Listen To First New CANDLEMASS Song Featuring Returning Singer JOHAN LÄNGQVIST
"The Omega Circle" , a brand new song from Swedish doom metal legends CANDLEMASS, can be streamed below. The track is taken from the band's 12th album, "The Door To Doom", which will be released on February 22, 2019 via Napalm Records. The disc unsurprisingly follows the plotline mastermind, songwriter and bass player Leif Edling established in the past years: epic world-class doom metal that relies on slow mammoth riffing.
"The Door To Doom" features newly returned singer Johan Längqvist, who recently replaced CANDLEMASS's frontman of the past six years, Mats Levén. Also appearing on the record is none other than BLACK SABBATH's Tony Iommi, who contributes a guest solo to "Astorolus - The Great Octopus".
Commented Iommi: "CANDLEMASS are a major force in Scandinavian heavy rock and have always acknowledged the influence we had on their music. They asked if I'd contribute to a track which sounded pretty good so I thought, 'Why not?'"
Added Edling: "We feel very honoured that Tony Iommi said yes to play the solo on 'Astorolus'. The song was sent to the management and amazingly enough, the master agreed to let his mighty SG sing on the track! For me personally, this is a dream come true. Tony Iommi has always been my hero and guiding light when it comes to heavy music, so to hear that he likes the song and also would like to play on it gave me chills down the spine! I'm still in shock! But kudos to him to be so cool to even listen to it. Hats off! Tony Iommi is and will always be God!"

Похоже Robert Lowe был прав, когда сказал что Candlemass уволили лучшего вокалиста который у них когда либо был. Ланквист старается, молодец, но это не Роберт и даже не 20% от него, может качеством материала спасут альбом, но... верится мало. Вокалом Роберта можно просто наслаждаться безотносительно музыки, king of the grey islands - это лучшие вокальные партии что я слышал у Candlemass за всю их историю, жаль...
