Hours of Wealth, Isolation Years, Hex Omega, Atonement, Porcelain Heart ... it's too sweet

Forcing myself to choose just one moment is like trying to masturbate with my left hand. Nice but frustrating. I nominate the following moments for total awesomeness, one from each album is fair I guess (okay two from Still Life since that album owns my soul). From Orchid I nonimate...

I've never tired of an Opeth album before 'Watershed'. I still listen, if not daily at least weekly to 'Orchid', 'Morningrise', 'My Arms Your Hearse', 'Still Life' and 'Ghost Reveries'. To a lesser extent 'Blackwater Park' and 'Deliverance'. But oh, how fast I tired of 'Watershed' :cry: Some...

More ghosts and forests, less psychedelics.

Is it that time of the week again? Oh well... BEST: The Moor, Ghost of Perdition, April Ethereal, Advent, Serenity Painted Death WORST: Atonement, Hex Omega, Isolation Years, Porcelain Heart, Weakness

Actually I know a lot about it.

I am aggressively anti-religious. I try to promote reason whenever I can, and am not fond of superstition taking so much place in our modern world.

Now that IS controversial. :OMG: I know I stirred some controversy in the Watershed thread by being pretty negative towards it, but I have a feeling more fans have realized that the album isn't very good (for an Opeth record, that is) beyond "The Lotus Eater" and parts of "Hessian Peel"...

November's Doom is just so bland. No standout talent like Mikael.

It is quite impossible to pick just one single most powerful moment in a discography littered with, you guessed it, powerful moments. So here are a few of my choices in random order. "The Moor": From beginning to end, this is just one solid 12 minute block of power/awesomeness +4. A perfect...

Got to comment a little here. It's just my opinion against yours of course but it is interesting to see how different views we have yet love the same band.

I have played in bands with the following names: Disenchant, In Vulnus Abire, Arbour, Quoth the Raven, Soulruin and a few more I can't remember right now due to extreme hangover. And there it is. My new band is EXTREME HANGOVER. Fuck you if you think that's uncouth

Saw OPETH in Drammen, Norway yesterday on their final show of the minitour, and for the second time in a row I was dissapointed by an OPETH concert. To be sure, there was much good to be said about it - the sound was phenomenal, best I have heard them with, and the venue Union Scene was...

The one thing about Opeth is that each album has been pretty much unpredictable. I really, really didn't believe Watershed would turn out to be so soft and dare I say bland. Somehow I thought it would be as dark and possibly as ferocious as My Arms, Your Hear.se For Ghost Reveries, I...

Opeth should do a fucking CAMEL cover, like "Another Night".
