This is for horror fans! Cathedral’s story is captivating and the art pulls you in like a movie. That’s not all, play the album while taking in the art and it is mind blowing! 

What can I say about the album – its horror suspense with rock. It’s well put together. This is next level immersion for graphic novels. 

The novel takes you in with the opening page of a cathedral at night with lightning in the background. Then we get a zoomed in image of an eye on the stained glass. A full-on art panel of police cars in the rain in front. A female stepping out of the car, a cop walks up to her and says “we have an officer down” ….and boom the roller coaster ride has begun.

This gave me “Mouth of Madness” with “The Thing” vibes. You get blood and gore with suspense. Horror fans need to go out and get this. I can see this made into an 8-episode series for streaming. I will be adding this to my collection!
