Candlemass - Demons Gate

Made in movie maker

Beyond all nightmares I met my fate
an ancient passage surrounded by hate
scared I was with my hand on my cross
I went into the demons gate
Across the Styx among the mists of Hades
a gate of stones marks the path
to soul's damnation and hell's wrath

Ancient evil is awaiting there
at the doorstep to hell
within it's darkness the demons dwell
From the dark age the passage hail
created by witchcraft and hate
where every sinner will meet his fate

The place is cursed by the hands of doom
unholy powers in reign
the devil's paradise of pain
Approach !
The Eibon opens for you
the choirs of damnation, call you on through
The twilight possesses, the heart of your soul
the starlight is fading to black, into the
Demons gate

My dad at the drums, (Matz Ekström)

He played drums at the whole Epicus Doomicus Metallicus album! :)

The production on this album is BOSS

[uhhhhhwhatever]

Does anyone know how to play this solo!? I really need to learn it

[76styles76]

been so long since i have heard this ...was a great intro to my metal innitiation

[joachimekstrom]

@TempleOfInanna2 I truly am! :) I let Matz know what you had written and he got happy!

He doesnt play any drums today though, he played at a digital Roland drumset but he sold it about 1 year ago, i am playing guitar myself and our dream together is to play with each other a little, making some songs with Doom/Death Metal/Hardrock etcetc genre music, and he will maybe eventually buy a ''real'' drumset.

Who knows? Maybe he will start another band, just as he did with Candlemass!

@joachimekstrom Be proud of your father! His drums are fantastic.

@ShatterproofmusicTM It should be on iTunes, but I would recommend ordering the CD.

@Mephisto28890 Nothing should be approached from only 2 sides. Everything should be approached from every angle imaginable. You only inhibit yourself from learning. Music is something that comes from within a person or group of people. It embraces their life experiences and their interests amongst many other things I'm sure. Open your mind my friend. It's not as scary as it may seem.

@joachimekstrom The best album of Doom Metal man...!

[TDP514]

@Mephisto28890

lol

When exactly do you "bring doom", though?

@joachimekstrom In a way, I should plead sorry to Candlemass, that back in the 80's I'd persuaded my guitarist to buy the only Epicus LP arrived in our country (Malaysia).... (although we didn't have a record player) so that nobody else around got chance be the fan of the band... Now my friend's kid is in his early 20's; sweating hard playing drum on demon's gate. The legacy lives on...
