Oh, Piggy; seriously?!

That wasn't the greatest song ever, but it was really fucking good.

Great opening intro but after a few minutes I lose interest.

I have a feeling this is what's going to happen when we hear new Tool for the first time. We'll compare it to previous works and it will obviously be a lot worse, at first. Let this song grow on you, i've listened to this song for 2 hours now and I think it's fantastic. But maybe that's just me :roll:

If you have to listen to something for 2 hours to convince yourself it's good, well . . .

New song is tight. Akerfeldt sounds great. Love the prog vibe. Respect how they keep trying different things musically. Good shit

Yep. Sorry. This song felt like it was never going to end then I noticed it was less than 6 minutes long.

This coming from someone whose favorite Opeth song is Black Rose Immortal.

Don't set the bar too high with RP. His favorite bands/artists are Tool and Fiona Apple......Explains a lot when you think about it.

I've had this song in my head since I first heard it. I love it. Also worth mentioning that the production is absolutely fantastic.

New song is completely disappointing and boring. Mastodon has done better than this. The jugband-washboard-knee slapping song my friends and I wrote this weekend is better than this. We too also play metal and prog. Oh and Classical. And I think I may have recorded a hip hop song or two.

Anyway, Opeth has and always will be 'meh'. I have seen them live 4x before, and about 45 minutes into their set I decide to sit down and take a train to sleepytown.

But seriously, I did fall asleep everytime I saw Opeth.

And seriously, I can't believe you fell for the bait.

And seriously, If I farted on a recorded believe me that shit will sound good!

Seriously, Mog - cut it out.

You're out of line. And I'm one of your few fans here in this forum.

I'm in the "That's pretty killer" camp on this one. I don't understand how the vocals "annoyed the shit out of" you Piggy, but there goes that subjectivity thing again...

Akerfeldt's "clean" voice is very dreamy IMO. I am stoked that he seems to be eschewing the cookie monster vox (I know this belongs in the Unpopular Opinions thread around here).

The music is not by any means groundbreaking, but why does it have to be? It's a solid song, with great vocals and an excellent, inventive solo. Production kicks major arse UKE. (it's Steven Wilson, so, Natch!)

Have a nice day! (See, I listened Crow.) :D

I love Opeth, I just didn't like the song. I'm not the only one who disliked it why is mine being singled out?

At least I explained why and didn't just call it crap or spmething.

Exactly! But I wasn't calling you out. I was responding and letting you know I didn't share the opinion. You know, a discussion?

We can do that, so let's continue to do that. Besides, it will piss off the trolls that we can have a reasonable discussion without name calling.

So, about the vocals... elaborate. How do you perceive them differently than previous clean vocal Opeth tracks? It's not like it's the first time he's used that style.

Kitty: Yep, spot on.

Piggy: I get what you're saying. At least you were articulate.

I just think you're wrong. :D
