Cathedral - The Guessing Game (2CD)

SKU NB2276-2
So here is why Cathedral is my favorite doom metal band. Vocalist Lee Dorrian (also the founder of Rise Above Records) is deeply enamored of early 70s British proto-prog and psychedelic folk. So am I. He loves that damn Mellotron. So do I. On their new 2CD set we get a guest vocal appearance from Alison O'Donnell of the holy Mellow Candle. Still the same old slabs of Sabbath inspired doom but with lots of those prog and psych touches to keep me enthralled from beginning to end.

Every once and a while, I completely disagree on an album with the esteemed Mr. Golden. This is probably the one for 2010. I hear all the Sabbath-like doomy stuff, albeit nowhere as imaginative or creative as Sabbath, but the vocals are completely devoid of melody. Mostly, it's just the dude talking in a tough tone. It's almost laughable. Not my cup of tea. Leyth
