The Gathering – Mandylion

Mandylion is the classic third studio album by the Dutch band The Gathering. It was released on August 22, 1995 by Century Media Records. The record is their first album with singer Anneke van Giersbergen.

Mandylion is The Gathering’s best-selling album ever and they even had an unexpected hit in the Netherlands with “Strange Machines”, which received a lot of radio airplay. In the Top2000 of 2021 it even reached number 945!

The album was recorded and mixed at Woodhouse Studios in Hagen, Germany between June 1 and June 16, 1995 under the direction of Siggi Bemm and Waldemar Sorychta. Two of the songs contain quotes from popular culture: “Strange Machines” contains a passage from George Pal’s film version of H.G. Wells’s The Time Machine, and “Sand & Mercury” ends with a recording of J.R.R. Tolkien reading a quote from Simone de Beauvoir.
