What Opeth song gives you chills?

[billyneverdies]

isolation years.

when i bought ghost reveries, i listened to it while looking outside at a cold, rainy day. those dreary, depressing notes seem to perfectly express that song.

the song is probably the saddest by opeth, bar possibly dirge for november.

 

[LichofHell]

The Moor definitely, that first non creepy acoustic passage, and then when the song kicks in....just fucking foreshadows the epicness of that whole album.

Yeah that, and then when it makes the transition from death to clean vocals...

***Godhead's Lament***

Searching my way to perplexion
The gleam of her eyes
In that moment she knew

Gives me chills everytime...

(Which is why I'm so bitter that Boston didn't get it on Gigantour)

The break around 3:00 of Godhead's Lament until around 5:48, I love the singing.

The whole song kicks ass, btw.

Hahaha, thats awesome, i didnt even bother to read the post above mine first.

Same part of the song and everything.

 

[Defenestrated]

Ghost of Perdition - about 6:30 on.
Reverie/Harlequin Forest - about 4:40 on.

ah shit, too many.

 

[Scourge of Malice]

WHEN CAN YOU TAKE ME FROM THIS PLACEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[in_absentia]

White Cluster at 3.42

Drapery Falls... Pull me down again and guide me into AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Isolation Years... Can't forget the years she's lost...

Outside in the park, the days move along, and nothing ever CHANGES (How his voice goes lower while saying that... sends me to a better place)

I'm not afraid of what you have just done.... but of what you've just become

from ''the forest folded its branches around me'' til the end of april ethereal

 

[billyneverdies]

when.

"this day wept on my shoulders..."

LOVE that line. plus i love the folky, leaping riffage.

edit:

i think the most chilling moment of opeth is the end of demon of the fall.

"that day came to an end; and she had lost in me, her credence."

then the riffs that come afterwards...aghhhhhhhh

to make it worse, its that point in the story that the ghost realizes he cannot be loved any more by his wife and is doomed to solitude. awesome. fucking awesome.

 

[Eyes Of The Insane]

Bleak

I always figured I was alone in thinking this. as he hits the low note at the end of 'changes' its so awesome lol.

 

[Punk Vic]

Atonement.

 

[Lothlorien]

ah shit, too many.

agreed.

 

[Defenestrated]

Hours of Wealth, too. The parts with the harmonized vocals, ooooh man.
