Aaaaah, always nice to find a fellow Opeth fan! I would add The Leper Affinity, Deliverance, Bleak and Blackwater Park to that fine list. All great songs as well with Leper Affinity being my fave opeth song of all time (well tied with blackwater park to be honest). Moonlapse Vertigo has some awesome parts, the first 2 growly verses for example. The guitar work during those is nothing short of brilliant. I could discuss Opeth all day, but I don't think this is the correct thread for it

EDIT: Oh, the outro part in "The Funeral Portrait" starting with the lyrics:
"And you are just like them all, stained by the names of fathers
I'm greeting my downward fall, leaving the throes to others"
followed by possibly the most awesome solo I've ever heard,
is also worth listening to!
