If OPETH wrote DREAM THEATER's "On the Backs of Angels"

This is pretty awesome.  It's a shortened version (1:33) with no vocals at all, but really cool.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Hilarious. When that screaming lead guitar came in around 1:00 I busted up laughing. Spot on.

From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.

:lol  I kinda rolled my eyes at the concept.  But then I watched it.  That was awesome!

Brilliant :tup That sounds like it could've been the beginning of one of those deleted songs that Mikael wrote before making Heritage. The beginning of OTBOA sounds like In My Time of Need anyway, so it was a good choice for this kind of version :P

I'm not even an Opeth fan and I want to hear the whole song.

It sounds like, "ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk." Instead of the more pleasing kick drum sound of, "gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk."

Honestly, this is legit better than 60% of the material from both DT and Opeth over the last decade.

Extend all those sections by a minute or 2 and you have a full Opeth song. Haha.


Neat idea, due to OTBOA intro sounding like In My Time of Need.
