The Gathering Work On 2 Albums 2008-05-12 by Trey STAFF | 8 Comments | Drummer Hans Rutten of Holland's rock outfit The Gathering has issued the following update:
"Dear all, sorry it has been a while since you've heard from us. We apologize for this. It actually means that we have been really busy with the band.
"During the last couple of months we created a lot of new ideas that lead to the first songs of our upcoming CD. Yes, we are working on a new album! Or actually, two new albums!
"Many of our new songs are very rock and guitar orientated and will end up on a heavy rock album for sure. The second album will be filled with more 'shoe gaze,' dreamy tracks.
"We can imagine if you are very curious about new vocalists. Currently, we are working with several. It feels very refreshing and interesting to work with different voices and it adds beautiful new colours to our music. Names will be presented as soon as our ideas become more concrete.
"As promised you will hear new material by the end of this year. The release of our new album is planned for spring 2009."

Looking forward to this and the upcoming Agua de Annique album too.
| | | I was shocked to see it was you who posted this. And I'm interested to hear this "heavy rock" album, I thought they had forgotten what that was. As for the Agua, has that been announced already?
| | | Why would you be shocked? I like this band, I just wasn't too impressed with their last album. Also, yes, the new Agua album has been announced already (I posted that news too a few weeks or so ago). Here is the link:

| | | Now this is really good news. I hope the new vocalist works well with them.
| | | I have doubts about The Gathering post Anneke...she had the absolute perfect voice for the music. However, I'm sure the group can pull something off. And then maybe Agua could write a more interesting album...their's was good, but it also sounded something that The Gathering would put out, albeit not as interesting.

Why would you be shocked?
Clearly my sarcasm was not obvious enough; I basically expect any Gathering/Anneke news to be posted by you, Mr. Fister.
I'm not sure if I'm more excited for new Gathering or Agua though, Air was better than Home by a mile, but these multiple vocalists could be nice.

| | | Yeah, as soon as I re-read your first post the sarcasm was glaringly obvious. I agree with the multiple vocalist thing, it could give them room to do a lot of stuff.
| | | I am excited and scared.
The Gathering's music was always interesting, and they never once let me down.
But new vocalists worries me, Anneke will be hard to match.
