My Dying Bride - Hollow Cathedra
Review by Chris Wooden
My Dying Bride's latest album, Hollow Cathedra, is a haunting and powerful addition to their discography. The band's signature blend of gothic and doom metal is on full display here, with soaring guitars, thunderous drums, and gut-wrenching vocals.
The album opens with the epic "The Solace," which sets the tone for the rest of the record with its brooding atmosphere and crushing riffs. From there, the band takes the listener on a journey through dark, emotionally charged tracks like "Tired of Tears" and "The Long Black Land."
One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Old Earth," which features hauntingly beautiful violin and piano melodies that add an extra layer of depth to the already powerful music. Another highlight is "Your Broken Shore," which showcases frontman Aaron Stainthorpe's incredible vocal range and emotional delivery.

I first heard MDB...back to 1995 ''The Cry of Mankind''..from the album The Angel and the dark river. Since then I have been impressed...
Though broken, her twisted finger drew my whole name.
Her shoulder of beauty, heavy and corrupt with shame.
Tired waves crash upon the dead shore of her pale flesh.
That woman of cruelty is the enemy of my God.
The terror in her eyes was beautiful unto me.
The thoughtless steel in my hand was a gift and fee.
I moved her into the sun, so pure and so free.
Thanks MDB for this awesome new single
