OCEAN WITHOUT A SHORE

Great to see you back Daniel Cavanagh, and what a way to do it. Anyone who loves later era Anathema, in particular its namesake, will adore this. Great song writing (as always), musicianship and as emotive as ever. I truly hope the band tour this and play it in full. Mr Cavanagh deserves far more recognition than he gets both as a songwriter and as a guitarist, and should be lauded as one of Liverpool's greatest ever musicians which is high praise indeed. Essential stuff from start to finish and packed full of ear worms. DC's struggles are widely known, and reflected in the album title, and I hope this is the first of many new great things to come for him and the band.
