Opeth: Non-Heritage discussion thread ***NO SPOILERS PLEASE***

[Liberation]

Drapery isn't an adjective.

That's what I thought. It seems my beautiful poetic concept earlier doesn't work.

NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

offtopic: what's that in your avatar? ^

My what in my avatar? The avatar itself is the cover of a demo done by Haken (known for their awesome Aquarius) with some doodle applied (negative, mainly).

Also, Heritage got completely leaked? (not asking for links, just wondering).

Yeah, I know Haken. Sort of know the guys as well and Aquarius is awesome. I was just wondering what the avatar was, but thanks.

You are all so, so wrong.

You are all so, so wrong.

[DarkEternalNight]

Blackwater Park is the best, although Watershed is my favorite.

[Zantera]

Blackwater Park has some of the band's best songs, but GR just smacks it down, and continues to kick it when it's on the ground.

WHITE FACE
HAGGARD GRIN
THIS SERENITY PAINTED DEATH
WITH A HALO OF BITTER DISEASE
BLACK PARAGON IN LINGERING BREATH

Serenity Painted Death

[The King in Crimson]

All of Still Life

FIFM

[Liberation]

They wear white for me seemingly jaded and lost
I forge myself into your dreams and here I am your life...

Cloak captures sighs of relief
This primal touch brought me back
And the last thing I did see is still here
Beckoning right behind me...

[Cynicalamity]

I was foul and tainted, devoid of faith
Wearing my death mask at birth
The hands of God, decrepit and thin
Cold caress and then nothing

[Liberation]

I was taken away from my plight
Treason bestowed to the crowd
Branded a Jonah with fevered blood
Ungodly freak - DEFILER!

[Cynicalamity]

My breath in the sepulchral mound.
You know that your night is my day.
The final spark that blew life into me,
the DEMON OF THE FALL.

[Ravenheart]

SHAKE YA ASS
BUT WATCH YA SELF
SHAKE YA ASS
SHOW ME WHAT YOU WORKIN WITH

[Riceball]

WHITE FACE
HAGGARD GRIN
THIS SERENITY PAINTED DEATH
WITH A HALO OF BITTER DISEASE
BLACK PARAGON IN LINGERING BREATH

These are really awesome lyrics.

one thing i've noticed about Opeth's albums, in particular GR/BWP, they have been mastered perfectly and are so clear/the clarity is incredible. it just makes them a joy to listen too 

[Gadough]

Blackwater Park has some of the band's best songs, but GR just smacks it down, and continues to kick it when it's on the ground. 

This is a fact.

[Zantera]

After listening to Deliverance for the first time in a long time, I must say that it is hands down Opeth's best song.
They have many songs that aren't far behind, I'm not suggesting that Deliverance is THAT superior, but overall it's just so damn mindblowing.
Don't even get me started on the outro. 

It also has the epic "Choking on dicks!"-line, which makes it even better!

  Never made the connection. Timestamp?

[Zantera]

Well, it's the first line Mikael sings..
It might be "Floating on mist", but it sure sounds more like "Choking on dicks". 

[Zydar]

I guess it's the "Floating on mist" line?

Edit: Ninja'd.

[Zantera]

Yes, around 0.45 or so. 

[Liberation]

My favourite remains THE BEST MADE TACOS OF THE EARTH, DIABOLICAL BEANS ROAMING THE FORESTS

[Zantera]

I dunno.. they have some awesome ones.
One of my favorites is the "Deadly badgers laid my wreath" in The Drapery Falls.

[DeepBlueMajesty]

Well, it's the first line Mikael sings..
It might be "Floating on mist", but it sure sounds more like "Choking on dicks". 

Great. I will never hear the song the same way again. 

I agree with the fact it's their best song though.

I agree on the awesomeness. Best song? No way!!
