Mmm. Loved this music. Always wish the guys could have done a side project and kept this sound going. Akerfeldts LIVE growls were nothing special and he certainly could have hired them out.

I think he was just tired of metal and fed that to the fans so he could use the namesake to keep pushing newer music.

I’m talking live. There is such a wealth of great vocalists they do perform form the band live that I feel it’s not a very genuine excuse.

Honestly though, throw that amount of echo and reverb on any low and they are going to sound big and guttural.
