Me neither. That ending, with Axe going berserk in his signature jazzy style, might be my fave moment from the whole record.

Hex Omena is good but I just think the rest of Watershed is even better, aside from Porcelain Heart.

Hessian Peel has to be my all time favorite Opeth song. It introduced me to the band and that's such a monster of an introduction.

Hessian peel is number 3 for me. Used to be my favorite here but it's had less replay value over the years than the other two for me

'I would add All Things Will Pass, Porcelain Heart, and Hex Omega to my list too.'

It may be the 'worst' song beginning with 'H' on Watershed, but the alphabet is apparently an unforgiving beast. Porcelain is an acquired taste, bit of an oddball perhaps - I understand why it catches some flak amongst the fanbase. I don't mind it myself, certainly not amongst their best work though.

"I don't mind it myself, certainly not amongst their best work though."

Same. Like the track, quite a bit even, doesn't rub me the wrong way like it does to some others.

Demon, it's called 'flak', short for FLIEGERABWEHRKANONE.



I share this fact when I can.

So much flak in Catch 22. What a book.

I saw The Garroter copping some flak. Honestly my fav song on the album. Played it more than other song on here

'Demon, it's called 'flak', short for FLIEGERABWEHRKANONE.'

Excuse my ignorance but is that a thing? Noted. I have amended for your viewing pleasure. Honestly that's something I'd say but never usually write/type. Thinking about it the 'ck' doesn't look right.

I always liked The Garroter very much too

Also that bass solo doubled with vocals is *chef's kiss*
