I've listened to the latest Opeth a couple of times. It's nice, solid. But something is missing. I can't put my finger on it. Atmoshpere? Memorable songs? Loved §4 btw.

I absolutely loved ALL their albums from Still Life to Pale Communion. They are all very well made (musically and production-wise) and you can easily be transported into their universe (or just create your own special oneWink) while listening to them, which is what I do prefer in music. Their releases became too cerebral for my taste after that. I think Opeth now kind of lack that wonderful feeling they had in the 2000's and i'm disappointed by their last release, which is still pretty good.

So to answer our question : Tongue

Fav: Watershed
Least : In cauda venenum

I've only heard 4 of their albums.  They are my introduction to growling vocals, which I first heard on Watershed (which I fished out of a bargain bin after seeing Opeth high rated on PA and was curious to hear them).  Took me years to get to like the vocals, but now I quite love the sound.

 Heard Watershed the most, (including recently on a road trip, and thought it was good enough to play twice through), so I guess I'd go with that album.  

 Least Fave?, yeah I dunno, have to listen more.
