time for an opeth reaction ghost of perdition alex hefner #opeth #ghostofperdition #reaction
You’re gonna get A LOT of opinions on the “best Opeth song,” and everyone is right.
i like Bloodbath more LOL
Yes u are right aswell Bryan 😊
@@HellBrYnger I like Opeth more, especially older Opeth stuff, but Bloodbath is definitely 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The leper affinity
Every opeth song is their best
This is their best song.
Having that said they have about other 50 best songs.
Okay this isn’t their best song. It’s one of their best songs. Now one of their top 5 songs would be along the lines of “the moor, blackwater park, heir apparent, the night and the silent water, black rose immortal, to bid you farewell, demon of the fall, face of Melinda, serenity painted death, harvest, the leper affinity, bleak, masters apprentices, harlequin forest, the grand conjuration,
@@broken_majingxd it's subjective but yes, one of their best. Harlequin Forest was my first for a while until I discovered Still Life, then The Moor took that spot.
Grand conjuration is great too :D
Opeth are fantastic but for me their two best heavy songs are Heir Apparent and Blackwater Park.
@@broken_majingxd it's literally what the original commenter said.
"having an aucostic guitar in metal is just something you don't do"
Opeth: hold our beers for the next 25 years
Fr fr
ua-cam.com/video/EbA0GGb0YWc/v-deo.html most of their heavy songs have an insane Witcher feel to them when acoustic
the acoustic parts are like the ghost chasing her through a rye field or something
Ghost Reveries is a goddamn fucking masterpiece. One of the greatest albums ever made.
And I second that
Blackwater Park gets more press - and I understand why, given that Bleak and the title track are two of the greatest, most perfect metal songs ever written - but Ghost Reveries, from start to finish, is just as good IMO. I don't think there's another album out there that has a better opening track listing than Ghost/Baying/Mire. Those three songs are each masterpieces, and they're arguably not even the best songs on the album.
"Still Life" was the album through which I discovered Opeth, shortly after its release. And while I enjoy most of their prior and subsequent stuff (up to a point), it still remains my favourite Opeth album.
Blackwater to Ghost Reveries are just a culmination of masterpieces. They all are among my top metal albums
@@andrewhart9310 the only other album they have that compares for me is Still Life. Masterpiece from start to finish
"deliverance" , "bleak" , "reverie/harlequin forest" , "isolation years" ,"windowpane" , "demon of the fall" , "serenity painted death" ,"heir apparent" ....for a start !!!!
In Mist She Was Standing
@@CaptainAlbatross and „Under the Weeping Moon” :)
Apostle in Triumph
blackwater park
The drapery falls =)
Opeth... One of the finest rabbit holes I've ever been in.
Blackwater Park or Harlequin Forest would be my suggestions for a next listen.
I’ve never dig out of that rabbit hotel and I’m quite fine with that.
In my opinion, the whole Watershed album DESERVE a fully reaction 🤘🏼
Still life too
I 100% agree
Absolute masterpiece of an album
YES!
Or atleast coil and heir apparent in same reaction.
15 year old me, in 2005, just discovering metal and sitting down with this album for the first time was a life changing experience I tell you. Been the biggest fan ever since and made me the music nerd I consider myself now.
Do Reverie/Harlequin Forest or Bleak next! Ride the wave man!
wait, he didnt do any Opeth till now? omg what a waste...
@@LittleRifflemanX he did Porcellain Heart
Man... If it wasn't because metal have so many great genres and artists, I would be very tempted to say: *_"I'm sorry that Opeth ruined music for you in such a young age"_* :>
Same here dude! 2005, I was 15, this album LIVED in my CD player for weeks. Completely changed how I felt about music. Never encountered so much metal & melody combined.
Shiiiiit I didn't actually get into opeth till I was 28 or so!!!
such a shame too....lol
up until that point I'd say my favorite bands were A7x, all that remains, trivium, as I lay dying, lamb of god, Slipknot, etc.
however once I completely dove into their discography they easily jumped into my top 5 fav bands if not top 3
YES FINALLY. You need to hear so much more of these guys. Like you said so underrated. Love this brother, sending love from Philly❤️❤️❤️
underrated?? those who know, know
@@randomname3109 Exactly, not underrated in the eyes of their fan base, but to the casual listener or ‘reactor’👏🏻❤️
please, learn the meaning of the word "underrated". both of you.
The first album I ever heard from them I bought at Best Buy called Blackwater Park which was brand new at the time. I didn’t like it at first but it grew on me in a strange way and I couldn’t stop listening to it.
I passed my whole adolescence with the sacred trinity: Opeth/Tool/Agalloch. Man, what a wonderful years
kind sir, Any recommended songs for Agalloch ?
@@prontera09
Falling snow, Not Unlike The Waves, and In The Shadow Of Our Pale Companion.
To me was Alcest instead of Agalloch but I heard them and they're awesome
Opeth is my favorite band for almost 20 years 😍
These are some bangers by Opeth:
1- The Moor
2- Godhead’s Lament
3- The Baying of the Hounds
4- Master’s apprentices
5- Blackwater Park
6- Hessian Peel
Demon of the Fall too
Don’t forget Coil/Heir Apparent
And Deliverance
night and the silent water
black rose immortal
serenity painted death
bleak
dirge for november
Akerfeldt is the most talented frontman that can fuse Raw, rough, death metal with the most Angelic, and technical music ever and make it work on all sides. Sadden's me that he doesn't do Harsh vocals that much anymore though, this was the opeth i fux with...
He still does them live. Totally worth seeing.
@@israelthacker8568 Gonna see them in November in Lisbon with my mom. 25th anniversary concert :p
you don't headbang to Opeth, you close your eyes and sway back and forth. Each Opeth song is 5 songs in one.
You headbang in pi^3/0 time signature
A Meshuggah concert crowd looks like a bunch of bobble head dolls ;)
I’m a HUGE Opeth fan. THANK YOU ALEX. Took ya long enough. What I really love about them is you can put on a song and close your eyes and just it takes you to another place. It’s sooooo good!!!!
such a good observation. have you ever been under the influence listening to opeth?
@@AlexHefner HELL YES!...if not then I'd just as soon wait to listen.
I’m a grownup with a mortgage and dog and a family and a career and I routinely use mushrooms and listen to In Cauda Venenum.
@@AlexHefner Opeth and weed is like peanut butter and jelly.
@@AlexHefner man that must be a hell of a trip
My personal favorite Opeth songs to check that people never seem to get asked react to (but should):
1 - When
2 - The Lotus Eater
3 - Dirge for November
4 - Wreath
Might i add In Mist She Was Standing and Advent?
When is an outstanding track
Why do the Opeth fans always forgot about the Morningrise album!!!
Glad Dirge is getting that love 🤘🏻
@@christopherjohn84 Because a lot of people only enjoy Black Rose Immortal and To Bid You Farewell
after careful consideration, and limiting my impulses to suggest every opeth song, here is an "essentials" list:
- blackwater park
- the grand conjuration
- sorceress
- deliverance
- to rid the disease
- the entire still life album
- the entire watershed album
think you should sneak harlequin forest in there as well, 6 songs and two full albums won't hurt
Love that. If you've got to curate songs from albums (instead of going straight through, I'd go:
Blackwater Park and Bleak
Grand Conjuration and Harlequin Forest
When
The Moor and Godhead's Lament
Porcelain Heart and the Lotus Eater
Deliverance
But really, it's almost easier to just say: "Listen to Damnation, Deliverance, Watershed, Still Life, Ghost Reveries, and Blackwater Park front to back, over and over, and throw away everything else you've ever heard." And that's before you get to their newer, proggier sound.
your essentials include two full albums dude xD
You forgot The Moor bro
@@portalgh0st730 The Moor is part of Still Life
I'm 61 years old and this is my #1 favorite song. Previous to that, it was Kashmir by Led Zeppelin which held my top spot from 1974 to this release. I love thrash metal, yet epic songs like Kashmir and Ghost of Perdition beat them. O[eth to me isn't about steady beats. It's about a flow which could go anywhere in each song they do. Some songs like The Funeral Portrait are more steady. You should check out the studio version of Deliverance which was when Martin Lopez was the drummer, and is on the top of my list of great songs.
Next open song .
Harvest
The Drapery falls
Face of Melinda
Bleak
Burden
Blackrose immortal
To bid you farewell
Demon of the fall
Benighted
Isolation years
Hessian peel
There's many of them but i don't know if i can fit them all 😂
i've never heard a band that utilizes acoustic guitar as well as opeth, especially to layer their heavier songs. moonlapse vertigo is one of my favorite examples.
Might I suggest 'Invitation' by Black Crown Initiate. If you like Opeth, you'll probably like BCI.
Moonlapse is super underrated.
Opeth is one reason that make me proud to be Swedish 😍 Mikaels voice is magic!!!
4 words. Demon of the fall.
Alex dude, you need to react to the entire Blackwater Park album. Widely considered one of the greatest metal albums ever recorded. The 20th Anniversary of the release just passed so it would be prime time to do it!
seconded
That’s the first one I ever bought and that was when it had just come out too. Been a long time Opeth fan now.
Mikael's scream is so amazing! I've never heard anyone else's scream that gives me the same feeling as his
For me only two other vocalist can compete Johan from Amon Amarth and Dez from Devildriver
Peter tagertan (sp) from Hypocrisy. Michael’s Ankerflet and him traded off as singers with the project band Bloodbath. They are my 2 favorite growing vocals .
Tomi Joutsen of Amorphis
So true. Such a shame he decided not to do it anymore.
@@mokuscsik i don't think its put of the question, he still does it on tours first of all, 2nd he said in an interview that lately he just isnt feeling the harsh vocals in the music. Its very possible we could still see new music heavy as ever.
Alex reacting to Opeth the same time their drummer left the band !!
Welcome to Prog Metal. Some of my favorite Prog bands: Dream Theater, Riverside, Symphony X, Porcupine Tree, Fates Warning, Haken, Katatonia. Theses bands will take you on a journey you wont come back from. Your right, Opeth's entire catalog is fantastic, Reverie/Harleguin Forest is one of my favorite Opeth songs. Dive into Dream Theater bro, you wont regret it.
Oh ya to Dream Theater!
Seeing these guys Friday can’t wait
I'm so jealous,lol, Have a great time where are you located,if you don't mind me asking?
They are superb live. One of the best audio experiences I've ever heard at a concert. At the venue I saw them live at years ago the audio quality ended up being better than the studio versions.
Opeth, Mastodon, and Zeal & Ardor.... talk about a fun combo. I'll be seeing this show in like two weeks
@@SpaghettiWithMeatSauce - The one I saw was them and Katatonia.
I've seen them 10 times, but it's been several years since the last time.
You’re now listening too the best to ever do it growl/guttural/scream wise! Mikael Akerfeldt is a god!!!
Yeah this is one of them great prog death metal songs definitely. One of those bands that created masterpieces like this. Opeth a perfect example of progressive death metal.
Yes! One of my favorite bands of all time. Really hope to hear a reaction to Bleak, The Leper Affinity, Windowpane and/or Wreath. Thanks for all the bangers dude!
An unbelievable track, isn't it?
One of the greatest bands out there. ❤️
Guitars, drums, vocals, bass, keyboards - listen to this song 5 times in a row and keep your attention on a different instrument each time and you'll get 5 magical journeys. This song is so perfectly orchestrated. Also it's a little tricky to headbang on this one first time because it goes through 6/8, 4/4, 12/8, 3/3 and you never know which one you're getting next. It's amazing.
One of the best suggestions for an Open song. So much slight nuances you miss unless you focus on specific instruments. Kudos
The album "Deliverance" has 6 of their best songs and pairs beautifully with "Damnation", an album with 8 of their best songs.
I love that you instantly know how to make Opeth faces through the changes. You're a Metalhead, dude.
I think that now you sould listen to either "windowpane", "isolation years" or "the moor" those songs will get you in the band
Breaking news from Opeth: Axe is out of the band.
Fucking shit
Oh no...
What?? Geezus that fuckin’ blows. Axe is crazy good.
Whatttttt :((((
Man...
Now you need to hear Blackwater Park, it's their best song
I second this! Easily the best
I didn't know they had a best song. There are too many. It really depends upon the mood and frame of mind at the time.
Funeral Portrait 300 music video. The freaking bomb.
Blackwater Park is amazing but this will always be my favorite Opeth album.
First like, first comment. 🙄🤣😂 They are some Metal fo sure!! 🎸 that voice 🎤 🤟😈🎼🎧 and then WTF?!!? WOWZA😳 I think I'm digging their vibe!!🙌👏✌❤ Thanks Alex for the intro of this band to me!!🎸🤟❤🤟🎸
The first time I heard this song I was confused but most importantly intrigued. At that time I wasn’t a fan of growls period. But boy did opeth help pop that cherry for me. What I like best about Mikaels growls is that they have character. It’s not monotone, it has flavor and emotion. This piece takes about 5-10 listens to really appreciate. As with most of their music, it’s best to take small bites to savor the ingredients because large bites will overwhelm and sometimes confuse (because it’s different).
Ghost of Perdition is my personal favourite Opeth song, but other recommendations I'd make are Harvest, Porcelain Heart and Bleak, although I honestly don't think you could choose a bad song by them so any choice is a good one.
Opeth over the years have become one of my all time favorite bands. It was a process, but the time has made me appreciate their work so much more. A special band indeed. Saw them with Mastodon the other day lol
WINDOWPANE!!! That is one Opeth song that I remember driving around in the snow and how it spoke to me on a whole different level.
Hey Alex! I know Opeth because I've worked with them in the past (we produce metal concerts in Costa Rica) and they are really nice ppl!!! Here is my list for you: Master Apprentice, Deliverance, Black water park, In my time of need (real slow and jazzy song, actually all Damnation album feels like grabing some wine and just enjoy). Welcome to the rollercoaster of emotions band!!
Every single Opeth album is really its own vibe. I really recommend for your own sake that you listen to their albums in their entirety, whether it be through reaction videos or just on your own. Though most of their songs are good on their own they are definitely ALL better when listening to it in the context of the album.
As I saw a wise fellow viewer comment on another video somwhere, you do not simply put on an Opeth song. You put on an Opeth album.
And looooved the reaction. Keep it up!
I know how you feel. This song was one of my first Opeth reaction, now I can't stop. Help me!
Oh sweet! Never expected to see another Opeth reaction from you. This was the song that got me into Opeth.
Best songs of Opeth's golden era:
- To Bid You Farewell
- The Moor
- Bleak
- Blackwater Park
- Deliverance
- Windowpane
- Ghost of Perdition
- Harlequin Forest
- Heir Apparent
- Hessian Peel
The lack of songs from My Arms Your Hearse is surprising. When, April Ethereal and Demon of the Fall are incredible songs.
Now check them out playing this song Live at Red Rocks and be amazed even further how well they sound live!
Got to hang out with Opeth at an Irish bar after the concert in Minneapolis because our ride got lost and was late, those guys are hilarious. I told Mikael Akerfeldt he was a musical brain surgeon, had people rolling lol
"Combination between Hell and Harmony" is the best, most vivid description I've heard so far, and it's so spot on
Finally my favorite song :-D congratulations on reaching 700k!
i would love to see more opeth reactions, Alex!
This is one of, if not THE greatest band to ever grace this earth. I think I speak for everyone when I say that you should do a full album reaction to pretty much any of their albums.
Also, if i'm not mistaken, I've heard them be described as an overall "Folk Prog-Metal" band. And I think thats a pretty accurate description
"Their combination between hell and harmony is awesome" They're the goats of this contrast. Next I'd recommend Harlequin Forest. Beautiful, yet haunting.
Love Opeth probably my favorite band, probably because I've always been a huge fan of the old the prog band's and of Metal, combine the two and you have Opeth, great choice 👍
Windowpane is my personal favorite Opeth song definitely worth checking out.
Also if you're ever in the mood for a song that's heavy with a ridiculous amount of energy you should check out Overconfidence by Tallah.
That whole album is magic!
I love watching people discover Opeth for the first time (I know it’s not his first listen but close enough). It takes me back to when I first heard the album black water park.
Finally. You'll realize soon enough how different Opeth are. How completely above.
My favorite Opeth album: Still Life
My favorite Opeth track: To Bid You Farewell (most epic buildup ever)
Funnily enough, my second favorite Opeth album is Morningrise and my second favorite track is Moonlapse Vertigo
The ENTIRE album!! Dude, the ENTIRE album is a masterpiece. I got into them album by album. Starting with Blackwater Park, Ghost Reverie and Still Life.
Masterpiece!!!
Opeth is the rabbit hole I never escaped. Has consistently remained my favourite band since I was introduced to Harlequin Forest 13 years ago.
I genuinely fall asleep to Opeth every night lol. I have two playlists, and one has all the songs without growling and it’s super relaxing to me (I like the growling normally too, hence the other playlist). They just have that type of melody and progression that you can just let yourself fall into, and not have wandering thoughts keeping you up.
really??! have you noticed any differences in your sleep since doing that?
@@AlexHefner Edit:Sorry for the wall of text.
I have real trouble falling asleep unless I can get rid of distracting thoughts, and it's one of two playlists I can load to help me sleep, been using that one for at least a decade. It's rare I remember more than a couple of songs playing before I fell asleep, puts me out like a light. I think it has around 25 songs from them, and none of them having any screaming or growling, they're all pretty chill songs.
The other one is a relaxing eastern sounding album that sounds straight from a massage parlor or something lol, so more what you might expect to find if you searched for relaxing soundtracks (Daniel May--Feng Shui).
I've been listening to the Daniel May one since I was like 12, but I've been using the Opeth one for at least a decade (I still have it playing on an old iPod Classic of all things, plugged into my bedside radio). Last two nights I feel asleep to Opeth, night before the May one, kinda alternate on a whim. The last time I had insomnia without my music was complete torture, just could not keep my mind from racing.
@@Xanderj89 Bone Thugs n Harmony's E. 1999 Eternal album used to help me a lot
@@SpaghettiWithMeatSauce they kinda smooth tho, I like their sound thanks for the recommendation
I second this opeth and tool I sleep too, then again I have chronic insomnia
Ghost of Perdition going into Baying of the Hounds might be the most epic 1-2 punch ever in metal.
Bit of a coincidence uploading this now considering they've just announced that they've parted ways with their drummer.
@Joe Parker Yeah, on their Facebook page. Therion's drummer is filling in.
Thank you for getting back to Opeth. Couple of great songs to try next would be
Master's Apprentices
Blackwater Park
Bleak
Deliverance
Welcome to Opeth, a rabbit hole you will never get out of.. takes a few listens to appreciate and know the songs intimately..
While Opeth fans can't always agree on which is there best song, we all agree that they are the greatest metal band that's ever lived.
Greatest band ever period
Seeing this song live back in 05 or 06 was one of my favorite concert moments of all time. The whole crowd singing that haunting vocal melody, still gives me goosebumps. But yeah, this album and Blackwater Park are their best in my opinion, definitely worth more reactions!
man that is awesome! are you going to see them again any time soon?
@@AlexHefner Not anytime soon unfortunately, but I am going to see Jinjer next month! Thanks for the reply, and keep up the great content my dude!
One of my all time favorite songs by Opeth. I’ve heard Ghost of Perdition described as the Bohemian Rhapsody of death metal and I think it’s definitely up there.
Thank you for doing Opeth. If you do more you bet I'll be watching them from beginning to end.
This is an album that needs to be listened to start to finish. Another amazing one is "The crowning of the fire king" by Sorcerer
I truly think Opeth is a genre, and there is only one band in it
Highly recommend Wilderun ;)
Actually there is a second one, it's called Ikuinen Kaamos from Finland.
I am so excited for your Opeth journey. My favorite is Godheads Lament, but there are so many great ones. Enjoy!
First caught Opeth wayyyyyy back 1999 in a pub in High Wycombe,my mates and me were blown away been massive fans ever since growls and clean vocals,I can’t fault them,shame drummer Martin Axenrot have just left the band,gonna be weird not seeing him behind the kit after 15 years,roll on November next year,check out The Drapery Falls,Bleak,Face of Melinda and Will O The Wisp 👍🏻
how about you react to some "Bloodbath", Mikael Åkerfeldt's (front singer of Opeth) and many other's side project Death Metal band.
Jinjer disclosure please
You are so funny 🤣 just love your funniness, your sense of humour and the life lessons/advise you give.... On top of listening to music. Thank you!
Dude, you've come such a long way in your musical journey; it's inspiring to see! Your vocabulary to describe what you're hearing has expanded so much since your early days as purely a "hip-hop head." It's been so neat to have you share this adventure with us and watch/hear you understand the nuances, mainstays, and rule-breakers of the genre! I hope you continue to enjoy exploring and sharing!
One cool thing about Opeth is that you'll be hearing something new every time you listen to them. One listen you'll catch the vocal harmonies and be like, the fuck?! How'd I not hear that before? Next it'll be little percussion flourishes; the next, the dynamics of the guitar parts. I swear, it never gets old.
Oh damn the red rocks amphitheater live of this would have been a much *much* better choice to discover the song !
I'm driving to work with Opeth early morning, makes me dangerous haha

Nobody ever knows who Turisas is happy to see them on your list
@Muck Why have you been shitting on all my posts for a few days? So much hate in you, you should relax, and maybe try to find a constructing way to channel your anger. Just saying...
@Muck And you clearly have no open-mindedness. Being passionate doesn't mean you have to harass me everytime I post.
When you see a message with which you disagree, you can just think that you disagree, maybe answer and express your disagreement in a polite and constructive way. But you sir, have been shitting on all my posts, you clearly have anger issues and you are very ill-mannered.
Also, you are bad advertisement for the bands you seem to promote, nobody wants to listen to a rude know-it-all like yourself.
This song literally came on while I was driving home from work! Sad news though, Martin the Opeth drummer left the band today... I also literally bumped into the band on a sidewalk before their concert I was going to with one of my bandmates and my brother here in Perth Australia a few years ago!!! We didn't stop for photos or anything, just calmly walked by and gave them a nod! We were fangirling the rest of the night!!! lol
Opeth are so awesome, majestic band!
You need to check out Harlequin Forest, Blackwater Park and Sorceress imo!
All for more Opeth reactions. I LOVE that you said it didn’t feel like 10 minutes. That’s a big thing for me with Opeth. It doesn’t feel unnecessarily long like Tool (forgive me).
Blackwater Park is an incredible song. Harvest, Drapery Falls, Dirge for November, Funeral Portrait, and Bleak are also ones you should check out. Guess you can tell what my favorite album is 😅
Why do I enjoy watching reactions to this song so much !?!
YES!!! I’ve requested this song so many times! I’m so happy to see you reacting to it
Ghost of Perdition was the first Opeth song I ever heard, back when Ghost Reveries first came out. I had to keep checking to see if it was still the first track! It's like 5 or 6 songs in one. Awesome!
YES MAN! Gotta do Hessian Peel, Deliverance, Blackwater park, Nectar, Windowpane, Reverie/Harlequin Forest …. Etc.
De-Li-Ve-Rance - Absolutely must check this song next their best, studio version - Opeth fans will get the "-" reference
Opeth - Deliverance
Laughing at me
"You don't know what to expect with Opeth"
Greatness Alex. Greatness.
Their song Hessian Peel. Criminally underrated.
I would listen to Opeth while playing Diablo 2 back in the day. Perfect fit
Nice to hear your opinion on Opeth! Now.. give a listen to some of the best song ever made Reverie/ Harlequin forest. Always gives me the chills ❤️
Something else to try if you like Opth would be 'Rivers of Nihil' - 'Where Owls Know My Name'.
Wore and Opeth T to a Jinjer concert couple years ago. Eugene walked past us and said "nice shirt".
Harlequin Forest
Burden
Devil's Orchard
Cusp of Eternity
To Bid You Farewell
Some of my favorites
I don't think I've ever heard a song from Opeth that didn't have acoustic in it, They're so good at utilizing it in an interesting way every time.
This is arguably the best metal song ever made..
Great reaction man! You have only just begun🤘 D music life is still going down the wormhole with opeth!! keep em coming!
