Yeah, Port Noir!

Lovely picks!

I got Opeth at 1, Fleshgod Apocalypse - Opera at 2

I was never a huge fan of Judas Priest but I agree on invincible shield being nr 2 and Leprous ending up a bit underwhelming. I have to catch up on the others.

There harmonies are like major key/ happy AIC harmonies.

Thanks for your video. It looks like I have some new bands to check out.

Caligula's Horse - Charcoal Grace was my number one. I agree Lerpous was decent but underwhelming. I thought Wheel's album is a little underappreciated. Anciients album was killer. Anyways opinions are just that! Hope you have a great year brother

King's X, Black Label Society, Blackberry Smoke, Clutch. My Favorite bands of all time.

It was an entertaining video but come on putting the debut album so far to the bottom and putting Mr bulbous to the top? Wowwww.....thats like saying St Anger is better than Kill Em All. Come on man....Bulbous is the worst by far

24 footprints? 12 people? Echoes, cant leave house. this is very deep stuff. 24 light years, that puzzles me.?

I have tis song going all the time in my car, but I cant get it loud enough. This song should be on an SSSS or some thing. All must here this song.

This was my fav from this album. Inspired me to take guitar seriously.

Sink in inhale the ichorrr

Looking forward to top of 2024

Super stupid, but I only learned they had a new album! Will visit them in February (Netherlands). But your review is really 'pure', and good, thanks for it!

nice review, indeed, incredible work

definitely overgivenheten on the top. such an incredible album. and it resonnate deeply when, perhaps, let say, you're past 45. the lyrics are meaningful , sad, melancholic. saw them live 2 months ago (and 2 years ago as well) opening for in flames in paris, had a blast, they played their killer new single composed by Simon the new guitarist (who's also a producer and ssl freak) and finished the set with stalfagel (on wich my kid is on my shoulders at 1'20 on their video tour recap, couldn't be more happy🎉)

Many say that the lyrics are not the reason why they listen to Opeth. But the power of this song can be understood more deeply by those who have gone through such a situation. Mikael Akerfeldt was going through a divorce at the time. The song is musically beautiful, but these lyrics made me cry for two days.

First progressive band was Watchtower

I was pleasantly surprised by this album. Despite its short length, it's quite a bit to digest, but once you do... it grabs hold of you and demands its attention.

This whole album is perfect. Nothing I like better than early Dark Tranquility.

To me are TPE, Be & RL the top 3 from this great band !!

new Opeth thoughts?

You better believe they can play this live. I saw them in 2017 and they closed the concert with this song as an encore (imagine - a 23-minute encore!) after doing the entire Images & Words album plus throwing in As I Am, Pull Me Under, and even a cover of Metallica's Master of Puppets. All with Mike Mangini on drums. Defiitely the best bunch of musicians in my book...

Focus è un disco leggendario! Uno dei 10 dischi che porterei con me nella tomba

I love how as the song progresses the smile on your face gets larger. Listening to Sithu makes me smile uncontrollably as well. Food for the soul.

Thanks a lot!

Damn you feel it. Really feel it. This Band helped me through multiple layers of depression. (forgive my english if i misspelled something, i´m german). Its sooo nice to see how you enjoy that music. People that not only listen to, but feel Music like you seemingly do, are getting rare. You have my like.

I'm so excited for the new Album this band has done so much for me. Thanks for the Reaction and your thoughts.

I recommend 2 bands, Dvne and Hippotraktor. Both heavy progressive bands and my 2 favourite discovery’s of the past couple of years.

My ranking for the Queensryche albums would be🤘 15. Dedicated To Chaos 2011 14. Operation Mindcrime II 2006 13. Digital Noise Alliance 2022 12. The Verdict 2019 11. Condition Human 2015 10. American Soldier 2009 9. Q2K 1999 8. Tribe 2003 7. Hear In The Now Frontier 1997 6. Queensryche 2013 5. Rage For Order 1986 4. The Warning 1984 3. Operation Mindcrime 1988 2. Empire 1990 1. Promised Land 1994

ya...stupid

one of the most important metal albums ever made.

Discovering Mikael's pure voice and how good a singer he is, led me to love and respect growl as well.

🖤🖤🖤

Thanks for the review...I was waiting for it. Love the album, VOLA is an amazing band, my favorite one. We will not disband is for me the best song on this album. Greetings from Chile.

This album to me was a perfect blend of Applause Of A Distant Crowd & Witness. That being said Witness still stands as my favourite album from Vola followed by Applause Of A Distant Crowd then this album ahead of In Mazes. I would say after the 3rd full listen of this album it really grew on me. Still keeping true to their unique sound from start to finish they do a really good job balancing out the heavy and soft tracks. We Will Not Disband is up there in top songs of the year for me. Out of the singles dropped before the album I Don't Know How We Got Here I always go back too such a great song. Bleed Out & Hollow Kid the heavier songs off the album sound like they could've been off Witness and the epic chorus of Tray to finish off the album. This is my AOTY for prog metal 2024 unless Opeth's new album changes my mind lol. Great review man!

Tremendously powerful and atmospheric track by Swallow the Sun "Out of the Gloomy Light" - from the very beginning to the end it's a massive epic experience. Agree with everything Sonically Disruptive REDUX commented on this devastating classic.

To me, "Friend of a phantom" brings back that "Inmazes" and "Applause..." VOLA feeling I missed on "Witness". Production wise "Witness" was written to give new producer Jakob Hansen something to produce...rawer versions of songs to bring his style of producing to the VOLA sound. "Friend of a phantom" is (like all VOLA stuff except "Witness") again produced by singer Asger (Jakob Hansen Was responsible for mix and mastering) and in my opinion that brings back that feelings I had when I first listen to "Applause..." and "Inmazes". "Witness" is a great album, but "Friend of a phantom" is next level. Looking forward to see the band on Nov. 19th in Cologne/Germany

Saw them in the early 90s in Panama City, Fl. Then saw them in Santa Rosa FL. Hung out with them after the PC show. they were running RC cars in the parking lot.

I’ve still got the t -shirt from the eponymous album

YEah

2:12 the transition and the tune that follows is awesome

reminds me of zztop Legs kinda

Pakistani people are the most talented people in the entire world

Brent solos just get better with each album. It's unbelievable.

Big Wreck one of my favorite band. Im from Russia.

Is this the only blast beat in an opeth song?

I just learned how to play the bridge groove and I'm shocked at how easy it is but the choice. The choice in note selection is obviously VOLA. As in, it's a perfect selection. This is the music I've trying to write for years. Back to the drawing boards but my goodness have they nailed it.

Mine: 1) Faith Hope Love (with which I discovered them) 2) King's X 3) Gretchen 4) Dogman Ogre and XV are at the bottom for me.
