Candlemass is a Swedish doom metal band formed in Upplands Väsby, a suburb of Stockholm, in 1984 by bassist, songwriter, and bandleader Leif Edling, alongside drummer Matz Ekström.

The band has had a defining influence on doom metal, with the epic doom genre itself taking its name from their debut album, Epicus Doomicus Metallicus. Along with Pentagram, Saint Vitus, and Trouble, Candlemass has been recognized as one of the “big four” of doom metal.

Back in November 2004, this lineup of the band announced their second reunion. They recorded a new album, simply titled Candlemass, and it was released in May 2005. The album earned them a Swedish Grammy that year.

Now available as a limited 2LP crystal white and black splatter vinyl pressing, this 20th anniversary edition of Candlemass is fully remastered and celebrates a milestone in the band’s enduring legacy.
