Great episode and great panelists! It really added some entertainment to get those live quick snippets of the guitar parts that Travis did so I can be sure I remember which song it is (sometimes the song name alone is tough to recall but hearing the riff helps). I love Opeth! Here's my top 20 favourite songs: • 1: Ghosts of Perdition (from Ghost Reveries) • 2: The Lotus Eater (from Watershed) • 3: Deliverance (from Deliverance) • 4: Blackwater Park (from Blackwater Park) • 5: The Moor (from Still Life) • 6: The Grand Conjuration (from Ghost Reveries) • 7: Universal Truth (from In Cauda Venenum) • 8: Slither (from Heritage) • 9: Windowpane (from Damnation) • 10: Demon of the Fall (from My Arms, Your Hearse) • 11: Sorceress (from Sorceress) • 12: Moon Above, Sun Below (from Pale Communion) • 13: Heir Apparent (from Watershed) • 14: Wreath (from Deliverance) • 15: The Leper Affinity (from Blackwater Park) • 16: Godhead’s Lament (from Still Life) • 17: The Garroter (from In Cauda Venenum) • 18: Reverie/Harlequin Forest (from Ghost Reveries) • 19: Coil (from Watershed) • 20: Bleak (from Blackwater Park)
Nice lists guys👏 I listen to an unhealthy amount of Opeth...they're by far my most obsessed band ever🙌🖤🧝 This list changes depending on the monthly mood, but my current top 10 favs: 10. Demon of the Fall - Just a banger and love the transition at 4:25, such a great melody 9. The Moor - Truly epic start to one of the greatest albums of all time 8. A Fair Judgement - One of their best solos and an absolute soul crushing ending 7. Dirge for November - Love the sadness of this, so dark and full of despair😩 6. Face of Melinda - When the song shifts at 4:25 good lord one of the greatest things ever 5. Harlequin Forest - Better outro than Deliverance 4. Serenity Painted Death - The RIFFS! 3. When - The live version from Roundhouse👌When can I take you from this plaaaaaace 🎵 2. Godhead's Lament - This song has everything! 1. Blackwater Park - Can listen to this song daily and never get tired of it, my favorite song of all time💀
Great episode and lots of good songs mentioned. One of my top 10 that wasn’t mentioned is “River” from Pale Communion. I realize it’s a bit of an outlier in Opeth’s catalog, but those vocal harmonies are just so good!
A lot to digest there Scot , and I'll be doing some digging and digesting huge amounts of Opeth. From what I know and have already heard I'm really appreciating their material , awesome panel and chat... another great stream man !! 😍🎵🎵🤘
I love Opeth they are in my top 3 favorite artists of all time so picking 10 songs is extremely hard because they have never released a bad song. 1. Deliverance 2. The Baying of the Hounds 3. The Lotus Eater 4. Blackwater Black 5. In My Time of Need 6. The Devil’s Orchard 7. The Moor 8. Eternal Rains Will Come 9. Will o the Wisp 10. April Ethereal Honorable Mentions: To Bid You Farewell, Windowpane, The Grand Conjugation, Dignity, Forest of October, Bleak and Coil
1. Hessian Peel 2. Baying of the Hounds 3. Ghost of Perdition 4. Closure 5. The Night and the Silent Water (Roundhouse) 6. Bleak 7. Harvest 8. The Drapery Falls 9. Godhead's Lament 10. By The Pain I See In Others
That was a great one. Good to get in the mood for Opeth Live which for me next is 7 August. I struggled ranking their albums (bottom Heritage and Pale Communion top three 3. In Cauda Venenum 2. Blackwater Park and 1. Still Life) I got into Opeth with Still Life so some interference there. I don't even dare ranking songs as that is way to hard I guess and very much depending on moods with such a varied discography.
1 Harlequin Forest 2 Blackwater Park 3 Under a Weeping Moon 4 The Grand Conjuration 5 Face of Melinda 6 Deliverance 7 The Apostle in Triumph 8 When 9 Heir Apparent 10 Hope Leaves
I'm surprised no one mentioned Moonlapse Vertigo off of Still Life. 1. Deliverance 2. Blackwater Park 3. Leper Affinity 4. Bleak 5. Moonlapse Vertigo 6. The Moor 7. Devil's Orchard 8. Ghost of Perdition 9. Wreath 10. Folklore
Missed it live :( but my choices in no order would be: The Moor Ghost of Perdition Baying of the Hounds Leper Affinity Heir Apparent Moon Above, Sun Below Next of Kin Windowpane Twilight is my Robe Masters Apprentices I'll now watch to be completely disagreed with lol
Great band, great songs, but I really do not like the Heritage album. There are a few okay songs, but I find it to be a bit dull ??? Iain is Gentle Giant with spectacles...
