Just a quick boring question. I got 'My Arms, Your Hearse' recently and it's great. So.....what next?? Any recommendations? I hear 'Deliverence' is good.

Get Cynic's album Focus and forget you ever heard of Opeth.

Karl Hungus

No, Deliverance is thier worst album by far... Horrible introduction to the band.

Blackwater Park.

nesthead

"these are the Opeth albums you should get in order to get into them"

I'm sure you did... It's not really that bad an album at all, but it's still the poorest effert from Opeth I've heard.

i thought it was allright, not the best but it was good, ill probably try some of their other stuff, if thats the worst then...

Blackwater Park and Damnation

Blackwater Park is by far the best. The Leper Affinity is such a brilliant intro. It just gives you an overall flavour of the guys

Töpher

Picked a great album to start off with! As said before, follow it up with Blackwater Park, Still Life, and Damnation.

John

Just get them all in one go, hang the expense and thank me later.

Don't listen to him! he kept puking in a bottle and got it confiscasted...

Matthewthebig

That is neither here nor there. it is still a brilliant album. who is this

It wasn't me!

It's damn good alright.

Opeth are the best progressive metal/death metal band around guys. Blackwater park is defenitely their best effort but damnation is a close second. i agree that my arms your hearse is also brilliant especially demon of the fall and The Amen Corner. if you really want to get a taste of what Opeth are all about, buy the DVD Lamentations. i went to that gig and it is by far the best live gig ive ever seen bar none. the documentary is also awesome. Also, check out porcupine tree for opeth style solos.

Sonic Titan

I reckon you should get all their albums. Great band and sound guys.
And yes Starbreaker, Porcupine Tree are amazing, really talented with great tunes.

Ren0

My friend gave me Black Water Park and its awesome.

What album is Demon Of The Fall on?


Check out Orchidia by Porcupine Tree.

Hi Starbreaker i just joined this today only getting used to it I wanted to say I disagree with you Opeth have gone down hill in my book I do however agree there are great metal doom band but I find some there albums weren't great but Still Life, Morning Rise, Blackwater Park, Watershed, Orchid after that in my own opinon that was it

Notice he said "hated" as in past tense. And also then says he listened to Opeth years later... Implying he likes metal now.

Thank you Dr. Poca

No 1 Metal Fan it's generally frowned upon to drag up threads that are over a year old, unless its a pretty specific topic, most of the time they will just be locked by a moderator. You are better off just starting a new thread yourself.

And for the record My Arms was my first and favourite Opeth album which I bought in 2007
