Ghost Reveries. I have it on Ruckus for another half hour, so I figured I might as well listen to it. I still think a lot of metal is silly (Leviathan doesn't even have growls but it still makes me laugh, I don't know why), but the Opeth growls are a lot less silly now.

Ghost Reveries is one of my favorites. Pretty much, if you want to keep a good impression of Opeth, absolutely avoid their first few albums. Everything before Still Life I avoid like the plague.

So do I.

Ulver are the only straight heavy metal I really like, but this is pretty good, I'll download Blackwater Park eventually on eMusic. Argh, there was something I wanted to remember, but now it's gone. It was about some band, I guess I'll remember it eventually.

Speaking of Ulver. Where's the best place to start with them?

Blackwater Park is clearly the best Opeth.
Also, I just want to comment again on how mindblowing that live performance of Living in the Heart of the Beast was. I wasn't expecting much, given my experiences with the studio version, but it just slaughtered babies all over the place.
|
Was that from the 1974-5 disc? It was great, sound quality was a little dodgy though.
|
Yeah. The performance more than made up for it, though. What are the best discs from the box (besides studio albums, of course)?

Bergtatt. Then Nattens Madrigal. All their electronic stuff is mediocre or worse.

On the non-remaster it is. On the remaster, it's not.

It's not my fault.  I didn 't change that one, so that's what it came up as. I should have checked.

I wouldn't mind hearing it, but I don't want to play it with Leg End. Nine Citizens is a perfect ending.

Boooooooo! Natten's Madrigal is a superb black metal album, Blood Inside is electronic multi-genre post-rock, and Shadows of the Sun is more ambient. You'd probably like Blood Inside the most, unless you want to listen to metal.
