Candlemass- Under the Oak

[philblaaaaaaa]

this is the far superior version. the original vocals are not bad tho but compared to messiah his voice sounds cheesy. i prefer this production aswell.

[ddteee]

classic metal fellas, another band i got an album for nearly 30 yrs ago. yeah!

[Lizardvenom1]

i remeber resting under an oak and ants chewed my ass off

[CosmicSeaOvFlesh]

Metal still means stuff and is still a kickass lifestyle, its just the music thats coming out new isnt the same as this. Think about it.. bands cant get any heavier, or more technical, or faster in what they play because its all been done before. Metals coming to the point where everythings gonna have to be reinvented :)

[wayfechylde3]

@CosmicSeaOvFlesh i disagree. there's still fresh, new sounds coming out, you just have to dig deep. also, dont forget the story of the US patent officer who retired at the end of the 19th century, thinking that everything that could be invented had been. just when we think something has gone as far as it can go, it suprises us, and i dont think metal is any different!

@poeticcreasoning38 this came like what 89?

[SuperFubar666]

[fall761]

Awesome and gigantic. Epic!!!!

[jjmora1789]

I just blew my fucking speakers...not even kidding.

[GolliwoggMusic]

Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

[vonborgs]

A characteristic doom sound of the ending 80's...

[kopriniotis]

Metal bitches!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ballsthatclank]

sucks compared to the original.

[bludgeonedPROD]

FUCK did that solo rip my ears apart

[poeticreasoning38]

I remember cutting school to get this album. The good ole days, I listen to all types of metal. I am old school. Metal meant something back then.

[MythificationYT]

@poeticreasoning38 It still does. 

[perrottafamily1]

@poeticreasoning38 Metal still means stuff today. You just gotta look hard for the ungerground stuff, and not the Nu Metal garbage they plague the radio with.

[sorenlykke1]

@poeticreasoning38 It was a way of life..... Still is M8



[poeticreasoning38]

@sorenlykke1 yes , metal does mean something, I live for it everyday

[thewheel246]

@poeticreasoning38 it still does to guys like us!!! f the pussy kids these days..dont worry it will be back for the revolution!!

[Concept300]

even though i like messiah, johann was the best singer for candlemass

[LycanthropicArt]

@Concept300

I completely agree, Längqvist was just amazing. Though Marcolm is pretty bad ass, too. Cheers!

[wackypack09]

@Concept300 I can't decide which I like better.

[blackenedintheend]

not even close to the original's outstanding vocal perfomance

[Sanny1064]

is it bad if i think the singer reminds me of ozzy's voice??

[DoomMetalSludge]

@Sanny1064 Its Doom Metal so of course it does! And its Traditional Doom Metal at that! Doom Metal in general is hugely influenced by Black Sabbath.

[DarkBlackPoizon]

@Sanny1064 extremely bad.

[Sanny1064]

@DarkBlackPoizon oh dear! does this mean we're going to argue pointlessly in the comments!!?!? cause i have a very well written arguement against your point of view. (sarcasm)

[DarkBlackPoizon]

@Sanny1064 Nah, no need to argue :D

But still, please, take some time and go listen to ozzy osbourne and his voice, okay? :D

[Sanny1064]

@DarkBlackPoizon lol no prob dude. :D its chill. its chill.

[0gr095]

I think Messiah is God, simply God, for me Messiah means Doom \m/

[KIZSuperfan]

With messiah, the lyrics are much more understandable, but some of the atmosphere and agony is lost, I think the two versions are equal..

[ADeadHeaDz]

Thanks for reuploading it. Better than the Epicus Doomicus Metallicus version, I think.

[0verlord1841]

hail candlemass :D
