"Solar Lovers" is the second full length album by the Dutch doom metal band Celestial Season. It was released on Displeased Records in 1995. The My Dying Bride influences diminished on this, although the violins are still prominent on the album; the band incorporated some more stoner influences here. This was the last album on which they played doom metal and featured death grunts. The succeeding albums were stoner rock albums.
