LYRICS
Into the trees
Past meadow grounds
And further away from my home
Baying behind me
I hear the hounds
Flock's chasing to find me alone
A trail of sickness
Leading to me
If I am haunted
Then you will see
Searching the darkness
And emptiness
I'm hiding away from the sun
Will never rest
Will never be at ease
All my matter's expired so I run
There falls another
Vapor hands released the blade
Insane regrets at the drop
Instruments of death before me
Lose all to save a little
At your peril it's justified
And dismiss your demons
As death becomes a jest
You are the laughing stock
Of the absinthe minded
Confessions stuck in your mouth
And long gone fevers reappear
Nocturnally helpless
And weak in the light
Depending on a prayer
Pacing deserted roads to find
A seed of hope
They are the trees
Rotten pulp inside and never well
Roots sucking, thieving from my source
Tired boughs reaching for the light
It is all false pretension
Harlequin forest
Awaiting redemption for a lifetime
As they die alone
With no one by their side
Are they forgiven?
Stark determination
Poisoning the soul
Unfettered beast inside
Claiming sovereign control
And now the woods are burning
Tearing life crops asunder
Useless blackened remains
Still pyre smoldering - เพลง
This is my go-to song for introducing Opeth to a new listener.
Wow, how cool of you
God was never planning to create humans but on a vision of the future he heard the ending riff of this song and had no choice
reddit
funny, i never thought of God as a head banger but if it,s written so shall it be. i,m good with that at least he,s on our side. lol
In the beggining there was nothing, but on a very first day, God created Opeth

Good.
Lol! it is that good
Have Opeth ever had a better recorded sound? The engineering and production values on this album, and this song especially, are as good as anything I can think of. Everything sounds exactly as it should, every contribution from each instrument perfectly placed in the recorded sound. And considered from beginning to end, this album has their best songs.
+laterceravida Agreed! The sound production from this album is absolutely stunning! so crisp, clear, and proper!
+laterceravida I hope the remastered versions of deliverance and damnation are this crisp. I personally never had a problem with the album quality like a lot of people do but compared to Ghost Reveries they are quite sub par.
+laterceravida i agree 100%
+Drake Smith Their Las two albuns, Heritage and Pale Comunion are very prog. Guess that's what you'll like if you ended up here because of a DT song. Opeth its an amazing band, certainly one of the best bands i've ever heard. I would be lying if i try to tell my favorite album.
+Drake Smith everything!
As a guitarist, I'm always surprised by Opeth's guitar parts, they are intriguing and fresh and always interesting.
You look like a balder Jonathan Davis from a distance

Who says he aint one of forest groomps the truest and his truest contribution against music
@@oscillations5234 XDD
this is more than music
Heres why no more growling from Mike. Akerfeldt decided to address the drama when asked if he would ever growl again on an Opeth record:
“I can’t say, really, I’ve never turned my back on anything and I’m not
going to start now. It’s not like I don’t like that style of vocal
delivery anymore. But I just can’t develop any more as a singer if I
keep on screaming. In fact, I think I got worse at that as the years
went by. But if the future songs require those vocals, then that’s what
I’ll deliver. It seems like a long shot at this stage.”
Sad...
honestly i think damnation is their best album and that has really good singing on it. however akerfeldt is one of only a very select few singers who i think pulls off growls and screams incredibly well. but i never let that overshadow his very beautiful singing voice.
I demand, that every second Opeth song has at least 1 minute growl part in it!!!!!!!!!!!!
And every 4 songs has to be one really weird heavy song! This song here is the perfect example how it should be done! :) One of their best works imho, even if I'd change my mind every time I listened to Watershed about 8 times :D
@@maranathashalom9402 i like their newer stuff but i agree that around two songs from their next album should have some influence from their older songs. they dont even need growls. they could just be like something from damnation idk. also i love their song The Garroter from their newest album. that song has a lot of potential to evolve into a new style for the band
He still growls in live shows. Think they only did 2 songs off of the new album & the rest were older works. He still uses the 'in ear monitors' so it's the crappy growling unfortunately instead of the type he did at the Royal Albert Hall show. Was still a great show.
5:59-7:18
...and after all these years I still can easily say this is one of the best music pieces I've heard in my entire life.
***** I think every Opeth's record is good (at least), even Watershed has it's brilliants, so does Heritage and Pale Communion. I don't even mentioned Orchid and Morningrise which is Opeth's most sincere, dark and beautiful records IMO.
Leonid Isachenko Yup
dark knight You idiot. Just because you don't like something, it doesn't mean no one else can. Although you may think it a fact that they've 'gone down the drain', it's just your opinion. It's insulting to say that certain people are idiots and accept bands that get terrible. Can they not like something that you don't? Is this concept so difficult to grasp?
dark knight were you in it for the screaming? All of their albums are incredible... Learn to listen for musical composition and actual talent... they all are amazing.
Ruben1459 Don't respond to morons like that. Your reaction makes them feel their ignorance has legitimacy when we all know they know nothing of music.
Here for my daily dose of the outro
I always end up listening to the whole song though :)
this outro and/or Deliverance's Outro....
Yes
Don't forget Advent, and A Fair Judgement.
Here for my daily dose of the entire song! :)
They are......the trees.
My wife and I just went to the redwoods and Sequoias in California, this was the theme song we played through the trip.
"Into the trees
Past meadow grounds
And further away from my home"
That acoustic section under that part is so amazing.
Shreddykrueger yea mikael brings out a side of acoustic guitar that no one else can
@@MustObeyTheRules not only that, all the ambience, you feel like you inside a hauting dark place
- WHAT? COME AGAIN, WHAT IS??
The mid-section is a progressive rock fan's heaven. It's such a perfect collaboration of guitars and vocals.
It’s so freaking good man
Any recomendations on other songs with the same mood?
That part is like a mix of led zeppelins no quarter and pink floyds dogs
I read "such a perfect collaboration of guitars and socks". Don't know how that happened either 🤣
This music is out of this world, the vocals are aaaaaabsurd! I DIE on 7:19, the way he sings "harlequin fo-o-o-o-o-orest" is enchanting 😍😍
Favorite part of this song. So haunting
This part still gives me goosebumps!
And then the scream at 8:13…… Mike is truly on another level
That haunting growl passing swiftly through the forest at 2:32, Majestic!
Funny finding you here Riff ;)
I am often found where the most majestic of riffs can be heard. ;)
Or the moor for that matter
Details make the good great...
You’ve just given me an amazing image for that part of the song.
I cherish the Ghost Reveries album its one of those ones where you cant skip a single track. Just sheer fckin awesomeness from start to finish. Same goes for the Blackwater Park album.
Another album that's like that is The Gathering by Testament. If you've not listened to it you should try it out, Laurence D!
And My Arms Your Hearse
@@friidryce1150 my arms, your hearse is so goddamn metal it makes me want to weep. opeth put out MANY a good album and this MASTERPIECE.
And every other conceptual album out there, actually
Also Watershed and In Cauda Venenum
Probably the best wedding song i've ever heard
Wedding song? 5:59 doesn't sound like something that fits a wedding!
Outro lyrics:
tu tu pa tutu tu prpapapaa tu tu patu tu prpapatu tu
tuuuu tu patu tu pa tu papa tu tu papa tu rarararara
KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK YES
¡Qué chingue a su madre el america!
thank you, now I can sing along with the music
isnt that deliverance?
@@fotismonocheir1446no, this is it - listen this track from 9:59
Is this a joke TH-cam? ads in the middle of a song
Ah ah ah ah . LOL. Yes , it's a completely SHiT. A song in parts
It's the channel that decides whether to add midrolls or not.
it' s not a joke, it' s a crime !!!
@@bums009 Not always true. When people upload videos with copyrighted music, the copyright owner can "claim" the video and put ads as they please (probably at random).
Since this is Opeth's official TH-cam channel however, I would assume they DO have control over the ads. I think the 5 minute ad is added as a default thing though (and not something they did manually), and I agree that they should remove it. ads have absolutley no place in the middle of a song.
Greed. Crooks
The instrumentals starting @ 6:00 is one of the most audibly pleasing things I have ever heard.
Thats the eardrumshot XD
This whole album just sends me to another world everytime i listen to it, its just beautiful.
I feel this so hard
Me too, theres just something to it that keeps all the songs coherent or something
I dont even know what im saying I fucking love opeth
This album was intented to be conceptual excepting Isolation Years.
It's like walking at night and finding yourself in a forest.
The 1st Opeth album I bought. I forget what year I discoveredu them, probably 2005 or 06. Then I got Watershed, then Blackwater Park. To me, they are the Pink Floyd of metal. I am not comparing them to Pink Floyd, but I am sure Opeth would be flattered
9:31 one of the best riffs i've heard
Favorite Opeth song by a mile, and that's saying something. This song is just unbelievable. It is perfect. "The trees/harlequin forest" part is probably the most hauntingly, longingly, tragically beautiful thing I've ever heard. It paints such a detailed visual picture being deep inside a dark forest to walk alone amongst the trees forever.
is reverie actually in this or is it at the end of atonement?
Matthew Clark It's at the end of Atonement. As far as digital
releases go
AmazonskiZderonja ok thanks
Someone hasnt listened to Moonlapse Vertigo...
Jack Sawyer for some reason i never remember how that goes. ive heard still life countless times but it doesnt stick with me like godhead of serenity
One of my favorite songs of all time. They are the trees.
A trail of sickness
Leading to me
If I am haunted
Then you will see
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhh
He was singing this as I scrolled by your comment
Perfect time
SEAAAAAARCHING THE DARKNESSSSSS
AND THE EMPTINESSSSSSSS
This is THE quintessential Opeth album. Its really quite the masterpiece. Every track is absolutely mesmerizing.
Brilliant all the way through.. no doubt about that!
I agree. From a composition standpoint it is definitely their best. You never know what you’re going to hear next but you know it’s going to fucking great.
STILL LIFE FOR ME BUT EVERY ALBUM IS PERFECT IN ITS OWN RIGHT
This song is just incredible. It has about 9 stunning riffs that some bands would be lucky to get just one in an entire album. Ridiculous talent. I absolutely love this song.
This album really is the sweetspot that Opeth achieved. The atmosphere mixes Still Life, Blackwater Park, and a mixture of Deliverence/Damnation all into a quantified experience. It's really hard for me to decide between those albums which ones are my favorite and then here is Ghost Reveries. This album really strikes a chord, perhaps I am having an epiphany that this is truly my favorite. I'm not sure but it really brings me back.
Γεια σου κομήτη
Yeah that's a good statement, it's really their sweetspot. Even though claiming it's their best is debatable, it's the best mixture among all the styles they've explored.
It is okay to love all of them equally!
this is my washing the dishes song, it makes me feel cool while doing it
Trem6lo HA! I thought I was the only one!
Nope!
Dillinger Escape Plan, when you wanna wash em quick!!!!
omg SAME😂😂😂👌🤘🤘
Ghost of Perdition is my dishes song... Or it was. Had to stop listening to it while cleaning because I kept breaking plates while I was headbanging
They are
The trees
Rotten pulp inside
Never well
Roots are sucking
Thieving from thy source
Tired boughs
Reaching for the light
2:30 the low growl during the transition from soaring "chorus" back to a heavy section is one of the sickest Opeth moments for me. Absolute masterpiece.
There's no words to describe such excellence. Martin Lopez was a key composing member. His drumming is exceptional; brutal, complex and speedy yet emotional and heartbreaking.
cant believe im falling down an opeth hole AGAIN
One of the best compositions in metal history.
Started listening to Opeth way back in high school, around 2011~2012, for literally a decade. I started with their 'metal' era with, beginning with "Ghost Reveries", which made me go down a rabbit hole and listen to everything they'd released. In this decade of constantly following up with their sound, they were there during my ups and downs, helping in so many aspects of my life, metal-wise and mental wise.
I had to deal with personal issues, I felt lonely a bunch of times in those years, and even struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts. Opeth's music to me was an escape from reality, I could always go back and find comfort, I felt connected with so many of Mikael's lyrics, it made me rethink my life decisions and start to improve.
Thankfully I've found a way to deal with my inner problems and traced a well tough path for my life. I managed to overcome my depression, which I never felt ever again so far, managed to get my bachelor's degree, and started to take care of my body by eating healthy, exercise and and stopping using drugs. And all and all never abandoned listening to their music. It helped me a lot. I mean it.
Got me an Opeth tattoo on my arm, I dunno, I am grateful for knowing this band, thankful for all the good times I had with them, and plus, ITS FUCKING AWESOME
In ten years, I have not been able to attend an Opeth concert, because they rarely played in my hometown, Sao Paulo, Brazil. And this was on my bucket list, for years I've been wanting to see them live for the first time.
But the universe granted me my wish, next year, on February 8th, 2023, Opeth will play a gig in Sao Paulo and guess what, I got the tickets!!!! I am so happy that I will watch my favorite band for the very first time!!!! I feel so good
Thank you, Opeth
The best metal drummer I ever played with was Brazilian. Your nation and culture seems to have a lot of respect for metal, and especially metal drums. Enjoy the show my bro.
Peace.
How was it bro
That goddamn outro. Beatiful!
+Kusakki Their transitions are absolutely ridiculous, so amazing
Agreed
God damn right!
The outro is Deliverance
@@jordiaguilarcarreno5464 ?
The drumming in this song is incredible 👌
It is very good. For sure.
air drumming
as we speak
Yeah, I love how the drumming just drives the music in the first half of the song
Im fucking addicted to this song. This is perfection! Every single second is absolutely beautiful. Thank you Opeth
I listen to just about every type of music there is. And I genuinely think Opeth has some of the most well composed and written songs to ever be made. Songs like Harlequin Forest and Hessian Peel are just mind-blowing in their richness, and the way the music paints such wast pictures to let you sink into your own mind and get lost in. Truly one of the best bands on earth
NAILED IT!! OPETH ARE THE BEST BAND TO EVER GRACE THIS EARTH!!
One of my favorite Opeth songs to drum to. It goes through so many moods, and has some of Lopez’s finest drum work.
The bell/fill build up part at 8:13
The hihat and splash accent part at 3:30
Then the straight groove at 5:05
Then the bad ass stuttering outro at 10:00.
I used to have a guitar player friend who could play this song so damn good. Though he never wanted to play Opeth because he had to tune his guitar all weird.
But damn this record is a classic. Genre defining for modern prog metal.
Knowing Opeth and knowing this song is a blessing. Sad for those lives who never experienced this and passed away.
Autumn starts at 4:39
They can't do this kind of stuff again because they already did it. Here lies the conundrum of progressive music.
Haha. Well said.
Opeth has progressed past the style of modern metal yet sounds like nothing from the past either.
+Meshuggapeth sorry mate ,it .s always been death progressive metal
Their style was progressive death metal, and now it's progressive metal or just progressive rock. The shift away from the kind of metal they were known for was on Heritage, when they decided they wanted to play more organic, traditional sounding, progressive metal.
+Meshuggapeth Well I seen a interview with Mikael on the subject of his older style of music. He mentioned something along the lines of he's tired of playing the super distorted growling music.
But in the end doesn't really matter what they put out, it's going to be brilliant in whatever style they choose. Heritage was amazing in it's own category.
The outro of this song is so heavy and hypnotic and unpredictable, so utterly perfect.
The more i hear Opeth more became hard to decide what's their best album...Now i think is ALL OF THEM.
Opeth is everything that´s good in this planet
Was.
Opeth is one of the greatest bands ever. I love their style of music and sound. they rock even with an acoustic guitar. they r a true metal band.
8:12 RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWR
so kawaii
>:3
lmao I got here AS IT HAPPENED!!! 💪💪
And that means i love you in dinosaur...
rawr ecks dee
Everytime the part during 4:09 plays i just cannot not think about Silent Hill. It actually sounds like something Akira Yamaoka would compose and think it would fit perfectly with the series itself.
That is true ma man
The best metal song of all time.
Part from 07:15 brings shivers to my spine! Masterpiece!
Dechsi87 absolutely
Is your body aching all the time?
Is it just me that always trys to tap in time with the ending riff just because its got the weirdest rhythm ever? feel so proud when I manage it
A friend introduced me to Opeth not long ago...this is by far my favorite song. It's just absolute perfection.
What a good friend. My friends are all stupid and don’t listen to new music.
Oh man that ending. Oh man.
INSTRUMENTS OF DEATH BEFORE ME!!!!!! UGGHH!! I can't decide whether that is my favorite of Mikael's "grunts". The one at the beginning of Blackwater Park is also incredible. There's some good ones though. I never miss an opportunity to partake in said grunts. They're cathartic.
Serenity painted death is the one!
leperrrrs coil neath the treeeeeeees
@@thetitaknight209 oh man. That fucking riff after 1:28 and the accompanying vocals are fucking fantastic. 110% metal.
this song fires on every cylinder - magic, ethereal - a culmination of my own metal journey through a lifetime of listening to rock and metal.
Listened in full today. This song to me is like anger/hope/despair all thrown into one song. Total rollercoaster ride.
Just one word left to say: López.
:(
alex ladrón AXE
alex ladrón theyre both awesome but mike is the mastermind behind their sound IN THE BAND since he said he writes templates to what he wants everything to sound like
Daniel Miranda yeah, awesome musicians... but I just wanted to highlight López's one of a kind touch.
Just two words left to say: Peter Lindgren
That outro is amazing
That acoustic steel guitar part at around 4:00 is just so good
Sounds like a 12 string than an acoustic o.o
This is simply the best metal song ever written. I cannot believe it took 44 years for me to hear it; It satisfies every metal emotion I have. Opeth must be God's house band....I have to now re evaluate the other bands in my music collection as I have clearly been wasting my time. What the hell is wrong with the 35 assholes that voted thumbs down on this?
dws2112 are 75 now, UNBELIEVABLE
couldn't agree more. this song is beyond perfect.
Unless you come from the future it has only taken you as much as 12 years
It's all the other artists realizing they can never compete with this level of greatness
Bo Jangles I feel that
Need more chops
This is something to aspire to. Once someone proves something possible, someone will surpass them shortly. Beautiful part of human nature. Just a shame that so few dare to push themselves
I was warned about the ad, but I still am mad about it.
It was amazing seeing Opeth coming up on the metal scene from 2004-2010 I saw almost every tour cycle especially this one was very special. Marquee Theater AZ when shows used to cost $20-30.
I am not a very emotional man, but somehow most of the songs on this album brought me to tears. That's how you know the songs appeal to you! Thanks opeth!
This is my favourite song of all time
Masterpiece
this song is perfect
Listening to Opeth, Tool, Katatonia, Steven Wilson, Karnivool in 2018, Delhi, India.
10:00 The use of musical Pauses from this point on is truly astonishing. The way Opeth performed this part demonstrates their musical genius in terms of creativity/melody coupled with a complete mastery over instrument techniques. Who am I kidding? most of their works prove this!
Ghost Reveries is my favorite Opeth album
this and watershed
bring me into the Fall
best time of the year
to drink coffee and listen to the best band ever

I am just discovering these guys. What an awesome band!
Welcome to the family sir
Welcome to the family. Get ready to have your mind blown repeatedly
First time ever listening to this band or hearing it, someone suggested this song to me as a first time listener and I gotta say 10/10 hauntingly beautiful vocals and instrumentals.
Welcome to Opeth!
I still wish I could hear this song for the first time again...
The rabbit hole is deep...
Lopez is a bloody monster
Opeth have the death metal element. Opeth have the ballad element. This is probably the most accessible and contains an element of all styles. Just a little bit of growling vocals, so shouldn't put off a casual listener. The long, ballad section is simply sublime. Outstanding.
The acoustic sections on this song are on another level
It's January 27th, 2023 and I just heard this on Sirius radio yesterday and totally got into it. Heard OF Opeth but not much from them. I really got into it, love all the breaks and right turns. Intricate guitar parts keep the ears glued to it. Really cool song to get a real first impression. Very 70's/ Zeppelin-isque in parts. The slow acoustic breakdown is awesome.
Listen to all of Ghost Reveries. You're welcome. Its addictive just fyi
Lots of sweet memories surround by this song...
This song changed my life in music.
I remember my brother showing me this when it first came out, I was 10 at the time. Now a decade later it's still in my top 5 albums probably of all time...aaaah I love it
Your brother is awesome
It never gets old. Opeth fan for 25 years almost. Seen them live a lot. My favorite band off all time. This album brings me back to college.
That ending ... I love this type of endings, it's almost a genre in itself, but they are so rare ... Gojira's Remembrance comes to mind ... anyone knows any other songs with this type of ending?
Deliverance!
Hex Omega
an ending with palm mutes and weird rhythm? there are whole songs that go like that i guess haha
Cloud Strife
List? I'd like to see what kind of songs you're thinking of.
Snelle Fjöll
try listening to more rhythm orientated metal music if you like this kind of riffing.
a nice start could be meshuggah or bands like that (maybe listen to their song ''I'').
and if you like that kind of stuff there is actually the whole ''djent'' movement that revolves more or less around the meshuggah sound, with bands such as periphery, animals as leaders, etc.
one artist i personally would recommend is david maxim micic.
you definately find alot of complex rhythm stuff in his music too, but it is very different from gojira or bands like that.
i hope i could help you
I honestly can't believe how amazing this intro is
This one of my favourites... I went crazy with this album... a truly artistic wholesomeness to say the least. I hope all Opethean kin are doing well!
I live for 7:18 to 8:12
Nya Rvn this whole song is a masterpiece. My only gripe is it ends.
I love Mikael's cleans on GR. His best overall vocal performance imo
@@tomcorlissjr3815 Yes. Me too. This song is So perfect.
@@88omair In Cauda Venenum surpassed it.
This is brilliant, so happy my brother introduced me to Opeth.
W brother
Let's be honest, this album is where Opeth peaked.
yeah, they'll never do stuff like this again
Personally I think it was ORCHID
@@leilahdunn5133 so you think that nothing was better than orchid?
@@sh1nighami I did not say that NOTHING is BETTER. I am of the OPINE that ORCHID is possibly the best album that Opeth has produced, but that's not to say that I haven't binged on other albums for months at a time, and NOT to say that Ghost Reveries or Blackwater Park are NOT EQUALLY AS SMASHING.
I suppose I should say that in the spirit of metal, that the Orchid album is possibly the HEAVIEST album that Opeth has produced.
@@sh1nighami yah, I mean, I like SO MUCH of their stuff, but I always end up coming back around to Orchid, indeed.
A timeless masterpiece with nearly no equal.
Mikael's best vocal works
Sick, just fuckin' sick. And because of utterly ridiculous stigmas put on this genre of music, so many people will never get the pleasure of hearing such phenomenal compositions.
2:30 - 3:30 is so inexpressibly sick and awesome! Melts my face every time.
This song is one of Opeth's crowning achievements.
If I am to describe Opeth, it would go like this: their lyrics, harmonies, instrumental parts and ideas behind their music are in one word, Genius and Profound.
After listening to Opeth you can compare how much shit is written nowadays by others and have a good laugh thereof.
4 years listening tot his song and I can say I'll never get tired of it
Best experience of the last week: eating a big juicy homemade burger to this song.
+Ivan Vashchenko I always thought of this song like more of a steak song myself xD
+Ivan Vashchenko I took a very good shit to this song.
I had a really good fap time to this song
Had myself a good sit-down, and listening to this song.
LOL, I've been in the same boat; I once got cake level baked and started thinking of a friend while listening to this song. I was wielding a meat lance by the really edgy halfway point LOL.
Do we know where "Reverie" ends and "Harlequin Forest" begins? I never really know...
Amazing tune!
From what I've read, "Reverie" is actually the bit starting at around 5:23 in "Atonement", which then flows right into this track. The songs were divided incorrectly when converted to digital.
So when the harleyquin forest begins?
@@wageagustino9108 at 0:00
There is only a short Reverie reprise here, but this is only Harlequin Forest. Reverie begins at the end of Atonement.
@@chjoel7803 Right, and something similar happened with "Requiem" and "The Apostle in Triumph" on the first album. The second half of the former got tagged to the beginning of the latter in error.
7:43
I WANT TO FUCKING CRY HOW TF DOES THIS SOUND SO MELANCHOLIC AND SO HOT AT THE SAME TIME
ah..that outro is amazing
I love this song!
Part at [5:59] is amazing!
I like the second to last bass pick during this part, ever since I noticed it I can't unheard it, such a subtle little note but I makes a difference... to me at least..
