Best Opeth Intro

[synergy]

Whats the best Opeth intro. I say Blackwater park because it has something like three increasingly better riffs. But thats only because BWP and Deliverance are the only Opeth albums I own. I dont really know the other ones that well.

 

[narcisco]

Blackwater Park is a brilliant piece of music. Layered with all of Opeth's trademarks.
The acoustic guitar then the crushing riff is my own personal Opeth moment.
"Confessor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[Spike]

Are we talking 'Introduction to Opeth' (Music) or best opening passage to an Opeth song, ie: Best Lead-in?

 

[Korlich]

The best opening passages would probably be:
-The Apostle In Triumph
-The Moor
-Deliverance
-BWP

Or at least they are the ones I can think of now.

 

[Super Mahrio]

The Apostle In Triumph even though its really part of Requiem, it was a cool mistake...

Under The Weeping Moon also has a killer one...

 

[Ermz]

When, The Moor, Moonlapse Vertigo, Serenity Painted Death or Forest of October.

 

[segaszivos]

UHhh, prolly MHYH (minus Prologue) or BLackwater Park

 

[DoReMi]

Demon of the Fall... just too fuckin' evil!

 

[molquin]

imho, the live version of advent. the intro is really short but it fucking kills, that song is better live than on record. check it out on the Inferno gig.

 

[molquin]

REVISION:
I know that intro is short and not that complicated but it builds up so nice and makes the rest of the song a masterpiece.

3. The Drapery Falls (with one of the best riffs I ever listen to)

~ Yep. To me, possibly the best metal cd of all-time is MAYH. And those intros cannot be touched.

MAYH is the best.

My favourite intros:

Serenity Painted Death
