Songs that showcase Opeths talent

[Phlash]

The Moor

 

[NFU]

[lucky999]

reverie/harlequin forrest
or
master's apprentices

 

[metal_wrath]

Opeth's talent is best when they are not playing notes or singing/growling. Then they are just Opeth. And thats just fine with me.

 

[Kir-ir-Bannog]

not any mo0re

Roger Moore???

 

[Towedwart]

 

[corn_off_the_cob]

definately Bleak

 

[AcousticJames]

Reverie/Harlequin Forest ftw.

 

[FearTheReaper]

Its cliche'd but Black rose Immortal. Also To bid you Farewell,and the twilight is my robe

 

[affinityband]

actually black rose immortal has some of the worst transitions ive ever heard. I wouldnt say it shows how good opeth are.

 

[Mad Poet]

Demon of the Fall
Godhead's Lament
Bleak
The Drapery Falls
Deliverance
Ghost of Perdition
The Grand Conjuration

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

Some of transitions may be a little... questionable, but I reckon 'Ghost Of Perdition' covers pretty much EVERYTHING you need to know about Opeth in one song, so I'd go for that.

 

[worldwide_suicide]

^+1, it's the best opeth song imo

 

[biggsy]

Absolutely... GoP encompasses everything Opeth is about. If you don't like GoP you virtually don't like Opeth afaics.

 

[one with misery]

When without a doubt.I think that when is the opeth's best song.Very brutal entrance then clean parts.Another musician can make 4-5 song with this song's riffs.But Mikael is using all of them in one song.

[metal_wrath]

[NeO Chick]

Very true.

 

[Blue_Jay]

The Drapery Falls was the song that got me into Opeth and I didn't like anything from Opeth until I finally heard(heard 9 other songs before that). Now they are my 2nd favorite band. Also The Moor is good also.

 

[Weazel]

The Final Countdown

Yea! Europe! *cries*

C'mon people!

Windowpaneeeee :/

Then maybe drapery


...or perdition... tough call.. and shit beneath the mire was great... and baying of the hounds.. lets just say its a toss up between Windowpane and pretty much Ghost Reveries. Oh and Drapery..

Fuck it.

Disregard everything I just said.


Windowpane.
