I agree with Marcus, this album has a uniqe music style that suit everyone taste.alot of emotions i feel when i hear it. "The Night And The Silent Water " is one of the epics.
and well done for choosing such sad, calm and beautiful album cover

Real great album, but for example, Orchid and Damnation are WAY MUCH MORE better! My favourites form this one are (momently) To Bid You Farewell, Advent (and Eternal Soul Torture (In Mist She Was Standing's demo version) is so awesome too! ).

LOL, Advent!
"Black Sabbath -Paranoid 1
Death - Symbolic 1; The Sound Of Perseverance 1"
It seems you don't like progressive death metal... and even metal genre at all! 
Cause these albums are fathers of these thing...

I'd have to say i was thoroughly impressed by this album, and to bid you farewell has got to be one of the most amazing tracks i have heard by opeth.
loving it.

Maybe I'll write a review for every Opeth album and give it a 1, just as a reason for every person who likes Opeth to bitch and every person who hates them to praise me.

My favorite album from Opeth too. It has that certain spark about it that all bands seem to loose once they become more known. You know, that feeling of: we're not sure this will sell, but we'll die if we don't do it. Awesome melodies, riffs and vocals throughout the album. It might not be called Ghost Reveries, but it's a haunting masterpiece.

THIS is their best. Those riffs (and the ones from "Orchid" too, even if they're slightly more disjointed) and those haunting melodies could be matched neither by Opeth themselves... Sure, the following albums are way better produced and more popular as well, but I cannot think of a better "opethian" album than "Morningrise".

The production and unispired drumming are my two complaints. Other than that I love this album. As you listen you can definately hear how they were still developing their sound - a few confused moments - but it barely marres the outcome. 'The Night and the Silent Water' is amazing. The acoustic passages made me, a drummer, want to pick up a guitar and learn (which I did, and I now play guitar).
Opeth, if you're reading this, I ask of you: Please do a re-make of 'The Night and the Silent Water'. I would love to hear that song from a more mature Opeth and cleaner production. I don't just mean live (if indeed you've decided you'll play it live) but in a studio setting. Idea! Re-Morningrise! -Like Meshuggah did Re-Nothing. What do you think? Is anybody with me?

^ Totally not with you. No reason to touch this creation at all. Especially not now when Opeth has turned into a boring, quite shallow band with their latest album, "Heritage".

Opeth going back 15 years to re-do a couple songs for you? Ya okay.

Ouch, man. Ouch. Hey, I'm just as sore about Heritage as most people, but it doesn't mean they've gotten boring or shallow. If anything try to appreciate the fact that they didn't over-do it like many bands tend to do after the money and success goes to their heads (*cough* Dream Theater!! - and I love DT). At least MA had the guts to do what was in his heart to do instead of following money or only writting what he thinks people want to hear.
At any rate, I respect your position to not touch it. My point is to do what they couldn't do back then because of the lower tech recording equipment, etc. I'd just like to hear a great song with better sound. Then again some things are better left in their original form.
Thanks for your input. - Matt

Ya, just for me... C'mon, man. No need for the sarcasm. The very point of my post was to see if anyone else wanted the same thing (thus making it into a multiple-person request). If ya don't, cool.

Probably my favourite opeth album of the 90's...so beautiful and epic with every song. The only thing i could say is that 'Nectar' is slightly weak compared to the other four songs, but even then its a brilliant song in its own way.

Tastes differ a lot Nectar is one of my absolute favorite Opeth track and to me the best of this album. Mainly because of the 2.10 moment when Mikael begins to sing in quite a desperate tone, specially in 3.55 with that final scream "...and I fall inside!" with the solo. The ending is pretty boss too.

I think the ending to 'Nectar' is much more effective than the intro-Its a brilliant song, however being directly in the middle of the tracklist, suffers being overshadowed by 'The night and the silent water' and 'Black rose immortal'. Like i say, every song has its own part.

Actually, they did become quite boring and shallow with Heritage. It's obviously an opinion, but the fact remains that musically Heritage is far less complex and more easy-accessible (catchy and simple) in comparison to their previous releases.
Morningrise is a masterpiece though. It's probably the only Opeth album on which every track is utterly brilliant.
