Lethe

Look, I’m telling you that if I read it written by someone else, I would also say that I don’t like the "way it’s written." That’s why I apologize, because a review should be as objective as possible. In my previous reviews, I tried, but this time not at all.

@Fidia: I expected comments like yours, entirely justified and understandable. But precisely because I expected them, I reiterated several times in the review phrases like "I'm not joking," "I'm not exaggerating," and stuff like that. I also find overly enthusiastic reviews annoying, but I had to write this one like that; you’ll notice it's my first duplicate review, and if I chose an album that has already been reviewed, it’s precisely for this reason (besides the fact that the other one currently on the site seems more about Pink Floyd than about Opeth). In fact, the style is different as well: I had never done a complete track-by-track in the true sense of the word, and even the overall presentation might come across as unpleasant or pretentious. However, I apologize in advance to everyone who reads the review; it was something I needed to write. The emotions described are all ones I've experienced (perhaps not in such a pseudo-poetic way), the album has always left me taken aback. And indeed, I wouldn't consider it a true review, but rather a sharing of emotions with those (I hope many) who felt them while listening. I apologize again...

I ask the editors for the favor of adding 5 stars to the rating, if possible!

Alright, to avoid discrimination (:D) ...John...

Strange Days is a dream.

I also can't give a rating to the album. However, in addition to Nightfall, I also have Tales of Creation, which honestly I'm not crazy about...

"psychedelia with a distinctly pinkfloydian stamp"??? black metal??? "harmonic lines never [...] excessively ceLebral"??? excuse me, for such a high amount of nonsense, my vote can only be the following:

Well, to be honest, all these criticisms seem to me unfounded or at least exaggerated. I quote tepes, it’s a good band, even if commercial (but where is it written that commercial can't also be beautiful?). The review indeed presents inaccuracies, perhaps too many. Ah, Lewis's voice is really very expressive; I like it, maybe the strong point of the group considering that the technique is not high at all…

@Bisius: I don't know... I hope so, more than anything!
