CANDLEMASS – New Video Featuring Tony Iommi

CANDLEMASS – New Video Featuring Tony Iommi

30th January 2019 0 By Jon Deaux

CANDLEMASS have come full circle: Their first singer Johan Langquist (who left the band after singing on the legendary 1986 debut Epicus Doomicus Metallicus) has returned!

They are set to release their 12th full length album The Door To Doom February 22nd via Napalm Records.

Now CANDLEMASS have dropped the second song from the album featuring legendary BLACK SABBATH guitarist Tony Iommi.

Leif Edling states:
“Here’s the video for Astorolus. Monsters and Gods come in different shapes. The eternal wheel of birth and death portrayed in a cool video and great song. Talking about gods, the master himself, Tony Iommi is playing the solo here (part 1+2 out of 3). Immense feeling, wonderful tome, so much presence!  Just incredible! Hats off to him for helping us out. A dream coming true! Looking forward to play it live on the tour with Ghost. We’re rehearsing it right now. New stuff and the old classics. Can’t wait to go out on this tour. Johan is back singing, “The Door to Doom” is getting brilliant reviews, the band is in great form… Will be a blast “!

Pre order The Door to Doom right HERE!

The Door To Doom 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. With Johan Langquist`s highly dramatic vocal style and the love for details, the band made this album to the next “Epicus”. This masterpiece is rounded off by a beautiful guest appearance by none other than Black Sabbath`s Tony Iommi on “Astorolus – The Great Octopus”.

Tony Iommi on his appearance:
“Candlemass are a major force in Scandinavian heavy rock and have always ackno

wledged 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’ “.
