I am a man. You are a boy ghost.
If I like the newer stuff better does that mean I not as much of a fan as you? The band obviously like their latest stuff the best or they would have stayed with the older sounds.

I don't hate Porcelain Heart but it's by far the weakest song on the otherwise amazing Watershed album imo. It's basically just way too repetitive.

I rarely listen to Porcelain Heart and Hex Omega. Neither are good songs. The Grand Conjuration was a good song, except for the one riff similar to PH, (and was also played too long there).
Heir Apparent, Coil, Hessian Peel, The Lotus Eater, Burden are awesome songs.

I personally quite liked PH, true, it is repetitive and un-opethy but isn't their whole album? Watershed sounds completely different to all their other albums I think.

You DO NOT have to like <insert any Opeth album here> .
You have the right to dislike any of them. Stop bashing people for that like saying "Fuck you" or something. Being a fan and a fan-boy are different things.

I'm with you on that. But calling someone a lesser fan because they like the newer stuff is just stupid.

Discursion
I seriously enjoy the accoustic part... and the opening riff, and also the "ah ah ahhhhh" part is fine. It's not suppose to be a hardcore song that never stops. It's a song that takes its time, as the whole Watershed does, I guess. I do agree that it isn't one of their finest song, with not so great riffs and arrangements, but it's an OK song, and I think that kind of songs are somewhat necessery. I listen to so much Opeth and this is the kind of song I could be skipping, but at a certain point, I just get tired of OMFG kick-ass songs because I listen to them too much, and then I try out songs like Porcelain Heart (I could name more) and really, really enjoy them. I hope you understand what I mean, I'm not sure I do.
Oh, you don't like it? So don't hear it. Simple. Stop losing your time searching for "problems".
Morningrise is far less "repetitive." You rarely hear a riff twice (two places in the progression) in a song.
Repetition is not always a bad thing either. It's not the repetition in PH that annoys me. It's just the riff itself.
