When Tom Sutton left the doom band Church Of Misery, it was to make his long-established grand vision of an epic doom band come true. To accomplish this, he moved to Sweden and hooked his strings together with Patrik Andersson Winberg (ex-Doomdogs), Hans Lilja of Lotus (which for a period had Brian Robertson, ex-Thin Lizzy as guitarist) and Staffan Bjorck from the band Wildebeest.
Together with his and the band's doom and heavy metal influences, folk music, twin guitars and feel of old horror movies to create dark divine music, they became The Order Of Israfel.
The band comment on their deal with Spinning Goblin/Napalm Records: "The Order Of Israfel are thrilled to announce that we have signed to Napalm Records, and will be releasing our first album, Wisdom, in the autumn, 2014. We're extremely proud of the record, and know that Napalm will be the perfect home for it. We are also very excited to be sharing a label with the extremely legendary Candlemass, who have been one of the biggest influences on the sound of the band from the beginning. Cheers!"
