Opeth - Continuum Lyrics

...nice ..on our flat earth .. IHSITE.com has CURES for cancer ..

im just in awe of the beautiful sounds these guys can make.i honestly feel out of all the flaws humans have deep inside we have this flawless beauty that just shouts unity

This is beautiful

Im falling in love with my favorite band all over again

Opeth: always with creativity, quality, changes & diversity. Awesome solo and vocals. In resume: one more time the band ratified his music is within the two or three best bads of the world in the last thirty years. Absolutely stunning, brilliant. Huge music !!!!

This chorus is absolutely flawless.

No one talk about min 3:20 that stunning solo is so mind blown.

Old Opeth is better:/

Beginning sounds a lot like R. Stolt of The Flower Kings....maybe next door neighbors?

Hmmm yeah, I can definitely hear Kiss's "Under the Rose" in this song, especially in the chorus and outro.

4:50 my favorite part of In Cauda Venenum

Absolute perfection. As I read the lyrics after hearing it a few times it hit me so hard... I love Opeth so much.

Belo ! belíssimo !

Unbelievable ...

When this first began playing, I thought it was a cover of “Swingtown”.

Imagine if Morningrise was written after 2 decades of experience... that's what the ending to this song sounds like

best opeth song since blackwater park

Ahh, the dynamic shifts, the FEELS...

Reminds me of Alice in chains

Well there's one on every Opeth album; 4:50. Unfortunately it's the only decent part for me on the whole album. I guess that's what happens when you create such perfection, standards are high. Oh and I also enjoyed the monk chanting ;D

Sad to hear man. Most of us are still enjoying Opeth with every release

Empty house, and empty pockets
There's an echo in the hall
I keep your picture in a locket
In the past, we had it all
But the Summer fades away
Rainy day tomorrow

In the company of dawning
In the presence of a friend
I was subject to a wanting
And unable to ascend
So I opened up my gate
It's too late to wonder

"Det är bara en ny dag, inget särskilt har hänt"

Once there was a moment
Time was on my side
Rust and silk bestowment
Balanced on my pride

You are moving away from home
Escaping the monochrome
One after another
Striding along the road
Past the crest, you will be free
Laid to rest now, let it be
Honest promise to a degree
The edge too sharp for guarantees

Once there was a moment
Time was on my side
Rust and silk bestowment
Balanced on my pride

A part of our past is still there
Underneath your shoes
The memory's stuck in your chest
The idle truth is up to you
The river of time flows on
Blind and ruthless

Life is so fragile, I know
And even if I heard
A yearning voice in your heart
Old routines always kept us apart
The river of time flows on
Blind and ruthless
The river of time flows on
Blind and ruthless
The river of time flows on
Blind and ruthless
The river of time flows on
Blind and ruthless

Do a collab with Devin Townsend

Dev said they both sat down and wrote the dumbest piece of music either of them have been involved with. Mikael has it.

C20H25N3Ofya What is it called?

I could barely stomach the first track off of Empath, they should just keep to their seperate ways.

@David Heller Not released. According to Devin, Mike has the track and wont even send it to him.

Devin is more inventive than Opeth

The solo in the middle of the song sounds like a Slipknot guitar solo ..

THIS TRACK MADE ME ERECT FOR MORE THAN 4 HOURS :D

I like how specific you are lol

Opeth needs to CALM DOWN. Christ, this track.

What a complex and beautiful tune. Opeth have come so far and delivered so much original music. I am so grateful for this. This song is very high on my list of favorites. The chorus, the melody, the transitions and the instrumentation all come together to make for a very original and wonderful track. Thank you, guys!

"The river of time flows on
blind and ruthless" Absolute godlike singing here

Hey it's the drums from Steve Miller Band's "Swingtown"!

4:51 i love this part

Man the vocals! Mikael harmonizations are rocking me in a cradle!!

Godly Led Zeppelin style

That drum gallop intro got me expecting run to the hills. But mikael loves his maiden so not surprised

And the bass line sounds maiden-y as well ;)

the guitar sounds like iron maiden's "The legacy"

So far this album is awesome, the dynamic of the music is amazing, but it feels a bit slow

Lopyt *Sir_Guy* Listen to Devin Townsend if you want dynamics!

amazing song

Amazing

4:50 onwards is certainly one of the most beautiful melodies that I heard from these guys.

Absolutely stunning.

Majestic

no no no........i miss the old opeth!!!

@djTeoA it says Opeth on the cover.

Opeth is Opeth, what you think they are is just your opinion. I always saw Opeth as a prog band, that happened to like extreme metal.

Kid Rock and Opeth should collab too

Before they went metal there original influence was progressive rock

@Mips thats so true, thank you for that statement <3

Pretty original album i feel vibes from heritage but this goes on his own way amazing solo at the middle of the song solid lyrics as always i think this will be my favorite album of the year i also liked Soen, Tool, Dream theater new stuff

Meh album overall for me.. but this song is pretty damn good! Probably my favourite so far.

Serag Baddar They went into Damnation on this album. I like Heritage and the other albums better!

Damn this album is 11 on the charts though

3:22 strap in we're going to WAH WAH LAND

Ross Weaver lol

Not a bad place to go. Thanks for the warning.

Okay this is my Favourite from the Album. Love this, it goes hard and soft perfectly.

Now this is good stuff!

best yonko with that good taste. kaido has i higher bounty tho

@bruno queiroz haha yes! I read the chapter. I was so hyped. Was a good day, for one piece fans and Opeth fans!

@Anonymous Shanks Agreed. :-D

Is it just me or is there a lot Alice in Chainsy vocal arrangements on this album? Not complaining at all, I love it!

@Steven C where and when ?? Mikael trying to hit those notes ..? Hmmm

@Cheximus https://youtu.be/inpbS2JpMRA

I was just thinking that! Noticed it especially on Next of Kin and Charlatan.

@Steven C Sheesh that was awful.

Very close to Jerry Cantrell

Incredible solo and outro!

It's just another day, nothing special happened...

With your head in the sand, sure.

@The Absolute It's the English translation of the audio sample from "Universal Truth", I'm not sure why it's being referenced for this song. Similar lyric themes maybe?

Great album, thanks Opeth!

Timeless.

It's a few days old... Lmao

Like the continuum, hoho

My favorite one from this album!! Thank you Opeth for existing!

Подписываюсь под каждым словом)

Wow......

Listening to this album I' m like :< This Is my favorite song...no wait this Is my favorite...but those are so beauty... or maybe that other one...>my God I can't choose a single one 😂🤘

They have certainly earned the right to.......do as they see fit. How many people blinded by the light found reffuge in the comfort of their curtains? How many cold people found warm encouragment and embraced the light. We all should be thankfull....that's just what i'm saying.

Everything you believed is a lie
Everyone you loved is a death-burden
So you take comfort in him
And you are receptive to stark wishes
No longer struggling to declare your stand
You would inflict no harm to others
They are unaware and in a loop of futile events
You are everything, they are nothing




Sorry

@Lopyt *Sir_Guy* Music Baying of the Hounds ?

@Cheximus But of course

I can't stop listening to the acoustic guitar melody at the beggining, 0:00 - 1:30, crazy good!

damn i am actually the second one to comment !!!! damnn 😊😊😊😊😊 .. feeling thankful to be alive already

Because you commented second on a video? Won't take much for you to keep on going then eh?

it might just be a video for you but for some it's witnessing a masterpiece as soon as it's released ... depends on the value art holds in your heart i guess ... 😊peace

I'm the first one to listen to this masterpiece

@CheeseDick Do not question Satan himself.

Hmm pretty sure the band and all the engineers were the first to hear the album, but okay satan.

@B's AutoSpa do question me but I'll reply you in hell, you'll repay for your questions...I am the absolute power....Fuck Jesus.

@joseph1193 oh... well shit...

Well, surely you wrote it, so...? 😆
