It took a while but now it’s (almost) finally here, The West Pole on double vinyl! This record, originally released in 2009, has been out of print on vinyl for over 13 years. It is the first album with new singer Silje Wergeland and contains guest vocals from Marcela Bovio and Anne van den Hoogen. The Gathering’s ninth studio album is perhaps the most varied album from the band’s catalogue, going from up-tempo rock orientated songs like ‘All You Are’ and ‘No One Spoke’ to dreamy, soundscape-like tracks such as ‘No Bird Call’. Above all it is a typical The Gathering album with all the musical ingredients you can expect from this band.
