What do you think of Deliverance?

[Detric]

I thought it was okay in the beginning, but it got better and better and is now one of my fav Opeth releases..

Id rank it among the greatest stuff that Opeth has ever done...easily in the top ten

i wub how people always respond seriously to these threads bumped from 3 years ago

That made me burst out in laughter.

I loved Deliverance from the first moment I ran the CD and heard Wreath. It's been good ever since. BTPISO is my favorite track from that album.

 

[Profanity]

I don't think there's particularly any standout tracks from Deliverance.

 

[Manbient]

Worst opeth album. But the songs Deliverance and For Absent Friends are fantastic. A Fair Judgement is pretty good too.

 

[scorpian007]

Best tracks: Deliverance, A Fair Judgement, For Absent Friends and Masters Apprentices. Wreath is okay and BTPISIO is OK but not really fond of those two much.

 

[omnipotence]

I love it, more than Blackwater Park and even more than the first two albums. Its the Opeth album that packs the most punch, aggression-wise.

 

[scorpian007]

Blackwater Park and Deliverance are tied at 3rd. Still Life is 1, MAYH is 2

 

[Manbient]

listen to the older albums you fuck.

i think the combination of deliverance and a fair judgement is some of the best opeth you can here... combine those two songs and you have some super progressive music.

First Opeth album I ever bought. Bought it after hearing Master's Apprentices then Deliverance like a month later. Then after hearing songs like To Bid You Farewell and the album Still Life, I was super amazed and thought Deliverance was not as good. Then I later found respect for Deliverance for the atmosphere and the and the subtle technicallity, rather the more apparent technicallity in melodies and acoustic/riffs like on Still Life, and enjoyed it once more. I appreciate all things Opeth.

Well, Deliverance is my least listened to, and least liked... however a fair judgement is rather great... I don't know why I don't like it as much, probably because it was so different to other albums, aspects of it are great, but just not in total, for me anyways

 

[Melinda's Lover]

It's better than MAYH, that's for sure.

 

[scorpian007]

I listen to Orchid and Morningrise heaps and think theyre both fantastic

 

[fps]

good but repetitive to the point of annoying... plus that heavy ending of fair judgement isn't something i usually get beyond- so wrong!

 

[w012thless]

Deliverance kicks ass....my 2nd favorite Opeth album behind Still Life of course..I used to just skip Wreath but now it's like one of my favorite Opeth songs after hearing it 223 times.

 

[affinityband]

Deliverance in fairness has good riffs, but the production is so boring. its almost to perfect to listen to. its so stale and has no warmth. some of the riffs do drag on a bit, like most of wreath. i listen to the first riff on that and then skip the track if i ever find myself listening to deliverance. then quckily it reminds me 'why am i not listening to still life or MAYH?'

 

[Shadows Skulk]

As far as Opeth's catalogue, it's not great, but as far as music in general, it's very good.

It gets too much hate around here.
