More about 'We're Here Because We're Here'
After seven years of silence, Anathema returned in 2010 with their most emotionally charged and spiritually profound work to date."We're Here Because We're Here" was awarded "Prog Album of the Year" by Classic Rock magazine, who described it as "a flawless, life-affirming comeback and a gold-plated contender for album of the year," and was acclaimed as a multi-coloured, multi-layered work of unbridled emotion, passion and intensity.The most easily recognized change is the increased emphasis on piano, which is the leading instrument on most songs, but this isn't your typical mainstream rock fare -Chris Martin, let alone the horde of his mainstream rock imitators, can never rival the immense emotional charge of Anathema's music.The album was mixed by Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree, adding another layer of sonic brilliance to the proceedings.The cathartic effect is further amplified by the music's elaborate but clear arrangements, with pianos, strings, shivering vocals, and quietly wailing guitars blending together into elegant and dramatic songs with a rich sound of mini-symphonies, with the mood tethering on the brink of despair, but always resolving into optimism or at least dreamy, elegiac resignation. Tracks like "Dreaming Light" and "Angels Walk Among Us" (featuring Ville Valo) showcase the band's ability to craftbeyond beautifulcompositions that speak directly to the soul.Anathema tackle the theme of spirituality in their appropriately titled 2010 release, and it's fascinating to hear how it inspires artists both musically and lyrically. This isAnathema's most mature and complex effort to date, proving that progressive music can still touch hearts and change lives.
