I think the fact that Opeth just recently toured might have played a part in it.

[QUOTE=Diabolus in Musica]I think the fact that Opeth just recently toured might have played a part in it.[/QUOTE]
That's probably a good reason, and there are always new fans coming in, and the talk of old albums is always constant as well.

[QUOTE=Animosity]Alright, I have a question not relating to Opeth, but related to this thread...

Last time I looked at the number of replies, it was somewhere's around 5,000, and it wasn't too long ago I remember it. How did this thread skyrocket up to nearly 14,000 posts :confused:[/QUOTE]
Because theres like 3-4 new people that just post like mad. :p

I haven't been listening to much Opeth lately...

Other stuff with Mike in it though. Mostly The Human Equation by Ayreon...

Yeah I haven't been listening much either, just a song or two here and there.

[QUOTE=Dunkelheit509]Yeah I haven't been listening much either, just a song or two here and there.[/QUOTE]
Same here. It's because it's spring. It's Porcupine Tree season. In September I'll probably start going heavy on the Peth again.

Yeah I listen to lighter stuff in the summer, heavier stuff in the winter. My friend makes fun of me for listening to Sublime too much these days.

I listen to a quite a bit of sublime. I don't really change what I listen to by the season but by my mood.

[QUOTE=Diabolus in Musica]I listen to a quite a bit of sublime. I don't really change what I listen to by the season but by my mood.[/QUOTE]
I do too, I guess the season just affects my mood and thus my music selection.

Does anyone else in here love "A Fair Judgement" like I do? It's the only song that has actually made me cry.

Guys, i only have Morningrise, Still Life and Ghost Reveries. Which other Opeth's album should i get next??

*cough [SIZE="7"]Blackwater Park[/SIZE] cough*

Correct. Also, Deliverance.

And Damnation.... hell man finish it off with Orchid.

You might as well just get all of them, they each have their own special qualities that add to to the Opeth legacy.

Yeah, Orchid's my favorite album. The twilight is my robe is one of the best songs I've heard, such emotion.

I actually haven't listened to too much of My arms, your hearse. Pretty good album, right?

[QUOTE]Perhaps I'm just a little dissappointed with the setlist (could have been slightly better, imo), or that I ended up stuck with a chick who wasn't enjoying herself for the majority of it. Maybe I just have my knickers in a twist because I've had 4 hours sleep in the last two days. Anyway, none of that stuff is even remotely Opeth's wrongdoing. I guess I just didn't enjoy myself as much as I thought I would have.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I didn't think the setlist was that amazing, but did like don't get me wrong.

The opening riff to Wreath crushes souls into Damnation.

PS: Blackwater Park the song is soo good.

MAYH is a Great album. Don't associate me with black metal die hard fan but the weak production contributes to the whole sound - dark and dirty.

And yes twilight is my robe is the best song on orchid.

/Is bidding for Damnation and Deliverance on eBay.

35 Quid. Not bad for both.

:smoke:

My favorite song is The Apostle In Triumph:)


Just thought I should bump.

Twilight is my Robe was the first song off the album that I heard. Fell in love with it right away. Looked for tabs for it but never found any PT...

I have yet to pick up that album...something I said I would do many times in here...

Do you still not have a PT for it?

Still don't have one...never found one.

They have tons of GP versions.

I always forget how bad you brits get ripped off on cds and video games and the like. That's a ludicrous amount for 2 cds!

[QUOTE=Crysiss]They have tons of GP versions.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I know. I don't have GP though :p My friend could get it for me, so its ok.

These guys are one of my all-time favorite bands. They are certainly not afraid to make a song longer than the norm, which is definently something I like because you can't really say to much or convey a message with a 5-minute long song.

Well, yeah... but that's because it's bidding, In the shops I'd get them for about 8 pound each.

Anyway, I found a "Buy it Now" price on both of them. So I ordered both.

That completes my Opeth collection. :smoke:

I'm sure The 'Peth boys would find a way. :p

:chug: <3 Orchid. In Mist She Was Standing is a very great song, my personal favorite from the album.

After I bought and listened to Morningrise for a few months, I bought MAYH, listened to it and thought at the time it was Opeth's worst album of the 3. I never listened to it after the first listen, until a few months later. I listened to it on the headphones when I went to sleep almost every night, later memorized all the lyrics and just recently it happened to occur to me that this is their best work to date. I couldn't stand the album at first, but it broke a barrier in my musical taste. There's something about MAYH that burned in my head, and I can't explain how.

As of now, here's my updated Top Five Opeth Songlist:

1. Epilogue
2. Black Rose Immortal
3. In Mist She Was Standing
4. Karma
5. Master's Apprentices
