"Orchid wasn't death metal, for it was conceptually, structurally or sonically analogous to no other. Rather, it was something more. With five songs traveling near and past the 10-minute mark, a piano piece (not an intro!), an acoustic guitar/tabla raga and an album cover with a pink floweran orchid, obviouslyOpeth's debut was, to quote frontman Mikael Akerfeldt in 1993, a masterful hybrid of 'Wishbone Ash, Black Sabbath and Bathory.'" - Decibel Magazine
