[QUOTE=mudvayne420]SUp People, i like opeth because they can go from Sick Death metal growls to soft mellow ****, i also like the way they continue the song when you think it ends it starts again...well i wanted to know if anybody can upload A Fair Judgement.[/QUOTE]

You don't deserve to listen to Opeth!

WHy don't i deserve to listen to them?

[QUOTE=I Am Vikingcore]You don't deserve to listen to Opeth![/QUOTE]
Hey! :mad:

My fav. opeth song would have to be A Fair Judgement, becuase i like the rhytmn to it after the verse.

A Fair Judgement rules, bacause of the aswesome accoustic solo part
/drools

YUP i forgot about that part, i like the way they play it on Lamentations.

*thought i would introduce myself*

Hey, i've recently got into opeth and i rele do luv the way they can change styles so easily. I only hav SL and BWP at the moment but plan to get more (being 14 is so frustrating for income :)) I rele want to hear the new album and older stuff.

Well, hey

Hello. Yeah, I started buying Opeth albums a year ago, when I was only 15, took me a while to get them all. But hey, it was worth it. I might be seeing them with Nevermore in October...maybe.

Hiya! Welcome!

As to your consern? Get My Arms, Your Hearse. I can honestly say that and Ghost Reveries is the best album they've ever made.


/awaits Still-Life fan-boys :lol:

so, are they touring with nevermore in the states? If so, does anyone have a list of shows, or a link?

metalica is better.

[QUOTE=cryforhelp]metalica is better.[/QUOTE]


Then post in the metallica thread.

Anyway, I think it would be great if they toured with Nevermore in the states.

Welcome to the one-and-only Opeth Thread!
So, what do you think of Still Life and Blackwater Park? They're both epic albums. You should save up to get My Arms, Your Hearse next :D But that's just my recommendation. :thumb:

Ghost Reveries disappoints me... :upset:

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Ghost Reveries disappoints me... :upset:[/QUOTE]

Was it The Grand Conjuration? :lol: :lol:

hah, im just asking cuz i neva listen to that track. :)

Thats one of the best songs. :upset: That and Ghost of Peridition was decent, and Baying of the hounds and Harlequin forest... those are all decent, though not off the charts amazing like Blackwater Park or Face of Melinda. Lacks a good climax IMO.

I tried to type a list of my favorite songs from Ghost Reveries, but I just kept going and going. I love that album.

Its a 2.5/5 for me... nothing incredible, but a good listen. I can't listen to it more then once per day, which is a lot different then any other Opeth album. Needs more heavy parts and more growls... and better guitar work.

I love Ghost Reveries. It could just be because I'm a fanboy though. Mikael could record him taking a dump and I would love it. :(

Maybe its just different from what you expected? Maybe the hype was too much. God knows it was huge.

IMO, i think Isolation Years is a great ending...although, ive heard that The Grand Conjuration is the end? Weird.

Isolation Years is the ending, though some say its not a part of the concept though it does seem to fit in... good song, but it just kind of ends... needs a little more, same with Beneath the Mire.

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Isolation Years is the ending, though some say its not a part of the concept though it does seem to fit in... good song, but it just kind of ends... needs a little more, same with Beneath the Mire.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I kinda get what your saying. Some of the songs are ...uhgg...lacking, and the guitarwork is definatly deworked. I mean, compare Baying of the Hounds and Wreath. But this just goes to show that Opeth can make a brilliant album without all the technical mumbo jombo. They are truly amazing at everything that they do.

But frankly...im too much of a fan-boy to care...or even think about the posiblity of it being dissapointing.

I could sing along to Harliquin Forest for ages... :p

Wreath isn't that technical either, check out The Moor or anything from the first 2 albums. Wreath is bada[I]s[/I]s though, I like that song more then anything on the new cd. :lol:

Second guitar solo... \m/

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Wreath isn't that technical either, check out The Moor or anything from the first 2 albums. Wreath is bada[I]s[/I]s though, I like that song more then anything on the new cd. :lol:

Yeah! I love that last part in Wreath 9;00 i think. It so awesome the way the two vocals come in, and later his growls go twin-style! Hell Yeah! :thumb:

Ghost Reveries is my least favorite Opeth album. It doesn't have the structure or lethality that I was hoping for. Although, I do like a select few riffs, I rarely listen to that album anymore. It has actually brought me closer to Deliverance. :lol: :lol: Maybe the next Opeth album will make me want to listen to Ghost Reveries, and I hope that day never comes.

Say what you will, but I think pre- MAYH Opeth sucks, and all the new stuff is miles ahead of it.

Awesome, awesome opener to an awesome, awesome album. :thumb:


[QUOTE=Flynn]Ghost Reveries is my least favorite Opeth album.[/QUOTE]
Same, I hope this is just a bit of a phase they go through, and return to metal madness on the next cd. :D Its still ok, but man Deliverance & ****[I]a[/I]tion were just so awesome that this was... not awesome.

[QUOTE=Kage]Say what you will, but I think pre- MAYH Opeth sucks, and all the new stuff is miles ahead of it.[/QUOTE]
MAYH-Dam[I]n[/I]ation are all better then Ghost Reveries...

You don't like any old Opeth? To bid you fairwell?

[QUOTE=Kage]Say what you will, but I think pre- MAYH Opeth sucks, and all the new stuff is miles ahead of it.[/QUOTE]

OMG, are you an angel?!

I agree like a big 123 like a mofo there! :thumb:

I think Morningrise and Orchid are miles behind the other albums. Production wise, song wise, and ..uhg....growl wise. :)

If those albums were redone, with better production and better vocals... I think they could almost beat any of the new stuff. Get Steven Wilson to work on those... :thumb:

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]

MAYH-Dam[I]n[/I]ation are all better then Ghost Reveries...

I think MAYH is the first truly good album they made. Orchid is horridly cheesy and sounds plain bad, Morningrise is mediocre to say the most. I mean, there are some good moments, even good songs, but Opeth didn't start making true quality music until midway in their career. Still Life and Blackwater Park were their first true masterpeices, and Ghost Reveries is the third.

I don't understand not liking an album because it's not heavy or technical enough. That's stupid to me.

Its just boreing... Wheres the sick riffing from Blackwater Park? The untouchable song writing from Still Life? The brutality of Deliverance? The emotion of Dam[I]n[/I]ation? This album has nothing but a few cool parts, and a good concept.

It just lacks as an album. IMO ofcourse. :p

You think ''To Bid You Farewell'' sucks?

I don't know you anymore. :angry: :angry: :angry:

Well, I think I've proven that the old stuff sucks, when there's only one song people talk about as being so great, whereas on Still Life, Blackwater Park, and D/D every song is worth a mention.

Ownage.

Great reply.

[B]Orchid[/B] is probably one of the most revolutionary Death Metal albums ever recorded. The recording wasn't that great, but you gotta remember, that was back in what, 1995? That album is a decade old, and a coin toss away from my all time favorite album...ever. Even today it holds it's place being totally original. The structure and song titles are unheard of!

I remember back when I bought that CD, I looked at the back and glanced at the first song ''In Mist She Was Standing'', didn't look further, and bought it. I'm very happy I did. The end of In Mist She Was Standing has a really elusive and Renaissance style of acoustic outro. I listen to that song quit often.

[B]Morningrise[/B], to me, is the ''Master Of Puppets'' of all Opeth discography. I can't describe it's complexity and technicallity within it's layers of well put together guitar riffs and flawless bass, both guitar and drums. Not to mention some of Mikaels best vocals both singing and screaming (IMO). I love the vibe on the entire album and it is easily the most devastating Death Metal album ever.



If you like Opeth, and have not had the chance to listen to these masterpieces, I strongly recommend both of these albums. They're epic. :thumb:

Morningrise might just be my favorite album of all-time and easily my favorite Opeth album.
