More about 'Weather Systems'

Anathema's ninth studio album "Weather Systems" dropped in April 2012, and man, what a journey this turned out to be!As a "rock" band, Weather Systems really does represent the apex of Anathema's career, as well as probably the apex of modern "progressive" or "art" rock. Coming off the success of "We're Here Because We're Here", the Liverpool legends knew they had"a lot to live up to"- and boy did they deliver something special.The album was recorded in Liverpool, North Wales and Oslo, each place significant to Anathema's past, present and future. The record was produced by band members Vincent Cavanagh and Daniel Cavanagh, as well as Christer-André Cederberg. What's fascinating isit is the first album of the band to not feature a full-time keyboardist since Judgement in 1999; instead, keyboard duties were shared between Vincent and Daniel Cavanagh, and drummer John Douglas. The result?The music on the album is atmospheric and semi-progressive rock with very few nods toward metal. The tracks are generally slow building, going from mellow beautiful sections into louder grand climaxes.Weather Systems treads closely in the footprints of WAHBWAH, but is a much more assured and convincing album. In fact, Weather Systems follows nearly exactly the same template as WAHBWAH, with songs that are based on big, uplifting melodies that unfurl slowly through long crescendos to culminate with cathartic moments of emotional intensity.

For fans of:
Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson, Radiohead, Pink Floyd and Sigur Rós
