How to listen to an Opeth song: 1 listen to it, 2 read every single comment that says "minute X is the best", 3 listen to the song over and over again for 1 hour
Probably the most overlooked masterpiece in their catalogue. Everyone talks about Ghost, Forest, and Conjuration from this album, but this song is just as good as those
3:25 to 5:20 is my favourite Opeth moment in all their discography. They sure have many genius, emotional and technical parts, but this one always gets to me. With the concept of the album in mind, it inspires entering the depth of individual darkness, merging with fear, deep regret.. The point of no return.
i feel like this song is the culmination of Opeth's 'Steven Wilson' era, i.e. the styles on Damnation and Deliverance. the heaviness and the soft parts are in full effect and not a second is wasted. every other moment i find myself in awe at what one group of guys playing music can achieve. one of their most perfect songs for me
The balance has become perfect From Hearst to Watershed before & after & then fuckn fry everyone LIVE@ Lick a sheet of LSD NOT!!! YYYEEAAAAAAHHHHH! shhhhhhit DON'T... ....DO IT...
For me, every album is just what it should be. Ghost Reveries means a lot for me tho, and i find it to be Opeth's masterpiece. But i don't think we should actually compare Opeth eras because in a way, all the albuns are above average.
This is arguably one of the best songs Opeth ever did. Actually, scratch that. This IS one of the best songs Opeth ever did - and that's saying something, because Opeth does not put out merely average or bad music
Definitely one of my favorites, along with with Harlequin Forest and the Drapery Falls and maybe a few others (weasel wording in case I forgot something. Eternal Rains is pretty great.)
Sorry, i have a real hard time distinguishing one of Opeth's very best song's from another, cuz they are ALL 11+ on a scale of 1-10 Every song on every album has such incredible musical depth and style.There are not alot of bands that you can play 2 different songs from & not know it's the same band.Such is the diversity of Opeth, from the heaviest darkest metal with cookie monster vocals to soft jazz, & then classical piano concerto & then blues, & acoustic guitar with soaring harmonies, all in the same song!
The whole song is awesome, but the part from 2:15 to 2:49... first the transition, the harmonies, beautiful layered vocals, how the guitar closes the part... and this "tragic" atmosphere, as I would call it... just wow!! Leaves me speechless
Rielle L. This is one of the main reasons I don't usually like growling lyrics and death metal in general. Mikael does it so well that even on a first listen the lyrics are audibly present and understandable. Something most singers lack the ability to do it seems.
Martin Lopez brought a kind of latin sound to some parts which is interesting I definitely felt expanded the band but Axeneot has a lot of orog influences so he fits the current incarnation of Opeth.
CALLING ME BACK TO MY HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMEUH.
It's so brutal and beautiful at the same time. If memory serves, it reminds me of the ”chorus” part of a song by Cranes I haven't heard for like 20 years, Adrift.
If I could only choose 5 Opeth songs I was allowed to listen to from now on, this would have to be one of them, easily my favorite off of Ghost Reveries! Literally every minute of this song defines Opeth in their songwriting prime to me.
@@__somnii i know no one talks about one of my favourite sequences especially with the growling. imagine if they did a orchestral version of this. unimaginablely beautiful
That fckng ending is simply orgasmic. My favourite Opeth song, which alone deserves Ghost Reveries. So, I don't have to tell nothing if we add Ghost of Perdition, Beneath The Mire, Atonement, Harlequin Forest or The Grand Conjuration... We get, for me, one of the best records of the century
@@celiktenklc1795 great reply man couldn't agree more.OOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.Fuckin' Akerfeldt GGGGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!
9:42 Åkerfeldt rises on stage with a platform that has a small one-man pirate boat on it, puts a pirate hat and an eye patch on, takes a fake sword and and starts swinging, the boat starts to swing at 9:58, and there's explosion/fire special effects and Åkerfeldt starts to march with the sword in hand sideways to the crowd, with the boat and blue cardboard waves swinging to the rhythm
Once you've read that comment, you cannot unsee the scene unfolding In your head everytime you play the song. Just when you tought it could not be better :O !
LINED UP VERSES ON DEAD SKIN, THE TAINTED LIPS OF A STRANGER RESTING UPON HERS. Those lyrics, followed by that riff ... is the most evil and sinister sounding part of any song I've ever heard IMO.
This is some of the best metal ever made and it makes me feel things. The mixture of tragedy and doom and frenzy - nobody else hits these emotional and thematic frequencies. Only Opeth
hear the baying of the hounds In the distance, I hear them devouring Pest ridden jackals of the earth Diabolical beasts and roaming the forests In wait and constant protectors Calling you to sit by his side Your self loathing image in his flesh A revelation upon which you linger His words are flies Swarming towards the true insects Feasting on buried dreams And spreading decay upon your skin His eyes spew forth a darkness That cut through and paralyze Casts light upon your secrets Forced to confront your enemies His mouth is a vortex Sucking you into it's pandemonium Fools you with a helping hand of ashes Reached out in false dismay His body is a country The cities lay dead and beyond despair Friends turned enemies unable to come clean In a rising fog of reeking death Everything you believed is a lie Everyone you loved is a death burden So you take comfort in him And you are receptive to stark wishes No longer struggling to declare your stand You would inflict no harm to others They are unaware of you And in a loop of futile events You are everything, they are nothing Drown in the deep mire With past desires Beneath the mire Drown desire now with you Lined up verses on dead skin "The tainted lips of the stranger Resting upon hers" And I embrace bereavement Everything beloved is shattered anyway I would devote myself to anyone I would accept any flaws I am too weak to resist Tension vibrating with horror Finding the outcast in my eyes Pushing nerves on a puppet Endless poison in my veins Clean intent now tainted with death And so, cold touch now inhumane Every waking hour Awaiting a reverie to unfold And now they are calling me Louder by the minute The baying of the hounds Calling me back to my home
Opeth is the most harmonic, melodic, and demonic band of all time. They are the closest thing to perfection that exists in music, period( before Heritage).
Iluvurmomdubc listen to heritage 10 times..you will realise same about that as well..its just that heritage and pale communion take more tries to digest..probably they are musically more deep
This one's definitely grown on me. Didn't quite click with me when I first listened to Ghost Reveries, but now I think it's one of the best on the album, if not the best.
As a bass player, I just love the bass riff at about 10:07, it fits so well with everything else that leads up to it! Certainly one of my favourites of the many great Opeth songs.
Probably my favourite ever few minutes of Opeth from 3:30 to 8:00 ... Haunting, beautiful, melancholy, sad, bittersweet, brutal & exciting.... human life in music form. Thank you!
True... Ghost reveries and deliverance are masterpieces that depict the diversity of Martin Lopez as a drummer... His playing is phenomenal... it's something you almost crave like nicotine.
9:42 is like crack cocain to me I fucking LOVE THIS PART. It's like a sweet respite And then when it goes back to the heavier part its so perfect og my god
Heard this live once, long ago. I just happened to stand near one of those huge bass speakers. Then that first chord opened, and I swear, I literally soared slightly above the ground for a long moment of pure bliss. The loud bass made the ground impossible to feel beneath my feet.
0:26 BEST MADE TACOS OF THE EARTH...... DIABOLICAL BEANS!
Mari Pellegrino ;)
I... love you?
Mari Pellegrino I know right , it's so bad ass. This will crack me up until the end of time.
Mari Pellegrino I know right , it's so bad ass. This will crack me up until the end of time.
Best made tacos of the earth... this and "There's a bathroom on the right" by CCR, are the funniest mis-heard lyrics ever.
Nothing beats some good old baying of the hounds before bedtime.
Yes lol
I dare to challenge you by stating that baying of the hounds right after waking up is better

You know a song is good when every second comment refers to a specific part of the song and states it to be the epitome of a feeling.
Hell yeah, man!
5:24 I can't get enough of it, it's overwhelming.

Fuck yea. That’s what it’s all about.

Probably the most overlooked masterpiece in their catalogue. Everyone talks about Ghost, Forest, and Conjuration from this album, but this song is just as good as those
My favorite Opeth song
*AMEN*
This whole album is the best part of the album.
00:00 - 10:41 is my favorite part

Last idk as say 5 mos now.. totally going down the rabbit hole w this band.. love comments like this bro..
I agree
Excellent description dude!

Ricardo Clemente When Opeth started working work Steve Wilson, their style started getting softer.
The balance has become perfect
From Hearst to Watershed before & after & then fuckn fry everyone LIVE@ Lick a sheet of LSD NOT!!!
YYYEEAAAAAAHHHHH!
shhhhhhit DON'T...

For me, every album is just what it should be.
Ghost Reveries means a lot for me tho, and i find it to be Opeth's masterpiece. But i don't think we should actually compare Opeth eras because in a way, all the albuns are above average.
They may got softer but I believe that they got darker since their first collaboration with Steven
@@comradefreedom8275 Deliverance and Ghost Reveries contain some of their heaviest parts though.
this is like 5 good songs combined
jason petroze poser, this is half a song
Dr. Breadsticks lol yeah, black rose immortal is one good 20 min song literally
Dr. Breadsticks yeah lol deadass 😂
That's the most basic of Opeth song formats, usually more like 7-10 songs😂😂😂 Still a masterpiece, Opeth is another plane of musical existence
You mean 5 excellent songs combined to an all-round masterpiece?
This is arguably one of the best songs Opeth ever did. Actually, scratch that. This IS one of the best songs Opeth ever did - and that's saying something, because Opeth does not put out merely average or bad music
Definitely one of my favorites, along with with Harlequin Forest and the Drapery Falls and maybe a few others (weasel wording in case I forgot something. Eternal Rains is pretty great.)
Ghost Reveries is a truly underappreciated album. Also I think I just made that word up.
I agree, I always come back to this song
Totally agree!
Sorry, i have a real hard time distinguishing one of Opeth's very best song's from another, cuz they are ALL 11+ on a scale of 1-10
Every song on every album has such incredible musical depth and style.There are not alot of bands that you can play 2 different songs from & not know it's the same band.Such is the diversity of Opeth, from the heaviest darkest metal with cookie monster vocals to soft jazz, & then classical piano concerto & then blues, & acoustic guitar with soaring harmonies, all in the same song!
The section starting at 9:42 is amazing. It's surprisingly uplifting for an Opeth song.
thats why I love this band, they just pull out these unexpected parts, fits well and gives a nice dynamic
It's a GREAT chord progression man. Classic Opeth sound.
It kinda reminds me of Octane Twisted by Porcupine Tree
My favorite theme of the song. Wish It was expanded further.
I agree, also started thinking of Porcupine tree or something
2:05 "Everything you believed is a lie. Everyone you loved, is a dead bird."
+Vorcov 0:26 "best made tacos on the earth"
+Guitarmatt89 holy fuck I'm dying
+Vorcov Bird, or burden? Can't be sure
Definitely burden. One of Akerfeldt's favorite words.
Gatitasecsii
That's what I thought too
I was going to play videogames before going to bed, but nooooo. I just had to groove to Opeth for two hours.
i know that feel, bro
Literally this
mcgibs how's that one opeth song xD
mcgibs Literally doing this rn
So, about three or four songs?
5.25 minute of ecstasy starts. 5.53 chills, you fall on your knees and cry 6.06 climax of the song, you feel you're dissolving into the universe.
+Jared Dowty opeth embodies structure.
The whole song is awesome, but the part from 2:15 to 2:49... first the transition, the harmonies, beautiful layered vocals, how the guitar closes the part... and this "tragic" atmosphere, as I would call it... just wow!! Leaves me speechless
Love that groove!
@@jimmckenna707

nice pfp mate
5:25 - pure genius
3:15 - 5:25 is one of their career-defining moments imho.
The best part of the song.
What do you mean career-defining?
When you can call growling beautiful
It's amazing how he can growl and deliver the lyrics at the same time!!
Especially for like legit 10 mins at a time for a whole album
DecrepitOrigin888 They mean that you can make out the lyrics as Mikael growls.
Rielle L. This is one of the main reasons I don't usually like growling lyrics and death metal in general. Mikael does it so well that even on a first listen the lyrics are audibly present and understandable. Something most singers lack the ability to do it seems.
The solo.
My face.
Why is Opeth so fucking good?
The guys in the band are hugely underrated legends in their own right
Best band on the planet as it stands
Opeth is just a name Satan has used audibly lol so fucking good
Swedes
One word: variety
That uplifting section buried right near the end gets me every time...
one of those parts that when i first heard it my eyes just went wide and my jaw dropped, like "how much better does this band get, goddamn"
Martin Lopez was by far their best drummer, and in my opinion one of the best drummmers I've ever heard
Axe is incredible, but I agree. Lopez elevated the band and allowed Mikael to explore all his musical inclinations
@@88omair axe fits their prog era really well thoughh
He can fill a fkin hole, that's for sure. not an easy thing with songs this dynamic.
LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS WITH THEIR NEW KID.. SEEMS REALLY TALENTED
Martin Lopez brought a kind of latin sound to some parts which is interesting I definitely felt expanded the band but Axeneot has a lot of orog influences so he fits the current incarnation of Opeth.

Best advice ever!

5:24 my favorite part, like going down a hill :D
I know this comment is three years past, but I was looking for this exact moment to show a friend. Thanks!
It's so brutal and beautiful at the same time. If memory serves, it reminds me of the ”chorus” part of a song by Cranes I haven't heard for like 20 years, Adrift.
Yeah, mine too. But for me, is like being chased by a pack of wolves. Same chill through the spine.
The riff on 1:50 does things to me
one of my favourite metal riffs Mikael ever wrote; criminally underrated
The whole album is such an untouchable achievement. Pure artistic perfection.
The groove on this song is so fucking sick, and the organ part adds just the perfect tinge of 60s psychedelia.
Is it me or this is a beautiful song.....
If I could only choose 5 Opeth songs I was allowed to listen to from now on, this would have to be one of them, easily my favorite off of Ghost Reveries! Literally every minute of this song defines Opeth in their songwriting prime to me.
Totally agree. This and Ghost of Perdition are my top 2!
very good way to put it; this song is Opeth in their prime for sure
agreed
Aleks Ulmer ghost of perdition is cool I just get sick of the "aaahhhhhaaaahhhhhhhhhhheeeeyyaaaheeeyyaaahhh" section
@Andrew Funeral Portrait is the weirdest pick. Easily the worst song on Blackwater Park
1:50 Literally can't help but turn it up. My hand involuntarily moves towards the volume every time
People making “diabolical beans” jokes over and over again for this song is gonna be one of my 13 reasons why
This song is an absolute masterpiece. Feel privileged to have seen them live for this tour
5:25 got me through quarantine.
It's not over yet friend..

And people have the audacity to say that album doesn't sound like a mid 2000s Opeth album..........
6:20 is just too good
This is my favorite Opeth song, and is a serious contender for my favorite song period.

Opeth has a lot of great songs, including several masterpieces. This one is still my favorite.
That end of solo transition is just so ridiculously clean
Beneath the mire drown desire now with you...
LINED UP VERSES ON DEAD SKIN, THE TAINTED LIPS OF A STRANGER RESTING UPON HERS. Those lyrics, followed by that riff ... is the most evil and sinister sounding part of any song I've ever heard IMO.
2:34-2:56 because of when i first really got pulled into this song, i was in tears right there
Joshy Bear Me too, man!
This is one of my favorite Opeth songs.
I love the groovy guitar riff. It actually makes you dance
Which one the whole song has like 10 groovy riffs
one of the best songs written in modern history. takes you on a journey, so many different types of music all in one!
The organ completes this song
8:30 on, that keyboard and the growls hit perfectly.
3:04 that transition is just epic like 6 bars of totally different riffs
7:28 says it all...
True
that sudden bliss.. shit..
This band is so damn good
One of the Best Rock Band in human history!
One of the best produced albums, amazing sound quality.
This is some of the best metal ever made and it makes me feel things. The mixture of tragedy and doom and frenzy - nobody else hits these emotional and thematic frequencies. Only Opeth
Childhood memories
Michael Akerfeldt is an Angel. Angels feel pure love.
5:20 is one of my favourite opeth riffs
so good
I love the bit with the drums and the guitars
That part when the piano comes in with the guitar it is chilling in a way.
This song got me into Opeth. Truly that one song that stays forever with me.
I hope it's among your top bands by now.

hear the baying of the hounds
In the distance, I hear them devouring
Pest ridden jackals of the earth
Diabolical beasts and roaming the forests
In wait and constant protectors
Calling you to sit by his side
Your self loathing image in his flesh
A revelation upon which you linger
His words are flies
Swarming towards the true insects
Feasting on buried dreams
And spreading decay upon your skin
His eyes spew forth a darkness
That cut through and paralyze
Casts light upon your secrets
Forced to confront your enemies
His mouth is a vortex
Sucking you into it's pandemonium
Fools you with a helping hand of ashes
Reached out in false dismay
His body is a country
The cities lay dead and beyond despair
Friends turned enemies unable to come clean
In a rising fog of reeking death
Everything you believed is a lie
Everyone you loved is a death burden
So you take comfort in him
And you are receptive to stark wishes
No longer struggling to declare your stand
You would inflict no harm to others
They are unaware of you
And in a loop of futile events
You are everything, they are nothing
Drown in the deep mire
With past desires
Beneath the mire
Drown desire now with you
Lined up verses on dead skin
"The tainted lips of the stranger
Resting upon hers"
And I embrace bereavement
Everything beloved is shattered anyway
I would devote myself to anyone
I would accept any flaws
I am too weak to resist
Tension vibrating with horror
Finding the outcast in my eyes
Pushing nerves on a puppet
Endless poison in my veins
Clean intent now tainted with death
And so, cold touch now inhumane
Every waking hour
Awaiting a reverie to unfold
And now they are calling me
Louder by the minute
The baying of the hounds
Calling me back to my home
Favorite song off this album. The nostalgia is overwhelming
Most badass intro ever
Let us all take a moment and appreciate the bassline at 10:05.
how beautiful this song is?
Ghost Reveries to me is Opeths best album.
07:28 - 07:59 :X This band is inhumanely good
Opeth is the most harmonic, melodic, and demonic band of all time. They are the closest thing to perfection that exists in music, period( before Heritage).
Iluvurmomdubc dude..what if i say heritage is the deepest music composition on planet. Its just that it takes 2-3 years to get this fact
Iluvurmomdubc listen to heritage 10 times..you will realise same about that as well..its just that heritage and pale communion take more tries to digest..probably they are musically more deep
Hey now Pale Communion is amazing too
I really like socress but old opeth takes the cake for me
Old opeth and new opeth are both amazing
Demonic? Nothing about Opeth is demonic besides perhaps the brutal vocals.
7:59 this part is soooo underrated, my favorite part
9:57 That "OOOOOOOO" with reverb... It's kind of relaxing
This one's definitely grown on me. Didn't quite click with me when I first listened to Ghost Reveries, but now I think it's one of the best on the album, if not the best.
Same here. One of my best friends recommended it to me. I listen to this often when I’m at the beach here in California
Best song in the album.
this album is epitome of progressive metal .. one of the best albums ever made ...
"PINCH THE NOSE OF A PUPPET!!" 9:34
I'm going to say it.
In my opinion, best Opeth song.
As a bass player, I just love the bass riff at about 10:07, it fits so well with everything else that leads up to it! Certainly one of my favourites of the many great Opeth songs.
Everything from 9:43 to 10:14 the bass is perfect
The whole 6/8 feel works so well with the bass rhythmic accent too
I hear the baying of the houndssssssssssssssss...
7:28 hits me just right
This might be my favorite Opeth song.
Найкращий прог метал який я чув за все життя кількість чудових рифів і переходів просто неймовірна
Probably my favourite ever few minutes of Opeth from 3:30 to 8:00 ... Haunting, beautiful, melancholy, sad, bittersweet, brutal & exciting.... human life in music form. Thank you!
Martin Lopez's brilliance is so significant to what gives this song its beauty and power. What a beautiful man behind the kit.
True... Ghost reveries and deliverance are masterpieces that depict the diversity of Martin Lopez as a drummer... His playing is phenomenal... it's something you almost crave like nicotine.
@@kapildwivedi826 yes absolutely. And to think that he was also the drummer for the Damnation album. Such versatility gosh.
damn what a bassline 8:35
Fire🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
9:42 is like crack cocain to me I fucking LOVE THIS PART. It's like a sweet respite And then when it goes back to the heavier part its so perfect og my god
The sound in the beginning with the organ reminds me of Deep Purple. But so. much. heavier.
It is eargasmic. This is Per's masterpiece. His best performance on anything ever
From 2:20-2:50 is my favorite Opeth chorus. I don’t know why, but it just sounds so damn good
I agree, this is one of my all time favorite choruses of ANY band ever.
