Moonlapse Vertigo vs. The Drapery Falls

[B Crouch]

Quite an easy one really :Spin:

 

[Jinn]

Not for me.

 

[Demon of the Fall]

The intro of Moonlapse Vertigo (you know, like the second part, before the singing) is one of my favourite parts by Opeth ever. But overall, I prefer The Drapery Falls.

 

[Moonstruck]

Moonlapse Vertigo easily, the intro, the riff before the outro and the outro itself are some of my favorite Opeth parts. The interlude is pretty awesome too.

 

[KennonKun]

If you find this to be an easy one, then why'd you make the poll, B Crouch?

Moonlapse Vertigo. Though the various riffs and the passages are just as choppy as The Drapery Falls, TDF does a better job connecting them and making them flow. Regardless, I find Moonlapse Vertigo's moments to be much more impressive, both emotionally and technically.

The intro of Moonlapse Vertigo is probably my favorite piece of Opethian(?) music. But for a whole song, I believe I must choose Drapery.

 

[Md Player]

not easy....
they're both great songs but,i guess i prefer The Drapery Falls

 

[omnipotence]

Moonlapse Vertigo, hands down.

Personally, I never found anything too special about The Drapery Falls...

 

[bogii]

drapery falls.... my least favorite opeth track

 

[Shamus]

The last riff in Moonlapse Vertigo is quite possibly my favorite Opeth riff, so I'll go with that one.

 

[gatedropper]

drapery falls.... my least favorite opeth track

Haven't seen them play this live then eh?

 

[Pessimism]

moonlapse vertigo for me - and with that its tied so far!

 

[Ermz]

Haven't seen them play this live then eh?

I have... on *EVERY.SINGLE.FUCKING.BOOTLEG.AND.THE.GIG.I.WENT.TO*. I am sick-to-death of that track. They even dissected it on www.guitar.com for fuck's sake. Playing the track on guitar only made me more sick of it.

But hey, with the nickname, what did you expect, haha...

 

[FUBAR]

I cant decide, so I'm choosing Moonlapse for no reason

 

[B Crouch]

Well, seems to be quite close, these are always so unpredictable these polls! I prefer TDF simply because of the vocals....and the intro/outro!

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]

the drapery falls...i never thought moonlapse vertigo had something special about it...

 

[Seth'Peth]

Looks like I tied it up with the "The Drapery Falls" vote. Is a tough choice though...but TDF is one of my favorites for mixing the soft with heavy.

[Jinn]

God... this is tough... I was introduced the Opeth via TDF... and it's been one of my favorite songs onwards.

But Moonlapse is enchanting and atmospheric, while still heavy.
gah....

 

[Delivered]

I've never seen what the fuss about The Drapery Falls is, whereas Moonlapse is one of my favourite songs ever.

 

[Feicht]

i love both songs, but moonlapse is better \m/
