According to Vincent Cavanagh's Twitter (http://twitter.com/VincentCavanagh) new Anathema's Album is being mastered. Let's hope the long wait is about to end! (And let's hope it's about the actual new album, and not some best-of, live or acoustic-miscellaneous) |

I would like to hear your opinions on this. I feel that Anathema have lost completely their inspiration in composing after Judgement. I found the last two studio releases quite boring and ''flat''. Excuse my pessimism, but based on the few single tracks they have released since then, I do not see this pattern changing. Any thoughts? |

The 3 songs I heard from their website (3 years ago) were in the same direction as A natural disaster, so I think there will be a prosecution in this mood. But unlike you, I think that A natural disaster is an excellent album, origina, deep, touching and emotional - unlike Fine day to exit, which I find flat as you say. I'm quite optimist - Steven Wilson also should be the producer, and Douglas Cameron's female voice should be a steady member of the line up in all tracks. Let's see. I just add that 6 years is too much a long time, and disappointment will be very easy to get. |

I've only got A Fine Day To Exit, but I'll consider getting this one (and perhaps ordering it with Judgement) sometime. Thanks for the heads up  -------------

I agree to a certain extent. I'd say "Judgement" is their most gripping album indeed, but I think "A Fine Day To Exit" is their best musical achievement. From then on it sure went downwards. The fact that it's 7 years since the last studio album is a bad sign as well. I know they've had problems finding a label but that has never stopped other artist from continuing to write music. So the whole wait indicates a diminishing inspiration and motivation. In other words, I'm not expecting much  |

Sorry, I meant LEE DOUGLAS, that's the correct name of the female singer  |

Here we are, at last! Anathema's new album will be out on 31st May The title will be "We're here because we're here". I don't know if that's a Rush quote (from Roll the Bones) but the title seems coherent ;-) Details on their website: http://www.anathema.ws |

Let's hope they put a bit of bite back into it. |
