I like Watchtowers ED quite a bit but it's got to be Still Life for me.
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

leaning hard towards Opeth..  IIRC correctly.. this Watchtower album really didn't float my boat when I checked it out in the first round.  Likely if the poll is close I'll give it another listen.

doing a refresher to Watchtower right now.. better.. much better than I remember. Glad I hung on to the vote. Vote is in play even as much as I like Opeth.. it isn't Ghost Reveries (I know Andy .. I know LOL) so the vote is open to be taken.

Really can't vote for either of those, they're both pretty awful, I'll leave it to people who like this stuff.

Oh dear , I fear this will not be much fun for old fuddy duddy here. Anywho I am not interupting a full listening of Spirit of Eden so the Metal lads are going to have to wait.

Have to give it to Orpeth cos I managed to hold out for 3:43 whereas Watchtower had me grasping for the pause button after a meagre 1:11. To each his own.

Best response so far Clap, that's pretty much how it worked for me except I just gave up.

Opeth, Still Life.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.
