OPETH - Ghost of Perdition | First Time Reaction

[@BisscuteReacts]

Thank you for watching the video, It means a lot to me . I will leave this pinned message here to REMIND everyone that i do not have TELEGRAM and there is no GIVEAWAY. Those you see are bot scams . Keep yourself safe and know that I would not ask for your info. ❤ ❤

I was at this concert. The venue is Red Rocks Amphitheater. The date of the concert was May 11, 2017. I have to pinch myself sometimes to remind myself I was actually at this once-in-a-lifetime concert. Not only were the planets aligned for the venue and Opeth, but Gojira and Devin Townsend Project opened for Opeth as well. I remember the pyrotechnics were keeping us warm in one of the first 10 rows up front, but then it became cold in the evening. I gave my hoodie to my wife, so I was cold, but I refused to leave because I wanted to hear Deliverance, which - thankfully - they played last; therefore, we stayed for the entire performance and I was able to snag the last poster commemorating the evening. I can't complain! There are many videos reacting to this evening for all of the bands, but especially this song. It's a proud moment to live in Colorado (USA) for a venue and night like this.

[@Polyphemus89]

So amazingly ironic you’re wearing a Jinjer shirt, because Mikael is the reason Tati and other singers like her exist, he was doing this in the 90’s when people didn’t even understand how it was possible

[@gmeister3022]

Absolutely. Even in the last 80's, I think.

[@GlimB]

@@gmeister3022 Opeth may have existed in 1989 but I'm not sure. Mikael Åkerfeldt joined the band in 1990 after David Isberg pretty much kicked everyone else out. However, Mikael wasn't the bands vocalist until after David left in 1992. So I wouldn't say he's been doing it since the 80's.

[@yodieyuh]

Mikael? Over other male vocalists mixing clean and dirty in the 90s? Over Karyn Crisis and other women, in the 90s, mixing clean and dirty? Over the male dirty vs female clean from early 90s Theater of Tragedy? Just Mikael?

[@Polyphemus89]

@@yodieyuh I mean yeah, because he invented the technique they were all using in the 80’s. Didn’t say he was the best, just the godfather. Edit: although to be fair I am biased and do think he is the best, at least until very recently when the science caught up to the technique and their are some singers out their doing insane stuff now

[@yodieyuh]

@@Polyphemus89 I feel I must be confused. What exactly are you referring to that vocalists "didn't even understand how it was possible"? Just in my own experience, I first heard Opeth through MP3 trades in the early-mid 90's and nothing about Mikael's vocals was new or puzzling to me. Patton was already experimenting with sliding between clean and harsh in Mr Bungle. Bands like Anal Cunt covered the gamut from clean to shrill to growl to screech to snarl to everything else all in the same 'verse'. Morbid Angel had Evil D doing growl verses and choir-chant choruses in '93, while Therion was also doing growl to choir in '93. Staying with Mikael. His friend and Bloodbath bandmate, Dan Swano, was experimenting with clean + harsh in Edge of Sanity. Aldrahn was moving from harsh to clean in the same line in early Dodheimsgard. He could blend both together into one sound as well. 1994 brought us the first Acid Bath. While Sammy does the more extreme screams and screeches Dax was moving constantly between clean and growl/snarl and back again, sometimes within the same line or even the same word. This is just the first time I've heard anyone claim Mikael did something vocally that hadn't been done before. I love his vocals and used Opeth as practice for my own vocals back in the day.

[@jaszcz86]

Dunno if anyone has recommended this to you, but you should check Procupine Tree "Anesthetize" (live from Tilburg is must!). You won't be disappointed.

[@davidward2651]

Seconded

[@rorymacleod2919]

Was about to comment the same!

[@MrMFr]

Welcome to OPETH. Otherwise known as “the great band ever”.

[@NonsensicalReality]

Yep, they are seriously talented musicians

[@leonardwerner3732]

"Effortless", you said it! He doesnt seem to move any other muscle to growl than he really needs😄If you enjoyed this song, then "Harlequin Forest" from Opeth should be up your sleeve too:) This and "Ghost of Perdition" are my two favorite songs from them.

[@Republic3D]

I'm just discovering Opeth myself, and the song that got me interested was Sorceress. The melodic intro and then the guitar chug is absolutely amazing.

[@leonardwerner3732]

@@Republic3D haha, when I discovered opeth, a few weeks later I realized I had sorceress in my playlist for about 2 years😄 so technically this was my first song too:P

[@danjackson1016]

@@Republic3D that song is so underrated. It's such a shame.

[@davidward2651]

I think he just made it look effortless - he doesn't do new songs with growls because it was hurting his throat. I'd love to see a reaction to The Grand Conjuration.

[@iDEATH]

Oh yeah, Opeth! I can't wait for this one. Prog metal ftw!

[@carlosalejandrodominguezma7695]

Best Prog Metal band ever. You finally got to Opeth!, welcome to the rabbit hole. If you want one of the most beautiful ballads of metal go next with Windowpane. If you want heavy like Ghost of Perdition, listen to their opus maxima Blackwater Park.

[@TheTombree]

Bisscute, i'm so glad you got to do an Opeth song. I just knew you'd like it. You appreciate good live performances and Opeth will deliver. I would love it if you would do either: The Drapery Falls, Bleak, or Blackwater Park. Live ofcourse! Drapery falls is the easiest if you're new to Opeth bit i am sure you would like the other two aswell. Hope you will do more Opeth in the future ^^

[@billyboostah6308]

Yes blackwater park album best:)))

[@NonsensicalReality]

Ghost Reveries and Blackwater Park are too close to call which is best :O I was in the pickle of which to buy the other day so I get that sexy flac action haha and I went with Blackwater Park. Can't remember why I went for that one but they are both so good.

[@2727rogers]

Don't look now but I think Bisscute is becoming a Metal Head. I am so happy for her.

[@harlanmonk569]

Most appreciate the talent of metal bands but don't have then patience or attention span to truly dive in. Once they do they become fans for life. Sometimes realizing that they have been living under a rock listening to just commercial radio music. Its refreshing and enjoyable to see the young' uns experience these overlooked maestros.

[@alcofgod4211]

The best band you've ever played so far.

[@allenhuling598]

One of my favorite Live performances ever, and probably my favorite reaction of yours!! Fantastically talented and hard working band! This is indeed an awesome venue....Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado, USA. Enjoying your musical journey! Cheers!

[@gr8one12]

Mikael has too much talent for one person........incredible.

[@YONATOOTH]

I remember sitting in my friends room when we just bought this album and was completly blown away. Today he is the singer and guitarist in ORM and I work as a music teacher. A lot of it is because of Opeth.

[@KeithThorne]

Opeth is a guaranteed metalgasm

[@Republic3D]

I'm just discovering Opeth myself, the song that captured my interest is "Sorceress". Amazing melodic intro and then heavy guitar chug. Opeth seems to be a band of contrast. Love them so far.

[@rikdavis6776]

Welcome to the rabbit hole.. amazing band amazing transitions.. amazing musicians

[@RideTheSpiral75]

Start with the Blackwater Park album and listen to it in it’s entirety

[@Republic3D]

@@RideTheSpiral75 Thanks for the tip!

[@RideTheSpiral75]

@@Republic3D probably the greatest prog metal album of all time.

[@DrMcKay66]

@@Republic3D Katatonia is another superband from Sweden you must hear out. They aswell as Opeth have changed style over the years and are an amazing band.

[@asmodius666]

Opeth is without a doubt one of the greatest bands to ever grace this planet with their god-like compositions. I wasn't even into progressive music until I heard Blackwater Park, that song is just insane. A solid masterpiece in every sense of the word, although I'd recommend you to do the studio version first to hear the song in its full glory. It's always an experience with Opeth.

[@MrGreyGh0st]

Hell Yeah! Opeth is one of my top five bands of all time! ❤❤❤❤

[@cmkrdg]

Finally! I can't wait to your reaction to the song of the best heavy metal band ever. I'm also waiting for a reaction video to bleak, blackwater park and demon of the fall. ( Opeth ) *Thanks Bisscute*

[@termination09]

The venue was Red Rocks in Colorado - an absolutely iconic setting and one of those legendary places every artist wants/needs to play. And it was an incredible night (I was there 😄)

[@4W0RD5]

Even though I love music, I've never been big on concerts. Just not a fan of huge crowds, but I would absolutely LOVE to see a show at Red Rocks. Man I wish I could have been there for this one

[@trwolfe]

I was there and it was incredible! There was also a giant yellow moon off in the distance behind the city. It was magical. Definitely feel lucky to have lived in Denver my whole life. :) The Mars Volta, Soundgarden, A Perfect Circle, Opeth. Still need to see Tool there though!

[@harlanmonk569]

If you like the mighty Opeth then check out Ne Obliviscaris and their tracks Devour Me Colossus ,Forget Not,Eyrie,Intra Venus,or Pyrrhic. True rollercoaster rides. Absolutely phenomenal musicians .You will be amazed.Thanks.

[@jensr.3409]

Not many can move to this kind of music so well, with all these breaks, but you have a good sense of rhythm, you can see that👍🤘🤜

[@jasonfisher8529]

Bisscute, the Red Rocks Amphitheater is a very well known, extremely well loved outdoor venue, for sure!

[@kylebrooks338]

I remember when I first heard ghost of perdition, I wasn’t the same for a couple days.

[@NonsensicalReality]

Probably my favourite Opeth song. Epic! If you like progressive music then would be cool to get a reaction to Watcher of the skies by Genesis Live. This was when they had Peter Gabriel as a frontman and he would put on a very theatrical performance with multiple costume changes between songs. I think you'll enjoy watching a performance from this era 😀There's a live video of "Watcher of skies" on KZbin.

[@BisscuteReacts]

I see, thanks ❤

[@NonsensicalReality]

@@BisscuteReacts You're welcome. Really enjoying your reactions. It was especially awesome seeing you really dig this Opeth track but also all the depeche mode songs you've reacted to :D

Opeth is a top 3 band all time. Your journey has just begun

[@mmcpa]

Pleasantly surprised to see a fresh reaction to this song. This song holds a special place in my heart. When Kashmir came out in 1975 (I was 15), I had my first favorite song by my favorite band. For 30 years that lasted until this song came out in 2005. I've seen Opeth live 9 times, and this song and Opeth became my new favorite song by my favorite band. I thought this would stay on top for a long time, but I got blindsided by Lovebites, and now The Awakening/The Hammer of Wrath live at Zepp DiverCity is my #1 song by my #1 band.

[@rikdavis6776]

Amazing reaction.. welcome to the rabbit hole that is Opeth

[@rato41]

... Darkness by her side... **CHILLS**

[@winestore_grindcore3223]

The live versions are amazing but, they don't do Opeth justice. The studio versions are on another level

[@TheOvermaster]

I was at the Opeth concert in Halifax a few years ago - and they started playing this song and a mosh pit formed around me. It was, as the kids say, pretty Poggers.

[@satoonizuka1338]

the only thing i can say about this is: "welcome to the family"

[@vigridr7614]

I've been to redrocks for like 5 different gigs over the years, it's hard to breathe up there once you first get up that high, let alone sing. Don't know how bands pull this off. Crazy.

[@ggks3532]

Next for you to go for sure: "Opeth - The Drapery Falls". :-]

[@markblaauw4961]

[@camiloabarca5476]

I was waiting for you to react to Opeth! they are so good and so many great songs to react to too!... for example: Harlequin Forest, Black water park, the grand conjuration and I could continue with this.!

[@hazi5961]

You really must listen to Blackwater Park by Opeth...that song and album is a masterpiece and must listen.

[@Kelly_Cook]

So to answer some of the points in the chat... there's no moshing because the venue is stadium seating, plus its Opeth. Its music to listen to. Also, Fish, this concert happened pre-covid. The venue is Red Rocks Ampitheatre in Colorado.

[@Matjo7588dk]

Haven't listened to Opeth in years.. Sort of forgot how amazing they really are.. Thanks for reminding me. I would actually give you a reaction idea I do not think you will get a lot, since they are rather unknown. But if there ever was a time its in a Opeth song, then the only question is if you see the message and feel adventures of trying something out of the blue. But the band is called Vildhjarta and like Opeth they are from Sweden. They are also classified as a progressive metal band as Opeth, just newer and rather unknown in the general view. But in the scene those who does know about them hold Vildhjarta on a legend status.. They create sounds and music.. and as all progressive metal its really focused on technique and make changes fit together. So if you do see the message, and feel like trying something you most likely won't get asked to try a lot, in the lines of Swedish metal and progressive metal like Opeth.. Then give Vildhjarta a try. I would go with the song called "Den Helige Anden" as it was the song that really made them legend in the circle. They are not super active and don't have a lot of music something that adds to the legend of them somehow. But yes. Vildhjarta - Den helige Anden : kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIS9fo2ffNV1rtE&ab_channel=CenturyMediaRecords Its heavy though, its heavy for those who listen to heavy.. something that gives people who loves Heavy with a big "H" that punch.

Wow it's been 5 months since I was on your twitch stream and asked you to react to this song. This was even before we started the pick a number win a reaction time. I just asked you as nicely as I could and you agreed to react. Shame on me tho for taking so long to comment here. I hardly ever interact with comment sections. But this was a life changer for me because I rarely joined the chat section on twitch until you answered my request for reaction to this song. And now months later I'm very involved with you and your twitch community. It been a blast and I always look forward to the streams and patreon nights. Thank you Biss and I can't wait to continue our Opeth journey.
