[QUOTE="Spence%20NLI:1357374"]I don't hate BWP or Deliverance, I just think they are HIGHLY overrated albums. Both albums have one great song each(Bleak, A Fair Judgment) and the rest of each is decent or mediocre. I'm sorry but if you'd rather listen to Harvest live instead of Nepenthe, or that The Drapery Falls is AWESOME-THEY-SHOULD-CLOSE-EVERY-SHOW-WITH-THIS whereas Heir Apparent isn't then you are just wrong. BWP and Deliverance are the most generic and uninspired Opeth albums easily, besides arguably Heritage - depending whether you think majorly boring prog metal or cookie cutter risk-free prog rock is more generic. As a whole, I rank the Opeth albums like this: Super amazing - Still Life, MAYH Pretty fucking great - Orchid, MR, Damnation, Watershed Good - Ghost Reveries, Heritage Decent - BWP, Deliverance The point is, Opeth isn't a LOL OLDSCHOOL IS AMAZING AND NEWSCHOOL SUCKS kind of band. Damnation and Watershed are both quite amazing albums despite being later in their career, and I find BWP to be one of the most overrated metal albums of all time despite it being "earlier". As to the lineup, that's all up to debate. As awesome as Peter Lindgren is, for instance, every live video i've seen of him is just him standing there being bored as fuck and butchering his solos - whereas the newer lead guitarist at least plays the stuff accurately live, and doesn't appear to be as bored. I've actually QUITE enjoyed Opeth every time i've seen them live, the exception being the Opeth/Mastodon/Ghost show last year - which I all around regret wasting money on. Opeth was BRILLIANT in 2011 when they did their all-clean-vocals set(despite the whining of people on Facebook) and I felt Opeth were great the other day at NEMAHF. Oh yeah, last note about Heritage: all the songs are hit or miss for me. The songs I like I LOVE, the songs I dislike I can't stand. As to grace for Drowning. Don't know what to tell you. I listen to music for atmosphere and for the emotional value usually, and so I find it very moving. It's the same reason I love MOST Porcupine Tree, but hate songs like Blackest Eyes despite it being one of their most popular songs. [/QUOTE]
