Anathema – We're Here Because We're Here

2020 UK 2LP Gatefold.

2010’s ‘We’re Here Because We’re Here’ truly cemented the bands’ stature as world-beating post-progressive kings... A multi-coloured, multi-layered work of unbridled emotion, passion & intensity, ‘We're Here Because We're Here’ was acclaimed across the globe.

“Any musical growth we have achieved has been a natural process,” says lead songwriter Daniel Cavanagh. “From our early bass player Duncan Patterson’s Pink Floyd-leanings onwards, we’ve never really looked back. We feel lucky to have developed into a writing team that at times can feel telepathic. Oh & by the way – if we wanted to sell out, we would never have changed at all.”

Anathema have been at the forefront of the UK rock/metal movement for many years. They began their journey as pioneers of melodic heavy music, influencing a myriad of bands to follow them, before outgrowing all genres & limitations as they fearlessly explored new territory & new ways to express feeling through sound.
