Cathedral is one of the most prominent representatives of the stoner metal genre, especially popular in the 90s of the last century. The group was formed in 1989 by representatives of punk, doom and thrash metal culture in the UK, Coventry. The band was founded by Dorrian Lee (vocals), Mark Griffiths (bass) and Jennings Harry (drums and backing vocals).

All these musicians are completely different in character and manner of performance, but, nevertheless, they were united by their love for the heavy style of music. The group records songs in a peculiar style, the tempo of the performance is slow, without unnecessary arrangements, a lot of attention is paid to the vocals, filled with a sense of doom, fear and despair. The style of music of the Cathedral group combines several directions at once - rock with elements of blues and doom metal. Popularity and fame came to the band after the presentation of their first studio album in 1991 called Forest of Equilibrium. Nowadays, the compositions from this album are considered classics of heavy music.

As soon as Cathedral's songs became available for rotation, they started talking about them as an updated version of the band Black Sabbath, which is considered the ancestor of doom metal. In support of his album, the first film with Cathedral, Ebony Tears, was shot. The group first worked with the record company Earache Records, which was managed by Lee. In 1992, the musical group signed a contract with the media company Columbia Records, but their union did not last even two years.

It is worth noting that the band members are no less unique, as are their lyrics, everyone prefers the gothic style of clothing and dark makeup. The main competitors of the band are considered to be the Swedish band Candlemass, which has also been performing for a long time in a similar musical style. The team has 10 full-length studio albums, the last one was presented in 2013 under the name The Last Spire. After the release of this sit, the Cathedral group officially ended their existence. The most popular films from Cathedral were Autumn Twilight, Ride, Stained Glass Horizon, Black Sunday and Tower Of Silence.
