The Guessing Game

Biography

To paraphrase Nick Drake, time has told us that Cathedral are a rare, rare find. Twenty years time, in fact, since ‘In Memoriam’ first made its crepuscular crawl towards the darker reaches of our consciousness, in which Cathedral have proved themselves to be so much more than the paragons of doom metal they originally resembled. Twenty years, in which they’ve proved themselves to be a band who not… Read more in Amazon's Cathedral Store

3.0 out of 5 stars Short but sweet., December 5, 2005
By 
H3@+h "Over 1500 reviews!" (thanks for the helpful review votes) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hopkins (Audio CD)
I probably wouldn't have picked this disc up, but since i was accused of being the Witchfinder General, I did. It's a simple EP, but the title track is well worth it, and the others I like also. To my ears it's typical light metal, though some call it doom-metal, I guess it does have an overall dark vibe to it. "The Devil's Summit" is the weakest and longest track, it does have horns on it, so what out for that. This is far from being essential, but if you're a fan, or it's dirt cheap, or your name is also Hopkins, give it a shot.

3.0 out of 5 stars Buy it because its Cathedral, December 4, 2003

This review is from: Hopkins (Audio CD)
This is pretty long for an EP, because like both of the other Cathedral albums I own, it's got a very long song on it. I can't complain about any of the songs, but track 5, The Devil's Summit, is pretty bizzare. It's doom/funk complete with Cathedral's trademark guitar tone backed by saxaphone. The album is easily worth the buying just for the title track which is great. Then it has a decent short song in "Fire", then a decent instrumental in "Copper Sunset" track 4 starts out like an 80's New wave song before the doom takes over. Overall it's pretty decent, just make sure you pick it up cheap. It's reccomended so long as it's under $10.
