Chief Reacts To "Opeth - Ghost Of Perdition"

[@progperljungman8218]

Finally a reactor who really understands the greatness... of floridabelle 🙂

[@RiffMajestic]

18:50 Yes! Opeth's main songwriter, Mikael Akerfeldt (vocals/guitars) is that good...he's written so many majestic riffs and amazing lyrics it's unfathomable.

[@fredrikrmattsson9065]

Bleak (and the entire blackwater park-album), Baying of the hounds, The moor, Masters apprentices, Deliverence, A fair judgement, Moonlapse Vertigo.... the list is (almost) neverending. Amazing band, enjoy the ride!

[@billyboostah6308]

The Leper Affinity would be nice to see a live reaction of, not to common and one hell of a banger from Opeth:)

[@notchjohnson2540]

19:00 - The transitions in Opeth's songs so easily catch one entirely by surprise, while at the same time being so fluent and seamless to the extend, that only seconds later you might feel like the transition could never have been any other way. Paradoxically it almost makes you feel like an idiot for not seeing it coming :D

[@giacomojamesPunkRockHeadReact]

The reaction is nice. I know what you felt . Too many pauses but i think i don’t mind this time, because of your priceless reaction 🎉

[@missmarlajean]

Opeth!! Yes! Please listen to "When" from My Arms, Your Hearse! I stumbled upon Opeth unintentionally and I have never been so excited about discovering new music!

[@tremor024]

MAYH is incredible! April Ethereal was my initiation to Opeth. What a band!!!

[@recurrencetheorem4264]

You stated this was one of the best songs you have reacted to... you will be happy to know Opeth has a library of songs of this caliber (Harlequin and Masters Apprentice for me). Opeth also has a wide variety of music from death metal to 70's prog (no growl) so you can easily find several albums that you like... or like them all! They are not of this world.

[@recurrencetheorem4264]

DELIVERENCE please... Live or studio is killer!

[@recurrencetheorem4264]

Ok, I just heard you say deliverence next... YOU ARE IN FOR IT! You will never look back at this point.

[@oregonwoodelf]

Man there's an easy dozen or more songs of theirs that are like this. 10 min long epics loaded with transitions from heavy to melodic to folk to 70s prog. You're in for a treat exploring this catalogue. My favorite obsession in music ever🙌🧝🤘

[@julianaserrano1756]

yep... I think I reacted just like that when I first heard this :) sounds about right. And now, many years later, they are still my number one band faaaaaaar on the top and I see no change in that coming my way lol. Deliverance next yeeeeessss I will be here for it, I believe it is gonna be a hit :D Thanks for the reaction.

[@StarStuffGal321]

Ahhhh Opeth! Love this band. And I love the band ex Opeth drummer started, Soen. Enjoyed your sincere reaction! 🫂💕

[@danielfuentes117]

Love it. More Opeth reactions!!!

[@maianation]

This is THE song for me. Love Opeth ❤

[@bretts5021]

'The Roundhouse Tapes' is one of, if not THE best performance... of all time.

[@TheSyncos]

I'm so stoked you loved this song. It really is a journey. After Deliverance, you need "The Drapery Falls" from the Blackwater Park album.

[@annipsy2185]

Yessssss

[@davidbronke5484]

Opeth is one of my favorites! This song is actually new to me though (I haven't really gotten into this album like I have with Blackwater Park, Damnation, and Sorceress) but I'm loving it so far - so much movement in it! Edit: hell yes, Deliverance next! Maybe Harvest or The Drapery Falls after that? 🙏

[@ShervinTheDeath]

Opeth .... For all seasons ! It's phenomenal and unique. Every part with every section of any riff and melody... It's just untouchable 💯 your reactions to Opeth is so damn good and pure dude :-) keep up the good work 🤘👏

[@markrichardson8378]

What an epic song,live is even better, maybe this is the start of an opeth run of songs. Try moon above sun below next,a totally different sound,but still amazing. All eras are worth a listen.

[@recurrencetheorem4264]

MASTERS APPRENTICE ... let's go... OPETH!

[@landenx]

Reverie/ Harlequin Forest is another banger on this album. Deliverance is also a really fun listen from them 🔥

[@suzannemartin776]

This is one of my favourite Opeth songs. So excited for you that you have so much great material of theirs to listen to. I'm here for it. Your reactions are really fun.

[@SevenAsses]

Nobody would be watching this video unless they like a slow burn. So don't be concerned with people trying to rush. This is one of those songs you might want to take your time to appreciate. I could recommend Coil+Heirapparent.

[@kylec1411]

Opeth so good. heard them when i was like 15. 20 years later still love them. Blackwater park gotta be the best album to me. Opeth so complex and abstract got grooves on grooves

[@Zitronenparty]

Glad you seem to like it 😄Can't wait for Deliverance and to follow you on your Opeth journey :)

[@mcgreggor5543]

You are doing gods work spreading the psalms of Opeth 🤘

[@darkphoenix2]

Music is so fascinating in that it can sound great to us for such inexplicable reasons

[@j.t.3798]

F ing masterpiece. You should've seen this live! Great reaction nonetheless

[@HanOnkel]

Duran Duran! 😂 Yeah mate! It's such a joy waching people like yourself discovering Opeth for the first time. Enjoy the rest of the catalogue!

[@markblaauw4961]

The best ever written metal opera. I say it once again. Top notch reaction. Welcome to the rabbithole of this most stunning band. I think you might like: The Moor; Moonlapse Vertigo; The Lotus Eater; Hessian Peel; The Drapery Falls and a lot more. This band is a genre on its own. Subscribed.

[@mcgreggor5543]

Thanks for great reactions. I really envy you, having all that great Opeth music to discover. If you only enjoy heavy music you have some 50 ish epic songs to look forward to. If you enjoy all types of music then you can pick any song from them. I can honestly say that they do not have more than maybe a handful songs I skip over most of the time and I favoriter different albums and songs almost day by day. Welcome Dorothy!

[@streganona8185]

Great reaction! Almost every Opeth song is an Opus and each one takes the listener on a massive journey. Also each album is different. On a side note, I highly recommend learning to The Roundhouse Tapes - its excellent, as are all their shows. Immense gratitude for the walk down Memory Lane. 💜🌎💜

[@MrMandelll]

Gooooood reaction! But pls do yourself a favour, get a pair on nice headsets :) And yes, they are "technical as shit" ;) Welcome to the journey of Opeth ;) This is not Tool! Stuck on them since 15 years and never getting tired of it.

[@rikdavis6776]

Wonderful reaction, and personally I feel the studio is the superior listen. Real acoustic guitars and studio quality vocals and backing vocals. I fell down the Opeth rabbit hole 🕳️ about 4 years ago now and they have been scratching bands off my top 10 ever since.. 💀❤️

[@JosephRenaldo]

Yo my man. Brilliant reaction. Entertaining AF and exactly the appropriate level of astonishment 👏

[@annipsy2185]

I loved the delayed jumpscare face in the beginning 😂

[@Drinckx2]

Worth watching the live performance of this at Red Rocks, They are such a killer band.

[@immune85]

I so often think about how those guys probably sat in that studio, just... whelmed. Saying something like "Yeah. Let's leave that bit in, that's quite alright, actually".

[@CeciA333]

I like this🙌💜

[@alpha_waves]

If you like this then you gotta react to deliverance next my man

[@breckbennett822]

Window pain. Dude check it out

[@keytothestorms]

Try with "Lotus Eater" next 😉

[@alyu9056]

Listen to "Hessian Peel". It will change your life. "Ghost of Perdition" is probably their best song but "Hessian Peel" is up there. They have such a great library. The entire Pale Communion album is excellent.

[@sentpain8354]

You would also LOVE bleak by opeth. Amazing song. The thing about opeth is that everyone has a different "favorite opeth song" and they are all fucking right.

[@dprphoto]

Great reaction! I noticed that you have done any reactions to Visions of Atlantis, yet? It's a must!

[@jirikrajnak9047]

gg for effortlessly following the rhythm

[@boltron7674]

Opeth is fantastic and you ‘re doing great reactions. I’d like to see your thoughts on King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Their song, Dragon, is a lot of fun. Do it!!

[@ivanglodenis2018]

The baying of the hounds Is another másterpiece. Hessian peel to

[@grefz0r]

Well.. If there is 1 pearl to find in Sweden, this is it!

[@tubelious]

With Opeth, the studio versions are A LOT better, unless you opt for the old DVDs, like Lamentations. Mikael doesn't do the proper growls anymore. And while you are checking the old Opeth live dvd's, check out also Bloodbath Live "The Wacken Carnage".

[@effectosis742]

Hessian Peel is a journey though...

[@darrenbooker8144]

Definitely do the roundhouse version live, Mikaels brutal vocals are far better then red rocks

[@bryanmack5410]

Is this your first Opeth song? Just follow Floridabelle. She will guide you.

[@floridabelle]

Thanksd Bryan. He has done Harlequin Forest so far. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmrddXakm5qEmZo

[@TheArey827]

un jumpscare XD

[@googlesucks6223]

Should watch the live version at Red Rocks its way better which shows that they are unbelievably talented.

[@breckbennett822]

Um I'm glad this guy found a great band. But really damnation is the best album by far. Just saying love the reaction

[@scrubsscrubs694]

I disagree completely. Red rocks isnt that great, his growls suck. Roundhouse tapes sounds way better. When he is younger and his growls are peak

[@ragunathtikiri480]

They don't suck, there's just no fry in them. He's fully relaxed. They sound demonic in their own special way
