Format:Audio CD
Another reissue this month sees Swedish legendary bringers of all things doom, Candlemass, subjecting us to a severe bout of intense, and often very good, no-nonsense metal. Complete with artwork featuring cliché imagery of inverted crucifixes and supernatural figures in the sky, this is exactly what you would expect from a band that almost single-handedly coined the term `epic doom metal'. For the uninitiated, however, whilst the band are very much centered around the doom aesthetic, it's not total bleakness. Then vocalist Messiah Marcolin (duties are now undertaken by Robert Lowe) sounds remarkably like Bruce Dickinson from that little known band Iron Maiden, whilst the guitar work is often uplifting and melodic. This reissue features the customary bonus disc containing interviews, demos and videos, which make this worthwhile, but perhaps only for the completist. After a million and one albums Candlemass are still going strong today and with better production quality it may be worth looking into their later work. But for the old-school character in you, this is a reputable addition to any metal collection.

Never a better mood bender 1 Oct 2001
By R. DOYLE - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Whether it's Pink Floyd for the Mello, Rage Against the Machine for the Angery, there is no better band to mother your mood, than Candlemass. I personally prefer those Candlemass releases fronted by Messiah Marcolin. His operatic bellowing of Candlemass' Doom-style lyrics, accompanied by heart pounding, soul tearing guitar riffs draw you in to a place you've never been, yet crave to stay. Trust someone who listens to everything from Bethoven to Slayer, this is a TRUE musical experience!

Doom Masters 27 Sep 2003
By C. Garces - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Tales of Creation was released in 1989 and is Candlemass's 4th album. To the Candlemass fan, this album is essential for it has fan favorites as "Under the Oak", "Dark Refelections" "Somewhere in Nowhere" and the title track. This album has the recognizable slow, sorrowful bass and guitar riffs and the operatic voice of Messiah Marcolin, the drum seems to beat slow, doomy, masterful. I think that anyone that is into Doom metal really needs to check Candlemass out, they are unique sounding and atleast for the first 4 albums, have the coolest album covers I have ever seen. Get this album and let the doom flow...

A Melodic Metal Masterpiece 9 Dec 2002
By MusicFreak - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
Candlemass has absolutely created a beautiful, powerful, emotional and brilliant work with "Tales of Creation." From the majestic intro that segues like a great movie sequence into the first song, to the very last sound, you are in for an exquisite Metal ride. The guitars are simply amazing - melodic and powerful, with exquisitely constructed solos. And, of course, Messiah Marcolin's voice is a touch of gold that elevates these works to heavenly heights. If you like your Metal melodic, yet powerful, with soaring operatic vocals, this is absolutely for you.
