7.Dan Swano - Moontower (uncreation, add reality)
8. Miles Davis - In a silent way (it's about that time)
9.Tool - Lateralus (reflection)
10.Jesu - Jesu (sun day)
 
Pink Floyd-Echoes, A Pillow of Winds, Careful with that axe Eugene, Shine on you crazy diamond
Opeth-Weakness, Windowpane, The Moor, Ending Credits, To Bid You Farewell, Patterns in the Ivy I&II
Mike Oldfield-Tubular Bells (ok, its not a song but its really atmospheric!)
ELP-Tarkus, Endless Enigma, Jerusalem
Black Sabbath-Headless Cross, Sabbath Stones, Ancient Warrior

Metallica-Orion
King Crimson-Circus, In the Court of the Crimson King, Matte Kudasai

Careful with that axe Eugene. One of the best song titles EVER! That reminded me of the atmosphere of Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun. All that early Pink Floyd reminds me of my mispent youth.:zombie:o_O Surprised I have any memories at all.:Smokin:

I was waiting for someone to post Arriving Somewhere But Not Here by Porcupine Tree, because that is my no.1 most atmospheric song. :kickass:

But, the most atmospheric Opeth song? I would say Hours of Wealth.

Nah, Radiohead have quite a few spacey and atmospheric songs.
- Subterranean Homesick Alien
- How To Disappear Completely
(to name a few)

listen to those songs and then try to make an accurate judgement.
