Can Opeth
ever do wrong? I think it is impossible for this band to compose music
that isn't great. Opeth has once again outdone themselves. There is
not a bad song on this album, not like they have ever written a bad
song, but hey, why start now? "Blackwater Park" picks up
where they last album "Still Life," left off. This opus
has eight songs to expand their already outstanding repertoire of
songs. For the fans of the first two albums there are a few songs
that last over ten minutes, and in it's entirety, "Blackwater
Park" last for over one hour and seven minutes. Definitely impressive
song lengths and maybe even more impressive musicianship. Here are
a few of my favorite songs on this CD: the first track "The Leper
Affinity," an all acoustic song "Harvest," just a kick
ass song "The Drapery Falls," and the title track "Blackwater
Park." The other tracks on this CD are just about equally as
good, so that should tell you something about this band; you need
to seriously take some time and check out Opeth! Once again, look
for Opeth to be on many peoples top ten albums of the year. There
is no stopping this unbelievable band. Rating: 96 |
