i think they are not that bad as a band, but most of their newer fans are stupid and i highly doubt if they actually understand the music, they just listen to opeth as they are hyped.
it's pretty much the same with dream theater sometimes i guess... _________________ Taphephobia Productions

I like the first three albums and their acoustic material. If you think I'm gay for that then that's your problem. They're not a personal favourite of mine and I am no way a 'fan' but I can still enjoy some of their material.
Also how do you have a rational arguement about personal taste? You either like it or you don't. I have friends who listen to the gayest music possible but it doesn't stop them from being mates. |

Dream Theater - 30-40 year Berkeley graduates and a bunch of Christian pussies
same goes for opeth... incredibly boring, uninteresting band. Bleak, dull and weak music. at least to me. |

I like their acoustic album only. I got orchid almost the day it was released and throw it to a friend for a couple of dimes, what a boring album. I also got morningrise somewhere in a trade lot but I probably listened to it once. _________________

The only good thing about Opeth is their insignia done by Timo K. |

Well I remember our discussion on msn a while ago about 'gay' music.
Anyway I listen to bands that are no doubt considered 'gay' (Opeth being one of them, and probably Caina to some of you fella's , M83, The Smiths, Joy Division, Death in June (in that case quite literally 'gay'. Haha))
Also small side note, but has ANYONE actually come up with a good anti-Opeth comment here other than "They're boring", "They're shit", "They're gay" etc. Basically what you'd expect, all of which are statements based on an OPINION. |

So this topic is dedicated for developing some good arguments (in the context of metal and how Opeth does not fall in it, etc), not opinions.
Example:
-You like last Death albums? And lyrics??! You are a christian, eat a cock.
Not an opinion, but fact. _________________ http://www.nekrokatarsis.org/en/
