Deliverence doesnt have any 'erie' moments

[no country for old wainds]

I think Deliverance has a different kind of eerieness to it.

 

[Xerxius]

the deliverance artwork is eerie!!

Yes, very much so.

Deliverance for me is the ordinariest Opeth album...it's more direct than the others.

 

[Demonspell]

Again I feel compelled to defend this album, I find it to be more progressive and wide ranging than its predecessor...

This is what I love about Opeth.... It's not just the music, but the feeling and the atmosphere.... people can have whole threads discussing the atmosphere alone.... As for Deliverance, maybe there aren't any forest moments (I don't feel it in MAYH or SL either) but it does have its share of eerie moments.... the carnival is so awesome, as is the backward voices after the silence.... I think the best atmosphere comes from BWP.... swamps, forests, autumn.... you name it... BWP is amazing in the way it can conjure up such images and atmosphere. It's more than just music to me....

I wouldnt say Medieval.But definatley shit loads of forest moments everywhere.

with my arms you hearse i have two images that i think about.

one is like being back in the dark ages in a really dark and evil landscape,with dense black endless forest.

the other (which i guess is mostly due the lyrics) is being on a christian settlement somtime during the 16th century situated near a grim bleak forest.

with still life the acoustic songs make me think of more a medeval english setting, especially the acoustic part in godheads lament.

"forest of october" makes me think of a forest in mid october

 

[Mantraschism]

While on the subject of 'In Mist...', I agree with everyone about the 'Darkness encloses' part, but the part that really gets me is THE climax: 'In mist enrobed the twilight... she was standing...' GOD. The way everything stops right after 'twilight', with his voice reverberating, and then the lone acoustic guitar comes in... shit. Stunning.

 

[Slynt]

I actually live among mountains AND in a forest, so I guess I don't need that eerieness

 

[threak]

You lucky bastard!!
