Top Ten Most Underrated Opeth Songs

The Top Ten
1 Hessian Peel

Honestly this is probably their best song.

2 Serenity Painted Death

Awesome riffs and solo, certainly the most underrated Opeth song, at least in Still Life album.

3 Karma

Great song, one of the best from album

4 Credence
5 White Cluster
6 Death Whispered a Lullaby

This song possesses not only excellent guitar work and drums synchronisation but also some thought-provoking and in-depth lyrics. Living under the shadow of Windowpane and In My Time of Need, it has received little to no recognition. Only Opeth's ardent fans may have appreciated this musical masterpiece.

7 The Funeral Portrait
8 Porcelain Heart
9 Eternal Rains Will Come
10 A Fair Judgement

It stuns me to witness that this song is underrated even more on the underrated list itself. I can understand for people not having the time enough to listen to the entire album with an open mind, or with thorough interest. I've recommended this song infinite times to the song reactors and people who are just trying to get into this band, but instead they end up listening to some of the heaviest things in the world, and relentlessly complain about the growls and fast nature of the music. Whenever you are on the verge of listening to any genre of music (especially extreme metal) radically different from your comfort zone, do the research about the type of music and it's history. I know it might sound a bit weird for some, but doing the research actually helps (at least it did for me) in wiring your brain and mentally prepares you for what to come.

Coming to the point, "A Fair Judgement" is the go-to song in my opinion even if you aren't a metalhead, it encompasses at least ...more

The Contenders
11 Nectar
12 Hex Omega

Should be in the top ten list of best opeth song... its not just a song... it's a book... a movie... a dream... I can't describe it

13 The Night and the Silent Water

Probably their best song. At least in my opinion. Everyone talks about the riffs on Blackwater Park, and while Morningrise may not have been recognized as a masterpiece, this song holds the most hauntingly beautiful guitar parts I have ever heard.

14 Folklore
15 Dirge for November

Dirge for November is the epitome of the word "underrated." It's one of my favourite songs from Blackwater Park.

16 By the Pain I See In Others

I agree. This song is very dark and the reversed part still haunts me.

I actually skip the reversed part and put in a new cd. this song is like a carnival of hell or something. BLACKWATER PARK PART II

My favorite track from Deliverance by far.

17 Voice of Treason
18 Beneath the Mire
19 Burden
20 Face of Melinda
21 Under the Weeping Moon
22 Patterns in the Ivy
23 Master's Apprentices
24 Cusp of Eternity
25 When

Probably my second favourite opeth song ever, behind Blackwater Park. Criminally under-rated amongst loath fans I think. Truly superb!
