I haven't heard this yet... Of course I will pick it up at some point here! I wonder how much of a solo Piggy plays on this record?

yah, Souvenirs... it's good.. a bit more electronic than the other ones, but i kinda like it. It's no Mandylion but it's good. Is it out? No idea.
As far as Piggy playing on the record, i dont think it happened, after all. I cant detect him on the record, anyway.

Didn't know they were still around... Only heard 'Always' and that one is probably 10 yrs old already...

'Souvenirs' is already out in some European countries, the Scandinavian release (I live in Finland) should happen next week. I still have no information about Piggy's participating on the songs, but it's a fucking shame if that didn't happen.

A friend of mine has a promo copy. It doesn't mention Piggy on it. I had a quick half listen and couldn't pick him out. Could have been on one of the tracks I didn't hear though. I like the Gathering's recent stuff ('Mandylion' to '...Planet') but on the inital listen I didn't like this one so much. But again, I didn't hear much of it.

At least it's out now here in Holland. Bought the album an hour ago and listening to it right now. I like it thus far. Piggy's not playing on it. That's a shame. The songs are great however. It's quite a dark and atmospheric album. I have to get into it some more.
With this album, and new albums by VoiVod, King Crimson, Enslaved and Solefald on the way, it's about time I get myself a CD changer.

I think this band is brilliant. I've never heard anyone sing like Anneke can sing. Very natural and emotional. There new one Souvenirs is quite a bit different approach, more "pop" sounding with less guitar, but lots of atmosphere, and it's very original and catchy.
