If you can tolerate growls in Opeth
Playing the first four in a row (live) certainly shows me that Versus the World is mellower (softer and less aggressive are also appropriate terms imo). Not sure how this continued on later albums, but I can imagine it helped them breaking through to a wider audience.Fact is, Amon Amarth made a significant leap in quality with Vs. the Gods. The early albums have some real gems on them, but generally speaking, I'm not overly fond of them.
