Candlemass is on the first-wave lineup for Maryland Deathfest 2027, announced in June 2026, but no headline tour dates are confirmed. A festival slot is not a full tour. The band last played Nöjesfabriken in Karlstad on October 9, 2026. Vocalist Johan Längqvist said in an interview that the band has maybe half an album written, and Leif Edling has said recording is planned for 2027. A tour announcement around that album would be the next signal to watch.

About Candlemass
Swedish epic doom metal band Candlemass, whose 1986 debut Epicus Doomicus Metallicus gave the epic doom genre its name, is counted alongside Pentagram, Saint Vitus and Trouble as one of the "big four" of doom metal. The band disbanded in 1993, reunited four years later, split again in 2002 and reformed in 2004. Johan Längqvist returned on vocals in 2018, and the EP Black Star followed on May 9, 2025. Messiah Marcolin rejoined for a one-off show in Athens on September 13, 2025. In January 2026 Leif Edling said the band would begin writing a new album, with recording planned for 2027. Maryland Deathfest 2027 has Candlemass on its first-wave lineup.
