4 stars I'm not a fan of excessive growling, and Mikael probably sings 55-65% of the time on "Ghost Reveries", but still I'm aggreivated. But I sacrifice for the sake of an improving band. "Ghost Reveries" is quite simply, an "Excellent addition to any prog music collection." They have a number of softie-songs, but the 10+ minute songs are all heavy. I think this may be my favorite Opeth album - This and Damnation, but don't worry this sounds nothing like Damnation, and that's why I like the two albums. Very balanced and well done album, I am disappointed (Unrealistic high expectations) but still shocked at how unique this album is, especially for "Metal." Perhaps the next album will be even more prog. I suggest buying this if you like "Blackwater Park" and also if you want to hear an increase in Progressiveness.
