I tell my mate's about Opeth but I get ignored. I'm cool with that because they're my thing. This also is my favourite goto heavy track, it has been for years. Enjoy. Kudos to the uploader.
The lyrics seem to have similar theme as in the songs by Avenged Sevenfold like Shepherd Of Fire and Nightmare i.e., description of the perspective of a person letting their evil side take over and commiting heinous act like murder. I, personally, interpret the lyrics as the protagonist as letting the ‘devil taking over them' having killed someone by drowning them and then having a painstaking feeling of guilt that follows, eating them from inside.
The title track of Opeth's sixth studio album, this song, along with several other of the tunes were inspired by a traumatic event that happened to the girlfriend of guitarist Peter Lindgren. Vocalist Mikael Åkerfeldt recalled to Billboard magazine: "She and a couple of her friends were kind of held hostage by some crazy guy. He locked them inside his apartment, they were partying or whatever, and he started cutting himself and telling them that he's going to kill them and stuff like that. It didn't end badly -- they got out of there -- but the guy was obviously some type of lunatic, so that inspired that lyric [for] 'Deliverance.'"
@@leviathandiabolo6296 I've picked up that much as well and the comments that were given out regarding the album. But have you ever tried listening to it as if the person being drowned and the one doing the murder are one and the same? Fits with lyrics and the general theme of personalities battling for control. For me personally it's exactly the way the song presents it. Each time my Jungian shadow takes control it feels as if it will be forever and the old self is drowned dead. But in time the ever present deliverance smiles at me and all that is left are scars of the previous persona as I do my best to piece my self together in a more productive and healthy way.
Do you mean like growling yourself or just enjoying the music ? Other dude said to just listen to Opeth and behemoth and I agree cause tbh I don’t really just enjoy growling in general but Opeth and behemoth are very enjoyable lol you just have to listen to stuff like this and not like infant annhilator 😂
@@t.hussain921 I got into Opeth first but I’m a huge tool fan so I prefer listening to songs that are extremely long like this. Behemoth is so dope though, I listened to them after getting into Opeth and the satanist is such a great album

An LSD trip
Opeth - Intervention
How do I get into growling?
Chin chin
It takes time. Try bands like Amon Amarth and Behemoth before Opeth
then listen to Opeth's Blackwater Park multiple times
