I just picked this up today. I've never even heard a Candlemass CD but I am so glad that this site exists otherwise I may have missed out on this release.....even worse, this band in general. I know ...I know...what rock have I been living under? Right? None the less, Jeff ..thank you. I love this CD. I listened to it completely in the car while running errands today. It kicks ass. I'm looking forward to buying it's predecessor soon too.
The band's overall sound (musically) on this CD reminds me of early Black Sabbath.
Glad the site influenced you to get into something "new". Definately check out their first four releases (Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, Nightfall, Ancient Dreams, Tales of Creation as well as their last with Messiah Marcolin, the self titled one). You won't be dissapointed!

I just picked up the self titled release. Once again you guys nailed it. It's a great CD. I'm so glad MR brought Candlemass to my attention. I just can't figure how I've missed out on Candlemass for so long.
