Who are "Opeth"?  I thought I knew them all.

Opeth is a Scandanavian death metal/progressive rock band. They are hardly one of the best bands of all time, but I put them on the list because I'm taken with their music.

They effortlessly switch from satanic growls and shredding guitars to mellow vocals and accoustic melodies, even within the same song. It reminds me of the way Led Zep would switch from metal to accoustic.

Very interesting stuff.

Yeah - that would be me.  I love powerful, driving music.

However, I'm not one dimensional, at least when it comes to music Smile  I enjoy a variety of genres and I love all sorts of artists.  Sarah McLachlan is a perennial top favorite.   Evanescence, Porcupine Tree, Blackfield and Sarah Brightman are currently tops in my playlists.

The one genre I never thought I'd enjoy is Country.  However, Little Big Town and Sugarland are changing my mind on that as well.

Needless to say - I really enjoy music and I love finding new stuff.  I'm a big fan of Pandora (http://www.pandora.com) and tools like Additune (http://www.additune.com) as they help me find new artists and songs.

Groovy man, groovy! "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" is the ringtone on my cell phone. Cool

Trivia question- What does "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" mean?

I think it means you need to get your cholesterol checked, have a colonoscopy and find the smallest sized doctor (therefore with the smallest hands) you can and get your prostate checked. Big Grin
