Opeth has managed to successfully create a real work of art on Watershed. The death metal band from Sweden took the anticipation of their album to heart and went to the lab to produce something far better than I think anyone could’ve anticipated.
The melodies, the patience and stoicism of every track makes progressive death metal my favourite niche genre. Opeth flawlessly produces a bounty of diverse sounds.
Best tracks include Coil, Burden and Heir Apparent.
In this week’s 10 songs segment, I’ve run the gamut on randomness. From Australian hip-hop, to my newest crush in the form of a Korean-American starlet named Yoon Mi Rae who can sing and rap, this playlist has it all.
Also the usual fare of awesome indie tracks, the best country artist you’ll never hear this year in Hayes Carll and well….you can just listen for yourself.
