Heritage (2011)

Comentarios que uno de los periodistas hacia a medida que escuchaba el disco...

- “Really going classical with this piano intro.”

- “Upright bass, jazzy-style, really? Sweet. Will there be rockabilly?”

- “The Deep Purple-fan in me grins widely.”

- “Getting folky, Jethro Tully, I see what they’re doing.”

- “ORGANFLOODS OF THE APOCALYPSE!!!¤#”%!”!!”

- “Lots of haunting noises going on again…”

- “The production definitely old school yet clear and punchy, I can dig it.”

- “Man, 5 songs in and not a single growl.”

- “Mereckons however many death metal purists have stuck on board this far are jumping off at this pier.”

- “Well, this is really Opeth gone jazz.”

- “Thelonius Åkerfeldt…well, maybe not quite.”

- “Samples of speech and coughing…I say, ghostly again.”

- “Then perhaps instead Mikael Hancock…or maybe hand-in-cock if we asked him directly…”

- “Widdly widdly guitar antics still provided, flourishes of bongos, maybe djembes, percussionomics…”

- “FLUTES! YES!”

- “Now that’s a nice serving of gorgeous acoustic guitars…very, very fitting.”

To summarize to an extent…first off, there was not a single growl on the record. Death metal was just not on the menu for this one. Instead there was a barrage of groovy 70s influences from the haziness of Pink Floyd to the rocking of Rainbow. Yes, plenty of rocking going on, distorted guitars, epic riffage etc. The absence of guttural demonics has not led to a rerun of Damnation (for the uninitiated: it’s Opeth’s most “newagey”, soothing and non-distorted album). I repeat that the drenched-in-70s covers many, many aspects. Old school maniacs like myself will be ecstatic, methinks.


QUE GANAS QUE LE TENGO A ESTE DISCO DIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS

Reitero: Disco del año sin haberlo escuchado.

GEÑAL, VA A SER RE GÜITER RIPORT. AH, ME OLVIDABA, RECIÉN LEÍ QUE LA PRINCIPAL INFLUENCIA DE FREDRIK PARA ESTE DISCO FUE JEFF BECK

Bueno.

More details:
- No death metal growls. (OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG)
- 56 minutes long.
- First single: The Devil's Orchard.
- New keyboardist: Joakim Svalberg (Yngwie Malmsteen, Glenn Hughes).


Damnation 2 ????????????????????????

-Ya lo sabíamos.
-Opa, dato nuevo.
-Ya lo sabíamos.
-Ya lo sabíamos.

No, nada que ver con Damnation.

Ahora el lunes algunos britanicos se van a ganar un premio para una escuchada del disco en 5.1

Ojala alguien se trague un mp3 grabando y despues lo cague con al menos, un tema grabado
(o si lo puede hacer pasar de otra manera, mejor para el)


Mas info:


- "Heritage" is an instumental song, played by Joachim. It's a solo piano (like silhouette)
- "The Devil's Orchard" is the single of the album but, according to RockHard, it is not really formated for the radios...On the chorus, there is a very impressive passage where mike repeats "God is dead, God is dead, God is dead..."
- When mike starts to write the album, he composed 2 songs whith the "watershed style", but he deleted them and tried another direction with "The lines in my hand", wich is one of the most experimental track of the album.
- "Famine" featured Alex Acuna and Björn J:son Lindh with a very intense passage with flute + double bass
- "Marrow of the earth" is an instrumental song (como le pifiamos Nacho )
- According to RockHard, the album is very complex, it's very difficult to know what is the song that you are listenning in the tracklist
- According to Mike, the guitars used for the album are mostly fender Start and telecaster (but you can see Lespaul and PRS 245 on photos)
- According to RockHard Heritage sounds very psychedelic and experimental, each song is different, but the whole album is still very dark.
- According to Mike, heritage is not "vintage", it is just not a "clinic and cold" metal album. Opeth didn't want to use digital effects, the want natural sound of each instrument.
- Per has left the band because he is a frontman, and he didn't want to play Mike's music...

Tengo como miedo, lo pintan re bizzarro el disco.
Nose porque tengo la sensacion de que va a ser algo parecido al Insurgentes de SW.
Yo queria que hagan growls y heavy che, que lastima.

Teles y Fenders, doble bombo y flauta, flasheadas... va a ser un discón

Yo también. Eso de "psicodélico y experimental" me da como miedo y a la vez me intriga. No me imagino qué va a salir de ahi. Aunque trato de no hacerme mucha expectativa así cuando lo escucho me sorprenden.

Que copado que usen telecasters, son re feas, pero suenan hermoso, sobre todo el limpio. Hay unos videitos de Mike tocando The Drapery Falls cn Mendez y Peter, que tienen una Flying V y una Strato, y mendez tiene un Precision jajaj.
Se ve que quiere algo nuevo nuevo Mike.

A mi antes me parecían feas las teles, sobre todo el clavijero, pero ahora ando enamorado de su forma y su sonido, en un futuro me compraré alguna...

Segun Mikael, con un tema no podes saber como suena el disco ni en pedo... por eso estuvieron peleando con la discografica para no sacar ningun tema antes del lanzamiento del disco. Pero bueno, algo es algo

EDIT:

Se adelanto un dia, se estrena el miercoles que viene!

SHITTTT
donde sale?
en youtube como Dream ? o que onda?

http://www.mediafire.com/?9tjxwx4ggxxiiek

Por si no pueden esperar hasta mañana aprovechen antes de que lo borren

A primera escuchada... INCREIBLE
A ver si mejora en las siguientes...


NONO ESPERA QUE BUEN TEMA LA CONCHA DE LA LORA
Axe se paso de groso la verdad

¿Se acuerdan como lo bardeaba a Axe? Bueno, me tapó el culo



Nunca sonaron tan bien

Y la parte funk a lo Grand Funk Railroad pero en modo maligno, que cebada, como castiga el yorugua con el bajo

Señores, esto me dio una ereccion.

Es genial, es bien progresivo setentoso, impresionante la verdad.

Mike, lo hiciste de nuevo. Te amo.

ufff...papá!! que pedazo de tema!
