I love the new Candlemass!
It's a bit hard comparing it to Nightfall though, I got that one when it came out & I'd never heard anything like it before, so it had a huge impact on me, & it's one of my most listened-to albums of all time.
Not that this one isn't as good, it just doesn't have quite the same impact. Definately one of the best things I've heard this year.

Im not fond of Candlemass albums, way better live because they speed up the tracks a bit. Cool band nonetheless and i could do no harm then to give the disc a spin.

Yeah I'm definitely interested in checking this one out. Anybody with any interest in doom has got to check this band out. The first album is one of my favorite albums ever. If skully likes it, well, that's saying something cause that bastard is as fickle as they come.

That's exactly what I think. Nightfall is one of the best metal albums ever!

I listened to a couple of songs so far on the local metal show, both great songs. More than Born Again, I think the songs sounded modern, in a positive way (i.e., heavy like never before for Candlemass).

Definetely a must have!

"Forty-five moments of perfection translated through a cautionary escape into the perils of the mundane, the inherent entropy in ultimate order, and the potential threats of eternal, unchecked apathy in civilization; all cloaked in musical expression so thoughtful, creative and forward thinking that almost a quarter-century later, few can even comprehend it, much less match it." (autothrall)
