Still Life is Opeth's best. But I voted for Opeth's 3rd, since I'd love the Official Forum to leave on a dark appreciative MAYH note :kickass: The gate was closed that day but I was bound to carry on...

PEAC EOUT!

I think it's experimentation time. The critics can moderate this forum for one week, and Samsara can troll the crap out of as many threads possible, using the techniques he has had to battle over the years. :kickass: Others are free to join in on the fun. Then we will see how 'easy' it truly...

This. Well said.

I've got a habit of clicking the address bar, typing 'u', then down, then enter, daily. Wow that's going to take a hit. Samsara, you can't sit at the PC 24/7 and monitor every little piece that is written on the forums. Kudos on an excellent job. Mike, cheers. Hopefully we will see some...

The different variations of 'waz' I saw in user names. And OPTH, and Photoshopeth haha

I went to the start of this thread and started reading. I swear it seems like 75 per cent of posts are taking the piss. I reckon if you accumulate every opinion in this thread you'll have Opeth's discography.

Mango juice is da bomb. I've just never had the image in my head of someone rocking out with a delicious fruit-based beverage in their hand.

:lol: 'Demon of Fall' would imply that the demon emerges annually at the time of Autumn. Since MAYH takes place over the period of one year, the song describes the demon that emerges in the fall of that particular year, hence 'the fall' of year ####. Plus, the minor pun of 'fall' as demise...

I've been listening to The White quite a lot lately, particularly being fond of Isle of Summer and Birch Black, but I've never felt a connection. I might have another listen. Edit: Was thinking of Birch White. Birch Black has a similar style to tAiT, but is very different. I can definitely...

I enjoyed.

IIRC, a thread in the past estimated around 800-900 thousand albums sold.

In regards to BTPISIO, I think it was the whole Deliverance recording fiasco that tainted it. I rate it above Masters' Apprentices, personally. And :lol:

Demon of the Fall.

'Ripped from my embraaaaaace'

:lol: I once had a dream that Opeth were to play at a quiet place (location unknown), but just before they came out Mike told us they had argued and weren't playing the gig. So then Mike sat by a campfire with an acoustic doing a solo set, but it was absolutely terrible. Scary stuff.

I suggest you get a capo and try Elliott Smith's Angeles. If it isn't what you're yearning, you can enjoy yearning for something different :D So glad to meet you, Angeles... Simon and Garfunkel are also inspiring. Sounds of Silence, Bleeker Street, April Come She Will, Kathy's Song and...

I give credit to fans who discovered Opeth during Orchid/Morningrise, because those albums never seem to get enough love :wave:

Been listening to Elliott's XO a lot lately. Absolutely mindblowing musician he was :(.

hmm, right. Haven't listened to too much Dimmu, but I enjoy watching Mourning Palace from Ozzfest from time to time.
