The amount of creativity and and ambition poured into this album is so insane for a debut. I haven't sat down and listened to this from start to finish in a long time, but I always find myself putting on The Twilight is my Robe from time to time when I need a dose of nostalgia.



Also, Defarfalla \m/

The Twilight is my Robe oooooh yeah one of their best tracks. And those solos oh my.



I just finished the whole thing for the first time in forever too. Still holds up very very nicely. So creative and twisty-turny indeed.

Also, weren't these dudes like late teens / early twenties when they dropped this?

That new Abbey Road remaster is really really good, my fav version of this so far by a margin.

Mikael would have been 21 when Orchid was released in 1995

This might creep into my all-time fave debuts, along with ItCotCK and VHI.

THEE section of Weeping Moon reminds me so much of THEE section of Celestial Tower

Not listened to this before, but it's pretty good. I'm getting some Iron Maiden and (very early) In Flames vibes in certain passages of this, mixed in with that classic Opeth sauce.



Just put the Abbey Road remaster version on for a back-to-back comparison.
