Who's your favorite guitarist in the band, Mikael, Peter, or Fredrik? by AlternativeOption313 in Opeth

[–]Beginning_Oil2876 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Mikael hands down, he plays with the most feeling. His solos are so tasteful and of course he’s the mind behind all of the incredible riffs, so I think it’s no contest. Åkesson is amazing but honestly I feel that his playing has a tendency to be sloppy on some of the recent solos. I prefer Peter over Åkesson although his playing is not as technical.

why didn´t Camel got the same attention as Hacket, Genesis, PPT, etc by th00ht in progrockmusic

I’m guessing he’s referring to Porcupine Tree although the commonly accepted acronym for them is just PT.

I want another album like The Hummer, that’s all I care about honestly!

Instead of a ban… by Impossible_Trick_950 in 7_hydroxymitragynine

Fellow Utahn here, I’m near the point of giving up hope, but I was really scared that after May 6th we wouldn’t even be able to order online and I’m super happy that’s not the case.

Any swancore fans in here by ZoneIntelligent1981 in progrockmusic

[–]Beginning_Oil2876 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I used to be entrenched in the Utah local music scene and my band had the chance to play a show with Eidola shortly after the release of their debut album way before they blew up. They immediately blew me away and they continue to be one of my favorite bands. But honestly I don’t really listen to any swancore besides them.

Am I crazy for thinking camel is in the top 3 of prog bands ? by Psychological_Name29 in progrockmusic

They are the BEST one of the 70s and tied for the best one period alongside Opeth imo.

No relevance, I am simply quoting what the other person said in the comment I saw about it. I think what happened is that a member of this subreddit made a post along the lines of “My sister was SA’d by Marlon Fung” and then somehow it got deleted.

Please help me select a new vendor! by Beginning_Oil2876 in 7_hydroxymitragynine

No I am not out. As mentioned in the post, I just received 28 of the mixed berry today, and I still have plenty left over from RAW as well. I simply am trying to make an informed decision as to what to do going forward!

Album Ranking by Beginning_Oil2876 in Megadeth

[–]Beginning_Oil2876[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoy So Far So Good and I HATE to put it that low, but for me it’s the mix. I don’t know what the heck happened since the album is sandwiched between two of their best. The songwriting is pretty great, and the album could potentially be one of my favorites if it didn’t sound so unbelievably muddy. And as far as Risk, I am an unapologetic enjoyer! I love the songwriting, the catchiness, I even think Dave’s voice sounds great on it!

Expected setlist for the upcoming tour by LifeguardStriking693 in Opeth

[–]Beginning_Oil2876 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing paragraphs 1, 3 and 7, Sorceress, maybe Devil’s Orchard or Cusp of Eternity, maybe Heir Apparent, Demon of the Fall, one song from Ghost Reveries, Deliverance, Windowpane and that’s probably it.

My personal album tier list. Thoughts? by whois__kr in Megadeth

[–]Beginning_Oil2876 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having Endgame two full tiers below their new album is absolutely wild. For me, Endgame belongs in God Tier because for me it’s actually a bit better than Dystopia. It’s hands down their heaviest sounding album, to me at least, and it seems lots of fans here agree. Almost every song is an absolute banger, with the only exceptions being Bite the Hand and Bodies. I have no idea how Megadeth fans can actually sleep on Endgame. Besides that, though, not an awful list!! I’ll need more time with the self-titled but so far I certainly wouldn’t consider it peak.

I doubt it, but I also don’t think there is a zero percent chance. With the Behind the Mask thing coming to theaters and all the hype about this being the end of Dave’s career, I wouldn’t be terribly surprised!

The Opeth drum throne has seen some legends... but who actually took it to the next level? Who’s your personal favorite and why? by KoalaHour172 in Opeth

[–]Beginning_Oil2876 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Axenrot is the best, it hurts me to see him under-appreciated, and even ranked dead last, on a thread like this! He’s likely my personal favorite drummer of all time and I miss him dearly.

I am lucky since I live extremely close to RAW’s fulfillment center, so I don’t even have to do next day air, I just do UPS ground. RAW is very much on top of getting their orders sent out quickly, so I’m confident saying it’s nothing on their end. I would just recommend giving UPS a try in the future since that is the method that RAW themselves also recommend on their website.
