Yes, especially if you like the more upbeat moments of Reverend Bizarre.
I also recommend The Wizar'd from Australia for more traditional fun and frivolity.

Finally got my Valkyrie - Man of Two Visions in the mail today. Fuck yeah this is good. top 10 stuff for me.
I'm listening to Release by Revelation, and it really is as good as I had read. I'd like to buy this album, and I will as soon as possible.

After one listen, I don't see how Nightfall can top Tales of Creation, but I'll come back to this after I give it time.

Seriously ? Nightfall is (and has always been) the best Candlemass album to my ears; proof is really by listening to either of the live albums. The best cuts always come from Nightfall - though (as Cythraul has alluded to) the production on the first pressing is really shite.

forgot to add Revelation, release is great. I got a WHW demo, not doomy enough for me..
Im dling to try Unorthodox and Vitus, went with Born too Late and Asylum. I remember Iron Man being good just forget to buy em...which penance you recommend? I think they have a shitload of cds and no reviews on MA =/

for penance, go with The Road Less Travelled/The Road Revisited and Parallel Corners for their most "doom" releases. They gradually got less doomy as time went on, but all their releases are very good. My personal favorite being Proving Ground. Most can be bought on eBay for failry cheap except the original The Road Less Travelled.
Long-running Finnish doomsters SPIRITUS MORTIS will enter the studio today 1st of January to begin recording their long-awaited third album, tentatively due in mid 2009 via Firebox Records.

That bothers me too actually, i'm thinking why mess with a winning formula? The chanting type vocals is one of their strenghts.
