[edit] Garbled syntax

<< the start end of "Requiem" was placed at the beginning of "The Apostle in Triumph" >>

What does this mean? Slicing 00:43, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

The consequence is that Requiem is shorter and TAiT is longer. HTH.--84.189.41.130 10:25, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Genre

One thing I wonder about, is if any of you editing this article have heard "Black metal" before. This album has no aspects of Death metal , Even the roars on this album and Morningrise are higher and more along the lines of the 90s Scandinavian Black metal.

It says in the article, that the album has the signature aspects of Opeth, the roaring and heavy guitar of death metal, And "Progressive" elements like singing and acoustic guitar, Bergtatt has screaming vocals, as well as clean vocals and acoustic guitar passages , And also, the "Heavy guitar" is in the style of black metal and not death metal, Not saying they didn't have more "Progressive" elements (They definitely seemed strange among the other 90s Black metal groups), Just saying that's not a good example of what's more "Progressive" about them.

Go listen to Nile and Cannibal Corpse, Then listen to Bergtatt and other early black metal albums and tell me which one is more similar. There's little, or nothing, Death metal about Orchid or Morningrise

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
