I don't get the hate for his vocals. They're a different band and have been using his voice for like 7 albums now. I think he has a good 70s prog voice which is a style they've taken on. The newest album gets me pumped, it' one of my favs this year.

Bought new cd the other day. Its better than the last two, still nowhere near their best. I dig it. Nothing will ever touch trve 70s prog because frankly, it had to be made in the 70s, but I still like to hear a valiant attempt these days.

No idea. All The Sinclair announced was that all their shows up to a certain date were to be moved due to construction not being finished.

I would be going to see Torche there(go ahead, hate) but they moved it to the Royale.

I may be seeing Titus Andronicus there later this month though, because I love me some Neutral Milk Hotel worship, so i'll let you guys know the quality of the venue.

what was your joke?

Don't care about this show at all. Would possibly care if they screened the academy award winning major motion picture "Black Metal" while Paul Bearer was encased in a concrete tomb.

I'm not entirely sure the same Pallbearer is doing the Black Metal soundtrack. Logo is different and the clip from the trailer doesn't really sound like them. I could probably look it up to confirm but I'm blocked from a lot of the net at work and don't really care.

[Feb 22,2013 10:33am - chrisREX ""]
It was a great set, but it got cut short by a one or two songs. Convoys of Nothingness(!!!!) and Allfağr Oğinn were clearly the highlights of the set. If they had played As Fire Swept Clean the Earth like they do other nights, it would of been perfect. They have a pretty crazy amount of material to choose from these days.

I like the Sinclair. Sounded good. I was watching the show from the balcony that hung over the sound booth. Lots of great spots to watch...unlike the Middle East, which is pretty much a hallway.

Opeth sounded like shit, but Enslaved sounded good, aside from the awful vocals.
 ___________________________________
[Feb 22,2013 10:44am - chrisREX ""]
I had the opposite reaction. That House of Blues show had my least favorite Enslaved set and one of the best Opeth sets. Mostly because they played a lot of old material.
 _________________________________
[Feb 22,2013 10:46am - Burnsy ""]
I thought Opeth's sound was phenomenal that night. I just wish Akerfeldt would've shut the fuck up for two seconds. Dude loves the sound of his own voice.
 ________________________________
[Feb 25,2013 3:23pm - Spence ""]
Opeth(seen six times) and Enslaved(only saw the once, sadly) were both great that night, and both had amazing sound quality as well. I remember wishing that Enslaved's set was longer though.


chrisREX said:It was a great set, but it got cut short by a one or two songs. Convoys of Nothingness(!!!!) and Allfağr Oğinn were clearly the highlights of the set. If they had played As Fire Swept Clean the Earth like they do other nights, it would of been perfect. They have a pretty crazy amount of material to choose from these days.



Sounds excellent. Wish I could've went. Are they still doing a black metal cover of the Immigrant Song live, or was that a last-tour exclusive thing?

Also, how did you like Pallbearer live?


I like the Sinclair. Sounded good. I was watching the show from the balcony that hung over the sound booth. Lots of great spots to watch...unlike the Middle East, which is pretty much a hallway.



Nice. How big was the balcony and the general standing area?

If you could believe it, there was a time when the man was extremely humble and would barely utter any words between songs. Opeth, to me, was the type of band that shouldn't have any in-between banter or even announce song titles. The songs performed live should have just flowed right into one another.

They've put on some of the most entertaining and memorable live sets out of all the shows I've been to.

Last time I saw Enslaved was with Alcest. Enslaved performed very well but Alcest stole the show, in my opinion.

I'm sure you remember 10+ years ago when no one paid attention to opeth and everyone would chatter during their softer parts and in between songs. Mikeal would barely speak; not many people knew who they were.

Well of course. Alcest are absolutely amazing and while i'm at it, I really like Junius as well. I wish I didn't miss the commuter rail from Worcester that night, three bands I really wish I could've seen. (Edit to add: even worse was the fact I had already purchased two tickets to the show that ultimately went to waste)

I love Opeth. I don't care if people think Opeth suck now or always sucked or whatever. All their albums are great IMO. Even my least favorite albums, Blackwater Park and Deliverance, are still pretty good compared to a lot of the stuff other bands release.
