20 Year Anniversary Party is a live DVD by Candlemass. The show was shot live on 31 March 2007 at Kolingsborg in Stockholm, Sweden. To make the experience more unique the show also hosted a series of different vocalists and a setlist spanning their whole career at the time.
Background[]
Candlemass announced a 20th anniversary set was in the works, likely to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their first album rather than when the band formed in 1984. However with the departure of Messiah Marcolin, this special show would be delayed until 31 March 2007.
The set featured, along with guests, Candlemass vocalists from the past, present and future all performing various songs from their eras. The DVD mainly promoted three vocalists: Thomas Vikström (Vocalist on Chapter VI) in his first appearance with the band since 1994, Robert Lowe in what essentially was an introduction to the audience as the new vocalist at the time and original vocalist Johan Längquist (Vocalist on Epicus Doomicus Metallicus) in what would be his first ever live performance with the band. Of all the Candlemass singers only Björn Flodkvist and Messiah Marcolin were not present for this performance.
