Sorceress is the one that moves me the least.

Same but I still like it.

I really like Heritage and Pale Communion, but Sorceress was much less interesting.

I never heard the last album they released.

of the post Heritage records i find PC to be the weakest, and their newest one to be the strongest. Sorceress is fine

OK, let's get into this...

Storm Corrosion, I think I've only listened to it two or three times, but I'll give it another go tonight. I remember liking it, but not enough to revisit it, obviously.

With Opeth *These are purely my opinions, and not the opinions of DTF. Take them with a pinch of salt, or tell me to go fuck myself*...

  • Heritage is the weakest of the post-Watershed albums.
  • Watershed is actually the second best Opeth album so everything that has come after it, Heritage in particular, is sub par.
  • Pale Communion is leagues ahead of Heritage and restored my faith in the band.
  • Sorceress is better still, it has the one heavy riff (you know, the one they marketed the whole album on, teasing a return to heavy Opeth) as well as a song that could be on a freaking Final Fantasy game. Great album.
  • In Cauda Venenum is the best post-Watershed album and is this weirdly dark and ominous record, whilst also being really quirky, plus you can listen to the whole thing in Swedish.
  • My Arms, Your Hearse is actually the overrated album and Demon of the Fall isn't even that good.
  • Morningrise is better than MAYH.
  • Orchid is better than Morningrise.
  • Still Life is an incredible album, which we can all agree on.
  • Blackwater was a stepping stone to the greatness to come on Ghost Reveries and Watershed.
  • Deliverance is mid.
  • Damnation is the best post-Watershed album that isn't post-Watershed.
  • Ghost Reveries? More like GOAT Reveries.

  • Wrong.
  • Correct on Watershed being their second-best album, everything else is wrong.
  • Wroooooong.
  • Sorceress is better than Pale Communion, yes.
  • It's good, but no.
  • Nope.
  • *pukes*
  • Maybe. Low bar.
  • Overrated.
  • No.
  • No.
  • It's good, but no.
  • No, also overrated.

I'll bite:

  • Agreed
  • I like Watershed, but definitely not second-best for me
  • I like Pale Communion better than Heritage, yes
  • I'm fond of Sorceress. It's not an unbelievably great album or anything, bit it's good. More or less same level as PC, although quite different style-wise
  • Overall, I think I can agree with that
  • Kinda agree. I like but don't love MAYH
  • Many many many times yes to this. LOVE Morningrise
  • Not for me. Morningrise was a big step up, imo
  • Yep, probably my #1
  • Mmmh, not sure. It's not even about which one I like best. I just feel BwP was already very much a "point of arrival", if that makes any sense
  • A few years ago I'd have said the same thing. Turns out it's one of their albums that has grown on me the most
  • I only know I love Damnation :)
  • Certainly in the running for my favorite Opeth album too, with BWP and SL

I actually love Blackwater Park and it is only a hair behind Ghost Reveries and Watershed. I was being provocative for the sake of it :lol

Nick, you are mainly right. Buddy, you, like Luke Skywalker in the Last Jedi, are a huge disappointment.

Swap Ghost Reveries with MAYH and that'd be my top three as well, so hey, your opinion could be worse. :biggrin:

Good man!



Every fan of extreme metal on the forum needs to here this record, especially the Worm tracks. They have such a weird, spacey, atmospheric yet melodic feel that I can't really describe. I just love the guitar tone. Yea, just check it out.

Taking advantage of the hook:

This is common around here.
I have often seen album covers that are not easily identifiable because:

1) The band logos are illegible (very common in extreme metal bands).

2) The cover art does not show the name of the band and/or album (example: Harmony Codex by SW*).

If the intention is to share what you are listening to as a form of suggestion to others, it would be interesting to practice writing the names of artists/albums when this is not clear from the cover alone.

* I know that most people here know how to recognize that it is a SW album, it is just one example!
