King of the Grey Islands

All Music 3/5 Even if there's never a satisfying consensus over this whole "Messiah mess" (and there won't be!), doom fans can rest assured that King of the Grey Islands once again proves Candlemass' enduring relevance and near supremacy in the upper echelons of the doom field.

Blabbermouth.net 7/10 For now, we've got "King of the Grey Islands", a fine album in its own right, and one that – despite its minor flaws – should silence most naysayers and launch the next phase of their career quite nicely.
