didnt enjoy candlemass at all. saw them at Bradford rios, me and my girlfriend went to sit down after about two song. As soon as we sat down the singer from distruction came out and signed my Destruction Cd for me, and we got to meet the rest of the band.

That album is the BBB of doom in my opinion. I haven't heard much doom but how can it not be? :lol:

I bought 'Epicus Doomicus Metalicus' and after hearing it went straight back down to the record shop to buy 'Nightfall' (which had just come out). So heavy, so slow... love 'em . The new album is really good, shame the singer has left I love his voice.

They do have a great replacement though. I'm sure they will kick just as much bum as they ever did.

I used to record Tommy Vance's Friday Rock Show on Radio 1 years ago. He played Kreator's Behind the Mirror, followed by Bewitched by Candlemass one night.

I nearly wore that part of the tape out after just a few days.

I've recently decided that Epicus is basically as good as Nightfall, and also has the superior claim of coming first - Nightfall really doesn't do anything new at all, just refines the formula and is perhaps full of more memorable moments.
