Opeth fucking rule, who's into 'em?
Blackwater Park was amazing, Mikael is the fucking man.

Opeth is my overall favourite band, full stop, no returns, and everytime I start a topic called Opeth these FUCKING PEASANTS never reply to it because they all listen to tripe! BAH! AND PAH!

What man?
Tripe? hmm....

Opeth are without a shadow of a doubt thé most innovative and great band that I have heard up until now. although I seriously doubt whether any other band will be able to dethrone them. personal fav is 'my arms your hearse', but love the other albums as well.

__________________

My Arms, Your Hearse is my fav. too. But, every album is really really close to becoming my fav., especially Blackwater.

i'll put it simply...

Fave all time band: Opeth
Fave all time album: Morningrise
Fave all time song: Black Rose Immortal.

i had always considered Opeth as exquisite musicians until i sat down to learn Black Rose Immortal ..... it sounds complicated but its really quite simple! This isn't a bad thing. They can capture a persons attention for 20 mins in one song and still leave them wanting more without being overly flashy. They can change moods and an atmosphere as good as any classical composer using much less tools. If any other band wrote songs as long as Black Rose Immortal i'd be bored shitless (yes even Edge Of Sanity's Crimson can bore me in parts). It is these facts that make Opeth musical geniouses.

My fave opeth song & cd would have to be 'morningrise' and 'the night and the silent water'

So true, and I must say, the songs with the soft vocals still kick alot of ass, like Harvest.

their best soft song is Credence IMO

wise words. but must wait, because i'm skinned right now. curses!

i think the songs that show a lot of interaction between vocals give opeth that extra dimension. and not only can michael sing good, he's also got a grunt that makes me jealous. wish i could hurl like him.

the song that got me into opeth was 'april ethereal'. blew me right away.

What can I say about Opeth?

Amazing tone, amazing song structuring, amazing vocals, and hell, everything else.

Still Life is my favorite (though I've only heard Morningrise, Still Life, and BWP) album, "Serenity Painted Death" is my favorite song of theirs, (maybe, I suck at picking favorite songs :P), as far as I'm concerned they're the best band still going (well, they're tied with Nevermore).

I agree totally!!!

1. still life (although I think "face of belinda is my fave song)
2. black waterpark
3. morningrise
4. my arms.........
5. orchid

thats my personal ratings!!!

I was luckey enogh to see them live last summer.
of course I was nervous about how they would manage with all the changes to
acoustic ect. but they sounded just like the recorded versions´...
well maybe a little more dark hehe
