So much for Psalms For The Dead being their final recording.

The guy is not into metal anymore.

I think Mats Léven is perfect for Candlemass. Waaaay better than Rob Lowe. Saw them live right before he got fired, the dude would forget the lyrics for Solitude ffs.

This EP gives me hope i will see them live again.

The cover looks awesome.

My problem with Mats Leven in Candlemass is that it becomes too much like Krux. I saw them with Mats alst year and it was already quite Kruxy back then. As for Rob Lowe, it was indeed a disgrace he forgets lyrics and needs an autocue. But then again Rob Halford also forgets lyrics to Judas Priest songs and uses an autocues to help him.

As for Messiah, I don't think he will ever return to Candlemass too much bad blood between Messiah and the rest of Candlemass.

As for Längqvist he was never a member of Candlemass He was just a session vocalist for Epicus Doomicus Metallicus. He did however define Candlemass with his vocals and is still the best they used, which he proved when Candlemass played Epicus in its entirety a couple of year ago at Roadburn.

Yet there are *some* people who think Messiah is better than Längqvist AND define Candlemass sound far more....

I blame the pot.

Those people are totally off their rockers.
I don't know what to blame but pot certainly is among the subtances that can be blamed.

Messiah did what Längqvist does best at even more longer lasting impression.
