CANDLE is a new band emerged in 2015 by guitarists Markus Janis & Christian Kanto (both from CORROSIVE CARCASS), who shared the same enthusiasm for Heavy Metal. Soon after joined brothers Jorma Pihlajainen (drums) and Juhani Pihlajainen (bass) as well as vocalist Erik Nordkvist with a very personal voice that perfectly fits the context of the band.

Blending classic influences that goes from the mighty MERCYFUL FATE with a dose of old US Metal a la early SAVATAGE and of course some NWOBHM a la early JUDAS PRIEST, just to name a few, CANDLE created a haunting and epic kind of classic Metal with which they started to work writing songs for their debut demo that was finally recorded during summer-fall 2016 and it's now officially released through Fighter Records, while the band is finishing work on their debut album due to be recorded around spring-summer 2017.

Tracklist for "Demo 2016" is as follows:

1. Betrayal
2. Dancing Lights
3. Frozen With Fear
4. No Peace For My Soul

Release date for "Demo 2016" will be February 15th through Fighter Records on an initial limited run to 500 copies on CD format.
