5 stars I was introduced to this band by a friend of mine who borrowed me Blackwater Park and at first listen i liked the music but i didnt really enjoy the vocals. But it gradually grew on me and then i got Deliverance and the Lamentations DVD and i was hooked.

After listening thru Deliverance many times i went back to Blackwater Park which is now my favourite Opeth album. The main problem i experienced in the begining with Opeth was that it can become a bit boring sometimes, but after ive started appreciating the music more and more i dont find it boring anymore.

Blackwater Park is an amazing journey. From Heavy to Mellow i enjoy every moment of it. It really sticks out in my CD player which has Camel - Mirage and Grindolog - Lady of the Lake right now playing. But i really love the agressivness and the sudden changes to the mellow part and the beautiful singing of Åkerfeldt. I recomend it to everyone and dont let the growling lyrics fool you its really a nice album.
