Cathedral is a doom metal band formed in late 1989, when founder members Lee Dorrian (ex-Napalm Death) and Mark "Griff" Griffiths were discussing their love of bands like Trouble, Pentagram, Black Sabbath, St. Vitus, Melvins, and Candlemass. The setting was at a Carcass show in Cardiff, where Griff was roadie and in charge off the projections of gore for that band. After more than several beers the pair came to the conclusion that they should form a band in the vein of their heroes and thus the idea was born. They started out as slow and Heavy Traditional doom with slightly harsh vocals on their debut, This style is mentioned as having a strong influence on Death/Doom. After that they started going in the Psychedelic/Stoner direction.
