I started with their first album "Death Penalty", and then checked out their 2nd "Friends of Hell" - I think Death Penalty is a little better though. Really good stuff though, classic NWOBHM.

I've heard people compare them to cathedral, candlemass, and the 2nd wave of doom metal. Have I been mislead?

Eh...they aren't as epic as Candlemass or as trippy as Cathedral, they are very influential in the doom metal genre though, I think mainly due to their likeness to Black Sabbath.
