둠메탈이라는 장르는 극단적으로 느리다는 인식이 있지만 이 앨범을 들어보면 꼭 그렇지만도 않다. 물론 천천히 갈때는 블랙사바스의 1집의 생각나기도 하지만 묵직함을 유지한 상태로 미들~하이 템포로 달려주는 파트도 꽤나 많다. 멜랑콜리하면서 요상한 분위기의 리프/멜로디가 마음에 들고 그로울링과 클린의 중간 지점에 포지션을 잡은 Dorrian의 보컬도 인상적이다. 이제보면 꽤나 잘 만든 앨범인데 예전에는 왜 그리 지루하게 느껴졌는지 모르겠다. 88.5점.

Cathedral’s sophomore album is a slight transition from their purely Doomy debut. Never thought I would say this, but the Stoner tinge added here definitely improves the album. The riffs and energy here is awesome, and some tracks, namely the first half, are just great fun. Even so, they retain that Doomy delivery and aesthetic, with interesting lyricism that dances between a... Read More
