The Gathering, The West Pole

Netherlands, 2009.

When Anneke van Giersbergen left in 2007, I thought The Gathering's music would be resigned to monotony. I was fortunately wrong as their ninth album demonstrates that they can still produce an interesting and atmospheric alternative rock. In addition, Silje Wergeland's melodic voice is surprisingly delightful.
