So an original take on vintage prog rock is selling out today? And an artist can have the liberty to make a changing of sound/orientation.

Moreover it's really deep DEATH metal, all their riff have much more imagination than a lot of metal bands, their songs are intensely worked and they are masters in the srtuctures art. For me, Opeth touches to the perfection.

That's basically how I see them too.  One of the main problems with death metal is the forced-sounding aggression and repetitiveness.  I think of Opeth as a band that writes brilliant, detailed music that naturally flows from death metal to acoustic rock.  Their song writing really sets them apart.

because I have good taste in music and I can distinguish good death metal from bad death metal.


All tongue in cheek sarcasm aside, I love both metal and death metal like a tooth loves drills but Opeth are no more and no less than a modern eclectic rock band surely?
