The man behind Nobody, Tuomas Kauppinen comments the single: “Saint Devil in the Fields is a rocking jingle-jangle of desolation and megalomania, a singular crooked figure in a field sown with hateful thoughts. It shadows the steps of the by-passer, luring them to doom with whispers of eloquence and promises of total power. It draws blood from the cattle, snatches children at nights and makes the dogs crazy with rabies. And yet during full moon it is worshiped by dozens of villagers, engaging in rites of unspeakable horror to worship their Dark Lord. This is their soundtrack.”

To celebrate 40 years of doom metal mastery and the release of their brand new four track EP, Black Star, Swedish epic doom metal pioneers CANDLEMASS have unveiled a cover of Black Sabbath’s legendary hymn “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath”. Originally cut from the classic 1973 Sabbath album, CANDLEMASS present their own version alongside an official music video.
With solemn intensity and seismic presence, CANDLEMASS transform the track into a funeral march worthy of doom’s highest pantheon. A majestic tribute that honors the past while shaking the crypt walls of the present.
CANDLEMASS mastermind Leif Edling comments: “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” needs no introduction, one of the best songs ever recorded if you ask me. Maybe not the obvious choice, but it’s been a dream for me to do it one day and here it is! Our rendition of S.B.S. (Mass Bloody Mass?)”
Swedish godfathers of epic doom CANDLEMASS present their four-track EP, Black Star. Packed with cavernous riffs, the genre-defying band unveils two brand-new songs alongside two cover versions of timeless classics.
Following the title track, the second original song, “Corridors Of Chaos”, marks a true old school instrumental containing both classic metal riffing and stunning guitar playing by Lars Johansson, showcasing the band’s mastery of dynamics. Adding to this tribute, CANDLEMASS delivers their rendition of Pentagram’s classic “Forever My Queen”, further cementing the bands remarkable contribution to shaping the genre into what it is today.

Super Glue Anxiety is a Finnish experimental music band. Their music is heavily influenced by various genres, including punk / ska / funk / metal.
The band started less than a year ago. They started their career cautiously, testing out a few singles. The feedback from the world was better than expected, so singer Kraapo and guitarist Räikkönen finally decided to record and release a full album.
Singer Kraapo has the following to say about the project: “We did it all winter, alongside day jobs and other projects. Now I feel relieved and happy that the release is finally seeing the light of day. Guitarist Räikkönen and I were surprised that the album turned out to be musically light. Maybe we had the impression that it was going to be heavier. However, there are a bunch of excellent songs on the album, so there’s no point in complaining.
The situation was that we had 20 demos. We got to choose the best ones from these. There were still some good songs left in stock, so maybe one day a second album will be released. These were edited at Samu Oittinen’s studio. We also had a few guest stars sing parts to different songs. This gave the whole thing a nice extra color.
The album has a lot of experimentation and creative madness. This album and this kind of music have been really fun to make.”
