Thanks dude..

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Thanks dude..[/QUOTE]
Don't limit yourself to Black Water Park
It's good, but it is only a tiny taste of what opeth is like.
For a first Opeth Album I'd suggest BWP because its the easiest album to submerge yourself into for most of the public. Although BWP is the most accesible, I'd try Still Life.
Just my opinion though.

Alright..thanks to you to

Glad to help.

:)

Unless your from Australia :rolleyes:

I own ****ation, Deliverance, Blackwater Park and the Lamentations DVD.

Opeth is the best. Period.

Morningrise is their best album BTW. I'll be purchasing it within the month.

Opeth are an amazing band. incredibly creative and very skilled
been listening to them non-stop for like a month

theres a new diary entry on the site, mostly bout a new years eve party though (and the weirdest pic of mike ever)

I still don't get the obsession with Morningrise. Still Life+BWP all the way!!

morningrise is addictive, but for a while you may get sick of it. I never get sick of still life, but morningrise and bwp are my favourite albums. BTW, do you think the lineup of Opeth is the best ever? I mean if you had the chance would you change the lineup, say put johan or anders back in? I feel the lineup to be perfect how it is, it would be cool to have anders as a full time piano player though

To CARMEN77 if he shows up here, check out Orchid.

I got Orchid about a week ago and I love it. I never thought I'd be able to listen to a 3 minute piano piece and love every second of it. :)

I'd never change the lineup (sans adding members). IMO, the band is at its peak right now, the Martins are both excellent musicians, alot more well-rounded and diverse than johan and anders. In fact, that's a big part of why I hardly find myself listening to the first few albums...it's just not the same without them, I feel that Lopez and Mendez better embody the kind of band that Opeth is. IMO, there could never have been a song like "Face of Melinda" or an album like Dam nation without them.

Hah...try "Star Crossed" by Arcturus. Best. Piano. Intro. EVER!!!

Any new info on their new album????

I just started to get into opeth, the more I listen the more they amaze me. They can pull off a song like hope leaves, which I really like, and then they have brutal, wicked death metal songs.

Is there any other songs people can suggest the are like hope leaves by them

the Whole ****ation album, Credence, Benighted and Harvest.

you might also like to bid you farewell

can you guys recommend me some good opeth albums?thx much appriciated

for a new opeth listener i recommend blackwater park, simply because it is pretty much what opeth is all about. Still life is another great album to get into opeth.

Well I dont know. Personally the way I got into Opeth:

I was in a heavy mood and I wanted to listen to something brutal, so I asked my friend what's a good death metal band he instantly said Opeth. So from hearing much praise about them and now this reccomendation I decided to go to the record store and get a CD.

So 30mins later I come hope wth Dam[b]n[/b]ation. It wasn't at all what I was expecting but it was an amazing album. I listened to it twice through and then thought "man, these guys kick some serious ***"

In 30mins I come home from the record store with Deliverance. Listen to that twice through and absolutely loved it. In another 30 minutes I get home with Blackwater Park, and that absolutely blew me away.

Fast forward about 2-3 weeks, and I owned the rest of the albums, and the DVD. These CDs have been on constant replay for the last 6 months. Seriously, I cannot believe that I had not listened to these guys before.

Yeah that dude should have told you that Dammnation was not a death metal album. It's good that you have enjoyed it anyway though, it's a brillant album.

MOS DEF the best opeth song with out a dought is 'the leper affinity'
anybody agree?

Ive got the dvd but not the studio album of ****ation. Do you guys think its worth buying if i own the dvd?

I this the Drapery Falls is their best. Haunting guitar riffs, perfect transitions, and a great mix of clean and growling vocals. Amazing

I keep coming back to "Godhead's Lament." I dunno, though..."best Opeth song"? Maybe I could pick a "best Opeth song for x mood," but best overall would be pretty **** near impossible. I mean, you CAN'T compare a song like Demon in the Fall to Harvest or Death Whispered a Lullaby, because they're completely different songs.

"Bleak" is my favorite all-around, with "The Moor" probably at a tie. "Blackwater Park" best for the heaviest. "Benighted" for best acoustic guitar. "Black Rose Immortal," "Windowpane," and "A Fair Judgement" for the most complex, cool melodies and harmonic content.

The Moor all the way for me.With The Leper Affinity coming in second.

Dark Suns = Most similar band to Opeth in terms of genre I've ever heard. Every should check them out if they can be found.
