I notice a difference between the guitars, a lot of the time it sounds normal or better but in a few spots on Synchestra it's kind of annoying.

Devin.

Mikael & the rest of the Opeth "krew" are all good musicians, sure as shit, but they can't write a good cohesive song to save their life, really.

Devin, while being a good (and much more creative) musician, manages to be great in terms of songwriting too.

So Devin it is.

we're not talking about cohesion, we are talking about the one artist and anyway every song mikael has written is amazing.

devin owns mikael due to the fact that mikaels main band opeth aren't good, at all.

I find it impossible to believe people actually think any of the songs on Deliverance are amazing.

The title track is one of their best songs :blink:


As for the poll, I refuse to vote. I love Opeth, but I haven't listened enough to either of Devin's band to be able to compare the two, nevermind that their music is pretty uncomparable because of their difference.

imaginative, really imaginative.
you know what, i think someone should have a poll for who is more of a genius and you should be one of the options because you clearly have more imagination and creativity than any other person.

oh and no i won't shut the fuck up because forums are for discussing things, not for just tossing random abuse at people who disagree with you.

Shouldn't a half-joke be at least half-funny?

I dislike Husker because his senseless cool dogma conflicts with what I try to make senseless cool dogma.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

By the way, I disagree that Synchestra and Terria have the same "tone." I find Terria to be a lot more organic and fluid, while Synchestra has the same sort of wall of sound, million things happening at the same time production that SYL has.
