You know.... I don't think I've ever listened to Still Life, and I'm a MASSIVE fan of everything they've done from Blackwater park on. Actually for me, Damnation is one of my favorites. That and Deliverance don't seem to be getting much love....
Opeth was a VERY hard band for me to get into. Saw them twice live and HATED them. Then somehow later when I heard Porcelain Heart, it just struck a nerve and I got everything they'd done Blackwater Park and onward. Each record grew on me in weird ways, they're all quite different. They've come to be one of my favorite bands, and I can't point out more than one or two songs in my possession of theirs that I don't love....
