Күн бұрын

In todays video I'm going to rank the Swedish Doom Metal legends Candlemass full discography. From their 1986 debut album Epicus Doomicus Metallicus to Sweet Evil Sun that came out last year. Candlemass has always been the project of bassist Leif Edling and there has been a few vocalists like Messiah Marcolin, Johan Längqvist, Thomas Vikström, Björn Flodqvist, Mats Levén and Robert Lowe in the lineup. Candlemass is one of the greatest doom metal bands of all time and albums like Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, Nightfall, Ancient Dreams, Death Magic Doom, Tales of Creation, King of the Grey Islands, Candlemass, From the 13th Sun and Chapter VI proves that. But also the new era has been amazing. So in todays video I'm going to rank all Candlemass studio albums from the worst to the best, Enjoy!

My first time listening to Candlemass was when I was in the Czech Republic last year, I was on a train heading from Munich to Prague. I listened to Nightfall, then Epicus. Something about the landscape and the heavy doom riffs just melded together so well. Sometimes we can distinctly remember the first time we listen to a new band or album that we know will be one our favorite records. Thank you RM, great video! I recommend ranking either Napalm Death or Carcass, two great Grindcore/Death Metal bands.

Great video! Definitely one of my favorite bands of all time and I am glad I grew up listening to some of their albums in cassettes. Imho Candlemass have some things that are unique: *a)* Underrated musicians (Lars Johansson is a very underrated solo guitarist, Leif Elding is a very solid bassist and Jan Lindh is indeed a great drummer) *b)* An amazing ability to change pace and melody within the same song. You can see this in their older live performances where they can string even two different songs together and there are almost 5-6 seamless pace/melody changes (with solos included) and they "just fit". *c)* Maybe I have not heard too many other bands, but Candlemass are the only band I know that can actually perform/write those odd solos where the backing guitar and bass are "doom" or "simplicity itself" and the solo guitar is almost speed/power metal (e.g. the solo in Demon's Gate). I think the only regret most people have about Candlemass is Messiah. We can all argue endlessly who was the best/favorite singer for Candlemass *overall* , but I think that there is *no argument* as to who was the best Candlemass singer for a *live show* ... A lot of things can be said about Messiah, but the man was the epitomy of "stage presense". Be well!

Though I'm more into Power Metal, there was a time that I did listen to Candlemass before. From here, I say about their best albums are Epicus Doomicus Metalicus and Nightfall. Tales of Creation, Ancient Dreams and the self-titled are still good. King of the Grey Islands is kind of good. Though I admit I didn't listen to the rest of the 90s Candlemass albums and I stopped getting into Candlemass as the 2010s came, though I did listen to Candlemass occasionally. It's interesting to hear Johan Langqvist back and it looks great, though he doesn't sound the same as he was before.

Chapter VI is a fucking amazing album!!! Easily my favorite album from them. I wouldn’t even call it a doom album. At least not completely. It had more in common with older Fates Warning or Omen or something in that vein. Maybe that’s why it’s my favorite. I would say the first 4 albums are good too because they do contain elements of classic power metal. It’s not doom like how Electric Wizard would be for instance. Which is good cuz I hate that type of doom lol. I’ll have to delve into the post Chapter VI albums. I remember having that 05’ reunion album and felt it was more of a 70’s Sabbath sounding album which I didn’t like but maybe I’d like it now if I heard it.

yes, it should be considered a metal classic but it's kinda forgotten about. cheers

I agree absolutely with the first option, is a heavy heavy breakthrough being soooo epic and dark , i mean its just unbelievable, i bought nightfall and didnt like it compared to this one, and demons gate yes is a heavy epic doom creeper

I didn't know that you were going to pick EDM as your favorite as your favorite when I said that it was trendy to name it as your favorite . Other than myself I have yet to meet anyone who doesn't think that Epicus Doomicus Metalicus is the best Candlemass album. It's my third favorite. 1. Tales of Creation 2. Ancient Dreams 3. Epicus Doomicus Metalicus 4. Chapter 6 5. From the 13th Sun 6. King of the Grey Islands 7. Nightfall ( heard it too many times) Never listened to their other albums

Candlemass is the best band since Mercy. Autotype changed it to Mercyful fate. I love Mercyful Fate, but they don't relate to the Candlemass family tree like Nemesis, and Mercy. I personally prefer Robert Lowe with Solitude Aeturnus, and I prefer Tales of Creation to Epicus Doomicus Metalicus. Although Sorcerers Pledge, and Black Stone Wielder, but I think Messiah blows away Linguist ever did. Its trendy to prefer EDM , great album, but Ancient Dreams, and Tales of Creation are just better

I think that the return of Johan Längquist was not the best decision, his voice doesn't sound the same as you say, it sounds worn out and Leif Edling compositions from the last two albums sound repetitive and uninspired, I think that if they are going to continue that way they should retire with dignity.
