3. My Arms Your Hearse
4. Blackwater Park
5. Still Life

Last two days BWP ja SL have been dominating my player, but it's not enough to pass any of my favourites. MR, O and MAYH are just so close to me.

 

[Lakestream]

I can't rank them......

 

[Melancholia]

Let's say that i prefer Morningrise and My arms your hearse a bit more : ) but then anyway all albums are so wonderful,i can't really decide

nah i like the production on them, gives them character and adds to the atmosphere

ORCHID - MORNINGRISE - STILL LIFE - MAYH. Haven't got BWP yet... starting to sound like some of you think it was "a step back" compared to the others...

 

[MetalManCPA]

The trend does seem to have the newer stuff lower, well, I'll break that trend:

1. BWP
2. MAYH
3. Orchid
4. Still Life
5. Morningrise

I think BWP's combination of style and production makes it the fullest of Opeth's albums - and to my ears, the better production and fuller sound incites more emotion.

 

[Blackspirit]

Still Life
Blackwater Park
My Arms Your Hearse
Morningrise
Orchid

That's how I like to see my list, but at
the moment I am getting really into
My Arms Your Hearse....
So it should be at the top for a couple
of weeks/months now...

2. My Arms, Your Hearse
3. Still Life
4. Orchid
