After releasing ten full-length albums and touring extensively for over two decades, Cathedral broke up after the release of The Last Spire in 2013.

'Say You Will' is the seventeenth and final studio album by Fleetwood Mac. It followed 1995's Time and was their first album since 1970 without vocalist/keyboardist Christine McVie as a full member following her departure in 1998, although she participated in some songs as a guest musician. Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks shared keyboard duties throughout the album. It was the first studio Fleetwood Mac album to peak in the top three in the U.S. since 1982's Mirage.

Smells Like Children

Marilyn Manson
Smells Like Children

[E.P.]
24 October 1995
Alternative Rock

'Smells Like Children' is the first E.P. by Marilyn Manson. Although referred to as an E.P., it is actually over 50 minutes in length. Produced by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, it represents an era of the band full of drugs, abuses, tours, sound experiments, and references to the Child Catcher, a villain from the 1968 musical film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The E.P. was initially proposed to strictly be a remix single for 'Dope Hat', but various contributions by engineer and Skinny Puppy producer Dave Ogilvie, Nine Inch Nails live keyboardist Charlie Clouser, and new material by the band resulted in an eclectic and unusual combination of material.

Marilyn Manson is an American rock band formed by namesake lead singer Marilyn Manson and guitarist Daisy Berkowitz in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 1989. Originally named Marilyn Manson & The Spooky Kids, they gained a local cult following in South Florida in the early 1990s with their theatrical live performances. In 1993, they were the first act signed to Trent Reznor's Nothing Records label. Until 1996, the name of each member was created by combining the first name of a female sex symbol and the last name of a male serial killer-for example, Marilyn Monroe and Charles Manson. Their lineup has changed between many of their album releases; the eponymous lead singer is the only remaining original member.

Time

[Album]
10 October 1995
Classic Rock

'Time' is the sixteenth studio album by Fleetwood Mac. This album features a unique lineup for the band, including the addition of country vocalist Bekka Bramlett (daughter of Delaney And Bonnie) and former Traffic guitarist Dave Mason. It was the second album released after the departure of Lindsey Buckingham in 1987 (although he makes an appearance as a backing vocalist on one track), and the only Fleetwood Mac album since 1974's Heroes Are Hard To Find to not feature any contribution from Stevie Nicks. Additionally, it is the final Fleetwood Mac studio album to feature Christine McVie as an official member. The album received unfavorable reviews from critics and was a commercial disappointment, failing to chart in the U.S. and peaking at number 47 in the U.K. The band disbanded soon after the release, although they reunited a few years later with Nicks and Buckingham for the release of The Dance (1997).

Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band formed in London in 1967 by ex-Bluesbreakers members guitarist and singer Peter Green and drummer Mick Fleetwood. Primarily a British blues band in their early years, the band achieved their first U.K. number one single in 1968 with the instrumental 'Albatross'.

The band also featured former Scorpions guitarist and The Michael Schenker Group (MSG) founder Michael Schenker, who was a member of UFO from 1973 to 1978 and rejoined the band sporadically between 1993 and 2003, when Moore replaced him.
