Prophet178-----By "their best song is on Ghost Reveries" you mean Harlequin Forest right?







actually no. that is the 3rd best song on the cd.. my favorite one on that cd is the opener.. Ghost of Perdition,. 2nd best song on that cd is Beneath The Mire.

on this cd the best song IMO is the title track. BWP

the song's worth it just for that epic riff at about 0:50 onwards

Finally bought this, and needless to say I am highly satisfied. Album is win, but I'll have to listen to it a few more times before I rate it and decide if it's better than Ghost Reveries or not.



From the beginning of the clean section in the first track I was able to conclude already that it would utterly DESTROY Still Life. And it did. :-)

Your last statement is false



Still Life and Ghost Reveries is better than this

Nah, this is better . . .



Anyway, I don't see how you could decide that this is better than Still Life just from the first song . . .

Leper Affinity pretty much blows all other prog death songs on Still Life right out of the water. Riffs are much better, clean sections are actually memorable.

"For some reason The Funeral Portrait is my least favourite..."



I'll get hate for this but for me it's my least favourite because it just sounds like each part came from another song (solo from Leper Affinity, clean vocal harmonies from Drapery Falls, riff from title track - if I remembered those accurately). That and 'Dirge For November' stop this from being 5.
