5 stars What else is there to say that hasn't already been said by the people above me? The lowest rating as of my review is a 4! That is astonishing, I would think. "Blackwater Park" by Opeth is an absolute work of art and is my second favorite Opeth album along with the second release "Morningrise". There a 4 HUGE tracks quality wise on this album. Those four being the title track, "The Drapery Falls", "Bleak", and "The Leper Affinity". All four of those songs are nearly perfect. "Patterns in the Ivy" is in the absolute perfect spot on this album. It cools you off after the heavy ground-breaking song "The Funeral Portrait" and warms you up for the MONSTER title track. "Harvest" is a great song aswell, and Akerfeldt really shows off his clean vocals well in that song. "Dirge for November" has some beautiful work to be found everywhere. In the vocals, the guitars, etc.
