And as for discovering new bands and songs, you can do the same with a little research on KZbin and Google

True Story: This song allowed me to get my breathing under control during a really bad asthma attack in my teens. This song literally saved my life. Thankyou opeth ❤

[@berniekilledrosa3717]

opeth makes the best melancholy music ever. it's so dark yet very sad at the same time, i love how opeth deals wih conflicting emotions like that and imo the contrast between the extremely heavy stuff and the clean acoustic stuff is what makes opeth fucking godly

[@Cluless02]

precisely - Opeth sort of puts my mind at ease about death . . .

[@stanislavzoldak2198]

Well, in a sense, this song is heavier than their heavy stuff.

[@andres-iz4zq]

nailed it!

[@Tobinicus]

Their transitions are god like, to be able to go from heavy to a beautiful clean riff is stunning.

[@discomfort5760]

This and Hours of Wealth makes melancholy seem beautiful, and to me, it can make my own temporary sadness a source of happiness from said beauty - and once I feel happy, the sadness is no more.

[@petercarlson811]

He is absolutely a beast. But in the piano/guitar, or two guitars only - songs, the true, haunting beauty of Opeth really comes through. There is a fragile, melancholic atmosphere in their clean creations that I find beautiful beyond words.

[@telephonebear21]

these should have been recycled for damnation instead of tucking them away on an obscure deluxe disc

[@alanrichardsonb154]

That pretty much the argument about blackwater park: ''i liked blackwater park why don't they stick to that sound?'' Now you are saying they should copy damnation everytime theybdo a new album because they are doing music now with clean vocals? Weak argument. Their music is dark and melodic as it always has been even with the new records, häxprocess from heritage has the more heartbreaking outro, strange brew is the most obscure song they have done that sounds absolutely nothing like they have done before in their discography. The good thing about this band is that it explores genre without having limitations with albums that are completely different from one another.

First of all, this is one of the best Opeth songs that they need to release as a single with Still Day Beneath the Sun. Secondly, for the crazy obsessed fans, wow this is very inspired by Nick Drake. Very cool.

[@Claidheambmor]

Yep, it's like a Swedish, higher-definition take on Nick Drake's legacy

This song saved my life. Got me through an asthma attack that could've ended me...... Thanks Opeth 🖤

[@TheCrimsonBudgie]

I recommend Nick Drake`s "Day is Done" song, which "Patterns in the Ivy II" are actually based on according to Mikaels interviews (he said that Drake was their inspiration and theese two songs have very similiar guitar patterns in the begginig).

[@konnie6444]

TheCrimsonBudgie damn. now that you say it, I see the similarities, but would never have guessed. thanks for letting us know!

Recommending Nick drake is a great advice, Opeth-related or not :)

This is from the Deluxe Edition (2 cd). Second disc has two beautiful songs (this one and Still Day Beneath The Sun). Also has the video for the song 'Harvest'.

Yes, I discovered Still day beneath the sun a few days ago too. They could have put these titles on the classic edition !

Excellent tracks :D i wrote a song that's on the front page of my channel called "The Lonely Harvest" that took some inspiration from the acoustic songs on this album and damnation if you guys wanna check it out. Love this band to death :)
