OPETH - Sorceress: Studio Report - Episode 1: Rockfield Studios

[@erdemduman23]

2:31 "I mean Freddie Mercury was a bit sloppy, so my touch is little bit more sensitive." LOL.

[@allofthemmilkingwithgreenf7493]

I wish more bands would make these kind of studio reports for their KZbin channel. Really dig it.

[@derek9511]

5:02 "At this moment in time a rock legend is hanging out here (me)"

[@KamenMinkov]

Mike and his modesty.

[@derek9511]

+Kamen Minkov Well he's not too far off lol

[@primetime_al822]

His humor is so dry. I love it.

[@Flugmorph]

Liking the new harsh vocalist D. Obermann.

[@AdrianoRibeiro123]

Growls confirmed with this new "dawg"

[@Flugmorph]

rawr e lol he mad. i dont mind mikael not growling anymore. i enjoy his cleans just as much if not more.

[@Flugmorph]

JIF882 amazing how that works

[@mvunit3]

Barking vocals are an acquired taste, I like barking and growls myself O.o

[@tieukhavu8832]

Also known as Dobermann

[@KhareRanjit]

2:49 "I was barely born at the time"

[@DethGaleX]

I wish I was an acoustic guitar that was played one of their albums.

[@Drums4Life762]

I wish I was the acoustic guitar in hessian peel

[@Gojira176]

Benighted! YES! Please turn me into that guitar.

[@ivettec7640]

Everything he says is poetry with that accent. "It smells a little bit"😍😍😣👌

[@whycantihaveanumber00000]

D. Oberman. You are one PUNBELIEVABLE individual Mikael.

[@BigBadBuzz]

I swear my pants were on when this video started.

[@ignominoussidereus4103]

Cannot confirm they were still on when the video ended

[@Flugmorph]

OREWAAAAAA

[@ryankyungsoocho4291]

FRANKU

[@SuperWeedPower]

oooh whatchu saaaaaid you lalal this waaaaaaaaay ohh whatchu saaaaaaaaid whawahwah did u saaaaaaaid?!

[@locksh]

That outro was tasty, hot damn.

[@Drums4Life762]

Hopefully that's one of the new songs!

[@FureonNectarmoon]

And the intro!

[@DethThrasher1]

i highly doubt opeth would ever tune that low

[@alekstoppari943]

+barfyman362 i remember reading an interview with mikael about writing the new album a while back and I'm pretty sure he said something about a drop A tuning on the album

[@codymonsoon4067]

It's not that they're tuned low, it's that the bass is high in the mix.

[@AliothSenator]

Holy fuck the riff at the end. Insta triggered.

[@matcarpes]

Hype train loaded and ready to start

[@AliothSenator]

CHOO CHOO !

[@no_stick_drummer2735]

fuck yeah a soen profile pick

[@no_stick_drummer2735]

+No_Stick_Drummer *pic

[@ElectricTurkey1]

it's fucking nuts, im hyped!!!

[@AngelAffinity18]

Opeth! I've been a fan for way over 10 years now. You guys produce some of the best music Ive ever heard. Thank you so much for your wonderful work. Your music is a fantastic addition to my life! \m/

[@MrJordwalk]

That part about D. Obermann Hahahahahahahahahahaahaaaa!!!!

[@WyeExplorer]

My brother Paul and I popped in there in 2014 after hiking the River Monnow from source. Kingsley thought we were Rockfield pilgrims first then realized we were hikers who loved music. He gave us a tour and we had a far out chat. Fabulous memory. Here's part of that hike. Rockfield is about 2/3rd the way through kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXXRkniCgMepb68 Peace!

[@gpol9017]

Steven will stay in your room, Mikael?

[@dissonantpulse]

Outro in repeat until the release of the new album

[@AstralTales]

Pretty excited about this one. Amazing Fredrik solo and really cool riff at the end!

[@ZwelMunWint]

Did you left your Steven Wilson at your home, Mikael?

[@Ajoscram]

Man I fucking love this band. They're down to earth dudes who love their craft. Usually other bands would sell this kind of footage as bonus on a DVD or something. They even posted their entire albums here. They're in it for the music and that earns my respect. Good shit Mikael and the boys, keep up making solid stuff.

[@Fenghorn_Zob]

"Oh! Windy"

[@johnnyarnold3098]

3:53 4:30 4:39 7:06 I wonder why it is I love to hear Mikael mention when they drink beer.

[@BLooDCoMPleX]

I love his deadpan humor.

[@xpanchp]

That new singer D. Oberman rocks hahahaha

[@necroplastful]

He was in a Pink Floyd album. Meddle I think. Not surprised Mickael chose him ;)

[@basurainmunda]

D. Oberman will sing the growls

[@ThePuertoricanBeastJonathan]

I visit this series every now and then, its so entertaining

[@kaankurt6652]

Mike your explains are so sweet. :)) Cant wait the new album!

[@thechubbman]

That riff at the end is hnnngyeessmore

[@auzzykern]

Its already been said more than once, but DAMN that outro \m/

[@DeborahWaltenburg]

what a gorgeous place! I can see how that location, plus beer, of course, would offer much inspiration.

[@mrlozano]

That outro riff!!!!!!

[@LurchyScott]

Shit gave me goosebumps. Glad to hear the heaviness of Opeth return again.

[@MaxNazareth]

can i assume that noise on the next record, sorceress? sounds promising

[@EndeAbgrunds]

That tid bit alone sounds better than Heritage and Pale Communion. I'm looking forward to this release.

[@kojaniszewski]

mikael. Please. Just one little growl. Pleeeeeaseeee

[@antoniovrenna5553]

No need for growls if the music's good.

[@EricMetalhead]

yes, like in Damnation :v

[@jamespeterson4275]

THEM TUNING DOWN TO FUCKING A DOESNT MAKE UP IN HEAVINESS FOR LACK OF GROWLS TO YOU????? WTFFFF I AM SHITTING

[@kojaniszewski]

Antonio Vrenna My favourite album is Pale Communion so i know it damn well :D I could use a growl or two anyway.

[@Caneggia12]

Plase le michel akerfeled can you le plese do le growl liek u ded in the old daiys those whear te beast deys in le opeth istory music was so le MEETTAALL \m/ lol XD plese Michel Obama do le groul at list once in the albuum

[@KeyboDreamerX]

The epic solo at the end. Please more videos like this!

[@ArkSquall]

Thanks for the visit ! Was cool. Oh, and : THAT F*cking Riff !

[@MW-wr4nt]

Already looking forward to episode 2 of the vlog, and cant wait for the new record.... 💀

[@haldoomo6752]

I love Opeth and I love drink Beer too

[@C20H25N3Ofya]

That place reminds me of the Watershed artwork. Beautiful.

[@ralphgehteha9924]

I love this kind of video and would like to see more of the recording/mixing process. That little bit of song to be heard gives hope 😉😊

[@Michael_Michaels]

Awesome! It's the second time I see this studio on a band video! First time was on Queen Days Of Our Lives (I guess) and now Opeth report!

[@rud3m3chanical]

I love that they're using KRK Rokits and Yamaha NS-10s for near-field monitoring. despite being such a famous studio. Makes me feel a little better about my shitty home studio setup :)

[@StunckYounes]

Can't wait to hear, all of you can't wait x) And that outro is sick!

[@matycee]

Sweet Museo Rosenbach T, Mikael. Bet you have a pristine copy of the lp to go with that too. Can't wait for the new record.

[@elissabethdyanna2360]

Love the artwork on the album cover too!

[@GeeVanderplas]

Can't wait! I loved Pale Communion, and I hope they continue in that vein.

[@joshuaaurien3514]

This album is gonna rock. I know we're not getting any death metal anymore, but after hearing Cusp of Eternity, I became convinced that this band has to do an entire record's worth of material that's riff heavy like that. This album might be that. And I know Queen recorded there, but I think of Rush - they recorded AFTK and Hemispheres there. Maybe some of that magic will creep its way in.

[@YYZ2112able]

This place looked familiar, and it's because Hemispheres was recorded here and they showed that in Rush Beyond the Lighted Stage.

[@no_stick_drummer2735]

i thought so

[@theprisoner6666]

Isaac Koop yes, you’re right. I always thought it was Farewell to Kings, but it was Hemispheres. I remember the shot from the documentary now you mention it.

[@billyhodges7194]

Rush definitely recorded AFTK at Rockfield

[@therealeleusis]

So much good music recorded at that place! I bet this Opeth record is going to be so good!

[@EricMetalhead]

I've watched this like 20 times already lol

[@saschamarr495]

Crazy how different this is when compared to the making of deliverance! Happy to see Mikael is in his element and no longer dealing with shitty equipment / setup!

[@sonorkid1998]

DAMN that fecking beautiful riff at the end. ill be in the Netherlands when this is released. definitely getting a dutch copy!

[@raven25100]

Looking forward to hear it and own it

[@yaroubthayer-752]

Keep up the brilliant work lads. See you on tour.

[@nuriaroch9666]

I'm sure it will sound great! Come back to Barcelona soon, Miguelito!

[@leoania]

Michael does Nigel Tufnell - love it and what a riff at the end!

[@JoeChoufany]

Oh my lord. That outro.

[@simo21beatrice]

Museo Rosenbach T-shirt and D. Obermann singer are both awesome :D

[@nigelvonshredman]

Excited!

[@spectator_music]

Holy shit, I can't wait! It's also going to be released 2 days after my birthday soo

[@kickit7464]

Funny shit that, by Mikael @0.59 "I dont know that shit" & @1.28 "But What I Know". Imagine if he was a doctor, he would be the best Dr Feelgood.

[@yagmurdeniz130]

Still looking forward for the album!

[@carlstawicki1915]

Thumbs up for the outro music alone.

[@Michael_Michaels]

5:08 D-Oberman! Awesome! xD

[@WhatsGoinOnMate]

Can't fucking wait, sounds like it's gonna be a pearler.

[@VBshredder]

Solo sounds beastly

[@RecepCanAltnbag]

Wow Mikael's Museo Rosenbach t-shirt is awesome!

[@hunterbiden7391]

Love the album!!

[@CarlosIvanMarquez]

Awesome!

[@1_rjc]

5:16 "His name is D. Oberman" lmao

[@marioretrotech]

legendary STUDIO . to legendary band OPETH . good luck boys and see you on TOUR .

[@colodrillo]

nice museo rosenbach shirt

[@jake6112]

Love how some of the signs are written in Welsh as well like they're getting a lot of big Welsh bands in :P

[@Bryan8329]

The secret to their success? Beer, apparently.

[@CoderatheGreat]

Looking forward to the new album! Should be great. :)

[@w104bgs]

He stepped outside around 3:20 and I saw the Museo Rosenbach shirt. So jealous!!!

[@LevitatorMusic]

I sincerely hope the new album is in the same vein as heritage and pale communion!!! been a fan since Blackwater Park but I love the 60's psychedelic rock/progressive metal mix!!! it's perfect to me!!

[@temporarymomentary]

9:14 I already love it !

[@rodrigofalln]

Can anyone tell me please why do they record guitars so loud? thank you so much:)

[@JOHNNYBOYCIVIELLO]

Museo Rosenbach, uno dei più grandi gruppi italiani di sempre, grande Mikael.

[@adityastrcoep]

Fredrik is fucking awesome. Loved the era solo.

[@jimmystiner8035]

Were did you get the museo rosenbach tee shirt? I wants one

[@naiyalexic]

"...again, drink lots of beer." (Priceless. What a sweetie. :-) )

[@petez0r.]

omfg cant wait....only thing i hate you for is not coming to my city for the tour...feelsbadman

[@jorgeluistorresgonzalez9078]

That zarathustra shirt from museo rosenbach is awesome where did you buy it, theyre sold out everywhere.

[@pretoshohmoofcguy6523]

The Band Rush wrote Farewell to Kings in this studio

[@Kole777]

Dear god this is gonna be good, I can feel it in my bones.

[@kevinmaurer3562]

Will O the Wisp feat. D. Øbermån

[@Jubanen12]

Im excited for this album now.. I dint really like Heritage but Pale communion was pretty good.. hope this is gonna be good!

[@JahMusicTube]

Fucking love the Museo Rosenbach t-shirt!

[@33dgtp]

i cannot contain my excitement

[@AleksMaik]

Wow, the ending shows that the production of this album will be far different than on the last two; more like Ghost Reveries. Guitars are so close in mix^^

[@bmarrero]

Love me some instrumental Hard Rock... Think "Goblin" from the previous record, or of course "Orion" from a little band they called Metallicunts I think...

[@JoaoFerreira-fx3xp]

Now that I finally heard this masterpiece of an álbum, I can finally watch these :D

[@oldmateadz]

Can't find the pre-orders anywhere! :'(

[@notazx]

HIS SHIRT >

[@kemprock4155]

Museo Rosenbach t-shirt, italian prog band from '70ies

[@SiGhast]

Seems like a tiny-ass TV for a place like that, and considering the distance of the blue sofa.

[@RobertoSunga]

We drink beer, here is were we drink beer, he drinks beer, I'm gonna record so I drink beer.

[@Tappen1000]

Opeth going back to Metal??? A tear of joy is running down my cheek... Maybe even old school growls??? Yes, I said it! Now go and hate me... ;) In this case I would buy the album 10 times!

[@Nickball97]

Ok guys i've watched this like 20 times already, when's episode 2 coming out?

[@ricardogadelha5003]

According to Opeth's facebook page, subsequent episodes will be released in the coming weeks.

[@lizucavictoria]

I love his English.

What happened to the other 10 studio reports? I was lucky enough to get through them while they were there, but now they're set to private.

[@metallica88ableable]

Fuck! i cant wait for the new album
