ANATHEMA hail from the central region of Liverpool, forming
as a Heavy Metal Five piece in the summer of 1990.
Originally under the name of 'PAGAN ANGEL' their strong
sound soon formed into the heavy vein of classic Doom
Metal, with a huge background of influences. In November
1990, they entered a local studio to lay down their first
demo, mystically titled 'AN ILIAD OF WOES'.
With the release of the demo in January of 1991, they
decided to make the name change to ANATHEMA, which
originates from a quotation in the bible, meaning a curse

------ About the song Inner Silence performed by Anathema
I loved this song the moment i listened it.
Perfect to be with someone who understands the music that this band offers as Doom Metal but also on a deeper level, where voice and instruments performs something deep, intense and very close to a musical orgams.

------ About the song A Simple Mistake performed by Anathema
of course they are Anathema and yes they are moving to a new phase and I guess this song is anti love and they are still on the dark depressive side, its not moving on to a better way or getting better.
Anathema can always put me in a very black mood filled with my own smell

------ About the song Lost Control performed by Anathema
just out of intrest is this song and forgotten hopes also by antathema linked because it seems like it is 2 sides of the story or something for example it says 'has left me with a chemical dependancy' and the first lines of forgotten hopes are, 'hey you, rotting in your alcoholic shell' also it says 'do you wonder why i perfer to be alone' whereas FH says 'Do you ever wonder why you were left alone' it feels like the 2 songs are almost 2 people arguing one person saying it is the others fault and the other is denying it saying you did it to your self. or is that just me xD

------ About the song Suicide Veil performed by Anathema
Don't be fools, it is not for songs like this that people commit suicide. If that was the case, then all philosophers and psychologists are causing with their theories massive suicides.
Art and all imaginative creation is a way to express what we is felt by humans, what intrigue us. It is a way to explore the black holes of the mind.

------ About the song Are You There? performed by Anathema
this is one of the strangest songs i've ever heard emotionally though. when i'm happy, it makes me sad because of the lyrics, but when i'm sad it makes me happy cause of the acoustic guitar (i'm talking about the hindsight version obviously) and the whole mood of the song. just love it, perfect in any way.
temporary peace | Reviewer: abby
------ About the song Temporary Peace performed by Anathema
the title gives you the interlude for the song, and while listening it, I get that 'temporary peace', while thinking of the only one person that can give me that, feeling like he is with me, tough he isn't. It is a great song from a great band.....
This song is a Prog-Rock-Monster...
About 8 Minutes of intense experience.
At this time I listened to it about 15 times in a row (no end at sight).
My only problem with it is that I don't if it's Porcupine Tree or Anathema.
But all the rest is pure pleasure.
I'd like to have more songs like this.

Thank you Anathema, thank you for all the music you gave to this world. And thank you for this flawless jewel on the music sky. Remindes me how I was sitting on the shores of Habana with the dawn and listening to the symphony of the waves and this song on my mind. And suddenly everything that bothered me was long gone, far in the distance and there was just me, the sea and the waking city. Best moments. Cheers!

------ About artist/band Anathema
about this band all I can say is that there is no band more balanced and strong in music. I really can not mention any week point, because there is no weakness! but I as a fan, feel pity that such a band did not continue after 'A fine day to exit' and although I feel pity that they do not pay much attention to their live shows and do not show up in medias. I just should add anathema with perfect vioce of danny boils my blood! their unique music perfectly cover their fantastic lyrics.
thanks Nima

Absolutley Amazing Song by Anathema | Reviewer: Wendy S.
------ About the song Release performed by Anathema
I first heard this on an Asleep By Dawn compilation. It starts out slow and you think it's going to be a ballad, but then in the middle it starts to really ROCK. It really is a full, rich song brimming with feeling. This is one of my favorite songs of all time! The lyric "face down I just break down when I see you cry.. all the time" is just an awesome line... then the music hooks you for life!
I think one of the best songs I've heard shortly | Reviewer: Javier
------ About the song One Last Goodbye performed by Anathema
I have only a doubt... this song refers to the death of a lover, don't it? First time I heard it I thought it was a sad lover regreting of break him/her relationship... but I'm not sure what it means actually...
my crappy review | Reviewer: haki
------ About the song A Simple Mistake performed by Anathema
not certainly not one of there best but it does point us in the direction that there headed anathema is trying diferent things witht their new songs, they are leaving behind the darker more depressive lyrics of the past and are talking about moving on and getting better. a new thing for them and im sure there fans will love as always. me on the other hand likes the older ones but they my suicidal mind and depressive state ive been in since I was 9
