| ______________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:14am - blue ""] BOOOOOOOOOOOOOpeth |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:19am - KeithMutiny ""] hmm, i thought that happened like 4 years ago |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:20am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Not this flyer... |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:30am - KeithMutiny ""] like Opeth really needs anymore help being gay |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:33am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Hahah, touche my friend. Touche. I just threw the promo out back in the woods near my house. Threw it good and far. Wonder if it landed on Load and Re-Load, if some chipmunk hasn't made a nest of them yet. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:49am - SacreligionNLI ""] They're wicked wicked good though...why talk shit about them when it's the label's decision to do that because that's what they do? |
| ____________________________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:51am - Spaldino on a fucking mac... lame ""] what? are you guys hopped up on goofballs or something? Opeth outclasses you guys twenty-fold. im seriously ashamed that you like metal. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:52am - Anthony nli ""] I like Opeth, not that much, but I do like them and I like the new album too... but this flyer makes them seem really obnoxious |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:52am - DEATH2ALL ""] If you subtract the words, it's still a gay looking picture. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:54am - SacreligionNLI ""] meh |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:56am - DeOdiumMortis ""] That lawn looks wicked comfortable. And COMFORT IS NOT METAAAALL!!!!!!! |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:56am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Noone's disagreeing with you Sac, they're the HOTTEST NEW METAL SENSATION SINCE SLIPKNOT! |

| _____________________________ [Aug 2,2005 1:02am - cav ""] oh man, the slipknot thing kills me, goddamnit if that cd doesnt kick the most ass im gonna kill myself. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 1:03am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] It doesn't kick ass. So get a head start. |
| ___________________________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 1:04am - Spaldino on a fucking mac... lame ""] it does kick ass if you actually listen to the music and look for quality musicianship and song writing capabilities... you now... the things that actually matter. |
| _____________________________ [Aug 2,2005 1:05am - blue ""] quality musicianship aside....i still dont dig them. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 1:17am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Spaldino on a fucking mac... lame said:it does kick ass if you actually listen to the music and look for quality musicianship and song writing capabilities... you now... the things that actually matter. I did listen to the music. I liked a few parts of 'Baying of the Hounds' and 'Atonement', and the rest bores the fuck out of me so I got rid of my promo. 'Quality musicianship and song writing capabilities' are subjective terms, just because you say they are such does not mean it is true, or that everyone else will agree. Over an hour of boring filler is what I heard. And even if it was the 2nd coming of Mozart, it still doesn't make this flyer any less gay. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 1:30am - Niccolai ""] I've been warning you all about Opeth for years and look what happened. Kindof funny though, One day they have juggalofest and they need to clean the place up real quick so they can have Opeth fest the next day. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 1:32am - davefromthegrave ""] When did they become a 5-piece? |
| ___________________________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 3:24am - Spaldino on a fucking mac... lame ""] after damnation... they picked up a synth player. the new album is much deeper and has a lot more going on. a lot of traditional prog elements in the mix as well as covering a broader range of the emotional spectrum. if Yes became metal, they might sound sort of like the new Opeth... and everyone knows that Yes is and has been a superior band for a long time. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 4:43am - BestialOnslaught ""] I wish OPETH was coming to a Hot Topic around here so I could go make fun of them. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 6:44am - sinistas ""] This is a photoshop, btw |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 6:49am - slowlypeelingtheflesh ""] I really hope this isnt real |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 8:42am - largefreakatzero ""] They look thensitive. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 8:49am - Sinislazy ""] slowlypeelingtheflesh said:I really hope this isnt real Again, it's a photoshop that some guy on the Opeth boards made |
| __________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 9:17am - dreadkill ""] seriously, anyone who thinks that flyer is real needs a helmet on their head and a drool basket. |

Opeth is nowhere near Yes. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 9:55am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] What I'm thinking is the ad may have been a legit photoshop that popped up, and someone PS'd the Slipknot comparison right under it. Either way, it's funny as all hell. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:34am - Jesus_Slaves ""] people are unbelievable. are you really going to change your opinion of the almighty Opeth, who i might add have released 7 of the most amazing albums ever created, solely because they have an advertisement at Hot Topic? they dont know what the fuck Hot Topic is. in essence, they are a hot topic. i saw an Emperor shirt at hot topic. who gives a fuck. funny how "fans" IMMEDIATELY talk shit the MOMENT they do something that by american standards is lame. fucking pathetic. |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:36am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Who said any of us were changing our opinion? "7 of the most amazing albums ever created". That's a laugh. |

Naw man, I hated Opeth BEFORE it was cool. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:40am - Sinislazy ""] OK, once again, the whole ad is a photoshop of a promo pic from RR's website. |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:43am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Regardless of who made the ad, it's still funny, that's the only reason I posted it, for a few laughs. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:43am - Jesus_Slaves ""] oh wait you are right. they are untalented, unable to carry a tune, unable to write music, they cant play their instruments, they write nothing but lame boring music with no solid structure. i guess i just missed that on the last 7 albums. oh wait, nope their suckiness is based on a Hot Topic flyer. |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:45am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Oh wait, you are misquoting me! 1. I never said they were untalented. 2. I never said they were unable to carry a tune. 3. I never said they were unable to write music. 4. I never said they can't play their instruments. 5. I never said they write music with no solid structure. 6. I never said they sucked, or that their suckiness is based on a Hot Topic flyer. Thanks for all those implied words that I never even said... |

And yes they are capable musicians, but not so much that they deserve as much sucking up as they get |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:51am - Josh_Martin ""] Opeth is fucking gay. That is all. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:58am - dan_bloodblister ""] Josh_Martin said:Opeth is fucking gay. That is all. here, here! |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 10:59am - RichHorror ""] Yeah, if you've been listening to Opeth for any real amount of time you more than likely already have full-blown AIDS by now. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 11:08am - KillerKadoogan ""] Yes, they are talented. They can play circles around me. Does that mean I have to like them? No. |
| _____________________________ [Aug 2,2005 11:23am - Eli ""] From BLABBERMOUTH.NET: <<<<Independent label powerhouses Ferret Music, Prosthetic Records, Trustkill Records and Metal Blade Records, along with sponsors Music Choice, Revolver, PureVolume.com and Hot Topic have joined together with 18 of the hottest bands in the metal and hardcore scenes to present the Sounds of the Underground Tour 2005. The tour is scheduled to run June 25 through the end of July. The Sounds of the Underground will be an all-day event with music starting each day at noon and will be held in both indoor and outdoor venues in the U.S. and Canada. Confirmed bands: CLUTCH POISON THE WELL OPETH UNEARTH FROM AUTUMN TO ASHES CHIMAIRA NORMA JEAN EVERY TIME I DIE STRAPPING YOUNG LAD THROWDOWN HIGH ON FIRE DEVILDRIVER ALL THAT REMAINS A LIFE ONCE LOST A special half-time performance will be made by GWAR mid-way thru the show.>>>> So if you like any of those other bands, then they're gay now too. Seriously though, besides the fact that I dont really like any of those bands (though I saw Strapping Young Lad open for Testament in 1997 at the Middle East and they werent that bad), HOT TOPIC is a lame hang out for mall-goths and trendies, but it's true that it's not the bands decision wether their tour is sponsored by Hot Topic, becuase they signed a contract with a label and after that they're owned. And I also think Opeth is really fucking boring, but thats just my opinion. |
| _____________________________ [Aug 2,2005 11:28am - Eli ""] And didnt Cluth open for Maiden at the Orpheum on the EdHunter tour in 99? Maybe it's a different band, but if it's the same one, they sounded more like hardrock then any kind of metal/hardcore that would fit on that tour. |
| _____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 11:36am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Clutch and High on Fire are totally gay...but so am I, so I still like them. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 11:44am - dan_bloodblister ""] hot topic used to sell immortal shirts, but i dont like immortal any less |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 11:59am - davefromthegrave ""] I like Opeth |
| __________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:20pm - Niccolai ""] I don't like immortal in the first place, but the point stands. The fact that Hot Topic sells the red chord shirts doesn't mean I don't like the red chord anymore with the flick of a switch. But if Red chord organized parties at hot topic like 'the gathering of the Juggalos' I would definately lose respect and I might quite possably beat dan_bloodblister with a frozen stick of salami until he submits to my superiority. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:41pm - Jesus_Slaves ""] that was directed at fans of Opeth who now talk shit because they are at Hot Topic. believe it or not, i wasnt speaking directly to you. so thanks for all those words that you imply are directed specifically at you. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 2,2005 12:58pm - dan_bloodblister ""] hey niccolai [img] |
