Candlemass
Epicus Doomicus Metallicus
Genre: Doom Metal
4.5 out of 5
I was sitting in the dentist chair about 11 years ago, listening to Sound Opinions Talk about one of their favorite records of the year. A Sabbath inspired Metal band called Black Mountain. I took their advice, listened, loved it and forgot it. I’m not inclined to listen to dark metal all that often.
Buy it was good.
We talk a lot about Sabbath in respect to where Ozzy took his brand of radio friendly metal and that shit is great but we often forget what those first Sabbath records sounded like.
This album is the direct Descendents off those first four. Dark, plodding, rich and epic.
There are no highlights because all of it is equally of the same Grande Epic operatic quality.
