09.25.12 | have you looked at their average ratings here? |
bach
09.25.12 | I don't hate Opeth.
And yeah, have you seen Blackwater Park's average rating? That's hardly "hating." |
lyzakthellama
09.25.12 | Well I'm not talking so much on just average rating but so many people vocalize their hate for them like sixdegrees said. I haven't really paid attention to their ratings so much |
Dunpeal
09.25.12 | i seem to remember a time when the vocal majority around here couldn't stop yammering about their greatness |
cb123
09.25.12 | there's never been a band which 100% of people like, its one of the great things about music, nothing is for everyone |
lyzakthellama
09.25.12 | I don't know I just was looking at some list on "bands that you hate" and around 1/3 of the commenters said Opeth, that kind of surprised me. It just seems like no one sticks up for them or at least anymore, I'm fairly new I feel like I missed the "vocal majority that couldnt stop yammering about their greatness". |
Trebor.
09.25.12 | Boring
Self i indulgent

ThunderNeutral21
09.25.12 | yea their not as good as devil wears prada treb
opeth has a few lame records but bwp still kicks my ass to this day 5/5 |
North0House2
09.25.12 | I'm neutral to them. Meh. |
Chortles
09.25.12 | this list would apply for converge or btbam where majority praises them but there is a noticeable
minority that doesn't. in this case i rarely see anyone bashing opeth |
lyzakthellama
09.25.12 | I guess I just want to see the vocal minority's justification for not liking them because I've seen people be pretty harsh towards them. |
ThunderNeutral21
09.25.12 | the people who hate converge r retarded |
Chortles
09.25.12 | that fits, i'm pretty retarded |
lyzakthellama
09.25.12 | I really don't like Converge too much either |
ThroneOfSystemUnfold
09.25.12 | lmao proggy thought u were becoming cool i guess old habbits die hard ay |
guitarnater
09.25.12 | Of course, with a list like this, when the majority comes out, the same vocal minority runs and hides. Just understand that this site is full of people who refuse to like music just because it has 30+ ratings. |
lyzakthellama
09.25.12 | Ya that's what I'm saying. I mistitled this list, I am just trying to find some justification for not liking them because they seem pretty accessible to anyone that likes metal, but it seems that everyone who hates them is hiding away. |

09.25.12 | Vocal minorities here on sputnik are like house centipedes. They skulk around when the time is right and voice their unorthodox opinions. But, once confronted.. they scurry in fear to the nearest crevice to seek shelter and safety. |

BlueW
09.25.12 | opeth are okay, i'll laugh at anyone rating any of their albums above 4. but they don't warrant hate. |
ThroneOfSystemUnfold
09.25.12 | i dont run away if someone contradicts my views im just like oh well who really cares its just music listen to it how you like it as long as you like it WHO GIVES A FUCK except sometimes people might say something stupid or i might be feeling a little mean ill be like lol this album sucks but ill never make fun of peopl for liking a specific album unless im really FLAMING MAD |
Chortles
09.25.12 | "opeth are okay, i'll laugh at anyone rating any of their albums above 4. but they don't warrant hate"
damn you must be a jolly guy, considering the ratings on most of their albums are over 4 |
ThroneOfSystemUnfold

ThroneOfAgony
09.25.12 | that lought guy hates opeth |
YankeeDudel
09.25.12 | Opeth fuckin sucks thats why. They are the most boring pretentious piece of cocks that only know how to play LOUD then
soft, SCREAM then sing, over and over and over with some acoustic interludes thrown in for extra cockage. Worst band
ever and you should be ashamed if you like them. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.25.12 | How you can 5 an Agalloch album and then hate on Opeth is beyond me |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.25.12 | Oh my fuck, *facepalm* trolled dammit |

09.25.12 | zing |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.25.12 | damn, I screwed that one up lmao |
HitlerIsTheBest
09.25.12 | "How you can 5 an Agalloch album and then hate on Opeth is beyond me"
idk, maybe because they sound completely different from each other. |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.25.12 | I get a similar vibe from both of them |
evilford
09.25.12 | I think part of it is that they have always been labelled as death metal, but they're really more than that. But someone going into listening to them expecting them to be as much death metal as they are pegged to be will be like "what the fuck is this". Same thing happens with bands that are pegged as sludge but aren't really and so on. I also think that once a band reaches a certain level of popularity and/or breaks out of obscurity that people have this innate tendency to hate them, think they're gay, etc. And I'm sure that there are people who just don't care for them for legitimate reasons related to the music.
Personally I love Opeth and they're one of my favorite bands. |
