Mine: 1. Watershed 2. Still Life 3. My Arms, Your Hearse 4. Blackwater Park 5. In Cauda Venenum 6. Heritage 7. Ghost Reveries 8. The Last Will & Testament 9. Pale Communion 10. Damnation 11. Orchid 12. Deliverance 13. Morningrise 14. Sorceress
@ I like the music, but the production is sooooo dry and lifeless compared to say Watershed. I might actually move it down and out Pale Communion a little higher (sacrilege I know)
Yes finally! My ranking would look like this: 1. Still Life 2. Blackwater Park 3. Watershed 4. Ghost Reveries 5. My Arms your Hearse 6. Damnation 7. Deliverance 8. Pale Communion 9. The last Will and Testament 10. In Clauda Venenum 11. Orchid 12. Sorceress 13. Morningrise 14. Heritage
Good shit, man! Althought I don’t agree with some of your takes on some of these albums i totally get where you come from and you make pretty valid points, at the end, they’re just our opinions. I really enjoy when you talk about specific songs, sections and riffs, it’s something i don’t see that often from other youtubers, or at the same level of scrutiny like you, and i gotta say man, a lot of the songs and sections you talked about I absolutely love as well and it’s the first time i get that level of feeling or understanding or whatever you wanna call it from a ranking video. With that in mind, i really recommend you to check out morningrise again, i mean, i get it, i also was bored to death with that album, but it grows on you man. I don’t care about songs like nectar and black rose, but Advent, holy fffuck, advent is one of my favorites songs in their whole catalog, you could straight up cut like two minutes from the middle part of the track, but the rest of the song is just almost perfection, specially like the 5 last minutes of the track, one of the most well crafted outros of a song that opeth has ever done, of course, in my opinion. And the way it flows with the intro of the night and the silent water, goosebumps every time. I’ve been listening to opeth for 4 years, and almost every album has at least a couple of tracks that initially i didn’t care for, but, ended up growing on me, to the point that some of them are now my favourites, a very curious thing that happens only with very few bands imo. Anyway, this comment can only be so long haha, if u made it this far i really wanted to show my appreciation for your content, and why not, leave my own ranking as well, keep it up man! 1.- Blackwater park 2.- Deliverance 3.- Ghost reveries 4.- Still life 5.- Watershed 6.- Damnation 7.- Morningrise 8.- Sorceress 9.- In cauda venenum 10.- Pale communion 11.- My arms your hearse 12.- TLWAT (i really don’t know where to put it since it’s still so fresh, need more time, for now, goes here i guess) 13.- Heritage 14.- Orchid Ps. Ranking this discography is very hard, this has changed a lot through time Ps2. Sorry for my bad english, not my first language haha. Greetings from Mexico
