I know there are several Opeth fans here.

And it seems a ton of metalheads.

So lots of you will be familar with this album.

But I know that at least 1 person here isn't. And if they find a new "must have" out of this thread it was worth the time.

Opeth's "Damnation" album... It's one of my top 5 desert island cds. Its amazing.

And its not heavy. At all. Or is it? Sonically its not. But its VERY full of emotion. So perhaps its wicked heavy after all....

You be the judge.

"Windowpane"



"Death Whispered A Lullaby"


"Hope Leaves"


"Closure"

I just checked out your Opeth clean/lead lesson yesterday.

Awesome. I listened to them today on the way to work becasue of that.

I've always loved Opeth, and these songs in particular. So filled with emotions and melody.

Damnation is my favourite Opeth's album. It's beautiful music. Some parts reminds me to Fates Warning music (the most progressive albums not the first metal ones).

Damnation is an awesome album.

Jer you won't be disappointed when you get to see them live.
