The Opeth Survivors - Ghost Reveries - Round 1
« on: October 11, 2016, 05:51:38 PM »
The album that introduced Per Wiberg as the pianist and marked the end of Martin Lopez and Peter Lindgren. The change would surely be shown in the next album.

Now, I'm torn between Isolation Years or Hours of Wealth. I will abstain to see what others would pick for, then give it one more good listen, then vote out. So, what is your vote?

Atonement. It's not close
Only a prog fan would try to measure how much they enjoy a song by an equation. :lol

The Grand Conjuration, too long with too little going on.

Atonement on the other hand is an interesting and very good track.
Must've been Kwyji sending all the wrong songs.   ;D

Ah my favourite Opeth album. So hard to choose. I like the first part of The Grand Conjuration, the second part drags on.

Hours Of Wealth gets my first vote, I guess.
Zydar is my new hero.  I just laughed so hard I nearly shat.

Yes, Atonement.

Not just the short sings 'because they're short'. Atonement is actually not up to par.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

I love all the songs on this album, but TGC goes on unnecessarily long and has been overplayed live.

Beneath the Mire

Slightly overrated album in my opinion. Only because I've never grown to love some of the fan favorites on it.

The Grand Conjuration. As someone else said, too long for so little going on. Brilliant album though, Opeth's masterpiece.
