[QUOTE=Jude]Me too, sort of...although the best feeling ever is buying a new album when you barely know any of the music on it, and discovering it all on the actual CD/vinyl. Downloading first takes away from that.[/QUOTE]

True.

I bought every Opeth album without knowing the songs.

Except Bleak. It's the only song I downloaded before buying the CD's.

NP - Bleak... *cums*

I bought Morningrise without ever hearing Opeth before, I was quite impressed.

What order did everyone buy the albums?

Intresting new subject for a list... :cool:

I think mines was:

Blackwater Park
Ghost Reveries (It seemed like the obvious choice, as it came out like a week after I bought BP.)
Still Life
Morningrise and My Arms, You're Hearse. (Same shop, same day obv)
Orchid
Damnation amd Deliverance. (Recieved through the post on same day)

Morningrise
Still Life

That's it for me so far, unfortuntely.

what the hell are you thinking?!! GET THEM!

:smoke:

I will, I will...

...with time. :p

NP Blind Guardian - A Dark Passage

I have BP. I bought that the day it was released.

take it to the "what you listening to?" thread you traitor!


hehe

Order of purchase:
1. BWP
2. Deliverence
3. Damnation
4. SL/MR at same time

I obtained the rest through 'other' means, until I get more funding.

Job ftw. :thumb:

The only one I need is Morningrise, but I'm having trouble finding it.

A friend of mine picked SL and MR up for me when he was vacationing in Arizona, so I have no idea how hard they would be able to find anywhere else.

I've really been getting into Opeth since I bought Blackwater Park and Orchid a few days ago. Blackwater being my favorite of the two, but I can't stop listening to In The Mist She Was Standing, it's just so awesome. Mikael is an amazing sonwriter.

If you like both those, step it up a notch and get Morningrise and Still Life. :D

My favorite is BWP, but I have no reasons to back up why I like it more. :)

SL is number 2 though.

I'm getting My Arms You Hearse right now, I'm expecting big things.

It's very, very good.

Hmmm, order of purchasing....

1. Deliverance
2. Damnation
3. My Arms, Your Hearse
4. Ghost Reveries
5. Still Life
6. Orchid
7. Morningrise
8. Blackwater Park

BWP was very hard to find, I wanted to buy it sooner, but...

I found Damnation and Deliverance hardest to find. Then Blackwater Park, even though it was the first one I got and found it in the shop straight away. That was the only time I've seen BP in a shop.

The only two Opeth albums I can regularly find are Ghost Reveries and Still Life. I've seen all the over albums once or twice but I don't think I've ever found Damnation.

I bought:

1. BWP
2. Deliverance and Damnation
3. Morningrise, MAYH and Orchid
4. Still Life
5. Ghost Reveries

BWP = best album ever concieved, its amazing. pure genious

BWP is actually my least favorite of all the newer Opeth releases (Still Life - present). It starts out so good, Leper Affinity, Bleak, Harvest and The Drapery Falls are four of my absolute favorite Opeth songs. Then Dirge For November, with IMO the single worst intro to any Opeth song. After that the album just loses me until the title track.

Hmmm. Let's see.

Order of Purchase:

1. Ghost Reveries (Purchased)
2. Deliverance (Purchased)
3. My Arms, Your Hearse (To purchase, aimed and shi)
4. Morningrise (To purchase, aimed and shi)
5. Still Life (Haven't seen it)
6. Blackwater Park (seen it, too expensive)
7. Orchid (Haven't seen it)
8. Damnation (Haven't seen it)

The order is pretty much preferences. Depends on my mood with Blackwater Park. "Dirge for November" has its ups and downs with me, but I prefer to skip it, usually.

You havent seen orchid??!! :eek:

Orchid is the only Opeth i have seen in the cd stores.

Purchases:

I've seen it sometimes, but it's strangely expensive.

My Orchid was 30 dollars Canadian, at HMV.

My Orchid was $15 at FYE :cool:.

Haha, sounds like we're talking about the flower. I bought minf for $17 and FYE. FYE has tons of good CDs, but are so overpriced.
