Can someone who knows more about the history of Opeth and their discography than me explain why this album is generally not as highly-regarded as their other albums pre-buttrock?

idk. it was always my favorite back in my days of reverence for opeth

Because it’s way too shallow and flatline musically compared to everything else the did in their metal phase. Minus the lyrics which are usually well-written

I see. Well It's my favorite as well, as it seems to be their most accessible album.

Master's Apprentices was the first Opeth song I ever heard and I still can't think of too many better riffs

It was a horrible time for Mike and the band if I remember correctly, right? With his grandmother passing away and the band nearly splitting up? Is that worth watching, because it doesn't sound like it...
