Whats yar personal best album since 2000?
For me its definitely "Agalloch-The Mantle".
For me its finally an album which i always waited for and which just 100% suits my music taste, especially in the autumn times we are now. Melancholic but not depressive Doom with tocryfor leads, incredible accoustic guitar work, fantastic production, beautiful lyrics, perfect cdcover and artwork, wonderful mix of black growls which still feel soft and "warm" with whispers and clean voice chant, ... --->
a unique atmosphere which i even couldnt find on any opeth albom. The difference is in the far more progressive work of opeth i guess which makes opeth's music still not that easy to listen as its musically very challenging and at least i cant relax listening to it, because i have to concentrate on music to understand all its sense and beauty.
The Mantle gives ya an incredible experience even when ya just close yar eyes and relax not concentrating on any riff or melody. Its a jewel! Doom metal at its very best. Progressive, beautifull, inspiring but still relaxing listeningexperience.
