Candlemass appreciation thread v. You are Beeeewwwwiiittchheed

I don't know how many fans there are on the forum, but I think I remember seeing a few people liking them around here.

So let us flock together, and appreciate the godfathers of Doom metal. :metal :metal :metal

I only have one of their albums (Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, of course), but it's pretty fucking great. Every song is a fantastic gloomy, death-filled journey.

Seen them live, with the new singer, or well.. he isn't really that new anymore. :P
Really liked them when i was in a doom-phase like 2-3 years ago, mainly the first album that featured him on vocals, was it King of the grey islands or something? (cant remember the title)

If you liked that at all, keep digging. They have a discog full of awesome music. Nightfall being (if you ask me) the greatest Doom album out there. It's so god damn :2metal:.

I personally never cared too much for the singer you are referring to. He isn't bad, but I suppose I just like Messiah too much to care for others after him.

Best doom band of all time (outside of Sabbath). Love, love, love them. I honestly can say that Rob is their best singer. Love the current lineup and hope I get to see them sometime (was hoping they'd be a part of the Symphony X/Nevermore tour like in Europe).

I thought Death Magic Doom was pretty good. Not amazing like EDM or Nightfall, but serviceable.

Also the S/t is really, really underrated.

It was good, but it wasn't THAT good. Ape Uprising and Metazoa are two releases from 2009 that I'd put above it (From two bands I keep trying to pimp out to DTF but I keep failing  :lol )

Agreed! It was very disappointing when Messiah left the band.  I like some of their more recent albums, but Nightfall just slays!

Messiah was far too much of a drama queen. Rob is a superior vocalist and a much more of a humble team-player. The band is in it's best lineup right now in my opinion.

Big fan here.  I have most of their albums and all are excellent.  I'd say Nightfall would be my favourite.  Self titled is really good too, which isn't talked about much.


Messiah was far too much of a drama queen. Rob is a superior vocalist and a much more of a humble team-player. The band is in it's best lineup right now in my opinion.
 

I love Rob's voice but it's live where Messiah crushes him.  I was actually dissapointed with the Ashes to Ashes DVD, Rob just lacked a certain stage presence IMO.

Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Oh, Lat!
I've already got two survivors going atm so I can't do it, but do you think you'd do a Candlemass survivor? I'd definitely vote!

I've wanted to get deeper into doom for a while and this is certainly a band around the top of the list. Will try in the future.

Epicus Doomicus Metalicus is awesome, but that's all I have.

Anything like it with slightly better production?

Haven't heard much from them, only Epicus Doomicus Metallicus and Death Magic Doom. Both are great albums.

I would challenge that title with Samarithan.

This better be good, considering it's their final studio album.  The last one was pretty good, but not amazing.

I'm going to go ahead and get my hopes up for this one. I'm looking forward to more Candlemass. Plus, this also means the possibility of finally getting to see them live.


I'm a little bothered however that they didn't even hint at a possibly release date. Not even a time of year or month.
