Leif Edling
Candlemass, formed by bassist and songwriter Leif Edling in Stockholm in 1984, is well known for its influential Epic Doom Metal sound, which itself evolved out of the masterful Black Sabbath. Following the legendary and genre-defining debut, ‘Epicus Doomicus Metallicus’ (1986), ‘Nightfall’ was released just one year later. Joining bass player and main songwriter Leif Edling was vocalist Jan Alfredo Marcolin, better known as Messiah Marcolin, who became a well-established and highly regarded vocalist throughout the Metal world, with his distinguishing and theatrical tones establishing him as an iconic presence in the band until his departure in the early 1990s.
‘Nightfall’ alongside ‘Epicus…’, is widely hailed as an all-time classic, instrumental in shaping the scene that still exists to this day with its unrivalled melodic Heavy Doom, with the creation of classic anthems such as ‘Dark are the Veils of Death’ and ‘Well of Souls’ and bands such as Darkthrone, Paradise Lost and My Dying Bride often hailing Candlemass as being among their primary inspirations.
