Purple Wonderland (12:13): Since love has come to me Since then you've walked away Life is a mystery The roses on my coffin Are the dreams you gave to me Love is blind And all the flowers died for you This land so black, so fair for you Here in this wonderland Purple the ecstasy Mist enticing, penetrating Lust I inhale Cold is the night today Darker than months of May Love is blind Your arms where a hearse for me Desire driving me Into this grave And all the bells shall ring for you Transparent love we shall see through Sleep in this wonderland Of purple ecstasy Mist enticing, penetrating Lust I inhale Fear not the wind It's telling a tale Into the whitest night We slip away... ...Not dead enough to be alive 5.

Cathedral Impresionante , the best fantástic , tengo 50 años cuando escuché cathedral por primera vez quede sorprendido allá por los 20 años , no hay palabras para suficientes para decir ... Simplemente son los mejores 👍
Almost feels like Type O Negative was in the studio for recording this one. What a wild, strange side of Cathedral. Truly one of the most diverse doom metal bands of all time.
Maybe simular natural low vocal sound but I feel a much different delivery and vibe. I tend to like the forest of equilibrium vocal vibe best for Cathedral.
Awesome band. Please consider that this just might be their worst collection of songs out of their whole catalog. And it’s STILL better than most other efforts, of any genre. I could start and then go on too long, maybe 15 plus songs with riffs and hooks and feel so great that even the greatest rock bands would struggle to be so consistent for so long and with so many songs. I mean jeez, I only like about 8 Rush songs and maybe 4 Yes songs. Even Sabbath was as pro-rifflick. Yeah just made that one up. Copyright (today).
