I can chill out to this music, use it as workout music, use it to get through web designing work, and sit down to appreciate Opeth in all their beauty. The music analysis part of my brain isn’t active when I listen to Opeth because I don’t feel the need to judge them.

    Opeth’s older albums are theme based. So for them making much out of the lyrics of individual songs is difficult. It’s more about the music. But for their newer albums, they are focusing on heaviness of the emotion and lyrics rather than the sound, so for newer tracks (Damnation onwards) lyrics are more important.

However, you can find a theme in most of their albums that create a pretty clear story/connection. Edit 2: Opeth has something for everyone. If you don’t care for screams (totally understandable) you can check out some songs like Face of Melinda, Benighted, Harvest, To Bid You Farewell, Hours of Wealth, Burden, Porcelain Heart, anything off of Damnation, and so much more.

And that is how you experience it. Sure digging up the lyrics can make you appreciate the song much more, but i think that is for subsequent listening, not the first.

    Honestly, it's totally cool for you to just sit back and listen to the music. I think we get a more genuine reaction when you're not having to think too much about what the lyrics mean while also trying to focus on all the musical nuances a particular track has.

    @@soullessSiIence If he doesn't like his own song, that's one thing. He also said that he is not a fan of By the Pain I See in Others, and that song is fucking awesome. But saying Black Rose Immortal is cringy, amateurish and black metal nonsense is exactly that. Nonsense. It has some of their best riffing, it shows how to build a climax (from the fifth to the ninth minute), some of his best clean vocals before the switch to prog rock and it doesn't feel like a 20 minuter at all. Of course, this is all subjective (as all opinions are), so no problem if you disagree. But Black Rose Immortal is a favorite, even if Mikael doesn't see it as such.

    Lots of people asking for reactions to Watershed and earlier era Opeth. But I'd like to hear something from Pale Communon. River or Faith In Others preferably. I think a lot of fans who were initially turned off by the dramatic style change have come back to Pale Communion over the years and really started to vibe with it. They stopped using growls after Watershed, so that'll help you a lot.

    I do enjoy the lyric speculation, however I do think for most tracks on first listen it's best to just focus on the music. I think if a lyric stands out to you, there's no harm in mentioning it. But as a consistent part of your videos, I feel it can be cut out. Especially if you feel it's making more work for you overall, and detracting from the music itself. (Also lyrics are like poetry sometimes, and discussing poetry is another channel entirely lol). Now for reactions I'd love to see: - Blackwater Park by Opeth (heavy growls, but once the track picks up, you'll be grooving so hard you won't even care) - Arriving Somewhere but not Here by Porcupine Tree - Passionflower by Jon Gomm (not metal, but when you see what he does with a guitar, you'll be shocked) - Deadhead (Live at Royal Albert Hall) by Devin Townsend - Exit Strategy of a Wrecking Ball by Diablo Swing Orchestra (new orleans swing + metal. It's great)

    Blackwater park is one of the album i have seen some people mentioning but I believe it deserves much more attention for this channel. The album is produced by a member of porcupine tree which is one of my favorite bands, and who i know you also very much enjoy. It contains a hint of their sound and this album ends with the self titled track Blackwater park which is a very fitting ending that builds into a climax. It starts slow and builds with emotion and ending with the growls you seem indifferent about. It may help you understand and maybe enjoy the growls more than you currently do. Please give this track if not the whole album consideration, you will not regret it!

    *_Opeth - Still Life_* It is a concept album, so the songs have a plot-line and one song's mood and tone progresses into the next song. Because of that, you would probably get the best and most authentic impression of the songs, if you listen through the entire album in one sitting. It would only be about 60 mins, and whether or not you decide to live stream it or keep it as single video, I'm guessing that you would save time by not having to edit it :)
