I finally got into MAYH...

My Arms Your Hearse is my favourite Opeth album. Every song is a masterpiece, even Karma (when you eventually get into it). I think Orchid was quite sloppy but nevertheless a good album, and it has the best two Opeth instrumentals ever written IMO.

Still Life is NOT the best Opeth album.
 
Epilogue is such a beautiful instrumental piece...

It took me some time too, but MAYH is now among my favorite Opeth Albums...

My favorites are still Still Life and Blackwater Park though :p
