Opeth Damnation= the typical heavy metal band does ballads.....

I remain open minded, but so far I don't see what's progressive about them....
By any standards Opeth is a very untypical metal band, but Damnation is in many ways their least progressive release. The typical Opeth-sound is much more complex, but then again you have the growl, which few here can bear.

And of course, no serious judgment can be made from 30s samples, don't you agree?
