Opeth Song With Best Leads

[Ermz]

I'd say with no doubt, Serenity Painted Death, with all that mad solo entwining. Close are The Drapery Falls, for obvious reasons. Moonlapse Vertigo, for having some mad leads in the vein of Serenity. Lastly, one that blew my mind was A Fair Judgement... that song is a lead/solo/blues orgy...

OH AND OF COURSE, the song i am learning to play, a true masterpiece... Epilogue.

Epilogue! I'm learning to play it too, but I can't get past that tapping part in the tab.

You said some of my picks already, so I'll add The Leper Affinity because I love the lead and that melody thing about 8 minutes into the song is great.

 

[Ermz]

haha, the tapping part... I thought it was challenging until I took the piece to my guitar teacher and he showed me how easy it was, and on top of that started shredding up and down various scales tapping... also played me some 'Hot For Teacher' (Van Halen).

Most of the leads in their songs are awesome, its pretty hard to decide on one partiular one...

 

[Fifth_Horseman]

Just today I've rediscovered how great the solo in The Funeral Portrait is...
Apart from that I agree on Serenity Painted Death and Epilogue.

And, speaking of leads, I just love the dual guitar harmony lines on Orchid and Morningrise.

 

[Yeah]

The Drapery Falls. A little short, but sweet ass sweet.

 

[Staffan]

A fair judgement

 

[ThePhilosopher]

The leads on any and all songs from Deliverance are downright awesome.
