You misunderstand @slobberchops, the noise IS the good stuff, the soft prog stuff is the icing on the cake 😉

That was my approach when I first started listening (Bleak - for obvious reasons - the SW connection). It took some time to get into me and it's the same for every Opeth track I try to crack. I find I have to do this with each one before the flavour comes out!

Yeah, it's like a lot of these bands, you have to dig in to find the gems
