BWP was their breakthrough album and where the SW influence became more apparent, so to me it signals the start of the mid-era. There weren't really any changes in the way Opeth went about things from MAYH to Still Life, unlike Still Life to BWP.

Still Life has a much 'cleaner' sound than MAYH though, regarding songwriting it definitely made a step in the direction BWP would take as well. Very much a transition album as I see it.

i thought the acoustic presence was much more pronounced on still life and blackwater park

Agreed dom, also I see watershed and still life as the bridges of the eras, exhibiting just as much from one as the other and are more the transition albums than belonging to one clearly defined era like the rest

Yeah hours of wealth too

Album Rating: 3.5
I find Hours of Wealth and Grand Conjuration the weakest on this album. It's all pretty solid but I'd say the one thing that GR lacks in comparison to the other metal albums is any form of intensity. Absolutely none or little here

Grand conjuration is the most intense on here

You kidding me? half of Watershed is better than The Grand Conjuration. It's just quite a bland song which lacks any momentum for me

All the metal epics on Watershed are better than The Grand Conjuration
