Intro to Opeth Compilation

[PowerBob]

If you had to a compile CD's worth of Opeth tracks to use as an introductory device to someone who hasnt heard any of their work, what songs would you suggest? My list would be something like this.

1.To Bid You Farewell
2.Moonlapse Vertigo
3.Godhead's Lament
4.The Drapery Falls
5.Black Water Park
6.Deliverence
7.Hope Leaves
8. Beneath The Mire

The downside is I don't own Orchid or My Arms Your Hearse , but I will shortly

That's pretty sweet, although I don't think he did that well at selecting the best sections of songs. Also it needed more acoustic sections. And of course he should have ended it with the sweet ending riff of Ghost of Perdition.

But yeah it's pretty cool.

 

[Zephyrus]

2nd track of every album

I second this.

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

Maybe...

1. 'When'
2. 'Bleak'
3. 'Deliverance'
4. 'Windowpane'
5. 'Ghost Of Perdition'
6. 'The Twilight Is My Robe'
7. 'Advent'
8. 'Blackwater Park'

Maybe throw 'Epilogue' on the end for some awesome '70's vibes.
