Origin - Sweden
Genre - Epic Doom Metal
" Epicus doomicus metallicus is the debut of this Swedish band around big composing talent and bassist Leif Edling. The title of this work most probably led to the use of the term "Doom-metal" to describe this musical genre. Unlike doom death, classical doom metal bands like Candlemass don't use any death grunts, only clean, traditional heavy metal vocals"
"Candlemass take what Black Sabbath were doing circa Heaven and Hell to the next logical step. Epic doesn’t even begin to describe what these Swedes were conducting on this album. Take the opening intro to the song “Solitude” It begins with a deceptive acoustic guitar fiddling away as a voice akin to a lost soul calls out for his own death, immediately following this come the guitars crashing down. A truly monstrous riff is unleashed and they have reached limits previous unheard of in levels of heaviness.....This is a Absolute Classic !
Doom Hall Of Fame!..........Get It!
