These guys are young as hell, which is what surprised me about finding them while refreshing my Iron Maiden collection. Their songs are full of nasty Maiden like transitions. And I guess that makes sense, because Maiden is their main inspiration, and favorite band.
At least listen to the solo . |

I like. Shame there's no longer an all music station on TV. You know, like MTV was until about a 15 years ago...

Trivium has always been bad to me but I haven't listened to them past their second album. I guess I'll listen to beach tribe's YouTube embed.
*1:14 later* Nope, Trivium still sucks. |

When I blast the Ascendancy, or Shogun album till the double bass about breaks my windows, and the shredding scares the neighbors, I feel strangely comfortable. |

Ascendancy is as far as it goes.....opened for them three times and partied with those guys....great dudes, great live show but god Crusades and Shogun sucked. BFMV are much better although The Fever sucks big time too..

BFMV can shred. Awesome transitions, love the way the two play off of each others soloing, Matt Tuck's voice is definitely lacking in testicular department.(and that was before he blew out his voicebox) If you like some of the softer stuff mixed in they've got it. Love their dual soloing like in this song starts at 1:40ish) |

It's a goddamned shame, too. Leaving out whether or not one happens to like a band or not, there are certain bands that don't ever come to mind on a thread about Opeth and bands that do similar things. Yet...

I can agree with this. I love Opeth. I'm not a youngen', but I don't mind the newer generation's thrashers, but I can also see how they don't really belong in an Opeth thread. My apologies.

Surely that's not elitism I'm sensing from Reaper?

That I don't like Trivium or Bullet For My Valentine is beside the point. Those bands shouldn't even come to mind in a thread titled "Opeth: holy ****." It'd be like I started a Radiohead thread and someone posted clips from Guns and Roses.

All I know about BFMV is that a lot of the high school scenester kids wear their shirts.
