| _________________________________ [Sep 27,2007 10:38pm - Ryan_M ""] I started with their first album "Death Penalty", and then checked out their 2nd "Friends of Hell" - I think Death Penalty is a little better though. Really good stuff though, classic NWOBHM. |

| _____________________________________ [Sep 27,2007 10:50pm - vein_water ""] the only release I have by Cathedral are "Forest of Equilibrium", "Ethereal Mirror" and "Carnivale Bizzare" |

Eh...they aren't as epic as Candlemass or as trippy as Cathedral, they are very influential in the doom metal genre though, I think mainly due to their likeness to Black Sabbath. |
