Professional bootlegs?

I'm going to remove this section until sources justifying notability are provided. Lists of bootlegs are nearly always unencyclopedic, owing to being unverifiable or self-published sources. I'm not even sure what is meant by "professional bootleg". Blackmetalbaz (talk) 17:21, 15 November 2008 (UTC)

1989-2011?

i'm going to change the years active from 1989-2011 to 1989-2012 because as the article says, "They will record one last album and hope to release it in 2012" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.48.153.160 (talk) 18:50, 21 February 2011 (UTC) by the way, 1989-2011/2012 is 'over two decades' but nowhere near 'nearly three decades' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.66.114.168 (talk) 08:02, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

Genre

Nowhere is presented that Cathedral would be defined as "stoner rock". Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 17:49, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Conflicting statements

In the section "Style" (https://en.wikipedia.org/Cathedral_(band)#Style), it is said that:

"These albums included the "inspired" and "quirky" but "uneven" The Garden of Unearthly Delights, the double-disc The Guessing Game, which was touted as the "most psychedelic, progressive material in the band's entire catalog" to the "true doom" of the band's finale, The Last Spire."

However, in the very next paragraph it is said that:

"The Guessing Game represented another development in the band's sound, with more progressive influences coming to the forefront."

How can the musical influences of one and same album be conflicting within as single section? On one hand it is described as "psychedelic", on the other "progressive". This awaits for correction in the article. Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 18:09, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

The fact that an album, or a particular section of music, contains more than one influence is not a conflicting statement - it is, quite simply, a statement indicating that multiple influences can either be discerned or were cited by the band. As the statement in question is properly sourced, I will be reverting your good faith edits. That said, this page could certainly use more elaboration, so I thank you for your attention to it.
