hey where did you find it? is it out yet? never heard about it, anyways it can't be older than a year (if it is, than shame on that exact someone... )

 

[rafael]

I might be mistaking, but isnt that the same cover as on the reissue of Alternative 4?

 

[flebbie]

I think it's brand new, here's a review (in Dutch):
http://www.gothtronic.com/?where=music&sub=reviews&action=text&reviewid=589&textid=1856

It tells the vocals are by Danny and that its done very well, that it really catches the original atmosphere.

 

[flebbie]

I might be mistaking, but isnt that the same cover as on the reissue of Alternative 4?

Uh.. no.. On the Alt 4 reissue you have 3 Pink Floyd covers and 1 Bad Religion cover. This is really something new.. strange it didnt appeared as news on the website.

here is a link to the label

 

[Bastet]

and antimatter on disc2. i asked for it in the store, they said they had a hard time getting it :S

 

[Morpheus]

well, it's only by Danny if i'm not completely wrong, sounds quite good, not exactly my cup of tea though. Just gave it two listens though. Antimatters Black Sun is great though.

 

[Loona]

yea Danny does the vocals, but don't know more about it I would like to listen to it before paying imo quite alot for a double cd, I do not doubt it's good, but I don't have the money now to spend on cds without listening to them and knowing it's worth it

 

[Morpheus]

Same here, that's why i got them two songs by other ways. DUnno, by times i will listen to the whole cd in a shop and then decide whether it's worth the money or not.

 

[Loona]

wondering if it will appear in shops where I can listen to it... think it won't
but ok, it's not that 'antisocial' music that big shops won't order

 

[Morpheus]

well after all it's a Dead Can Dance Tribute, and they were quite popular i reckon. So it might end up even in bigger stores. just a theory though.

 

[Loona]

hope the theory works
so far I have seen many strange things appearing in strange places
like Tesco supermarkets often get me having to sit down...

 

[Oceana]

thats the bad tracklist, no anathema on the tribute album... it's only danny on it, and green carnation isnt playing there

Impressive are the antimatter, the gathering, ulver and subterranean masquerade versions

 

[Dwra]

Ha, it's one of the few times i feel really like that i live in this place

So i got this tribute album couple of weeks ago, it comes from a greek label, "Black Lotus Records" and i have to admit that it has an excellent layout!
Indeed there's no "Anathema cover" on this album, only a "Daniel Cavanagh cover" of the song "Spirit". Nevertheless, it's an excellent album as i said before. wait untill you hear the cover that Antimatter did on the song "Black Sun", incredible, just incerdible.
Same goes for the covers that were made by
Ulver ,
The Gathering (old one but who cares)
Arcana, Danny Lilker, Sarah Jezebel Deva, Akrabu etc

Anyway, it's definitelly a worth buying album, don't miss it!

 

[Bastet]

yep, the man in the CD-store told me he had to order them in greece...lucky you

 

[Don Corleone]

strange that none of us got the news of its release?

 

[Bambi]

speak for yourself

 

[zupi_clone]

everytime i look at that cover, i cant help but think the person has just got up off the toilet and has the bog roll out ready to themselves

 

[Loona]

and green carnation isnt playing there

sad to hear
than who's there instead? or is it shorter?
well it really didn't appear on the official GC site though
