Mayh

[Chaostar]

I've noticed that a large percentage of the fans here favor MAYH over the other recordings. I was curious as to why this is, beside the fact that the songs are great? Don't get me wrong, the album is very good, but how is it better than say Still Life? I want to hear opinions for only those who favor MAYH the most.

Hmm... I feel an incredible and special atmosphere from this album, which I don't find anywhere else - Opeth or not. It's more a piece of art than a piece of musique for me. I love every single second of this album, there isn't any moment where the emotion releases...
So, it's highly subjective, but that's why this is my favorite all time and all bands album...

It has the best flow of any Opeth album. Some great mellow intros exploding into heavy sections and a creepy concept that does not come over as cheesy.
Great stuff.
