Opeth - Heir Apparent (Reaction) We checked our seatbelts on this one

[@dmusiclife5727]

Just to clear up any confusion we didn’t include “Coil” in the post title as we wanted it to be a surprise if you will. Since everyone helped us out saying the two tracks must be heard as one. And man......do they. We can’t thank you all enough on that! What an F-N Ride!

[@M4EOzzy]

Mission accomplished. At first I was like, "Awwww, no Coil, that's too bad." and then, "YAY!!!"

Those fast sections after the acoustic riffs are probably my favorite growling performances from Miakel. So guttural and enunciated with brutal lyrics.

For reasons that would be spoilers to you guys, I vote your next Opeth experience to be 'Burden' off the same album. 🤘

[@jonathanweitzmann5638]

Good choice

[@ericjauregui3089]

Definitely an underrated album. Watershed is a masterpiece just like its predecessor. Please check out "Wilderun - The Tyranny of Imagination." As Opeth fans you'll be blown away, guaranteed.

[@Sthephyr12]

I've heard their name before and must've been thinking of someone else, because that song fucking rocks. Buying the album ASAP and get to listen to everything else they've put out.

Opeth is brilliant. They have taken over a lot of other good band to become one of my lost listened to artists. They have so much diversity in soundscapes and composition. Replay value is high for this band. If you likes the first listen, it should get better on return. Nice reaction.

[@loup5044]

Great Reaction for a great piece of music . For me ... Opeth along with Steven Wilson + (Porcupine Tree) & Tool, for Studio Quality & live, are Technically so far ahead of most other bands , these guys are simply way out there in front!!! Awesome Stuff!!!

[@sonsofbiscuits1]

I bought this CD in 2008 I believe, based solely on the look of the cover. I put the CD on in my ex's car and we marvelled at the beauty of the opening track, Coil. Then track 2 came on and terrified her 😂. I'd never heard anything like it at the time though, to go from a gentle sound to a demonic one, with flutes added throughout. It was a life changing, chance experience.

[@levinskevich2180]
