Album DescriptionDigitally remastered and expanded two CD edition of the Swedish Doom Metal band's 1986 debut, released to coincide with the album's 25th Anniversary. Epicus Doomicus Metallicus is a true classic. Heavy metal riffs blended with almost neo-classical touches, plus some theatrical elements bringing to mind bands like Mercyful Fate. All-in-all, this is considered one of the definitive Doom Metal releases. This edition of Epicus... includes a special commentary disc with founding member Leif Edling, recorded early 2011, discussing his memories and inspirations of the writing and recording process whilst the tracks play. The booklet also contains liner notes from the band, including an introduction from Aaron Stainthorpe of My Dying Bride. Peaceville.
