I know we're in the middle of a Deliverance discussion, but I wanted to say the wife and I listened to most of My Arms, Your Hearse last night.  What an awesome album!  I hadn't listened to much of it before, maybe a song here or there, mainly in the background while doing something else.
Winger would be better!

Just because a song is at the bottom of a list does not mean anyone "hates" a song, which is a strong word to use anyway. But.... something has to be on the bottom of the list, right?

After running the Opeth survivor for the last two years and posting regularly in whatever was/is the current Opeth thread in General Music for about as long as I can remember being a part of this community (6 years), I can say, quite confidently, that I don't think we've ever had a point in DTF's history where more than a small handful of folks would openly say anything better than neutral comments about it. That basically puts it on par with the lower half of Orchid's tracklist as far as opinions around here go.

I wish it wasn't that way though since I love the intro and that acoustic verse riff with the eerie guitar volume-swelled notes (or is it Steven Wilson on keyboard?) is such an awesomely unique moment in their discography.

This, and the finale with the faster tempo is fantastic.

By the Pain I See in Others is one of my favorite Opeth songs.  That intro is sooo killer.

This was tough, because Deliverance isn't my favorite of the albums after MAYH.  I think I got it pretty much down, though.

Not at all. She just posted after I made that post.

I dunno - the bacon thing COULD be a club killer.  Life, liberty, and the pursuit of pork fat and kickass jams! :2metal:
