Most Intense Opeth Song?

[biggsy]

I'd say either the start of Ghost of Perdition (Ghost ooof Perditiooon!) or Deliverance.

Deliverance isn't intense. Its pretty light by all standards. The awkward breaks and rhythms really interrupt the intensity. It also lacks a serious tone, sort of sounding like the band is just jamming. I'd say Blackwater Park or By The Pain i See in Others

 

[MetalManCPA]

The Funeral Portrait

I consider this song the most relentless intense in-your-face Opeth song. It appears this will be the one Opeth song I always "needed" to see/hear played live but never will, since I'm 0-for-5 so far.

Deliverance, Wreath, MA, Karma, DotF, etc.

I find Harvest intense in a different way. I think you know what I mean.

 

[Nichtsicher]

Wreath

 

[Anza]

Might add Baying of the Hounds and Ghost of Perdition to my list ^^

 

[LightningLixxx]

the chaotic explosion at 4:07 in The Funeral Portrait is the single most intense Opeth moment I'd say

For the win!
But Ghost of Perdition is up there too.

April Ethereal, no question.

 

[Black Rose]

Blackwater Park without a doubt.

 

[FUBAR]

Karma all the way

 

[Splintered Vision]

Blackwater Park without a doubt.

Deliverance. Everytime that song comes on my iPod when I'm working out, everything gets amped up for the entire song. I bike faster, I walk faster, I lift faster... That song gets me so fucking pumped.

hahaha me too. also anything by meshuggah especially bottom

 

[in_absentia]

[Pethical]

demon for me. gets me every time

 

[Hypnos]

Karma all the way

[Predator's Portrait]

Deliverance followed by Master's Apprentices. The drumming gives it a little extra something. Lopez was best on that album.

 

[An Absent Friend]

Face of Melinda's Distortion parts..

 

[metal_wrath]

Most intense (evil) IMSWS

Most intense (brutal) Masters Apprentices
