i think the first 2 albums are good, they use a different guitar style and different kind of riffs as they are still finding their sound. My Arms Your Hearse is the daddy where true Opeth begins and they continued to develop from there.

MAYH is f**king heavy as hell, I think its the album before MAYH, Morningrise and Still Life the album after it is where Opeth really sprouted, of course reaching their peak at around BWP :)

Not at all. There are a ton of great prog/(insert metal genre here) bands like Negura Bunget, Drudkh, Coprofago, etc...

Got a list of any more? I love investigating obscure/inventive metal but I'd never heard of any of those .



I must warn you, some of these are a bit more niche than Opeth, but they are excellant.

Cynic - Focus (Death/Jazz/Prog)
Negura Bunget - N' Crugu Bradlui (Black/Prog)
Drudkh - Autumn Aurora (Atmospheric Black/Folk/Prog)
Atheist - Unquestionable Presence (Death/Jazz/Prog)

Feel free to check these out, but they are a bit tougher to get into than Opeth. I HIGHLY reccomend Cynic. Hope you find something you like.

Ahh, Green Carnation has an amazing album that is one song, 60 minutes long, make sure you check that one out. But Agalloch and Katatonia are kinda boring for me.



Ah yes, the famous Light of Day, Day of Darkness. If you can sit through the 60 minutes filled with Piano and Violin interludes, you're a true soldier!

Interesting stuff, to say the least.
