[QUOTE="Opethian, post: 21336102, member: 136057"] Opeth is the most talented band in all of metal, and possibly all of music, today. They transcend genres, and compose epic, beautiful music that feel like a story unfolding in your mind. The emotions they can associate inside their complicated riffery and wall of sound are just amazing. As for being satanic, I wouldn't even care if they were, and they [b]aren't[/b]! I'm pretty sure the entire band is atheistic, and I've seen them live, they don't try to act like they're the "666 death metal pwnzors evil satanists", in fact, Mikael Akerfeldt would put up quite a performance as a standup comedian. They're all in it for the music, and nothing but the music, and the music they make is utterly magnificent! I bet you've never read any metal lyrics besides the ones specifically chosen out by your local religious scarecrow. Get a clue. Listening to music and agreeing with the lyrics are something entirely else. Besides, I think agreeing to the lyrics of a lot of pop/techno/rap music would be much worse than agreeing to those of a lot of death/black metal. A lot of death/black metal releases are concept albums which revolve around a story. You should really read the lyrics to "Edge Of Sanity's" "Crimson II" and "Crimson". Excellent stuff! Get a clue! Most metal music, including Opeth, does not worship the devil! Only in your mind it does! Slayer doesn't even worship the devil!!! At least metal music is intellectually satisfying, unlike any other genre I can think off, except some progressive music and classical music. You just keep dumbing down yourself with the sort of stuff you listen to, and your braindamaging religion, and stay out of the business of people that enjoy music on a much higher level. Man you really have a wild imagination! What next, set the oil on fire? Jesus, brainwashing is way too effective... [/QUOTE]
