Album Notes & Community Reviews
'Forest of Equilibrium' is a defining, crushingly slow monument of British doom metal that stood in stark contrast to the era's obsession with extreme speed. Cathedral unleashes incredibly heavy, funereal guitar dirges and raw, agonizing vocals to craft a deeply somber and lethargic dark fantasy.
