@@Adakan18Because hip hop has gone from having creative groovy beats and chord progressions to guys who can’t sing for their life talking about random bullshit. Sure, it might sound good at times but most metal fans, especially prog metal fans want to be amazed by creativity and innovation. Which is almost non existent in hip hop, to my ears at least. Now that doesn’t mean that it’s bad but surely justifies not being interested in it.

Nobody bitched when they released Damnation, but it's arguably even softer than their prog rock records. The fans didn't care because they had just did Deliverance, too. But when they announced they were dropping the metal sound, the fans suddenly hated Heritage. But both Damnation and Heritage are sublime records. All that does is illustrate how fans can betray a classic musician at the drop of a hat.

Husain Mudara every musician knows Mikael and has been influenced by him in a way. Is Opeth not known, yes, but he his know among the metal community. Extreme or not, this guy and Opeth changed the game completely. Imo Mikael and Ihsahn are some of our generations best writers, but unfortunately they’re not big because well, people listen to other shit.
