Opeth - Slither Lyrics
Summer's gone and love has withered
I believe in nothing yet nothing is what it seems
All is gone and promises slithered
You have me nothing yet nothing is what it seems
Your eyes gave away all your lies in the end
The dawning of a seething design
Kept a secret from the light
And felt the weight on my shoulders increase
A bleeding heart led my desperation
Like a bird on a wire
A broken promise of dedication
Never ever again

Opeth Slither Comments
Channelled their inner Mastodon.
Opening riff is totally a ripoff from Bastille Day by Rush.......but it's all good....Opeth are known to be Rush fans!
There's something about this album and 2003's Damnation that sounds/sounded really old
Didn't care for this song at the time. Now I love it. Opeth is the best
Same here. I kind of thought of it as a joke at the time. Now it's my go to when I need a quick dose of Heritage. Such a jam.
I’m kind of the opposite. I liked it more at the time now I kind of hear it as one of their weaker songs as a whole
It’s still a competent song you can groove to though.
I think this is one of my favorite albums ever.
This song is pretty damn metal, probably the best I've heard post-heritage.
This song is great, I wonder why is the Heritage song with less views on Youtube.
I’m not too familiar with this band (yet), but I find it incredible how accepting most people seem to be about their style change.
This song has a bit of a Megadeth vibe kinda.
This was a tribute to Dio, but i can definitely see what you mean. Has that Take no Prisoners vibe.
IMHO there's more Motörhead here
@Some Kind of Master the first thought that popped up in my head after listening to that intro
Seems to me like tribute to Rainbow - Light in the Black.
Or a tribute to Rainbow, in general. If I'm not mistaken, they actually said in an interview that it was a tribute to Ronnie James Dio.
I thought it was Velvet Revolver cover
02:12-02:30
That solo makes me think of Jimi Hendrix
+Dylan Suriyaarachchi Or Ritchie Blackmore maybe. I don't know but it definitely sounds a bit like something from the past.
Definitely sounds like Blackmore to me 👍🏼
Sounds so much Blackmore I almost thought he did a guest appearance first time I heard it.
inmigrant song...
I hear it in bass
Can't stop practicing it on bass! It's so powerful and upbeat!!
Blackmoore
Still my favourite song on Heritage. I remember how divided the metal community was over this album but I still love this record. The 70s prog vibe is something they nailed.
@Metal_Militia1986
Agreed, my friend. I've been very pleased into their 70's prog forays.
this is so Rainbow! LongLiveRock&Roll!
The Dude this was a tribute to Dio so yep!
God, how i LOOOOOVE this song! <3
@Fernanda Aline Souza
Agreed, and the rest of the album is great as well!!
My band does a respectable cover of this song BTW... :)
best song of this new Opeth
A good jam. I approve.
Outro reminds me of To Live is To die by Metallica
well mikael said he loves that song and he's influenced by it, so i'm not surprised if that song inspired the outro of 'slither' haha
+AndJustice4All "Slither" is also the title of a Metallica song (it's one of my least favorites however)
It takes after Firebal by Deep Purple
+croci17
Rainbow's "Kill the King" more like it... ;)
Ritchie Blackmore is Mikael's biggest influence.
Great song. Awesome outro also.
We have a song similar to this one actually. It will be on our debut album ''The Serpent Path'' coming this fall but we have a live video of it on our channel. Look for a clip with ''The Device'' and you'll find it. :)
Kill The King!
