Our Take
Our Take
CANDLEMASS, the doom metal veterans, are back with their seventh studio album, "From The 13th Sun." And boy, does it pack a punch (or should we say, crush you like a falling statue).
The album kicks off with the ominous and haunting track, "Droid," setting the tone for what's to come. From the thunderous drums to the crushing riffs, CANDLEMASS take no prisoners on this record.
Lead vocalist, Messiah Marcolin, delivers his signature powerhouse vocals, soaring above the wall of sound created by the band. The track "Tot" showcases his vocal range, from guttural growls to ear-piercing screams.
Guitarists, Lars Johansson and Mats Bjorkman, shine throughout the album, with their intricate riffing and bone-crushing solos. The chemistry between the band members is undeniable, creating a cohesive sound that is both heavy and melodic.
Standout tracks include the epic "Black Dwarf" and the doom-laden "Codex Gigas," both showcasing CANDLEMASS at the top of their game. With "From The 13th Sun," CANDLEMASS prove that they are still a force to be reckoned with in the world of doom metal.
In conclusion, "From The 13th Sun" is a masterclass in doom metal, with CANDLEMASS delivering a sonic onslaught that will leave you begging for more. So grab your headphones, crank up the volume, and prepare to be crushed under the weight of this monumental album.
