In 2001 ultra-chic doom/black label, Southern Lord released this beautiful single by Cathedral. I shouldn't have to give you the dirt on Cathedral, either you know 'em or you don't, either you love them or you don't, it's just that simple. The two songs presented here were recorded during the Endtyme sessions with Billy Anderson at the ol' mixing desk. The cover image is from La Noche de las gaviotas, the 1975 Spanish horror movie directed by Armando de Ossorio. The A side, "Gargoylian" is typical Cathedral but the B side, "Earth in The Grip of a Skeletal Hand," has them doing a sort of Discharge thing. This was released in a run of 2000 copies with the 100 on blue vinyl and 100 on gold vinyl. Enjoy.
