DOORS 7:30PM

For the first time ever, Swedish epic doom metal pioneers CANDLEMASS will bring

their monumental sound to Australian shores this September and October for a long- awaited debut tour in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth.

Formed in Stockholm in 1985 by bassist and main songwriter Leif Edling, Candlemass stand as one of the true architects of epic doom metal. Alongside Saint Vitus and Trouble, they defined the genre — pairing slow, crushing riffs with grand, operatic vocals and darkly majestic compositions.

Their 1986 debut Epicus Doomicus Metallicus didn’t just introduce a band — it created a movement. Over the next four decades, Candlemass built a towering discography and enduring global legacy, earning Swedish Grammis Awards and were also nominated for Best Metal Performance at the 62nd Annual Grammy Awards in the US.

Now, Australian audiences will finally experience these hymns of doom performed live.
