Just snagged a center orchestra. I can’t believe I’m seeing fucking Opeth and mastodon at the Wang Theater. This theater normally has ballets and shit. This should be amazing.

I did same on presale. 4th row dead center. Have been bummed since Opeth cancelled their Worcester show back in 2019 (Mikael had laryngitis).
This will be sick. Hoping for some classic Mastodon in their setlist (think Leviathan and Crack The Skye).
Opeth can play whatever they want…. I dig it all.
I’ve never really listened to Mastodon but I am gonna try to learn some of the classics.
Did Opeth ever announce anything about that Worcester show? I’m still holding onto those tix . I’ll just take a refund at this point.
Oh, also in for avl.

I like OMRTS
This is an almost perfect summary.
I’ll also add that their Cold Dark Place EP is really good. All 4 songs.

I’d say it’s more their Little Gift.
But yeah as a whole I really do like that album. Tread Lightly, The Motherload, Chimes at Midnight, Asleep in the Deep, Diamond in the Witch House… all great IMO

Seabeast is the name of my wireless network at home. The “wife” doesn’t care for it.

This dude playing Leviathan on piano from memory is seriously impressive and shows how well composed that album is.
This is a Mastodon thread now.
You mean to tell me that you don’t throw on Show Yourself and dance your @ass off? I do. Roots Remain is also great. Actually I think I like that whole album.
Not that its helpful to paring down their catalog but I think all of Leviathan, Blood Mountain, and Crack the Skye is essential listening.
