Background information über 'Psalms For The Dead'

Swedish doom metal legends Candlemass return with their ninth studio album "Psalms For The Dead", delivering another crushing chapter in their storied career. The album showcases the band's signature blend of cathedral-sized riffs, theatrical vocals, and apocalyptic atmosphere that has made them pioneers of epic doom metal since the 1980s. From the prophetic opener "Prophet" to the haunting title track, the album demonstrates why Candlemass remains the undisputed masters of their craft, weaving tales of darkness and despair with unmatched musical prowess.

The nine tracks on "Psalms For The Dead" explore themes of mortality, madness, and mysticism with the band's characteristic grandiosity. Standout moments include the mesmerizing "Dancing In The Temple (Of The Mad Queen Bee)" and the epic seven-minute journey of "Waterwitch", while "The Killing Of The Sun" delivers crushing heaviness in a more compact format. The album closes with the sprawling "Black As Time", leaving listeners in a state of doom-laden contemplation that only Candlemass can achieve.

For fans of:
Solitude Aeturnus, Saint Vitus, Trouble, Cathedral, and Count Raven
