On this day, November 9, 1987, Candlemass released their second album, Nightfall, a cornerstone in the doom metal genre. With powerful, somber tracks like “At the Gallows End” and “Bewitched,” Nightfall showcased Candlemass’s signature heavy riffs, deep lyrics, and operatic vocals, solidifying their influence in metal. This album is often regarded as one of the defining works of doom metal, gaining a devoted following among fans of the genre.

Who remembers Nightfall? Is it still one of your go-to albums for heavy, atmospheric metal?
