[@MrArcturus72]

dont compare Messiah with Johan. They are 2 different and unique singers...both amazing...hail to Candlemass.

[@miker.8282]

Candlemass has never put anything bad out. Every album is stellar. Johan does NOT sound like how he did when they first started. However, I still love his voice today. I was worried there wouldn't be much power in his voice until I heard this track which is killer! Can't wait to buy the bundle when that comes out!

[@magistermilitum1206]

I was gonna buy a cup, 2 shirts and some cds, but damn are they expensive. And I? A poor as fella. But i sweared if they're still together, i got money, and they're alive I'll go see them in Sweden. And if i have left over money I'll buy some merch. I gotta have that green The door to doom long hands shirt.

[@crapaudivre1517]

@@magistermilitum1206 I like the way you show respect to the band, buying some quality stuffs coming with this album release. Personally I essentially buy discs, sometimes deluxe versions, especially if it's a band I love. I am new to the discography of Candlemass so I just ordered the Nuclear Blast Years box set, because the CDs are cheaper in this form, even if I - of course - prefer the albums independently. And this is before buying the classic Epicus Doomicus Metallicus and other Nightfall ones.

The return of Johan and Candlemass=AWESOME

In the folds of mythology Never died, never born Demented God, a monstrosity Oh, you block the sun Octopus, the point of no return You're the hunger, the one There you wait, for moon and man to fall From the wall of the world Guardian of Nyx Epic in the abyss At the earth fall There's a mountain of skulls You swallow the earth Astorolus Astorolus Guardian of Nyx Epic in the abyss At the earth fall There's a mountain of skulls You swallow the earth Astorolus Astorolus Spearhead, beak and tusk Your arms, like silver in dusk Into the depths we are thrust Astorolus, Astorolus You will swallow us The great octopus, oh

[@michellecayne2386]

Johan is the vocals of Candlmass, glad he is back. The true sound has been restored, together with Tony lommi more power. Power And Strength metal heads. Rock music will never die. Others will.

[@billsemenoff]

Im a little disappointed the bands guitarist, didnt do this song. I mean Iommi is already a houshold name..but this band and the guitarist is still underrated in my opinion

[@Bigby.1]

Candlemass and Iommi together?? 2019 is going to be great...

[@DEthe5150]

And it just did: this song has been nominated for the Grammy award for Best Metal Performance!

[@coryfusting9294]

Astorolus got nominated! Rooting for Candlemass at the 2020 Grammys!!

[@flavioveiga7722]

A criatura se encontra, finalmente, com o seu criador. Isso é simplesmente histórico! Iommi, The Doom Master!! Vida longa ao Candlemass!

[@michellecayne2386]

The sound of Tony Iommi. Axe god

[@SamuraiTacos1]

me and his birthday tomorrow

[@whisper8742]

For almost thirty years I've longed to hear his voice... Finally!

[@michellecayne2386]

I have been a big fan of Candlemas for years followed on their tour of the U.K.27 years ago. That long, shit. The originate voice is back. The voice of Candlmass.

[@michellecayne2386]

It is good to hear the original voice of Candlemas again. 🎸🎤🤘🤘🤘👍 Power And Strength. My words my lyrics, from my song. Michelle Cayne.

[@ulfrhjarta]

What guitar player or bassist or drummer or vocalist wouldn't want to say I recorded with Tony iommi ? This is a dream come true for these guys . They have been grinding it out for quite a while . Congratulations !

[@maximehedin7143]

Well, I will listen to my old cds and forget I listened to that.

[@0uijab0red]

saw them live as the opening act for ghost and they surpassed my expectations. amazing band, honestly!

[@ffsf739]

They opened for Ghost???? Ghost should be opening for them!!!!!!!

[@wafflesingsong6715]

@@ffsf739 My thoughts exactly lmao

[@smitty4293]

apparently tobias forge, ghost’s front man, has been a candlemass fan since he was a teenager so it was probably a dream come true for him to have them play together

[@hermangeritz]

Brilliant song, guitarsolo's excellent.

[@ulfrhjarta]

Fantastic can't wait to hear the rest of the album . Candlemass have a rejuvenation on their hands . I hope all listeners embrace !

[@thanosar5042]

Kings of doom...

[@haroldfranks8286]

Messiah Marcolin, is great but THIS is the real voice of Candlemass!!!!

[@Tor_der_Schatten]

ich fand den Rob Lowe eigentlich auch ganz nice

[@hevorg1381]

such a great band

[@SpectralUmbreon197]

The ending sounds somewhat like the opening of The Eternal Idol, which makes it all the more interesting

[@kalebschultz]

for some people metal saves lives and alot of people listen to metal for there pleasure and fun!!!!!!!!!

[@hevorg1381]

Is this the one with Tony Iommi playing the solo?

[@robertstanfordcam2649]

Yes

[@societydwellingifd8080]

thought the guitar sounded familiar !!

[@SpectralUmbreon197]

[@michaelolz]

This is a rare perfect song. It’s gorgeous, big, heavy, like a slab of lead. I can’t think of a better musical way of describing a giant cosmic horror such as this.

[@moromorini5859]

El Dios supremo de la guitarra està de regreso, gracias Tony Iommi x "soberbio" solo de guitarra, aguante CANDLEMASS

[@aedanstorm]

Still here in 2024

[@jiricezemsky1832]

Love Candlemass since i heard first live song before many years. With Robert Lowe BTW. Since then I start listening all songs from the begging. I found my most favorites LP's in this order: Epicus..., King of Grey islands and Nighfall. Love Lowes voice and especialy on King of grey islands but Johan... Johan's voice in Epicus... it kicks arses so much... I had been grieving for many years for Johan's quit from Candlemass and never hoped he could come back. But Impossible cames true as God of Doom heard my praying!!! And now they are kicking arses like never before! Hope it would be Eternal!

[@loud-planet6489]

Tony Iommi - The Godfather of DOOM!

[@kalebschultz]

Johan is the original singer of the band he started with there first album!!

[@hammerfaced420]

the singer sounds like the love child of Lemmy kilmister and Ronnie James Dio, I love it.

[@alexandersimmons3350]

He's actually the same singer from their very first album. His voice is still fucking killer now, but I think he sounded even better back then, especially on the song "A Sorceror's Pledge".

[@AMisfit]

Then you owe it to yourself to go ahead and listen to Epicus Doomicus Metallicus (If you haven't yet). Enjoy 🤘

my birthday today along with mr iommi of sabbath

[@captaindeadeye788]

Right now, i feel the grammy award for best metal performance is a tough choice between this masterpiece, humanicide by Death Angel, and 7empest by Tool. I don't personally think killswitch should win because i dont like metalcore but thats my opinion. the winner will most likely be tool because its tool. they're bound to win. but this song is just...... holy shit. i didnt think it'd be this good. this is my first candlemass song. what a way to get into a band.

[@madnomad2246]

Check out Demon of the deep by them, it's like a prequel to this song, with different vocalist Rober Lowe who was also fantastic

[@hammerfaced420]

and it also kind of sounds like the sword but the sword also sounds like Sabbath hence Tony Iommi in the lineup

[@wizardingreen8642]

So much DOOM. Doomy as fuck.

[@Mydriatik1618]

Holy fuck

[@alexperry4691]

Another good track i think a door to doom is shaping up to be a good album, i admit i do miss messiah his vocals were so unique and really suited the epic nature of the music but it's great to have johan back in the band even though he sounds more like mats leven now !

[@alexandersimmons3350]

Pretty much all of Candlemass's various vocalists have been fucking killer. imo we've got enough albums with Messiah to enjoy and it's great to have Johan back for more when he only got one album so far prior to this one. If they were gonna bring anyone back I'd definitely pick him or the dude from Chapter VI, who I also wish had stayed around for more htan one album.
