After listening to stuff like this....
I forgot all about Metallica

ooooof coooourse.
Can't have metal with out that shitty, guttural "singer".
Same problem i have with nearly all Metal bands. The guitar/drums are excellent, and then like clockwork, here comes that same shitty ass grunting from the lead singer to come and cock the whole thing up.
I've never heard of Opeth. I clicked play and heard EXACTLY what i thought i'd hear. Same ol', same ol' metal recipe.
This is why Metallica is iconic and bands like Opeth will never matter to anyone aside from pure metal-heads.
Guys like Corey Taylor and James Hetfield are rare birds that are able to transcend that guttural metal sound and create something that weaves between metal and melodic rock, which is something that most of these metal bands are unable to do, thus limiting them to only Metal-heads, and ultimately, making them all sound the ****ing same.
