Candlemass' 'From the 13th Sun' is a masterpiece, hanging like a derelict spacecraft orbiting a doomed sun about to go supernova. Rarely has a group combined heavy, Sabbathy doom with spaced-out effects and sf lyrics to create such an otherworldly, tripped-out slab of genius, giving the grateful listener an instant contact high. The thick, druggy brilliance fairly oozes out of the speakers, demanding attention even as you plunge headlong into Candlemass' icy, doomed vision.
'From the 13th Sun' was the second signpost on the road to Candlemass' comeback, begun by bass player Leif Edling after the band broke up in the early 90s. With the relative lack of success of Edling's subsequent project, Abstrakt Algebra, he determined to resurrect the mighty Candlemass, this time without the operatic vocals of their well-known singer, Messiah Marcolin. The comeback began with 'Dactylis Glomerata.' Although 'Dactylis' certainly had its moments, the album's recording turned into a time-consuming, bloated affair that was best avoided in the future. Thus, groupmeister Edling and crew determined to make '13th Sun' an altogether quicker affair, with a minimum of money shelled out for recording expenses.
The entire album is one of the ultimate trips in heavy music of any genre. Sure, there could have been a bit more bass, or the album might have been better off without 'Mythos' tacked on the end. Maybe. But the fact is, this is an essential, top-10 album for anyone even remotely interested in trad doom or space rock. No doom collection is complete without it.
