Candlemass
The Door To Doom
CANDLEMASS have come full circle: their first singer Johan Langquist (who left the band after singing on the legendary 1986 debut "Epicus Doomicus Metallicus") has returned to sing on a studio album after several much-praised live reunion shows with the Swedes!
"The Door To Doom" (of course graced by another semi-ironic title flirting with the band`s genre impact) unsurprisingly follows the plotline mastermind, songwriter and bass player Leif Edling established in the past few years: highly polished epic doom that doesn`t simply rely on slow mammoth riffing, but also feeds of of the ever-present hammond organ and Johan Langquist`s highly dramatic vocal style.
