Number 13 says it all.
15)Opeth-Blackwater Park (2001)
Sometimes an album needs to grow on you. This one took me a month. Listening to this every day,memorizing every damn thing. It was worth it. The Leaper Affinity is awesome,Bleak is perfect,Harvest is good,The Drapery Falls is perfect and so on… Every song kicks ass. But The Drapery Falls was the first song that i really liked. I love the clean vocals on the album. Especially on this track. Making Akerfeldt one of my favorite clean vocalists ever. Top 5 guaranteed. Anyways,the instrumental is also beyond amazing. The album is good at blowing me away and being timeless. I never get tired of it. Love it.
Favorite Opeth Song:The Drapery Falls
14)The Mars Volta-Amputechture (2006)
I love this album to death. It's heavy prog with a huge emphasis on heavy. The album has some of those moments where it makes my mind explode. Especially songs like Tetragrammaton and Day Of The Baphomets. I also love the opener,Vicarious Atonement. Amazing intro that fades into Tetragrammaton perfectly. Other songs like Meccamputechture and Viscera Eyes are also marvelous. But my favorite is Day Of The Baphomets. Like The Drappery Falls for Opeth,this was the album that got me into The Mars Volta. Also,love the cover.

Eat it. Anyways,Focus changed their sound in this lp to a more jazz fusion driven prog rock band. This was prob my favorite release of 2012 and nobody gave two shits about it.This album needs to be heard. I'm not gonna say anything else. Just go and listen. Excuses for bad write ups
Favorite song: X Roads
