Haha, I love those vocals too.. they definitely sound beastly. I just like GR vocals more. It's basically because on BWP he doesn't even sound human, it's like a huge demon growling. I like to imagine Mikael screaming his a[COLOR="Black"]ss[/COLOR] off.

The growling in Deliverance is almost tired, like they were completely drained after I don't know... A wild sex action scene or something of that nature.

And I think early opeth and Agalloch are similar vocally. Agallock though, has more of an ambient-feeling going on, which is also acceptable and pretty much makes the overall music less bland, but sometimes very repetitive. But yeah vocals is the way to go.

[QUOTE=132WalrusesInMexico]Yeah, the only Opeth albums I own are Ghost Reveries, Damnation, and Blackwater Park.[/QUOTE]
Might I suggest Deliverance and Morningrise as your next purchases.

And Still Life. Refund GR to get it if needed.

I always forget to suggest Still Life. While I like Morningrise and Deliverance more than it, most people seem to disagree with me.

But still... BWP> all

Still Life goes soft in moments that aren't certainly needed soft... I don't know how to explain it.

They should've left Benighted and Face of Melinda (style, yeh) for the end, that way the album would never go dull. Then again, it all makes sense through those tracks, and the pace set and that stuff,so I'm hesitant and confused. :(

I don't know what you're talking about. To me Still Life seems to flow perfectly...almost everything about that album is perfect, apart from the production.

It flows perfectly, but I'm not always in to mood to listen to Benighted and Face of Melinda.

Man...

nevermind.

How about from trying to write and record two completely different albums simultaneously within a less-than-ideal studio environment?

No, talk bitch :angry:

:p

[QUOTE=Det Nosnip]How about from trying to write and record two completely different albums simultaneously within a less-than-ideal studio environment?[/QUOTE]

They do that in every album, really. The thing is they went overboard with this one and made almost double the effort on each half.

Nonetheless the bad recording thing is true, so hail the masterz.

Yeah thanks. I'd heard that Deliverance is really good.
And to the guy who told me to get a refund on GR, no thanks. I happen to like it a lot.

It's just Still Life is that much better. And that was only if you were low in CD money. :p

Okay, I can deal with that. Actually, I have no money :( but I don't want to get a refund on GR. I'll just wait until payday. Should I get Deliverance or Still Life first?

I'd actually say Still Life. But depends what you want. Deliverance is mostly a heavy album, with one soft song and one soft interlude type thing (like Patterns in the Ivy). Still Life has the [I]perfect[/I] balance of acoustic passages and heavy riffing.

Still Life is essential, get that. Deliverance is...

Boring.

Alrighty, Still Life is shall be. Thanks for your help.

[QUOTE=Eliminator]Boring.[/QUOTE]
I'm thinking more like... Heavy/brutal.

Deliverance is so far from brutal :lol:.

Blood Red Throne is brutal. Animosity is brutal. Iniquity is brutal. Opeth is not.

Opeth is like, atmospheric as all hell though, Deliverance is just heavy by Opeth's standards.

Whatever...

[QUOTE=Darkness]Whatever...[/QUOTE]
Yeah, pretty much.

It's just retarded to call Opeth brutal.

They can be pretty heavy, just not for very long.

Well, the wild sex scene thing sounds more fitting tbh.

So THAT's why Martin left. :eek:

I sleep to Damnation alot. Very soothing.

Lol, so do I.

My buddy said i was crazy for trying to sleep while listening to music the other day. I started to think I was the only one lol.

I find Morningrise and Still Life more soothing for sleep. :eek:

Yeah.

To Bid You Farewell is great for sleeping. More so at the beginning as it moves slowly.
