Candlemass, the founders of epic doom metal.
Their First four albums Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, Nightfall, Ancient Dreams, Tales of Creation are flawless, and its very difficult to choose the best from these bests.

So defn there must be many Candlemass and epic doom metal fans around with views for this Epic band.

(Arguing If Candlemass was the first doom metal band or weather Epicus Doomicus Metallicus was the first doom metal album is what most of the times is discussed and i would recommend to keep away frm these "Arguable" issues)

Views About the band, albums and Fav tracks, news etc Post On....

cheesiest band. ever. and this is coming from a manowar fan, I just watch the video for 'bewitched' and I think im gonna be sick from injesting so much cheese through my eyeballs. funny music though.

Come'on, be serious.... How can Candlemass be cheesy? They never were, they never will be. Do you know their albums, ever seen them on stage? No, not cheesy at all (it's even a disgrace thinking about Candlemass beïng cheesy). They released awesome albums and now they have Robert Lowe as a singer.

Candlemass are a great band. I haven't heard doom metal much, but I can say that if more bands are like Candlemass I might become a great fan of doom metal. I have heard only Ancient Dreams and Nightfall and I can say they are masterpieces. From the epic feel in them, the dark atmosphere to Marcolin's vocals there aren't any errors. And about the Bewitched video - it's really funny. Marcolin is really funny. Those moves and faces that he made on the video...It's not a very good video.

I have been listening to the new album for ages now and it will certainly be worth your wait. Somehow I find that Robert Lowe fits Candlemass even better than Messiah Marcolin. Robert has a bit more expression and feeling in his vocals than Messiah.

Good to hear that Marcel. I don't doubt that the album will be good. I spent a very pleasant moment during the listening of samples. The end of wait come and soon we will put our hand on it.

Candlemass would alone get points just for attempting something so bold. They've faultlessly done what exactly fans have expected to hear from them however, their releases cannot be recommended highly enough to those with a taste for musical deviance and that's why they have always been underrated.

Nigga please, if you can't see that the 'Bewitched' clip is cheesy (intentionally, but still), you're deluded by fanboyism.

Cheesy video doesn't mean cheesy band, and Candlemass certainly isn't one. Most videos from the 80's look terrible nowadays.

The new album is good, but I think I prefered the self titled. Marcolin is a better vocalist too. But check it out, it's definitely worth a listen.

I know this band for a long time, but recently I really got into them. The new album is really good. With beautiful songs as "Emperor of the Void" and "Clearsight". The album I like the most for now is "From the 13:th Sun". It's strange with a great ambiance.

I'm glad Lowe is the new singer. He is probably the only person in the world who fits Candlemass after the great singers they've had.

I've been listening to Candlemass for about two years now..but I've really only listened to Tales of Creation, Nightfall, and Epicus Doomicus Metallicus. I know they have a lot of material..so I would just like suggestions.
