The Opeth Song That is Essential for Any Concert

[Dammnare]

In my opinion that would be MASTER'S APPRENTICES ! Such a amazing power you feel when the intro kicks in ! I just can't stop headbanging when this song starts I just go mad ! What do you think about a song that you feel like you would like to hear in any concert?

 

[DarkGift]

it's a good song by no means, but i am soooo tired of that song, was so happy when they played wreath instead of MA at the stockholm gig

i don't think any opeth song is "essential", i'd rather hear something new each time.

 

[Iki-ilkkuja]

None. They're not a band of a single hit. Everything goes.

 

[Junges]

The Moor
Wreath

 

[Nasty-Fire]

It's morning right now and just thought of drinking of beer so I'm confused.
I'd say... Deliverance, for sure!

 

[noura]

None. They're not a band of a single hit. Everything goes.

Yup.

 

[Words of Credence]

Their "hit" is demon of the fall.

 

[hexwind]

Blackwater Park maybe...
Well.. personally i think that whatever the shit they play i would accept it !!!!! Just come over guys ! play just ONE note

 

[ponie]

DOTF usually encourages a better mosh pit than other songs, but I don't see any songs as necessary. I'm looking forward to this new set list which supposedly only contains one song from the last tour.

I could probably only narrow the number of songs they "have" to play at any given show to about 50.

I know what you saying, but luckily for me they are comping to Russia this February.

 

[Silent Dance With Death]

Big City Nights.

 

[opethpainter]

this is becoming the "song you would like to hear next" thread.
anyway... after the setlist delusion of the latest tour, i'm at least sure of the songs i would NOT like to hear anymore...

 

[vhou812]

Big City Nights.

This would be the best thing ever. Particularly if they followed it up with "Make it real".

 

[Lateralus14]

Deliverance. But Wreath is badass too..

 

[Luann]

demon of the fall

 

[grey knight]

Anything from their albums, except the covers.

 

[Ghost Of Mother]

Requiem

 

[Lateralus14]

Demon of the Fall is a fan favorite but its one of the last songs I'd want to hear live because it loses so much from the studio version. Mike does a damn good job but he's never going to be able to get the perfectly demonic tone he gets on the record. Plus, there's two sets of chord progressions under the 2nd riff, and Per's keyboards sound good but they make one riff dominate the other so that it sounds completely different. Also, the looooooooong pause between "with the greeeeeeeeeey" and the acoustic riff...

Last time we saw Opeth my friend had to get home but I said "zomg not before Demon of the Fall" or something like that, but once I heard it...we left 3 minutes in.

 

[FRUGiHOYi]

I think Blackwater Park is the essential song, if such a thing exists.

 

[Kitiini]

I've never seen opeth live and I will see them at february for the first time.. too bad that they have removed Master's Apprentice from their setlist because thats the song I'd vote.
