In my initial approach to metal with non-clean vocals, I was very turned off. The vocals, to me, were an enormous distraction, that made the music underneath difficult to enjoy.
And then I found Opeth. This album is a stunning mix of clean and death vocals, over a similarly stunning mix of brutal metal and soothing, almost lullaby-esque melodies. This leads to a very compelling album. I've always described this band's work as "If Pink Floyd played metal...," because their compositions ... Read More

This may be one of the best Metal albums there is. Opeth seem to have a great skill as song writers, and this album proves that more than no other. The first track we hear is titled "The Leper Affinity". It is a great way to start your journey into the blackwater park. Mixes all the aspects you will hear on this album, and there is also a beautiful piano at the end of it. The next song is "Bleak". The lyrics are great, and the riff's are killer. The third track is "Harvest". this is the lightest song on ... Read More

I have heard Death metal growl-style vocals referred to as "The Devil's Diaphragm" so that is what I mean by the above. For the record I HATE IT and find the style more nauseating than the worst attitude posturing rap garbage!!! They are the primary reason I could never get into the whole Death-Metal (and similar) genres and, in most cases, would rather listen to static!!!! And, with most of the bands, they have no real talent for singing so I guess this is all they can do!!
But Opeth is different!! ... Read More

As a lover of many different types of music from rock to classical to reggae to hip hop and everything in between, I must say that this album is a masterpiece. It is a true work of art. It sucks you in and takes you away to another place, it is truly hypnotizing. It gets better with age and repeated listens. At times it is angry and aggressive, other times it is beautiful and peaceful. One of the greatest albums of any genre, ever. Only true music fans will apreciate this though, this isnt for the casual FM ... Read More

These Swedish prog-metal masters/closet folkies are a breed apart and a cut above just about any band that might get mentioned in the same breath. The two extra tracks on the deluxe edition -- "Still Day Beneath the Sun" and "Patterns in the Ivy II" are good examples of the band's alter ego: acoustic guitars, pastoral themes and quiet vocals. Mikael Akerfeldt can sing sweetly and growl nastily with equal effect. Tunes such as "Harvest" and "The Drapery Falls" betray the South American roots of Opeth's rhythm section, ... Read More
