Psalms for the Dead doom metal band Candlemass , released on 8 June 2012.[9] [10] [11] Leif Edling has since retracted this claim.[12] Psalms for the Dead is, however, the last Candlemass album recorded with singer Robert Lowe , who left the band just six days before its release.[13]
The album would become Candlemass' last full-length release in over half a decade, until the 2019 release of their twelfth studio album The Door to Doom Death Thy Lover (2016) and House of Doom (2018).
