In an old Suomi Finland Perkele interview Mike says something like "I recommend you´d check out Still Life, I think it has something for everyone and the experience may even be ... life-changing.."
Now...When I first readed the sentence I didn´t give it much notice but recently it has struck me...
Still Life was the first Opeth I really got into. That particular album changed my fucking life. And not in a minor way, but TOTALLY.
It changed the way I think about music and riffs in general...and the album inspired me to write own music, which led to Farmakon. And to Thales. Which are the main points of my life and the stuff I think about all the time. And it has led to some other major things too, of which I´ll stay silent.
Any similiar experiences, with some other albums perhaps?
