Nemesis - The Day of Retribution

This is a MUST HAVE for any fan of candlemass, or doom in general
released in 84, Nemesis is Leif Edlings pre-Candlemass doom band. Needless to say its not "doom" in the modern sense (think electric wizard, sleep, etc) but in its true sense before it hit the mainstream pot smokers anonymous. Ive loved this album since I was a Freshman in Highschool in 98 and I scored it on the used rack at the local record store...still a favorite of mine!

Edling's vocals are haunting and imperfect, but some of the riffing is just so memorable. I always imagined this being recorded in a mildewey basement with torches lit and like dungeon cages hanging around see for yourself
