Nocturnal: Serious Opeth List

Nocturnal 04.10.14	Which album should I listen to next.
Nocturnal 04.10.14	bbys.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	opeth lists should be a bannable offence but anyways still life and heritage are the only albums worth a shit get those
climactic 04.10.14	yeah what the shit does that mean
climactic 04.10.14	this nigga 70 years old or smth
FearTomorrow 04.10.14	"still life and heritage are the only albums worth a shit" wat, does not compute GET MORNINGRISE!
Diamondize 04.10.14	GET MORNINGRISE! [2]
mandan 04.10.14	"but anyways still life and heritage are the only albums worth a shit get those" Lol. If any, their first 3 are the ones to get. Most will tell you otherwise though. Heritage isn't a bad idea though.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	morningrise is shit all the other albums are shit. ive said it before and ill say it again. this is how opeth works there is orchid. then there is orchid 2.0-3.0. then there is mega orchid 4.0/mega orchid which is still life. then there is orchid 5.0-9.0. and finally there is black orchid. really what it comes down to is this: you can listen to any one orchid (0 through 9.0) and you have essentially heard every opeth album. BUT it is in your best interest to listen to orchid 4.0/mega orchid aka still life because it is the best version of the exact same album. once you have heard any one of the 9 versions of the same album in varying levels of quality stop there because everything else is the exact fucking same and nobody gives a fuck. there is only one choice from here. listen to the black orchid. the black orchid is like the ugly duckling of the pack. all the other ducklings are exactly the same except that the mother trivially decides to play favourites with them, but the ugly duckling is oh so very different. the ugly duckling turns into a BEAUTIFUL SWAN black orchid is this ugly duckling and it will blossom into a beutiful mega orchid in its own rights because it is not the same as all the other orchids and therefore is the only other orchid worth listening to
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	"Most will tell you otherwise though." most are right.
climactic 04.10.14	what the fuck did i just read? reads again what the fuck did i just read? [2]
Diamondize 04.10.14	So... listen to Orchid.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	you read the trvth about opeths albums u have all been deceived. did none of you guys see my opeth discog list on silent potato? i went into GREAT DETAIL about how each album is just orchid rerecorded in a slightly different setting or foresty shack.
climactic 04.10.14	orchid orchid 2.0 my arms your hearse my arms your hearse 2.0 my arms your hearse 3.0 my arms your hearse 4.0 damnation (?) ghost reveries ghost reveries 2.0 heritage (? 2.0)
climactic 04.10.14	fukkin nerds want the new album to be my arms your hearse 5.0 but that shit will never happen
Diamondize 04.10.14	A nerd can dream.
JamieTwort 04.10.14	Still Life is one of the weaker "Orchids". It's just like the previous "Orchid" but nowhere near as good. Honestly I'm really surprised you like Still Life the most, potsy.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	you've got it all wrong clim here is the correct ranking Mega Orchid 4.0: Orchid recorded in a swamp of mourning aka Still Life Black Orchid: Orchid recorded after time travelling to the past to the early 70's and having the entire album performed by King Crimson instead Orchid 8.0: Orchid recorded in a haunted house during a seance aka Ghost Reveries Orchid 5.0: Orchid in a misty swamp instead of a swamp of mourning aka Blackwater park Orchid 9.0: Orchid played in a shed under water aka Watershed Orchid 7.0: Orchid played in a creepy room aka damnation Orchid 6.0: Orchid played in a slightly different creepy room aka deliverance Orchid 3.0: Orchid played in a forest aka my arms Orchid 2.0: Orchid played on a bridge by some water aka morningrise Orchid: Orchid played in a field of Orchids aka Orchid bare in mind that everything following Black Orchid is ultimately interchangeable because they are all the fucking same frittata sounding album
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	"fukkin nerds want the new album to be my arms your hearse 5.0 but that shit will never happen" new album will be Black Orchid 2.0, the ugly duckling that gets away with slightly more fusion bullshit because the first ugly ass duckling already broke the moma duckling in for him
climactic 04.10.14	"swamp of mourning" can i name my DSBM band this, ill give you credit in the liner notes
climactic 04.10.14	"Orchid 7.0: Orchid played in a creepy room aka damnation Orchid 6.0: Orchid played in a slightly different creepy room aka deliverance" they just put the little girl outside the room instead of inside
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	shore dude absolutely
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	"they just put the little girl outside the room instead of inside" lol ye
Nocturnal 04.10.14	Oh man this is confusing. Im just gonna d/l the discog and start from the beginning.
Dr7 04.10.14	Depends on what you want to hear next from them. Something Heavier, rougher sounding: My Arms Your Hearse Melodic, stripped down: Damnation Prog Rock Opeth: Heritage Something close to Ghost Reveries: Blackwater Park/Watershed It's a little difficult to recommend Still Life as it sounds, literally like a bridge between MAYH and BWP, which doesn't help you much other than the fact it's a superb album. Deliverance is a good album, but I couldn't recommend it if you're only just getting into Opeth. As for Orchid and Morningrise, I can't really comment as I'm not fond of the production, but that's just personal preference. tl;dr: My Arms Your Hearse, Still Life and Blackwater Park. Enjoy!
Nocturnal 04.10.14	Thanks a lot dude thats the post I was waiting for. ^
Keyblade 04.10.14	Holy shit fuckin lmao. Don't you dare ditch us again Potsy
Relinquished 04.10.14	lmao potsy

MO 04.10.14	"orchid orchid 2.0 my arms your hearse my arms your hearse 2.0 my arms your hearse 3.0 my arms your hearse 4.0 damnation (?) ghost reveries ghost reveries 2.0 heritage (? 2.0)" pretty much but watershed definitely isn't GR 2.0
Tunaboy45 04.10.14	Go Blackwater Park next
Skoj 04.10.14	Orchid 15604.0.0.0.4 what the fuck are you fucks talking about? Dude, go listen to Blackwater Park and Still Life. Drapery Falls was my first foray into Opeth 8 years ago and that was all I needed.
Tunaboy45 04.10.14	^ [2]
MO 04.10.14	lol drapery falls is bottom tier on bwp
ti0n 04.10.14	"because Mikael Akerfeldt is my nephew" does that suppose to make me laugh or wut
Skoj 04.10.14	lol opinion opinion opinion
Nocturnal 04.10.14	"does that suppose to make me laugh or wut" Its supposed to make you shut the fuck up and get the fuck out of my thread u dink.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	"pretty much but watershed definitely isn't GR 2.0" he's right, its Orchid 9.0 or whatever.
Lord(e)Po)))ts 04.10.14	"Oh man this is confusing. Im just gonna d/l the discog and start from the beginning." dude obvs some miscommunication here that is the exact last thing that i recommend you do
MikeC26 04.10.14	Damn Potsy you're on some shit today. You've never been more off.
NordicMindset 04.10.14	I always thought Damnation would be their angriest album ever based on the title
