| The fifth revelation by Opeth. Their 'Blackwater Park' reveals them as a powerhouse of talent and is the first to put them clearly into the mainstream consciousness (without any compromise on their part). A very rare album indeed, and it can even be seen as a career high point; a mesmerizing combination of power and delicateness, light and shade, an original sonic tapestry that expands the boundaries of metal. Produced by Steve Willson (Porcupine Tree), these eight monuments will forever stand as some of the best Opeth material in their discography. |
