- CANDLEMASS - AT THE GALLOWS END
With The Legendary Original Candlemass Vocalist.....
JOHAN LANGQUIST (Epicus Doomicus Metallicus)
The Best Doom Metal Voice Ever! This Version Is Pure Perfection!
Doomology 2010
LONG LIVE THE MASTERS OF DOOM...............................
Sunrise I greet you, the beauty of your light
so warm and tender was never the night
In tears I see you, the last time it will be
so give me your blessing, I'll meet my destiny
No rest for the Sinner
Hypnos refused me my sleep
This was the last night of my life
with wine I pondered on my deeds
I drank to the devil with servants
It's good with a friend where you go
No one would share my last chalice
So I drink to the ones that I know
Ring brother, ring for me
Ring the bells of hope and faith
Ring for my damnation
I am at the gallows end
With sad emotions, I sing this epitaph
my swansong, my headstone, the farewell of my heart
The hills of Tyburn, up where the gallows stand
only the vultures will come to see me hang
Behold the sight of my Golgatha
the gallows enlightened by the moon
proud of his art are the carpenter
his creation a tool for my doom
I am the outcast no winner
I am the fallen the one
that lived all his life as a sinner
The Tempter has called me his son
Soon it is time the dark has now fled
and I see the place for my death
the priest he will pray for my lost soul
I'm sure he's wasting his time
A sinner, a fool or a devil
or just a victim of life
It's no fun to burn in hell's fire
but I sure have enjoyed my life
Ring brother, ring for me
Ring the bells of hope and faith
Ring for my damnation
I am at the gallows end
EPIC DOOM PSYCHEDELIC METAL!!!
imagine how epic "Samarithan" and "Bewitched" would have sounded with Johan singing them
There's no human being who could sing Bewitched the same way that Messiah could. Bewitched is the song that made me a metal head.
the voice that redefined DOOM, even the very word itself.
Ring the bells of our damnation
Certainly Epicus Doomicus Metallicus is the best Doom Metal album ever, and Johann's voice (gloomy, dark, desperate) is much more suited to Doom Metal than Messiah's (strong, orchestral). This Johann attempt to cover At the Gallows End is a lot better than Messiah's attempt to cover Under the Oak. Messiah himself told no one could express emotion in Under the Oak like Johann did.
I think these guys had the right idea in doing totally different versions with Johan and Messiah. Too many bands make the mistake of doing the song exactly the same way with a different vocalist and most of the time it doesn't work for that vocalist. These guys are brilliant!
It feels odd to hear this, because I'm so used to Messiah's version. But Johan's version grows on you, after a listen or two. He has a raw emotion to his voice that no other Candlemass singer has been able to match, even though Rob Lowe got close at times on Death Magic Doom. Johan is a sadly underused singer, and I hope you will join me in shouting MORE LÄNGQUIST FOR THE PEOPLE!
Greetings from the future, Johan is now a full-time vocalist of Candlemass since 2018.
Damn, damn, this would be so awesome if Johan could still hit those high notes like on Metallicus. He still sounds good, but it's not the same, I miss his screams :(
2018. Johan is back in THE band :D
WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE
i kinda like his old voice it makes it seem like an old wise "messenger" of sorts
Johan is a great emotional singer and Epicus is trully an amazing album, but Messiah's performance in nightfall is flawless. The best metal singing performance I think... We love both Messiah and Johan anyway...
Now for this song, undoubtly Messiah's version is far better.
My view on the eternal question wether Johan or Messiah was the best singer in Candlemass is, if you emphasize the "metal" part in doom metal, it's clearly Messiah, and if you emphasize "doom", then it's Johan (just listen to Solitude!). Robert Lowe, I think, is a very close second to them. He was great, too, and I'm sorry he's gone.
In terms of technical ability, it was Thomas, he ran operas
Ian Cavon ay Tbh mats sounds close to Johan than anyone Tbh. But lowe Tbh has that dark atmospheric type vocals and Johan sounds like a depressive soul dark soul. It's just so beautiful
Does anyone have a playlist or info on everytime Johan had played live with Candlemass and recorded with them? Got most of it down I think but it's a little confusing.
Sorry, but I can not agree with the many lines here for Lanqvist as THE singer of Candlemass. He's a great singer, no doubt, but Marcolin made the special Candlemass sound on the classic albums and his voice is very much doom in the way Candlemass played at those albums.
Yes my friend Marcolin a better singer but i will remind you a small detail..Epicus--best doom album ever created..Who is the singer there??Johan...easy peasy..!!!!!
Johan singed on their best album. I will see Johan sing first album this saturday. :)
@@2Times22 ...and I think the singing is the less good part of the first album.
This feels like a completely different song with a bit changed vocal melody and vocals itself! Thank you for uploading. It's like a heard a new Candlemass song
2013..and there are still people arguing Messiah vs. Johan, Metallica vs. Megadeth...
blagorodna90 They are both great!
I like all of there singers they each bring something new to the band
Johan's fantastic, always has been. He's way up there with the very best.
That was excellent. I'm not going to get into the Johan v Messiah debate, because both are fantastic. It's really cool to hear their versions of each others tunes.
Better than Marcolin. I've always wondered how Nightfall, Ancient Dreams and Tales of Creation would sound like if Johan was on the vocals. Marcolin is nice but I prefer Johan, he sings more dynamic.
johan should never left candlemass
Sorry...but I didn't like...it's sound like out of of rhythm
great voice,also love Messiah's voice to.The band couldn't do wrong with either singer.
Still Nightfall's version better. But this, it's also good to be honest
such a mournful voice, it suits this song perfectly!
I always imagined the whole Nightfall with Johan.
I enjoy listening to both vocalists. I think... this song in general... just feels right on all levels.
If Johan was in all Candlemass records the world would be a better place to live. Messiah is unbeatable in Memento Mori, but this is Johan's band.
exactly my thought as well plus the guitarist & drummer on epicus too All 3 of them killed it !
Nope, tempo is fucked up and doesn't fit in. Messiah was by far their best singer if you ask me.
i don.t agree... i like both singers but Messiah is more powerful and evocative, no doubt about that (at least for me). I prefer the Nightfall version.
And also, I don.t think Epicus is the best doom album ever... that award goes to St VItus' Born Too Late in my opinion
No, that award goes to Saint Vitus Saint Vitus or Trouble Psalm Nine.
Langquist is a beast.
and back in cmass
Johan is an awesome singer especially in the Epicus album . But the Messiah's version is more.....epic I guess . Just as Messiah can't reach the glory of Johan's voice in Epicus , Johan can't sing Messiah's songs as well as him . But it's just my opinion of course :)
@MadStone666
Messiah has more octaves then Johan. But both are great singers and great people. I seen both preform live and they are just breath taking both of them
@MadStone666 first off all this is a raw recording in case you didn't notice. You must accept the fact that "Epicus..." is undoubtedly the best Doom Metal album in history. Naturally Marcolin should have more power in his lungs because he is a much larger man and he still one of the great singers but does not come close to Johan's voice and the feeling. I wish "Nightfall" was recorded with Johan.
Not bad but not a patch on the nightfall version.
opinions.... but sure those you mentioned are great albums.... and St Vitus is maybe my favourite band
Maestro de los grandes (((((👊👊👊
One of the best Epic doom metal bands
Amazing version
Nice.
ρε τι λένε τα παιδάκια ρε?
IMO better then the Nightfall version
Hessel M I think it would be better if he could sing higher tbh but I still love this!
@@bigbellyfyoy no need for higher, I think his actually voice fit better because they are lower than Messiah's
