ORCHID

Orchid is an album that has its flaws, but honestly, it's a great debut, there's a unique and otherworldly atmosphere that surrounds this album every time i listen to it, be it the raw mixing, the abstract black metal lyrics, the lack of structure of the songs and the constant change of rhythm, this is an album that has a very peculiar and unique sound, the experimentation that the album has is something that i admire and really like, one thing that i find very interesting about Orchid, is that one of the characteristics of Opeth which are the acoustic parts, while in other albums they are used to convey melancholy and calm, in Orchid i feel that it sounds more sinister and disturbing, which is really cool. It's not a perfect album, what makes Opeth Opeth is here, but it's quite initial, it has a lack of cohesive direction, however, Opeth in this debut right away proved themselves to be a different band and their potential, it's worth the effort. especially for songs like ''In The Mist She Was Standing'', ''Forest of October'' and ''The Twilight Is My Robe'', really great album.
