Of course. I'm one of those who enjoy that kickass era.

 

[Ermz]

He meant whether you got into Opeth around that era.

I didn't. I was part of the wave of new fans that BWP got into Opeth.

 

[Punctured]

I got into them in 2003.

Not very old school

90% of the members here now are post Still Life converts, including me. Though, I do think the earlier albums are equally as impressive as their recent ones.

I know what he meant Moonie, and I was part of that era too.

 

[Ermz]

Nice. We'll get you an Opeth-walking-frame fashioned, granny

I know what you mean, but sadly I don't think the same.
The earlier albums had that awesome atmosphere and I strongly believe 'The Ålmighty' was better writer too.

Most of you don't necessarily need to agreed with me, so please don't start bitching. Thank you.

Thank you Ermin, I'll looking forward to it.

ive only been listening to meta lfor a couple of years...i would have been around 6 or 7 when Orchid came out. But it remains my favourite album of all time.

 

[Tubbs]

I started listening to Opeth in late 2004.

Just 5 more posts to go... Oh noes!

 

[prowlergrig]

nope i got into them around 2003... if it makes any difference, morningrise is the one that hooked me

 

[artnoir]

I discovered Opeth in 1998...first album I bought was Morningrise. It totally blew me away, can't explain it. My whole world changed...it's still one of my favourite albums...

 

[waz416c]

yeah I love morning rise too.....TBYFW got me into opeth....!!!......its still one of my top 3 opeth albums..!!!........Keep rockin fellas.....!!!.........PEAC EOUT

 

[artnoir]

yea TBYFW was actually the first opeth song I heard. I downloaded it from a black metal website with all the classics...kinda sad those sites don't exists anymore...

It was about then for me too. It was just before Still Life was released, and Morningrise did the exact same thing for me as well.

 

[artnoir]

yes...it did (and still do) evoke really deep emotions in me that almost no other music can...perhaps Summoning...I just feel so personally connected with the music it's almost scary..

 

[FUBAR]

[Gunt Piddlesworth]

Half the members of this board were probably like 6-10 years old when Orchid was released.
