This album is the epitome of great german black metal. melodic, heavy, glorious, shrouded in arcane meaning and dripping with purest evil! One of my favorite black metal bands at the moment!

Opeth - Ghost Reveries
|
| 2005 Death's finnest |
|

This album Ghost Reveries marks the another full realization of Mikael Akerfeldts artistic vision. This is not just music that caters solely to the extreme crowd like Black Sabbath, like Bauhaus or like Nine Inch Nails. It's gloomy music for the masses, as exhilarating as it is ghostly. For anyone who doesn't mind a hint of darkness in their collection -who i know its large and full- this album is essential.
While the new album is a decidedly moody piece of work, it's both a very accessible album and a welcome return to the monstrous sounds of the past, something instantly noticeable on the opening track "Ghost of Perdition", which, after a brief, understated intro, explodes with distorted chords and death vocals. Only here, there's more nuance to Åkerfeldt's compositions, the disparate styles intertwining with a grace that is all too rare in metal music. Both "Ghost of Perdition" and "The Baying of the Hounds" mark a return to the challenging progressive strains of Deliverance, and especially on the latter, Åkerfeldt reaches a new level of creativity. After opening with a sensational, organ-driven groove reminiscent of Deep Purple and Uriah Heep, the song takes off on a winding road full of hairpin turns, from a murky movement dominated by Rhodes piano, to soaring, Isis style chords, to an astonishing, contemplative acoustic breakdown that materializes from out of nowhere, but fits perfectly, piano notes cascading, and mellotron droning mournfully in the background, before returning to the thunder of five minutes previous.

Dissection - Storm Of The Light's Bane/Where Dead Angels Lie

This album although it is not in my mind the best of the dissection albums has several of their best songs. Awesome soulreaper, beatifull where the dead angels lie. This is more "classical" black metal than the reinkarnos, but not as powerful as the somberline. All of these three albums are different but still this album sounds more its predecessor than the reinkarnos.
this album is jewel of my album collection.
