CANDLEMASS Founder Leif Edling Comments on Band's North American Return

Swedish doom metal merchants, CANDLEMASS, are ready to make history and embark on what is sure to be one of the biggest events in metal in 2008… their first US tour in 17 YEARS!

This will also mark CANDLEMASS' first time performing in the States with vocalist and Texas native Robert Lowe, also of SOLITUDE AETURNUS fame. Bassist and founding member Leif Edling could bar ely contain his excitment when asked about finally returning to North America:

”Last time we were over was in 1991 and that’s way too long! We wanna make this tour a very special event for all our fans in the States and all new American fans of doom and metal too. It will be great to meet up and hang out, and play all the classic Candlemass songs for you guys plus some new ones of course. We’ve been waiting 17 years for this so make sure you don’t miss this opportunity to catch the Kings of Doom in your hometown! See ya soon in a city near you!”
