“Okay, maybe 10 years if you think Ghost Reveries or Damnation are great. I don't“

We obviously have totally different opinions, Ghost Reveries is probably my fav and on par with MAYH.



This one still has some great jams, I don't get all the bashing tbh.

"@BigBlob When did they say that? I think they claim artists don't do what they want to, just do what their audiences want them to do. "

well, that's one way to change his words. In context it makes different sense. Especially with the following statement:



''it doesn't necessarily have to be completely new or something I haven't heard before. But I want something to make me go, 'Oh, that's odd. That's interesting.'''

Album Rating: 2.5

well yea, he's kinda right too, but that's not the point. he is equally guilty of the things he accuses those other bands for, at least with what he's doing now. if he had said that 10 years ago, when Opeth was still original and unique, I'd give him a pass.

hmm, yes, maybe. He's definitely not original nor has that twist in his music.

Fleeting Glance is so good, especially that climax towards the end omg.

Will O The Wisp might be a bit too Jethro-influenced, but it's so fucking beautiful that I don't even care

Tbf the bar graph is well spread

Album Rating: 2.0

riddle this Talons; how can this have a higher average when the max is 5 and Opeth have prior releases?

Album Rating: 3.3 | Sound Off

It should be the same as PC, maybe a bit higher

Album Rating: 3.0

Heritage? Yeah. This? No.

Album Rating: 3.0 | Sound Off

Heritage deserves an average of 4, at least. This should definitely be higher than PC, which is, in my opinion, on the same level as Deliverance.

Album Rating: 2.0

nah man this is the nadir of their career there's no doubt about that

Album Rating: 3.5

last three are all quite good

Album Rating: 3.0 | Sound Off

well, all the people liking it, apart from me saying I like it more than PC is enough doubt, I think.

Album Rating: 3.5

Criminally underrated.
