I'm not into trash. But after reading intriguing reviews & hearing a sample,
Hurrah!!!  A convert!  Now go and buy the others, but start with Eternity
which is absolutley fabulous and features a Roy Harper appearance and cover
version.  Everything apres Pentecost III is a must, and even the earlier
more metallic ceedees are worth cjhecking out.


>>>>>>>>>I went ahead and bought Anathema's latest album. It's... jaw
dropping. I
just don't have any words for it. Quite simply, one of the best albums I've
ever heard.

There are bits of Pink Floyd in it, and Radiohead, and Stabbing Westward,
and Hogarth's Marillion... Mix all that together, and you still won't have
an accurate picture. They have crafted a new style, unique, out of all these
influences. It's just grand. I'm definitely impressed.

Anyway. Had to share :-)

Can only recommend this. Strongly.

It's called "A fine day to exit" and it's out on the "Music For Nations"
label.
