Anathema have just announced their brand new studio album and follow up to 2010′s ‘We’re Here Because We’re Here’. The new record is called ‘Weather Systems’ and will be released by Kscope on April 16th 2012!
‘It feels like we are at a creative peak right now, and this album reflects that. Everything from the production to the writing to the performances are a step up from our last album.’ He continues, ‘This is not background music for parties. The music is written to deeply move the listener, to uplift or take the listener to the coldest depths of the soul. We are pleased and proud of the record and we feel that, alongside the best moments of WHBWH, this record contains our very best work so far in what is becoming a long career.’ – Daniel Cavanagh
The intertwining melodic structures of these profoundly beautiful songs are intensely powerful, yet simple. These are songs that will transport the listener closer to the heart of life, that is to say, to the heart of themselves. It is also an album of polarity. The play of opposites; light and shade, birth and death, love and fear. The simple truths of life and loss, hope and strength and darker internal themes are all explored here.
The album was recorded in Liverpool, North Wales and Oslo, each place significant to Anathema past, present and future. The record was produced and mastered by five times Norwegian Grammy nominated Christer-André Cederberg (Animal Alpha, In the Woods…, Drawn), who Daniel has described as ‘a revelation. His calmness and brilliance has helped to bring about the greatest inter-band chemistry that Anathema have experienced together in their career.’ This career stretches back to 1990 when the band formed in Liverpool. Since then the band have embarked on a remarkable musical journey, initially emerging as pioneers of melodic heavy music and continually evolving over the ensuing years, always remaining true to their original goal of creating forward thinking, meaningful, passionate and honest music. |

I only liked two tracks off of the last album. The majority of the record was way too fruity. Would love it if they returned to a "Judgement" type of sound. I'll still be checking this out. |

I agree that Alt4/Judgment was there best era, it was still a decent album though. |

|
Nice Anathema is awesome! |
|
|
This band is horrible now. Haven't liked them since they stopped growling. |
|
|
I love this band, much looking forward to this release |
|
|
I'm not going to lie, but some of vocal harmonies on this album sound like pop country. |
|
|
Really inspired and emotional but one big MEHHHHHH to some of these vocal harmonies. LOL worthy at times. |
|
|
Martina McBride and Vince Gill metal FTW |
|
|
Not as inspired as their previous efforts, but I have to admit that I like this flowery piece of shit. |
