Opeth - I Feel The Dark Lyrics

1:48 Someone can explain me how the hell they did this cool effect on the guitar?

To me, Opeth is much like Rush.. a people's band with a die hard following ... not widely known in the U.S.A. or played on any radio outlets. Their music is totally unique and you can't say " well I kinda like Opeth" You either love them.or you dont.......

I can never decide if this or folklore is the best song on the album

That moment when you're thinking about your life and you listen the guitar intro come from somewhere and Mikael's voice kicks in, then you get up and go search for where the music is coming from and you realize it started to play inside your head but coming from the outside.

i love this , one of my faves, i love the music, in a few of these now, i hear a westerny spanishy guitar riff lol i love it.. and, i find the slower songs kind of sultry and deep lol

I got into Opeth after hearing Ghostly reveries and when I heard this album, I'd say it impressed me more than Blackwater park. Watershed is the one I enjoyed the most

I fell in love with this song instantly when I heard it. I'm recording a cover of it right now and man is it groovy.

ben bu şarkının giriş müziğini bir şarkıya benzetiyorum ama çıkaramıyorum :D :P

:o I used to think it was I'm going to make you wish you died, instead of a flaking wish inside.

Folklore is my favorite Opeth's song

OVERRATED.

... What? Heritage is probably their most hated album. How is it overrated?

Mikeal's voice is cashmere

This is one of their best works. Its so powerful and beautiful.

fucking fantastic album, very King Crimson influenced

Best song on the album

"I will make you wish you died" followed by the trumpet before the appocalypse.... such a dark song.. opeth is brilliant

So tripping song...

This song reminds me a lot of King Crimson's early work.

Love this tune! Times a million!

I wish they could release another album like My Arms Your Hearse. That was the real Opeth.

Öne of the best songs of the prog rock era

3:20 - 3:52 might be the greatest single passage in the Opeth catalogue.

This album could really use a remastering.

Lester Lee *tips fedora*

Why the fuck...

Love those mellotron brass tracks at 3:05.

"... And you're going out to war..."

it reminded me of king crimson

Mükemmel

Il se bonifie avec le temps quand même...

this shit is somehow weirder than i thought

Sweet riff and song but that face tree weirds me out.......... ://

About 150,000 of those views are mine

opeths music is simply magical

Ich lieb euch einfach .

When this album came out, I wasn't ready for it. It took me like 3 years to finally appreciate the genius of this musical direction. Now I love Heritage, Pale Communion and Sorceress. Their entire catalog is diverse and has made me pickier about other bands and new releases. I don't want the same album over and over again. Never have to worry about that with Opeth.

Exactly the same for me! At first I thought the album was good but I could see no way in hell it would ever be my favorite Opeth album.

Not only did it become my favorite album by them, it's also one of my favorite albums ever. I did not expect it to change my perspective on music the way it did.

You crazy bro? PC is their best album! haha Sorceress is great too. Amazing and beautiful

I agree, I cam back to this album for the first time in like a year and only realize now how amazing it is

Dustin Ruth i feel the same way as you im so judemental about bands now because of opeth and also mastodon

@Jael Araripe hey man pale communion is great too.

what instrument is at 2:26 ?

keyboards with some effect i guess

Rhodes piano.

2:58 is a Hammond organ ;)

It is a vibraphone with a lot of reverb on it.

I'm pretty sure 2:58 is a mellotron, as well. It sounds like it.

Definitely a vibraphone with tremolo...but not a real one just the sound played through a keyboard.

I find them to be one of the most pleasurable things to listen to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0qffO4dF0o

Like #666

I feel like packing up and driving to a dark solitary place outside the town while listening to this sick piece of music...

Hadi Vafaei Silent Hill? Twin Peaks? Hell, even Raccoon City! Anything would work (I'm bringing you back to the masterpiece by the way)

i find this easy to mastubate to.

Yet spelling was a step too far.

masterbate*

Extremely Landberk.

1:30 bass... sick

nope it is not sick. You are impressed because it is easy to hear the bass in that part

here there is.....the most idiot comment in the world

ozkan,the bass is easy to hear in every part if a genious like steven wilson makes the mix,your comment it´s so stupid that gave me a headache

is the band growing on a tree?

Are you not?

The best part was from 0:00 till 6:40

+Romain Mersel so original...

No words... Just perfect..

That guitar sound at 1:48 ripps me apart. Fuckkkkkkkkk

Sahil Sharma me too

4:44 omg...

This song is pure genius. So much atmosphere. So heavy and evil. 100% Opeth. Please Opeth, never make a bad record!

Porque eu não escutei isso antes?

Tive a mesma sensação quando descobri a banda...

B M EXATAMENTE!

Kazagastão \o/

That finger picked arpeggio is very slick

They played this live at Los Angeles tonight. What a sweet track.

Underrated album. At first I really didn't like it, it was "too calm" but after listening to it a couple of times, I finally realized how genius it is. One of the best albums ever.

@SlaytheAngels I felt this one was more original than Pale.

+Scar Pale was better received for having a more recognizable Opeth sound, but was far worse precisely because of that

+SlaytheAngels I know how you feel .For me it was Black waterpark that set the standard for Opeth (top howevermany metal albums ever........ after burn my eyes) but yeah its has that awesome, deep "i could listen to it 10 times an hear something new" sound that you come to expect...... I miss masters apprentice played live though lol

+Scar Agreed, this one is far more inspired and creative than Pale.

Yes! I thought I was the only one that saw the genius in this album, because Pale Communion is so by the numbers it bore the hell out of me... it was just so safe, there were no risks almot anywhere, and trying to copy Steven Wilson is not good for Opeth at all.

This song is silky smooth evil

where has this been all my life. Progressive metal is now my love

Check out Be'lakor

Tell me what you think

Saw Damnation tour have every album. All different cause he changes his band & is genius

With their Mellotron work they sound like genuine progressive metal.

Welcome to the Prog Family! (4 years late I just now realized, but nevertheless)

I love "new" opeth, although it was always there, since Orchid.

amazing

although I miss the older and more crushing Opeth, the section between 2:15 and 4:16 is one of the most evil passages of music in their discography! There's just something chilling about it. I love it

there's a section in *Moon Above, Sun Below* from Pale Communion which is even darker. I've been listening to these two albums again lately and I bloody love 'em. Mikael's about to start writing a new one, as well as a Swedish side project record with a psychedelic / folk feel apparently. Bring them on

it's like Dracula's theme on crack

schpleeb everything about this song is beautifully dark and eerie... theres no light withought the darkness vice versa

Agreed, It may not be 'Death Metal', but some of these (like "Famine") are just brutal

It's very similar to Steven Wilson's early albums, if you want to check

as good as it is, i felt something was missing, mostly about axe, the drumming was lacking. But still, nice album.

Axe's performance was one of the highlights of the album dude

+PIRO GOD He swings his arse off. I thought it was Ian Paice at first. It's gratifying to hear them growing up, dropping the adolescent faux-anger, and recording something to LISTEN to..

+PIRO GOD as much as i like lopez, axe is probably slightly more technically proficient

Omair Sheikh it never ceases to amaze me how underappreciated Axe is. How skilled, stylish and nuanced does a man have to be? People want to believe Lopez is better but he wouldn't know what to do on these last few albums. Axe is endlessly exciting

Martin Lopez is like Peter Lindgren - the fans' love for them speaks volumes about the fans, and little about the musicians. Both were decent, but not terribly interesting on their own, and, ultimately, expendable. Peter Lindgren didn't write, didn't sing, and he played guitar just like Akerfeldt would if Akerfeldt was feeling uninspired. Martin Lopez had a nice organic groove, but I think people's affinity for him has much more to do with nostalgia for their youth, when Opeth were a dark and interesting accompaniment to their rebellious phase, and all the rapturous discoveries it brought. Drugs, sex, cigarettes, counterculture. The masochistic joy of being lost and disenfranchised. I remember that feeling, and now that I'm older and my hair is greying, I also feel that yearning, but I also know that nostalgia is no substitute for life in the present.

I love Opeth so much,
keep up the good work guys!

One of my favorite Opeth songs, maybe the best one from Heritage for me... Great sombre atmosphere, I love it!

Yesssssssss!
