Sorcerer (The Swedes)
Sorcerer (The Swedes)
This was one HELL of a band. I have only managed to get the "Heathens From the North" LP so far. I was in doubt whether this should go into the Metal Conquest sub or here. I guess this can turn into a discussion thread, hence my choice!
Seriously though, this band had KILLER potential and their material is simply out of this world. To think that got started right along with Candlemass and where the C-mass succeeded, Sorcerer fell into oblivion. Does anyone know of sources of information on this band? I'm planning to do a special on them for my zine and would most definitely appreciate some material, as not to go completely blind!
If anyone knows of where I could spot more of their material, PM me please

not really,sorcerer started years later than candlemass and the C influence is verging on blatancy more often than not.
You;re missing the brainticket CD-a consortium of their work,but i think it's rarer to find these days than a good recent manowar song
Killer band.I prefer them to all current swedish epic doom bands by far

@ GJ : Cursed may you be, may a thousand bats carry you to hell, jealousy, jealousy, jealousy. Especially because I can barely afford to feed myself, let alone start giving away wealthy amounts for those tapes.
I huuum... borrowed their CD, and just listened to it this evening in fact. But yeah, it manages to slip from every search I've done in the internet. Google is not my friend. There was a guy once, found his blog through some particularly strange and shifty ways, had the "Inquisition" tape on the trade list. Sent him a PM and haven't heard a thing for a year already...
If you're not into that wave of Doom, then Sorcerer wouldn't make it for you either, true.daniel wrote:GJ could you take a closer photo of that first tape or scan it, I really like the art.
Well I have the LP, and it's nothing special, I'm not even that big a Candlemass 'fan'.
But yeah, the cover art of the first demo is AMAZING. I have never managed to find out about the author though.
