Candlemass - "Astorolus - The Great Octopus" (feat. Tony Iommi)

Ο νέος δίσκος των Candlemass είναι προ των πυλών. Τιτλοφορείται "The Door to Doom" κι αναμένεται στα τέλη του επόμενου μήνα. Στο μικρόφωνο βρίσκουμε τον Johan Längquist (η φωνή του "μυθικού" "Epicus Doomicus Metallicus") και στο τραγούδι "Astorolus - The Great Octopus" τον "μεγάλο" Tony Iommi (στην κιθάρα φυσικά)...

Δελτίο τύπου: «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!

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‘.»
