Cathedral - The Guessing Game

Review by Ирина Ледовских

The Guessing Game by Cathedral is a masterpiece that showcases the band's musical prowess and creativity. The album features a unique blend of doom metal, psychedelic rock, and progressive rock, creating a sound that is both heavy and intricate. The album is a double disc, with each disc offering a different experience. The first disc is more straightforward and heavy, while the second disc is more experimental and psychedelic.

The album begins with the track "Immaculate Misconception," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The track is heavy and intense, with powerful vocals and intricate guitar riffs. The album then takes a turn with the track "Funeral of Dreams," which is a slower, more atmospheric track that showcases the band's ability to create a haunting and atmospheric sound.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Journeys into Jade," which is a 10-minute epic that features a variety of different musical styles and moods. The track starts off slow and atmospheric, before transitioning into a heavy and intense section. The track then takes another turn, with a psychedelic section that features trippy guitar solos and a hypnotic rhythm section.

About Cathedral

last ned album Cathedral - The Guessing Game

Formed: 1989 - Coventry, England. UK doom-metal band. The band was formed by vocalist Lee Dorrian and guitarist (and later bassist) Mark Griffiths, who met at a show and discovered they both shared a love of doom metal. Cathedral's sound progressed gradually from incredibly slow, dirge-like lengthy arrangements on their debut album to Black Sabbath inspired heavy metal. The band's early years was fraught with membership changes but Dorrian and co-founding guitarist Garry Jennings remained with the band throughout their entire run. In 2013, after 24 years years together, Dorrian and Jennings put the band to rest.
