So good, one of their best forsure imo.

This album is indeed a concept album. The story, as set out by writer and vocalist Mikael Akerfeldt goes: " The character dies, becoming a ghost upon earth. His funeral being described in the prologue. He comes to spiritual life in April and the rest of the album covers the struggle for recognition of his foggy state. He gets to see the days of the ones left behind. He tries to affect people in any way possible. The woman is not necessarily betraying him physically, but her grief is not enough for his ego. He expected her to suffer his demise for ages. When this is not the case, frustration creeps in making him an invisible stalker, and eventually a spiritual mare thrown unto the faces of the ones left on earth." One cool little thing is that the final lyric/word of each track is the title of the next one. 'When' finishes with "When is the new beginning, and the end of this sad Madrigal?" Madrigal is a cool little acoustic song that's sinister as fuck. Given that you've loved every single Opeth track you've listened to, I admire your patience and restraint in not just diving into the full catalogue! They truly haven't done a bad song in like a dozen albums. You have a lot to get through ;)

Modern sign of a great concept album: Every song from the album (reaction/live/original music video) has at least one comment explaining the genius intricacies of the album for anyone that will hopefully get to experience Opeth the same way we all did. I hate that MAYH is fading into their back catalogue, but I love that people decades later are still discovering and spreading the joy. 🤘🥰

I travelled to Bulgaria from Manchester to see Opeth play with an orchestra , in an amphitheater. It was a full on weekend , lots of travel in a short space of time .I was on the front row with the speakers right in front of me trying my best to keep awake. Worth every penny. Amazing.

OPETH did it again! they are so great in all aspects... i recommend you guys "Godhead`s lament", next. another masterpiece. or else: "By the pain i see in others".

April ethereal, nectar, windowpane, beneath the mire, face of Melinda, godheads lament, by the pain i see in others, burden, dude..... You have so fucking great songs to do still.... Mikael is the Best songwriter ever, they haven't any song that isn't a Masterpiece.... Greetings from chile 🤘🤘

Glad to see you guys are back. I've really enjoyed all your Opeth reactions, and this song is one of my favorites from my favorite Opeth album. My suggestions: - April Ethereal (from this album, My Arms, Your Hearse) - By The Pain I See in Others (from Deliverance) - A Fair Judgement (from Deliverance) For a more mellow/melancholy side of Opeth: - Windowpane (from Damnation) - Hope Leaves (from Damnation) For newer prog stuff: - Eternal Rains will Come (from Pale Communion) - Moon Above, Sun Below (from Pale Communion) - Heart In Hand (from In Cauda Venenum)

You cant go wrong with opeth.

Can't beat starting the year with Opeth! Was just thinking about you guys today and when we'd see another Opeth reaction, and you give us 'When!' Great reaction! Next track: 'Burden'

Silhouette, Under the Weeping Moon, To bid you Farewell, Moonlapse Vertigo(roundhouse tapes maybe?), Harvest, Wreath OR By the pain I see in Others, Windowpane OR Closure, Beneath the Mire - Atonement(twofer?), Burden, I feel the Dark, Moon Above Sun Below, Sorceress, and maybe just the whole Album - In Cauda Venenum

When, Face of Melinda, Bleak, Demon of the Fall, I all first heard on The Roundhouse Tapes. Give that live version a listen.

APRIL ETHEREAL

They have returned! My favorite reaction couple 🤗🤗. Seriously missed y’all. Another banger too. Starting a petition for y’all to react to Spiritbox - Eternal Blue!! I’m obsessed with it loll

Good to see you guys back. You're really the only channel that I can say, "They like shit I like" 100% Amen corner or Demon of the Fall. Really, anything.

I can't tell you how satisfying it is seeing someone explore Opeth with the same childlike wonder and amazement that I once did. Great stuff!

BY THE PAIN I SEE IN OTHERS... must hear this one

OPETH - PORCELAIN HEART

Oooooohhh man I love your opeth reactions the most 😂😂😂 my favorite couple reaction channel by a landslide

Great Track! Godhead's Lament - Opeth is what you need now! Keep going, you are amazing guys!

So many perfect songs from Opeth. You really can't go wrong with any. We all have favorites, but I for one, constantly keep moving from one album to another. Suggestions, By The Pain I See in Others, and Advent.

Probably my favourite track of this great band. Holds a special place for me! As does the rest of this album. 🤘

Your opeth reactions bring me so much joy. Every true opeth enthusiast goes through the same emotional roller coaster you experience live in your videos. Truly amazing.

You two are ‘crushing it’ ….watched all your Opeth reactions multiple times…… if ever (& doubt I ever will) stumble into a bar and see you two….drinks on me :) cheers

You guys are crazy!!!! Omg what a great video and song! I love ur reactions because I felt the same exact way when I first heard this! I have heard them all and you have a loooooonnnngggg way to go with lots of goodness! Let me pick the next song pleeeeease? Its so easy... Godheads Lament!! Lets keep 2022 as metal as we can! You guys rock!!!

Love opeth as much as i can. Love you guys for reminding love for them

Just unbelievable. This band is greatness incarnated.

this song is just absolute perfection imo.

Good to see you guys. I've been back on the Opeth train the last several weeks and listening to songs I never listened to before, they're still blowing me away. Maybe you should check out one of the later album's songs, like Dignity or Cusp of Eternity. They're not really metal but they still have a cool sound and sick guitar. Then again you haven't listened to a really soft one, I think. You guys should probably do a poll, there's still a lot of options.

Hi Guys .. Thank you so much for reacting to Opeth again. I so love your reaction to my favourite band...you make me smile so much. This track ..When.. is from the third album My Arms Your Hearse. It's one of my favourites... having said that...one of so many 👍😆. If you can check out live tracks check out ..this track Live from the Roundhouse London.. it's a cracking version. Looking forward to your next reaction guys. Peace from Liverpool UK 👍✌️🤘☮️

Boy oh boy am I happy to see you two! Great reaction, great fucking band

Yeeessssss you have no idea how long I've been waiting for this 😂 I knew he was going to freak the fuck out!

The Funeral Portrait, April Ethereal

I love your Opeth reactions and the appreciation to their drumwork. In this song the drummer was Martin Lopez and he is a beast and have his own style, very relaxed but brutal. Now he plays drums and writes songs to SOEN. If you like to search new music, try song called Antagonist or Martys...

Brilliant Opeth reaction as usual.... time for some new style Opeth? All things will pass would be my shout.....keep up the good work

This song changed my life many years ago.

Yes!!! When was my first experience with Opeth. It will always be my favorite song.

A beautifully emotional song ❤️😢

Love your reactions to opeth what a great band and musicians

Version from "The Roundhouse Tapes" is a pure masterpiece.

The song that started it for me. It was on a compilation album many years ago when I was in high school around 1999 or so

Yep we all waited for this moment 🤣

This is the one we've all been waiting for, thank you!! When you next get round to Opeth can I recommend Dirge for November

9:00 ah yes the thousand yard Opeth stare.

I forgot how I stumbled upon you guys but I loved watching your Opeth and Tool song reviews! (two of my fav bands) Try: Edge Of Sanity - Twilight :P

i am so happy you discovered this great band, I did back in 2004 , by the way opeths music is winter metal !!!!!

I remember buying this album in 2001 and driving home for 2 and a half hours in complete amazement at what my ears were experiencing, Check out Dark Tranquillitys album "Character" it had the same effect on me as "my arms, your hearse" 🤘

I was about to ask, isn't it about time!

Enjoy Opeth. They really are a treasure.

From my top 2 Opeth's albums of all time.
