fully paid attention to a +10 minutes song until i found these people... And then i found Steven Wilson, holy shit.
What a stunning drummer! A machine, indeed.
...Alex "Axe" Axenroth!
The passage from "Cusp of eternity" to "Heir Apparent" is always orgasmic
That's Brilliant. That's Opeth. Love how they go to the white lights for Heir Apparent too. Spooky contrast..
No that's fuckin brilliant ⚡
Best thing ever
fo sho
You spoilered me, I'm just in cusp of eternity
"at the end of this song I'm going to sleep" I said to myself. 12 minutes passed already and not only I can't stop listening to Opeth but the same song. not only a combination of riffs, rhytm and lyric, thing they play is a journey , that's why I'm a faithful fan of this guys. Cheers
I am very lucky I got to see Opeth Live in Zagreb on 26th September this year! And later I found out that Waltteri from Bodom After Midnight is their drummer! Wow!
...what, you watched them live & didn't know that's a new drummer around?
I've seen Opeth live three times and by god, I intend to tenfold that number as long as I breathe.
sorceress is just such a great opener...amazing that they can sound as good or better in live performance....they must have a great tech team....

Just discovered Bloodbath. My only regret was never heard of them earlier. Great Band.

Not rivaling Cardiacs tho. But yes. One of the very bests.
@@ondrejnemec8936 Cardiacs and Opeth are my two fav bands! Tim and Mikael and kindred spirits..two absolute natural musical geniuses. Love them both!
The growls are back !
The clean vocals are great as always, btw
I'm still amazed at how he do those growls and look so unaffected!
Mikael grunts like it’s just whispering, there’s just no special face of something just like it’s the most normal thing in the word hahaha love them
thank you Opeth for being REAL! One of the few bands that can get you in a trance!
This is the best live performance I've seen from Opeth in a long time
Best band on the planet IMO.
Bleak5170 why
abso-fucking-lutely. Being a songwriter I respect the hell out of their compositions. I really and truly love this band.
EVER!!!
Debatable
Mmm I just remind you that Dream Theater still there hahahah
One of the only underground bands where i actually "love" the keyboards.... opeth really know how use them in their music.... love it!!!
Those vocal harmonies.. beautiful ! Terrific band

Mike is the man! What he says and what he does is pure art. After a while not listening to Opeth, I remembered why I love this band so much.
Моя любимая группа 😘😘😘
I miss going to concerts :( Glad we at least have these awesome performances available online
The most effortless growls in metal. 🤘🏻🖤
The more I listen to this music, the more I like it.
Black Sabbath and Deep Purple had a viking baby who grew up listening to prog!
This band is unique and everything at the same time🤘

I was there. Brutal.
They are AMAZING !
When you go the long way with Opeth, like I do, it´s amazing how the old and new stuff work together live. Fuckin great Opeth!
In my time of need. Que pieza más hermosa.
That feeling you get when you know something is gonna be unworldly badass before you even start listening for the first time...
The keyboard swells at the very end of Deliverance were spot on
This works as meditation for me. Absolutely gorgeous, genius musicians. Thank you. :)
Cusp of eternity sounds really incredible. I really want to see this band live.
Perfect sound, poor executions (many timing errors), but still they recovered pretty nice
O início foi todo cagado kkkk mas a música é maravilhosa.
man the way martin lets all his right hand fingers hang instead of glueing them to his pickups or one string looks so classy
What a fantastic band! What a great concert! And what an incredible drummer! 🌹
"Axe" he's a great drummer!
Now they've changed - I don't understand why..?
Melhor banda da atualidade.
only svalberg could fit that kind of keyboard sound with this heavy music
Great opening with Sorceress! 🤘🏼
regardless of me being mainly a death metaller, In my time of need is my favorite opeth song
Opeth never stop evolving more and more, Greetings from México 🤘🏻🔥
as an opeth fan from the very start, who listened to a bootleg tape of black rose immortal basically nonstop on my bus ride to school, i LOVED damnation, and can't believe anyone thinks it sucks
Same here.
Dude sorcress is such a great opener to their concerts
Opeth simply brilliant, best band I've ever saw and I did see a lot of the classics 😉
Love his dark sense of humour :) ..... had the lucky chance to watch them live in my country ..... CHILE ..... never expected that miracle ......
Просто шедеврально!!! Микаэль, Фредрик и Экс мега-таланты! Hail Opeth!!!
Respect for the drummer and the keyboardist

That fucking transition from Cusp of Eternity to Heir Apparent is so fucking good.
whenever i listen to opeth i imagine someone listening to them for the first time. always magical
Damnation album,what a masterpiece
Once again respect for the keyboards
Heir apparent. Great song!
Brilliant band
I love the mix. The guitars are so crunchy and I love how prominent the keys are.
Despite the fact that Mikael is a god, I feel that the rest of the band should get way more credit than what they actually have
Anyone else think that Sorceress was a masterpiece? I felt that any shit talk that album got was completely unjustified, every song is gold and can bring me to tears! People bitch about the death metal being gone... not an issue I can listen to other death metal to get me fix for that!
Sorceress and In Cauda are both brilliant albums.
Recently got a copy of Heritage. Man what a strange album I keep repeating the 15 minute to 32 minute mark. Songs like Nax whatever that song is Naxthine. " Opeth doing Spryo the Dragon instrumentals "
Nepethne!!!

Love the drummer's King Diamond T-shirt!!!
His vocals are spot on. Love it when bands actually sound as good or better than studio.
They could essentially record this gig as a studio record its so tight and well-played.
Mikael akelferdt is a genius
I know about this band for at least 15 years, its time i give them a proper listen, this shit is wicked good.
This guy should do stand up comedy.
13:30 this growl makes me goosebumps
Incredible performance. Opeth still have the same class and sounds of tranquility and wisdom.
I saw them play most of this set live in Philadelphia during this tour on May 6th. Fucking sick. Ghost, Demon gave me fuckin chills. First time I'd ever heard Deliverance too and it blew my mind.... now it's one of my favorite songs!
Espectacular Opeth ¡¡¡
My favorite metal band!!
I missed some overtones. But Åkerfeldt's growl is really getting better.
It's amazing how effortlessly he pulls out those growls. It's like as if he speaks.
that's how it should be, the same with singing, basically
It's a microphone effect.
ATageH Oh, very clever then.
What?
The performance of Era is unique, love the drums, the bass, all of it, best song from Sorceress!!
Great! I love them for still playing the old stuff :D Their setlist was a nice mix between new and old.
Didn't know they're still Opeth, thought they renamed in The Martin Mendez Band
I see what you did here XD
how did this meme even start?
Uruguayan power .. whiet rocks
Love the transition from Cusp of Eternity to Heir Apparent
i just love how mikael does stand-up comedy between songs
Simplesmente sensacional!!!
Opeth still have to offer more in modern metal/rock music, hope I 'll be around to see what they are up to!
How old are ye?
