STILL LIFE

You know i always thought that opeth was nothing more than a death metal because of growls boy did that change when i got Still Life. The music on this cd is INCREDIBLE with great guitar solos and actually really great drum work. the growls gah it took me a while to get used them because i hate them so much but ya know what MIKAEL has got a BEAUUUUUUUTIFUL voice really took me by surprise. But anyway they do have some cool stuff in this album like awesome acoustic sections that sound like latin stuff, Great instrumental passage that sound very progressive, some death metal section but they do it all the way through like most death metal bands do, and dude this surprised me THEY'VE GOT FREAKIN JAZZ SOLO SECTIONS what death metal does that NO ONE LOL. this album convinced me that they are more than death metal they have great melodic sections and some cool jazzy breaks and awesome acoustic playing. so if you like Death metal sure good album for ya BUT if you hate death metal and growls and like proggy stuff well these guys are worth the buy. def. 4 stars for me man
