Heck we could even say that it all began with Bach or Wager. A lot of metal is very similar to both composers, actually.

I like some growling.. I like crazy vocals.. but Opeth is pure shit. Yup you read that right S H I T.

Care to back that up with any kind of reasoning? The TFP usually frowns upon trolling.

Pretty much all of these bands would be better without the "extreme vocals".

Care to elaborate? I think the reason I like Opeth's vocal variance is because it makes the music so much more dynamic. I think a song like The Drapery Falls showcases this pretty well. That song would not be nearly as good without the seamless transition from death to clean vocals at the end. I think it enhances the power of the clean singing, actually.
