Originally released in 2004, this was the debut by a unique voice of avant-country, San Diego's Castanets. Backed by haunting, angelic voices and recorded mostly in a secluded cabin in the northern California woodlands, Cathedral illuminates the dark architecture where faith and doubt clash in an often-ambiguous search for the divine. Castanets create music that is epic and inspiring. From somber love ballads to haunted tales of frustrated redemption, the delivery is potent and devoid of cliché or sentimentalism. Echoes of The Velvet Underground, No Neck Blues Band and the delta blues harness a strain of ancient Americana that even today pulses through a subdivided and paved landscape.
