BigRedX Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 [quote name='FuNkShUi' timestamp='1461239946' post='3032764'] Some of those i've not heard of. Will check them out. Nice one [/quote] Have fun! You might have problems finding the Quruli track. For some reason the PV isn't available on YouTube in the UK. There are a couple of live versions, but since the studio original is made up of mostly loops and samples they bear little resemblance to it and IMO are vastly inferior.

Graham Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 [quote name='lowhand_mike' timestamp='1461255110' post='3032973'] Black Water Park - Opeth [/quote] Good choice, for me their best is The Moor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
