Six out of the eight new tracks were forged by CANDLEMASS wizard Leif Edling, but guitar master Marcus Jidell and singer Jennie-Ann Smith also contributed to the songwriting and formed a worthy successor to The Girl With The Raven Mask that topped multiple sound checks in 2015 and brought them the ‘Up And Coming’-award from German Metal Hammer.
On September 15th, Swedish vintage doomsters AVATARIUM will hit the road for their European headline tour in support of their latest masterpiece Hurricanes And Halos, which just received the Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik e.V.
