October is soon approaching and
that means Halloween as well. It's feels suitable to start making each of these
entries for the entire month based around music that unsettles or suits the
moodiness of the month, beginning a little bit earlier still in September with Opeth...
That Opeth have transitioned from progressive death metal to progressive
rock over their records shows a great concern with exploring the possible
reaches of the band's music. Many an obscure prog rock album has been
referenced as inspiring the band or in the wheelhouse of taste of its central
figure Mikael Åkerfeldt, and from the
acoustic guitar to the various musical sections of this particular song, the
diversity found in just a single track off an album of theirs is apparent. Plus
in this particular case, you cannot say they've lost the death metal influence
even if there are no blast beats. if I want to start off the October session
with atmosphere, this is as moody as you could get.
