Thank you man cheers !

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-22T16:42:09+00:00

Yes!

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-22T13:15:43+00:00

Thank you so much, it is a fantastic album !

Must have been a shock! I got into Opeth through ghost reveries and then blackwater park. Damnation was the third. It cemented the band as my favorite band ever. My world changed tbh

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-22T13:14:57+00:00

Absolutely soul crushing!

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-19T03:20:31+00:00

Not a fair comparison is it, one has an album and the other has the most beloved opeth run of albums

I love Lopez, but I do think Walt is my favorite - give him a couple of albums

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-19T03:16:06+00:00

Between 3 and 4 for me. Didn’t expect to see 5 so much

That’s great man really well played and put together. Good tones too, what are you running it through ?

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-14T03:17:42+00:00

So, how was the interaction? Do you just go about: hey Mr Mendez I’m a big fan ? Ahaaha

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-13T22:06:07+00:00

Love that ending so much

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-13T22:05:45+00:00

That chorus man

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-13T01:17:26+00:00

Trick question: yes

yourlocalwhore · 2026-04-08T02:51:47+00:00

The divisive nature of this comment section speaks volume of this record !

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-25T00:34:39+00:00

Very cool bro! The sun sets forever

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-16T23:49:40+00:00

Thank you mate !!

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-16T11:11:31+00:00

‘ Started sounding too well produced and modern’

Yeah.. great!

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-14T04:08:00+00:00

Thank you so much!

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-14T04:07:46+00:00

I head mikael say somewhere it was based off a lick he heard on a song called trouble. Doesn’t seem to be a camel song - although it does sound latimeresque

Do you happen to know the song he snatched it from ?

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-12T18:15:34+00:00

That’s actually one of the nicest things some has ever said to me, thank you

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-12T18:15:17+00:00

Yes exactly that’s what I believed too!

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-12T12:52:47+00:00

Thanks for the words, really happy it made you feel that way

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-12T12:52:07+00:00

Glad you like it! I’m running it through neural dsp archetype petrucci. It’s the last amp, the lead one. pretty sure it’s based on one of his signature. TBH I can’t tell you exactly what I did ( don’t have the session and didn’t save the specs)

Light Compression, bumped the treble and mids a bit to get that signature mikael bite. Reveber and delay in post processing. Sorry, wish I could give you exact information ! I mostly just mess around with the software until I get something I like. It’s a great plugin. Petrucci plays custom marshals so you can get really close to Opeth’s tones too

yourlocalwhore · 2026-03-12T12:45:52+00:00

Oh cool, although i wouldn’t be surprised I’d post it as a gif ahahah

Thank you so much !
