Dlaczego lider Opeth kocha grupę Abba
W niedawnej rozmowie z Decibel Magazine, Mikael ?kerfeldt liderujący grupie Opeth wyznał nieograniczoną miłość do muzyki formacji Abba... W ten sposób uczcił wprowadzenie szwedzkich supergwiazd do Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Oto jak Mikael tłumaczył się ze swojego uczucia...
"Steve [Wilson z Porcupine Tree] mentioned them like they were geniuses. And I was like, I grew up with them. They been there for my entire life and I didn?t look at them that way and I had been hearing them my entire life. I knew all the songs".
"But then I realized. I was grocery shopping one day in one of those big stores that has a little bit of everything, like Wal-Mart, and I saw an Abba box set with all their albums and it was like $15 for 9 or 10 albums.
"I grabbed it for Melinda, for my kid. I put it on back home and I realized, I had never listened to Abba, like really listened to Abba, since I had become a musician and it was a difference once you know a little bit about music, it becomes different to listen to stuff. And I became obsessed with them."
