I can't think of any VDGG album I'd rate above any Opeth one, to be honest.

I can't stand post-Bluff VdGG. Opeth wins.

Tough choice. Both are tops in my accounting for each group. Went with Opeth...
He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. Living frugally, saving his money, he died early, surrounded by greedy relatives. It was a great lesson to me -- John Barrymore

Both excellent, but VDGG gets my vote.

I haven't heard the Opeth album, so no vote. Though a blind vote for VdGG's best album can hardly be wrong...

VDGG, but Opeth's is quite good too.
