alternative 4 is not good

Something is going a bit wrong in you're thinking in my opinion. These guys are all icons in music, but still I can't think of a band or singer songwriter making three albums which mean more to me than Anathema's alt4,judgement and afdte. The fact is, in my case, that the important ingredients that provide good music for me are all there. Sound,songwriting, the ability to express emotions probably the 3 most important ones. At the end of the day,I quote Waters ( Pompei video) all that matters is whether it moves you or not. Don't tell me if I listen better to the icons you're referring to I should be moved more by one of them.

This all doesn't mean I am gonna worship you. I can see that besides an artist making fine albums you're a lad very well comparable with the other lads on this forum, who is sometimes expressing opinions that aren't that convincing (which is not helping the worshipping thing, luckily). I think you're not in a good position to judge your own music in the perspective of music in general or the perspective of music created by the afore mentioned people.

What I might do, in stead of worshipping, is buy you a beer saturday in Apeldoorn and say 'well done, Danny ( if it was good of course) Cheers!':)
nothing to add...

after hearing eternity and the few songs i downloaded from judgement and AFDTE, i was expecting so much from this album especially since everyone was saying it's their best. well i got it yesterday for christmas and i was very dissapointed. if their other albums are as bad as this, tell me now so i won't waste my time getting them.

Although I like "Alternative 4", I think it is rather overrated in the Anathema catalogue. "Judgement" and "A Fine Day To Exit" are infinately superior.
 
well there are some pretty heavy indie rock bands, anathema could just call themselves simply 'rock' then the dumbasses in the media, not just metal media, the rest, would then so oh look theirs a rock band ooh look that's a nice album oh they sound good, um wonder why we aint heard of them before
