Your Least Favorite Opeth Song?

[Triumphant Apostle]

I think it is very cool to see that alot of people are saying completely different tracks! I personally LOVE the title track of Blackwater Park and would say that is in my top three Opeth songs of all time! I also love Under The Weeping Moon but I have seen them both listed as least favorites..Oh well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I honestly love 99% of their stuff but if I had to pick I would say Into The Frost Of Winter. It isn't HORRIBLE but it is(especially production-wise but I am aware it is in essence an unfinished song) not up to the typical Opeth standard! Other than that I can't honestly think of one that stands out as one that I always skip other than that!

The acoustic start ISNT the actual start of apostle in triumph, the song doesnt start till a minute or so in, the first acoustic part was actually part of requiem that was supposed to be cut.

 

[BlackwaterPark666]

Nectar , Benighted, and Harvest.

Good songs ,but just not something I couldnt listen to everyday.

I don't know If I could call any my least favorite, unless Requiem counts. I've kinda got a few I skip over, so I consider them the least faves, as a collective.

Orchid-Almost the whole thing. I love certain riffs in certain songs, but haven't gotten in to the album as a whole.

Morningrise-All wicked!

Mayh-Ditto!

Sl-Face of Melinda. Seems a little too uneventful for me. The riff after "I took her by the hands..." is great though.

BWP-I can't get into most of this album. Leper, most of Bleak, Dirge, And Drapery are pretty great, but overall, this is my least fave.

The two new songs are cool in a different way, but i don't even think of them as true opeth, so I won't count them....

black rose immortal (it's perfect up to 5:50 more or less)...dirge for november (it would be perfect if we could erase that same riff in the middle)...bleak (it's a nice song, but the chorus repeats a lot)...

the rest is ok for me!

MUAHAHAH! I have made the dirge Edit... search around for it... shoulds be tagged "Opeth - Dirge For November (Bumblefoot Edit)" and it is encoded at 160.

I didn't read that. This isn't happening. Why am I holding this shotgun..?

The duo of The Twilight is My Robe and Forest of October is nothing short of amazing. I choose Orchid any day over Morningrise-- those being the only two non-Fredrik Nordstrom produced albums [correct?]

And whoever said that Dirge for November is boring because the middle part is repetitive... Honestly, I think that's the purpose. That's my favorite [tentative] cut off of BWP and for that exact reason. That section is simply hypnotic... it drones on and sucks me under. Wicked songwriting, indeed.

My least favorite track... Hm... This requires thought.

The Night and the Silent Water, most likely.

Dirge For November is the most common pick. Well, I say you're all crazy.

And deaf, too, if they think Dirge is the worst song...
