NEW MID-PRICE EDITION OF THE ACCLAIMED 2014 RELEASE'Another masterclass in supercharged emotional songwriting and fearless sonic curiosity.'The Guardian (5/5)
Anathema have spent most of their career making music that defies description. Formed in the mid 90�s, they have risen to become one of the UK�s most cherished and critically acclaimed rock bands.
With their star rising ever higher, Anathema returned in 2014 with �Distant Satellites�. The new studio album showcased another imperious forward step into the realm of miraculous songwriting. It has proved to be the band�s most widely acclaimed & celebrated record with the likes of The Guardian (UK), Metal Hammer (UK / DE), Kerrang (UK), Classic Rock (UK/DE), Prog Magazine (UK), Aardschok (NL), Rock Hard (DE), Rolling Stone (Aus) heaping great praise on the album.
�Distant Satellites� was recorded at Cederberg Studios in Oslo with favoured producer Christer-Andr� Cederberg. Alongside additional mixing by Grammy Nominated Steven Wilson, Anathema also brought in the legendary services of Dave Stewart (Porcupine Tree, Steven Wilson) to create the new album�s extraordinary orchestral arrangements.
�Distant Satellites� was one of the most celebrated and lauded albums of 2014 and will surely be recognised as their finest album to date. It is a gleaming anthology of beautifully crafted songs, performed with vitality, verve & utmost passion, once again demonstrating the sublime, instinctive song writing talents of the Cavanagh brothers and drummer John Douglas.
A remarkable album that confirms their flexibility and talent for making energetic, expressive, poignant music. Anathema are a special band, determined not to stagnate, and distant satellites is yet another divine release � Prog Magazine (UK)
