Ghost Reveries is the eighth studio album by Opeth, released on August 29, 2005, through Roadrunner Records. It returns to the Progressive Metal sound that was dropped on Damnation, but with more prominent keyboards than on previous releases.It is their first album with keyboardist Per Wiberg, who joined the band two years earlier as a touring member, but the last with guitarist Peter Lindgren and drummer Martin Lopez. The music video for "The Ground Conjuration" did not feature Lopez, who was dealing with health issues, but instead had then-Strapping Young Lad drummer Gene Hoglan, who briefly filled in for Lopez for live performances in 2004. Martin "Axe" Axenrot was brought in as a substitute for Lopez for the album's tour and joined the band full-time in 2006 after Lopez announced his permanent withdrawal from the band. Lindgren left the band in 2007 after being burnt out from performing and was replaced by then-Arch Enemy guitarist Fredrik Ã…kesson.Ghost Reveries is considered to be the darkest Opeth album. It was initially intended to be a Concept Album about a man's turmoil after doing something horrible and having him kill his mother in a symbolic act. However, the concept was abandoned as some songs got moved around and the unrelated track "Isolation Years" was added. The concept is still evident in some songs having a recurring occult theme stemming from frontman Mikael Akerfeldt having developed some interest in exploring the subject too see what he would make of it from the perspective of an adult, as opposed to being an edgy teenager.Opeth played the album in full on their 25th anniversary tour, which also took place in the year of the album's 10th anniversary. Track list: "Ghost of Perdition" (10:29) "The Baying of the Hounds" (10:41) "Beneath the Mire" (7:57) "Atonement" (6:28) note "Atonement" ends at (5:22) and is followed "Reverie", which is listed as part of track 5 due to CD editions having it as the pregap before "Harlequin Forest". "Reverie/Harlequin Forest" (11:39) "Hours of Wealth" (5:20) "The Grand Conjuration" (10:21) "Isolation Years" (3:51) Principal members: | |
