Considering my ratings, I believe my fave Gathering albums are the Souvenirs-Home stretch and maybe even this one. It's been some time since I've listened to their discography, though, so I might think otherwise today. I mostly started loving their stuff when they delved into this trip-rock style they fashioned until today.

anat really!!!?? I'm 100% of the opposite opinion, looooooooooooooove Attie's production.



And that's a very lovely pick Krpa, my fave definitely is How To Measure A Planet? (fave album of all time if I had to pick one), but Souvenirs and Home aren't far behind, and Mandylion and Nighttime Birds aren't far behind those.

I keep listening to this, can envisage a potential bump on the cards

Which leads me to believe I may be able to do similar things with some of their back catalogue, given enough time...

Exciting!

I like this more than if then and disclosure but it doesn't touch their classic releases

I haven't heard Disclosure yet.

The reason I made that declaration was the fact I have all 3 of their '4.1s' 3.5d, thinking there's some bump potential amongst that lot. There has to be, right?

"I like this more than if then and disclosure but it doesn't touch their classic releases" I think I agree, although if_then still edges this out. So I kind of but not completely agree.



Demon. Do. It.



Yes.
