Candlemass will release their House Of Doom EP on May 25th via Napalm Records. A lyric video for the title track can be found below.

The Swedish pioneers of timeless slowness, are back in top form, distilling the essence of epic doom metal. It only takes a few short bars of the title track "House Of Doom" to feel that familiar sensation again: yes, Leif Edling - aka the undisputed king of minor key songwriting - has returned. With him, he brings frenzied riffing, melancholy made sound and warm Hammond organ tapestries that form the pillars of every Candlemass classic.

Mats Levén on the EP: “We in Candlemass are proud to present 4 new songs to the world on the new EP House Of Doom! The title track is inspired by the House of Doom game from Hyperfrost. We're also very happy that our label Napalm Records are with us all the way - 2018 will be a big year for Candlemass!”
