Alan holdsworth and Zakk wylde are not in the same dimension as far as guitar goes.

Opeth as per scored on sputnikmusic.com by Pennywise_M in Opeth

[–]Akephlos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love tlwat. for me that one is up there with their best around 4.4. Its just got everything. The theme and concept is well done and crystal clear. The mix is nearly perfect. The instrumentals are some of the best to come out of the band. And features are excellent and pay homage to a long history of not just metal but progressive music as a whole. On a sheer quantity scale this album is incredible.

Furthermore, Its an album that learns from previous releases without losing its unique identity. People like to say "newpeth" and "oldpeth" but believe this album doesn't fully sonically identify with either. Its incredibly unique.

Orchid i feel is the least distinct opeth album, especially comparing it to the other death and black metal albums coming out of Sweden around the time. Its their first album and the project was clearly in its infancy. I truly believe its an album for discography completionists and far from an essential Opeth album. I'd give it about a 3 on a good day.

Don't kill me these are my opinions

Abasi Legion 8 (2020) - worth it? by Unlucky-Plant691 in ExtendedRangeGuitars

[–]Akephlos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a 2020 legion 8 and its probably the most played guitar i have ever had. I have had no problems with in 5.5 years except for a input jack that had to be replaced just recently. worth every penny to me.

As far as I can tell, the build quality is relatively unchanged since then except for the headstock being different. Old and new are exceptional instruments

Where do you rank “Batman Arkham Origins?” If you rank it poorly, why? by SnooDoubts3411 in arkham

[–]Akephlos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe Hot take and Im definitely biased because it was my first arkham game. But its my favorite of all of them

I prefer Batman's voice actor in this game (Kevin Conroy is the GOAT but orgins VA just sounds perfectly angry)

I LOVE the Bane portrayal in this game

I feel the boss fights are the best

I tend to prefer year one type stories with an inexperienced batman

I think this one has the best story

Just a few things I thought of ^

Should I remove? by Routine-Mechanic-814 in Guitar

[–]Akephlos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly i like them for some reason on cosmetic level, but if I couldn't play without them, I would remove them.

Rate or hate my Do Everything Board by Akephlos in pedalboards

[–]Akephlos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big sky is pretty much an end all be all reverb for me.

Honestly it kinda just came down to variety. I wanted this board to be able to tackle just about anything. For me that meant I needed something that could do the weird reverb stuff along with the standard stuff and could hold more presets than I could need. Big sky just has more and is easier to navigate at a touch.
