the most evil opeth song lyrically?

[Nasty-Fire]

Wreath would be a nice choice... The Leper Affinity too, but I shall do a little research to find out if there's anything more (such a vague concept) "evil" songs. Heh.

EDIT : Yeah but the Grand Conjuration is "made" to be evil... "The eyes of the devil". But I cannot choose the most evil song only from its lyrics... I just always remind the song's sounding in my head and my opinion changes.

 

[CadenZ]

For me, The Grand Conjuration is a perfect symbiosis of music and lyrics. The Ghost Reveries cover image is about what the song looks like in my head. Intimate, dark, passionate. The presence of evil is so thick that smoke swirls through the air.

 

[sundance]

I say Blackwater Park!

 

[emperor1]

I'm gonna go with Deliverance

 

[Francisco.]

Blackwater park for me

 

[Hedon-]

but tgc doesnt sound evil and the theme is pretty much bullshit u cant connect with real life in any way

 

[Nasty-Fire]

What are you saying? That for it to count it has to be evil accidentally?

The Grand Conjuration is as evil as it fucking gets.

Yes but there are other Opeth songs that (well for me...) sound more evil without necesserly talking about satan directly. We are not talking about the sounding here.

 

[Nasty-Fire]

So? Are there some special rules to judging evil in this thread or something?

Summoning Satan is pretty fucking evil.

Yes it's evil. But fuck it.

 

[Nasty-Fire]

So it sounds like because TGC is the most evil fucking Opeth song, it can't win the most evil long lyrically contest?

lol

Never said such a thing. I don't agree that it's the most evil song lyrically, or musically.
Like I said previously, "evil" is a pretty vague term.

 

[Noel]

You don't agree with the others, the others don't agree with you, that doesn't make this a shit thread.

 

[Noel]

Ok

 

[Hedon-]

i guess its all opinion, i cant find anything evil about tgc

 

[Arjen W.]

Well yeah, TGC may be evil in a... 'metaphorical' sense, if I could put it that way. The song (and most of the album) has this Satanic centered vibe, which could be decribed as being 'evil', but I don't think summoning Satan is as evil as raping and killing someone.

 

[Sad Madrigal]

LOL people....the answer is very simple:

Demon...Demon of the Fall

 

[Iki-ilkkuja]

The Grand Conjuration shurely has some evil lyrics, but change satan and devil to god and jesus... it could be a psalm or something.

 

[Hedon-]

LOL people....the answer is very simple:

Demon...Demon of the Fall

:zombie:

 

[Taran]

Most songs on the Blackwater Park album are very dark and evil lyrically. Blackwater Park, Bleak, and The Leper Affinity are my top three on that point

 

[Godhead59]

Yup, the more I listen to The Leper Affinity in light of this thread, the more evil I think it is. I mean, raping and murdering someone, and encouraging them to... erm... participate? cooperate?
That's pretty sick, lol. I love those riffs. Such a powerful song.

 

[Fields Of Sorrow]

To Rid The Disease is a very evil song lyrically.

^lol noob
