Favourite ending to an Opeth song

[ashes_against_the_grain]

What is your favourite ending? Mine are :

Deliverance
Blackwater Park
Closure
Karma
Ghost of Perdition
The Night and the Silent Water

They are in no particular order...

[Korlich]

[Liquid Diamonds]

Deliverance
Blackwater Park
Ghost Of Perdition

Those are all particularly good.

Best:

1. April Ethereal
2. When
3. Moonlapse Vertigo
4. To Bid You Farewell
5. The Night and the Silent Water (the whispering is so awesome!)

Worst:

1. A Fair Judgement (incredibly boring, has nothing to do with the rest of the song, goes on for what feels like an eternity, reminds me of the horrible outro on dream theater's 'misunderstood')
2. Deliverance (good live, insufferable on CD)
3. Reverie/Harlequin Forest (Not as bad as the deliverance one simply cause the riff gets repeated fewer times and the song has a creepy trance-like vibe to it)
4. Serenity Painted Death (it made me think there was something wrong with my cd!)
5. The Grand Conjuration (another case of repeating the same riff WAY too many times, but at least this one changes it up in the rhythm section fairly often and has a couple fills in it)

I know I come off as an old material fanboy, but I'm not...Ghost Reveries is one of my top 3 albums of theirs, it just doesn't have very good song endings

Personally, I find older Opeth songs to be very different from later stuff because it just feels like a mix of black/death and a little bit of folk metal (imho!)

Everytime I listen to Advent or The Night and the Silent Water, I am

MAYH has the best song endings. in contrast, GR song endings just keep on dragging (except ghost of perdition).
