I'm not a huge fan of the doom metal genre. For the most part I prefer music that is more melodic and upbeat. Still, there are times when only something unrelentingly heavy will do, and that's where a band like Candlemass fits the bill perfectly.
Candlemass's 1989 album Tales of Creation is the band's fourth studio album, and was the final album to feature titanic vocalist Messiah Marcolin - at least until their short-lived reunion and self-titled release a couple years ago. Tales of ...

Candlemass were probably the first metal band to out-doom Black Sabbath with their plodding riffs, spastic solos and deliciously operatic vocals. The Swedes seemed entirely earnest in their pursuit of the highest levels of metal cheese, and there is no doubt about their technical proficiency. Tales Of Creation is their concept album about... well, it's not entirely clear, but I like it! It doesn't really have any anthemic songs like Mirror, Mirror or At The Gallows End, but all the songs are good ...

This is the best album that Candlemass has ever produced. It doesn't have any classics such as "Ancient Dreams, At the Gallows End," or "Mirror Mirror" but there is so much power and emotion on this album. Messiah is at his best, the riffs are darker and heavier than ever and the production value is top notch. You still have the epic drums and crushing guitars accompanies by the piercing solos. Lyrically this is a great album as well.
Overall this is the best this band has ever produced ...

Heavy guitar sounds and an operatic voice... Unique blend that mixes so perfectly!
