You won't be disapointed yorkman, Ghost Reveries is terrific. Get their Lamentations DVD to get a real flavour of what they are about. The first time that I was exposed to Opeth was at a Porcupine Tree concert. They only played Damnation so I was not exposed to the growling. I bought Damnation at the concert and have not stopped playing it going on 2 years now. Even my wife likes it!! I could not imagine that a band so sublime could growl, but they do. I agree fully with Rick. In most cases the growling is juvenile and detracts from the music but, every once in a while, you surprise yourself when you growl back.
