CATHEDRAL To Release 'Anniversary' Double-Disc Live Album ...

In conjunction with Rise Above Records, Metal Blade will release the double-disc live album "Anniversary" from U.K. mainstays and international cult act CATHEDRAL on November 21. According to a press release, "Anniversary" captures CATHEDRAL in all their raw and live glory and marks the first official live album to be ever released by the doom metal legends. Recorded live in London, 2010, Disc 1 features "Forest Of Equilibrium" in its entirety, delivered impeccably by the original lineup of Lee Dorrian on vocals, Garry Jennings and Adam Lehan on guitar, Mark Griffiths on bass and Mike Smail on drums. Disc 2 is a greatest-hits set courtesy of the long-lasting lineup featuring Leo Smee (bass) and Brian Dixon (drums) alongside Dorrian and Jennings.

Commented Dorrian on the band's first-ever live album and the impending final live show: "The release of 'Anniversary' is both exciting and sad for us. Exciting, as it is the first-ever official CATHEDRAL live album, recorded at our 20th-anniversary show on December 3rd in London last year, where we reunited with our original lineup and performed the entirety of or debut album, 'Forest Of Equilibrium', for the first (and last) time ever. Sad, because December the 3rd this year will be the night we perform our last show ever, before calling it a day as a live band. So more than anything, we would like to dedicate 'Anniversary' to everyone who has followed and supported CATHEDRAL over the years. Your support really means and has meant the world to us. Thanks and stay heavy!"
