From http://www.bravewords.com/news/177202 :
"Liverpool, England-based atmospheric rockers ANATHEMA will return in April with Weather Systems, their brand new studio album. Weather Systems is the follow-up to 2010s 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 Ive ever had the pleasure to work on.''
The bar for Weather Systems has been set pretty high, but Daniel Cavanagh from the band is certain that the album will exceed these lofty expectations, stating, "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."
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. "
Weather Systems will be available on The End Records on April 24th. The album artwork can be seen below:
