Artist Biography For Cathedral

There Is More Than One Artist With This Name. 1 Doom Metal Band From Coventry England. The Group Was Formed In 1989 By Lee Dorrian Formerly Vocalist Of Napalm Death Mark 'Griff' Griffiths A Carcass Roadie And Gary 'Gaz' Jennings Previously A Member Of UK Thrashers Acid Reign . The Band Forged A Link Between Early Doom Metal And A 1990s Extreme Metal Aesthetic Making Doom Slower And Heavier. Their Debut Album Forest Of Equilibrium Is Considered A Classic Of The Genre Though The Band Would Later Add Psychedelic And Progressive Rock Influences And Play In A More Uptempo And Groove-Oriented Fashion. In 1989 Lee Dorrian Left His Former Band Napalm Death Mainly Because He Was Getting Sick Of The Punk Scene And Did Not Like The Death Metal Direction Napalm Death Was Heading Towards. Cathedral Was Formed After Lee Dorrian And Mark Griffiths Met And Discussed Their Love For Doom Bands Like Candlemass Dream Death Pentagram Trouble And Witchfinder General. The Only Original Band Members In The Current Line-Up Are Lee Dorrian And Garry 'Gaz' Jennings On Guitars Although Jennings Did Once Leave The Band In Their Early History Only To Rejoin Shortly Afterwards. After No News From The Band Since They Toured For The Garden Of Unearthly Delights They Played Their First Show In Two Years At Damnation Festival 2008 In Leeds. They Played A New Song And Have Confirmed Dates For 2009 Including Hellfest. The Band Began To Wind Down Their Live Performances In 2012.

Cathedral’s Sound Is Strongly Reminiscent Of Yes’s Relayer Era With Many Qualities Of Gentle Giant. They Are Undoubtedly A Major Influence For The Early 90’s Prog Rock Band Anglagard.
