Band biography
Leif Edling photo
Leif Edling began his musical career in the Stockholm based hard rock act Trilogy in the late 70s where he worked alongside later to be Europe drummer Håkan "Ian" Haugland. In 1985 he launched his ground breaking doom metal band Candlemass who became well-known world wide for its fresh pioneering sound and unique vocal approach of frontman Messiah Marcolin.

During 2008 he started working on his debut solo album entitled "Songs of Torment - Songs of Joy". The vocals were recorded in the bedroom of mixer Stefan Fandén, keyboards in the studio of Krux keyboard player Carl Westholm while bass and drums were recorded in a more traditional studio environment (drums by Tiamat skin basher Lars Sköld). Guitars on the album were handled by Björn Eriksson and Chris Laney.

Leif Edling labels the music of his solo album as "minimalistic organ doom" and it is set for a March release through Candlelight Records.
