I'm Hoping To Get A New Opeth CD By The End Of The Week...

[King Purple Rainbow]

...so, it really doesn't matter which one I get?

I have BLACKWATER PARK and I still love it!

 

[demon talented]

Get any.

You really can't go wrong, but know that you might have to get adjusted to them between their different albums. Some took me longer than others to get into.

I got them in the order of Blackwater Park, Morningrise, Orchid, MAYH, Still Life.

 

[thebleakaffinity]

Get My Arms, Your Hearse. I just got it, and it is incredible.

 

[Hondo]

Get the new one. From the future. And give it to me.

 

[King Purple Rainbow]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

I would if I could...

Well, on second thought, I would keep it for myself!

 

[Hondo]

No, I just want to look at it for a minute. I swear I'll give it back and not stab you for it.

 

[clayman666]

I'd go with Morningrise........although it would be quite a change from Blackwater Park, it might take ya some time to get into it like TheLedTool mentioned but it will some of the best 10-15 dollars you'll ever spend on a cd

 

[King Purple Rainbow]

I keep hearing that...

But wouldn't it be better if I save it for last?

 

[Blackhorse_Experience]

GET MORNINGRISE...trust me. Then MAYH

 

[changso]

hummm...I have an idea!

Take those in no special order:

Orchid
Morningrise
My Arms, Your Heare
Still Life

 

[King Purple Rainbow]

L O L ! ! !

That helps!

 

[Immortality]

Hey look, it's KPR.

 

[King Purple Rainbow]

Um...yeah?

 

[BlackwaterPark666]

If you love Blackwater Park go for Still Life or My Arms, Your Hearse. Both are just incredible ,and are in simular styles.

Morningrise and Orchid may take a little bit more time to grow on you as they are more "Black Metalish".

They as well are incredible. You could pick any of the 4 ,and go home happy.

 

[ham]

ill agree with what BlackwaterPark666 said except for his 'black metalish' comment *BRING IT ON... ANOTHER OPETH = BLACK METAL ARGUMENT?!@#@!"

heh

morningrise and orchid have a slightly less "song-based" structure, and will probably feel very disjointed at first, at least it did for me. awesome riffs and drumming - fuck i love anders nordin.

 

[Don Corleone]

you see everyone is saying something else. so doesnt really matter which you get first...BECAUSE YOURE GONNA HAVE TO GET EVERY ONE OF THEM IN THE END.

 

[BlackwaterPark666]

I remember the argument. But in all reality most of the music is kinda structured black metal. Even though certain elements make it not fit the genere......

Oh well it fucking rules.

 

[Forlorn Hope]

Morningrise!!!

Gor with Orchid or Morningrise- easily Opeth's best two albums

Totally agreed (about them being the best albums), but if you're into BWP, I'd go with Still Life first as it's closest in style, ah well, questions like these are pointless anyway, you'll always get 1,000 different answers and agreed with Don Corleone, you'll have to get them all in the end...
