Let's compile a list:

Orchid: Instrumental from Black Sabbath's Masters of Reality
My Arms, Your Hearse: A line from Comus' Drip Drip
Still Life: Name of an obscure prog band
Blackwater Park: "
For Absent Friends: The first track Phil Collins sang on with Genesis, from Nursery Cryme

Anyone know any others?

"Observation" is used on multiple Opeth albums...

One of the things that really struck a chord with me was how Opeth always referred to their albums as 'observations'.

It's hard to say because the fact that things have lots of different sources
like Orchid is a flower, and Still Life is an art term.

True... BUT... the band Still Life - look at the cover of their first album "Still Life"...

The Baying of The Hounds ... comus (i think, a line of a song, don't remmember)
Master's Apprentices (australina rock band)

its from diana, i forget the actual line, ican hear it oddly, frig its a good song though

 

[Braighs]

isolation years is a contemporary Swedish band

 

[The Antihero]

King Crimson - no album/song title borrowed, even though KC's "In The Court Of The Crimson King" album's booklet says "an observation by King Crimson", and on the other hand Deliverance, GR, and even Watershed has this type of introduction.

Burden and Hex Omega both have sections that sound a LOT like King Crimson.

 

[Kazraine]

its from diana, i forget the actual line, ican hear it oddly, frig its a good song though

"...And she knows by the sound of the baying, by the baying of the hounds..."
