That song is the best on the album IMO.

That's kinda gross, why the hell do you have that as your avatar?

Special Brew 09-02-2005 01:45 PM

I think it looks cool :lol:

Plus, I can't really come with anything original for an avatar that I want to keep.

AMAZING!

This thread deserves a new name like all the other official threads, I think it should be something ridiculously corny like Demon Of The Forum or something.

[QUOTE=naboo]On everyone elses copy of Ghost Reveries, did the logo and the title come on the album cover? Mine just has the artwork without either of those.[/QUOTE]

Mine didnt have it either.

strat 09-02-2005 04:15 PM

OK, now I'm definitely sure that The Grand Conjuration is the best song on the album.

It's amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And to the people who argue that the main riff repeats too much...... it should because it kicks so much A[COLOR=Black]S[/COLOR]S!

The Cynic 09-02-2005 04:31 PM

^ Same here. When I put it into my computer, it said I had the UK version.

relliK 09-02-2005 07:47 PM

The whole left side of the cover is just aching for an "Opeth" symbol at the top, and a "Ghost Reveries" on the bottom.

Deth 09-02-2005 07:50 PM

I think the art looks great without the logo and stuff. It's powerful on its own.

LeperAffinity 09-02-2005 10:13 PM

My god, my wishes have come true. I was talking to my friend earlier today about how the two bands that released the two best albums of the year should tour together, and now it seems my prayers have been granted:

Sorry, but I have good reason, lol.

relliK 09-03-2005 01:46 AM

I have work on that ****in day.I always have work on Mondays.

Opeth and Tool would be cooler; that rumor floated around a while back. I would kill for that.

My thoughts on Ghost Reveries: I think this album is awesome. I need more time to decide where it stands in relation to all the other Opeth albums, but I don't think it knocks Still Life out of the top spot (for me). I absolutely love every track except Harlequin Forrest. It's pretty good, I guess; just my least favorite on the album. I'm not sure what my favorite song on the album is, but I know that Isolation Years is one of the greatest songs ever recorded. Absolutely un-freaking believable! :) I think GR is a concept album simply because of the way he references other lyrics from the album and other song titles. Beneath the mier is in "Baying of the Hounds", he talks about baying in at least one (possibly 2, I don't remember) song other than "Baying of the Hounds". The same occurs on MAYH and SL.

I'm glad to know that Isolation Years isn't a part of a concept because it was throwing off my whole interpretation of the album. I'll read the lyrics a few more times and post what I think the story is later. All in all, this album does NOT dissapoint! :)

\m/ I'm going to this, should rock.

Darkness 09-03-2005 09:47 AM

I think just Blackwater Park would work well.

Hells Bells 09-03-2005 09:55 AM

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]I think just Blackwater Park would work well.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, just plain Blackwater Park would sound better, seeing as how BWP is one of their best known songs/albums, any fan of Opeth would recognize it as Opeth's thread.

bball_1523 09-03-2005 10:18 AM

call it something with the word "Forest"

you guys hear about this upcoming Nevermore and Opeth tour in october? I seriously can't believe it.

[QUOTE=bball_1523]call it something with the word "Forest"

Oh my god...Nevermore and Opeth?! That's going to be insane. I'm definitely going.

The Flabbit Rides High 09-03-2005 10:30 AM

I also think Blackwater Park would be nice.

That and The Moor.

and maybe Master's Apprentises.
