Anathema

Given Anathema's gradual transformation from doom metal merchants to sophisticated prog rockers over the course of many personnel changes since the mid-'90s, an album like Falling Deeper was a logical conceit. The band first revisited select moments from its catalog on the unplugged offering Hindsight in 2008. For some, it foretold the end. Then the band surprised many by returning in 2010 with new ideas and a renewed sense of purpose on the musically and sonically expansive – yet utterly accessible – We're Here Because We're Here, which drew raves from critics and fans alike.

A very misleading title, seeing as this collection merely explores Anathema's quieter, more reflective side (i.e., atmospheric keyboard or acoustic guitar-driven numbers which comprised the exceptions rather than the norm on the band's albums). The norm, of course, would be the Liverpool act's core styles: doom/death in the early days, modern prog rock in the later – both of which are saved for representation on the following year's Resonance, Vol. 2.

Another exquisite package from Music Video Distributors the Anathema disc includes websites, logo, photo gallery, interview, bonus video and desktop images. The 14 concert tracks are displayed with the index so the Pink Floyd fans can jump right to the final track of "Comfortably Numb." As Floyd cover bands are proliferating, it's kind of nice to hear an actual group that is its own entity do a cover along with their other material. And they do a nice rock & roll job on it, not to mention the fact that their music runs a sort of parallel to big Pink. The four-page booklet doesn't add much, it's just a slick little extra. But the concert footage is wonderfully filmed and the sound is delightfully eerie. The main concert was recorded live in March of 2006 at the Metalmania Festival.

Anathema in every album search for a different sound, with "A Fine Day To Exit" they try to combine Pink Floyd with Radiohead and alt rock in general.

Anathema will return in April with Weather Systems, their brand new studio album. Weather Systems is the follow-up to 2010’s We’re Here Because We’re Here, which has been featured prominently in numerous end-of-year polls and the producer, Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree), has described it as ”definitely among the best albums I’ve ever had the pleasure to work on.”
