The Last Spire is the tenth and final studio album by British doom metal band Cathedral. Intended by the band as their farewell album, it was released in April 2013 through Rise Above Records and Metal Blade Records.
The album was praised for returning the band to its doom roots, with Nick Green of Decibel Magazine observing that "few bands get to write their own epitaphs in such vivid, exacting terms".
