Opeth (metal, fan, concert, quote, bands)

Yeah Atonement is good. Reverie/Harlequin Forest is good musically but the lyrics just kill it for me. I don't think the riffage on GR is as good as on previous albums.

Opeth.
Is.
Amazing.

Still Life and Damnation are my favorites

i think ghost reveries has been their best album so far
it is so inspirational and i love it
best song is probably The Grand Conjuration

I could have sworn there was already a thread on these guys. Maybe I'm wrong? Good band, though.

Yay an Opeth thread. They're my favourite metal band besides Iron Maiden. The music is just so perfect. Akerfeldt is a god. Anyway, my fav album is probably Blackwater Park, but all of their stuff is good. And Ghost Reveries is a great album.

Damn straight they are awesome. Damnation = sex in ears.

Orchid and My Arms, Your Hearse are my favorites.

I still haven't gotten around to listening to the new one yet.

Anyone get that DVD?

good music, vocals turn me off though.

Opeth are great. One of the few bands that utilize the cookie monster style vocals that I can really stand at all, much less enjoy.
