12.09.13 | Start with Blackwater Park for sure |
Necrotica
12.09.13 | Start with Orchid |
fr33convict
12.09.13 | still life
in case you can't already tell, this list probably isn't going to help you at all |
demigod!
12.09.13 | my arms your hearse |
Athom
12.09.13 | I think Ghost Reveries is their easiest to get into. |
neurisis17
12.09.13 | I'd say anything before Heritage, not because Heritage isn't a great album (it is). You'll just get a better representation of what Opeth is that way. |
Wadlez
12.09.13 | Blackwater Paaaaaaaaaaaaaark |

12.09.13 | mayh [2] |
BMDrummer
12.09.13 | @fr33convict Yeah, I just put the list here out of necessity. |
reportingbird
12.09.13 | YOLO
You Obviously Love Opeth. |
SpiritCrusher2
12.09.13 | Still Life or BWP |
ButteryBiscuitBass
12.09.13 | Still Lyfe |
Emyay
12.09.13 | i'd check somes songs before i dove into a whole album considering your inexperience. check out:
the moor
ghost of perdition
the leper affinity
reverie/harlequin forest
demon of the fall
serenity painted death
bleak
deliverance
for the softer side of opeth:
to bid you farewell
benighted
face of melinda
harvest
a fair judgement
windowpane
hours of wealth |
MO
12.09.13 | ^ add credence to the soft stuff |
NapalmCrusader
12.09.13 | Still Life, MYAH or Blackwater Park. But if you are more involved with softer stuff damnation or watershed are ok |
BMDrummer
12.09.13 | Holy shit, I just listened to "To Bid Your Farewell". I am blown away! That was an experience! |
Emyay
12.09.13 | yeah forgot credence whoops |
Emyay
12.09.13 | hell yeah glad you enjoyed it man. your journey has begun |
BMDrummer
12.09.13 | Thanks so much! I'm going to go out and buy Morningrise soon. |
Acrosstheshield13
12.09.13 | Opeth begins and ends with a yawn. |
Necrotica
12.10.13 | I love how the first 6 comments were all different album suggestions |
Keyblade
12.10.13 | BWP or Ghost Reveries to start, but going through chronologically wouldn't hurt either |
CK
12.10.13 | Either BWP or MAYH. Neither are their best album, but the best places to start. |
Bergtatt
12.12.13 | BWP and Still Life are their most accessible...
My Arms Your Hearse is best. |
Mookid
12.12.13 | you start with an album |
Solaire
12.12.13 | Morningrise is my favorite. Folk and black metal influence galore. |
SCREAM!
12.12.13 | I started with Ghost Reveries and tbh I think it's a good one to start with. As far as Opeth albums go it might be their most varied so you get t oexperience all their sides at once! |
Solaire
12.12.13 | Ghost reveries might be the way to go. I listened to Damanation an Deliveration first. |
Keyblade
12.12.13 | SCREAM knows |
Emyay
12.12.13 | GR is probably the most accessible for non metal fans (not counting heritage and damnation) |
Uranium
12.12.13 | I started with Watershed... I'm not sure you should do that |
Minus.
12.12.13 | Start with downloading their albums |
Lotus
12.13.13 | paysage d'hiver |
ANJ45
12.16.13 | Either MAYH, Blackwater, or Still Life, those are the best, period. Also, pretty everything they've released except for their latest album, although even that's not bad. |
Dunpeal
12.17.13 | orchid was my fav KI character. those tittays |
parksungjoon
04.15.22 | you dont |

04.15.22 | I'd say press play and see what happens |
