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....

wtf...blabbermouth reported that the Candlemass guitarist, Mats "Mappe" Björkman, was sentenced to two years in jail for grand theft. Here's the article - http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=93330. I really hope they won't have to delay tours and their next album.

What does this have to do with being a musician or not? His monolithic riffs still stand.

thats right. but i think it isn't right to steal music, as he did. i know that doens't sound good, but i mean does he want that his music is stolen? do you buy music, or steal by doing different things'? i of course agree with you that he's a musician.

Just listening to "Dark Reflections" from 'Tales Of Creation' and it's great. Have you listened to the whole CD yet pyro?

Oh yeah, I love listening to that album in my car on the way to work. Like you said, Dark Reflections is fucking awesome; by far the best track.

Damn... some of you gonna think that I'm an idiot [and I can second that anyway] But some moths ago I deleted my Canbdlemass stuff because I didn't listen to it so often and my computer was too full of shit. Now my computer is fine.. and I'm thinking.. that this band is fucking great and the samples from the new album sounds incredible, specially the corus from the song "Of Stars and Smoke" which is ver very beautiful vocal work. It really touched me... I will download the whole stuff again... and buying some cds maybe.. because this band started to grown on me very fast. I need some recommendation... I know that the first four album are a must-have.. but what with the later albums?

Damn them all to hell! Their first U.S. tour in 17 years and they don't come anywhere near where I live. But hey, what's new? This always happens. Nothing new. Regardless, I want to see them live. One day.

I'm just getting into these guys, they're great! The guitar parts are well thought out. I'm really liking the "Nightfall" album.

Does anyone have any idea what kind of guitar gear do they use? Of course, I'm mainly interested in what amps they had. Love the crushing sound, especially on their earlier albums.

17.07.2008 - 22:56 Written by X-Ray Rod on 17.07.2008 at 22:55 They are bland sounding, and Candlemass comes across as very uninspired. So no added value there.

Messiah needs to come out with an album or start a project that answers "king of the grey islands". Messiah is the fuckin man.

I seem to be actually the only one who, although enjoyed a lot KOTGI (how anyone couldn't?) felt a little bit dissapointed as it was totally eclipsed imo by the greatness of their self/titled released two years before. With King... the band sounds a bit self-satisfied for me, not willing to explore new pathways, for which the vocalist change was the perfect ocasion.

21.10.2008 - 02:33 Written by [user id=8724] on 20.10.2008 at 13:54 You should check it out man. It's their darkest album they've made and one of my favorites. The fact that Rob Lowe is on it is reason enough to check it out! It does take time to grow on you though...

21.10.2008 - 22:27 Written by Dangerboner on 21.10.2008 at 02:33 Exactly. But listening to it you can hear that Lowe is still trying to find his ways within Candlemass. It seems like he is totally at ease there now judging by the two new tracks on the Lucifer Rising e.p. and also judging by the re-recording of Demon's Gate. I, for one, can't wait for the new album to appear in spring 2009. I wonder how far Solitude Aeturnus are with their writing of new songs. Rob Lowe is God. He shows that Messiah was easily replacable. But let us not forget Candlemass', probably, best vocalist, Johan Lanquist. A truly underrated genius.

Ever since you posted that link to Lucifer Rising and I listened to it, it has been stuck in my mind. It's a really great song. It even made me order a two Candlemass albums
