CANDLEMASS - a name forged in darkness; a legacy built on doom. Born from the cold shadows of Stockholm in 1985,
this Swedish titan of epic doom metal has stood as a monolithic force for nearly four decades. In 2025, CANDLEMASS
marks 40 years of sorrow-laden grandeur, a testament to their unwavering reign over the genre they helped shape. Their
journey began with the seismic release of “Epicus Doomicus Metallicus” (1986), a requiem that redefined heavy music,
followed by the monumental “Nightfall” - both now sacred texts in the annals of doom. These albums remain cornerstones
of a genre that thrives in the echoes of CANDLEMASS somber majesty. Despite doom’s reputation for slow, crushing
weight, CANDLEMASS themselves show no signs of slowing down. Relentless and untamed, they continue to storm
stages worldwide, bringing their towering hymns to devoted Candlemaniacs from Tokyo to Los Angeles. With Grammy
win in Sweden and a U.S. Grammy nomination in 2019, the band’s fire still burns with undiminished intensity. Originally
released in 2009, “Death Magic Doom” is the tenth studio album from CANDLEMASS.
