Release comments
Dutch rock outfit THE GATHERING will release its
long-awaited new album, The West Pole, on May 4 via
the bands own label, Psychonaut Records. More
information is available on THE GATHERINGs official
webshop.
The West Pole will mark the recording debut of THE
GATHERINGs new singer, Silje Wergeland from the
Norwegian band OCTAVIA SPERATI. Drummer Hans Rutten
says, Silje has been the singer of OCTAVIA SPERATI for
eight years, including several other projects. She did
a superb job [on The West Pole]. This album also
includes two very talented guest singers: the Dutch
Anne van den Hoogen and Mexican Marcela Bovio (from
STREAM OF PASSION), and some other guest musicians.
Hans continued, What can we say about The West Pole?
Its a very vital, atmospheric and extravert rock
orientated album, with all the quality and power THE
GATHERING is so famous for, also with many new
elements. The sound is guitar driven, alive and urgent;
a strong and beautifully coloured album with haunting
female vocals. Its produced by guitar player Ren
Rutten and mixed and mastered by Zlaya Hadzich (who
also did the production of Souvenirs) and Ren.
