Ghost Reveries is the same Opeth style, but finally with the new ideas and inspiration the band desperately needed after running dry with Deliverance. A great example of what I’m talking about is the Eastern-influenced psychedelia of “Atonement” (there’s a bit of it in the slower guitar solo in “Reverie / Harlequin Forest” as well).

Also, gotta love that bluesy solo at the end of “Hours of Wealth.” With Damnation, Ghost Reveries, and Heritage, Opeth have shown that they’ve found some guts, and I pray they don’t lose them any time soon.
