Anathema have long since abandoned their trademark style and their current eclecticism is as much of a trait as it is a fault. Willingness to experiment and grow as a band is, of course, always praise-worthy; however, Anathema have a distinct stench about them - the unmistakable, shiver-inducing stench of being a follower.

Worst anathema album for me.I don't know why but I think that is an album with no pasion. I have listen this album many times but still I have the same opinion. It's like I listen to Coldplay or U2. I love them but , ok , I just don't like this album. And I hate when they say 'this is our best album'..  Eternity ? Silent Enigma ? Alternative 4 ? Judgement ?Weather systems is better for me. ( the lost child is one of the best song of their carrer in my opinion)

Written by Slyfang on 03.06.2010 at 17:45 For me 'real' anathema is all the albums from serenades to a natural disaster. I don't care if they are heavy or not. But whbwh is all about 'atmosphere' and nothing more! After 7 years of waiting I expected something much better!

Written by Slyfang on 17.10.2012 at 20:34 No. I don't! I'm just saying that this album is just to relax with the atmosphere that turns out! It's background music! And the lyrics ... 'all that I know is I love you , yes I love you!' They know how to write epic lyrics but the lyrics of this album are bad for me. I don't understand your enervation. We just say our opinion about an album!

Written by Elyar S. on 10.06.2010 at 19:39 Agree!!! I remember when they used to write awesome lyrics..huge poetry!They have great love songs with great lyrics (angelica , are you there , inner silence etc. For me, 'inner SIlence' is a perfect love poem!) but 'thin air' ? What a joke.. 'All that I know is I love you , yes I love you '

I don't think it's a joke at all. It is just something different. If you like "Inner Silence" go listen to Alternative 4. Change doesn't always need to be so painful

Beautiful, but pretty much 'chill-out' listening music and little bit boring as well.

The fact that this album and "A Fine Day To Exit" have the same rating is a bit troubling to me.

Good start but gets boring when nearing the end.

Re-listened. Summernight Horizon is amazing. Thin Air and Everything are also great songs. I still think the album gets noticeably weaker when nearing its end.

Written by JOPE OF STEELE on 18.05.2020 at 20:49 That is definitely the case. I like the songs you mention but my highlights here are Dreaming Light and Angels walk among us. 7.5 overall, one of their weaker albums.

Written by RaduP on 16.07.2015 at 21:40 I like this one more than A Fine Day To Exit.
