Illustrating World of Opeth?
Hi everyone. I would like to try to illustrate the world of Opeth. I would need a comprehensive information on what all Opeth's albums are about.
Or if you have links to other posts where thease have already been discussed, I would love to read them. Also, if you have other ideas, I would like to hear them. Thanks.

Opeth shitpost
Random shitpeth found in the wild (don't know if this was posted on this sub already)

Why is Funeral Portrait so under appreciated? It's just as good as all the other tracks on BWP yet it's rarely discussed or shown love.
I genuinely don't get it.
It's easily the most underrated track on this album.

The cover looks familiar, the title sounds familiar, yet something's off...

It arrived
Upon seeing the rough seas variant on discogs, I knew I wanted it in my collection. Album slaps/10

You fell in the mosh pit during Deliverance and hit your head. When you come to, it’s at an Opeth concert in 2011, the sun is about to set. Turns out it’s not 2024—it was all just a dream.

Heritage is honestly top 3 for me rn

Convince me that Sorceress is great
no i mean literally tell me what in particular makes you like it. i don't really have much negative things to say about Sorceress, it just doesn't click for me, it would be helpful for me to read why people like it because I really want to like it more.

Ok, now that some time has passed...
Interested to hear, now that TLWAT has been properly digested by most folks, where the record sits for you in Opeth's overall discography?
When it first dropped, people were freaking out, maybe the newness got them or maybe they did like it that well, but I'm curious how it's gestated for people overall versus the albums?
I'm a fan of the older stuff myself moreso than the newer stuff. I honestly like it the most of any of the newer records and it grew on me more than I thought it would. Not as good as GR, BWP etc, but very good overall.

No he doesn’t, go back through the original thread, some comments were playfully disagreeing with him at best
I feel like we don’t need this hyperbolic over sensitive shit

It finally arrived!
Finally arrived, after being messed around by Amazon who delayed the order indefinitely on release day. I had to find another supplier and ended up getting the much more eye pleasing Rough Seas version.

Headphones…
How are you enjoying your Opeth pleasure?? Speakers, headphones, RADIO?!? What is your favourite way to experience the perfection of the most perfect band ever. Also write which brand or version of the Hardware!

This fella deserves an apology
This guy made a post about why he doesn't personally dig the title track of Blackwater Park, and many of you dragged him unnecessarily through the mud...
For the record, there's this thing called personal preferences, and believe or not, even if they're a few compared to the amount of fans of BWP, there's still people who doesn't dig EVERYTHING from said album, it's a masterpiece, I know, y'all know it, but control yourselves if you see someone who doesn't fuck with it entirely.
You guys are the BEST community I've ever been into, but try not to let the hive mind mentality that normally is waayy to common on Reddit to affect you.

Favorite Song
Can only input 6 options. Comment if 1 or 3 are your faves. Left them out since they were the early releases. I’m voting for 2.
My rewind moments on the album are:
2’s intro
Reclaim your souls
Effectively, these heirlooms are, in essence, worthless
Full ranking as of now: 2>1>5>6>7>4>3>Story

Moonlapse vertigo is such an underrated track

Which album sounds most like Ghost Reveries: Orchid or Pale Communion
They say both Orchid and Ghost Reveries are "Oldpeth", and Pale Communion is "Newpeth", but I see much more in common between the last two: The progressive rock influences, the melodic complexity and psychedelic atmosphere. Symphonic arrangements, some jazz influences and a similar clean singing.
Orchid is rawer, more straightforward in its approach, with a heavier focus on traditional doom and death metal, with a much stripped-down sound compared to the polished later albums. Its riffing style has nothing to do with Ghost Reveries and vocals are much more reserved.
