I'm good...I was basically playing jazz and such for the last however many years but I accidentally ended up playing drums in a metal band again!

Also: They release a "semi-acoustic" live album called "Sleepy Buildings" in early 2004.

'sleepy buildings' is great i was listening to it passively the other week and had a sort of epiphany with it. was thinking about nostalgic things

It got some very good reviews on some metal-sites.

It's only okay. I actually like the poppier moments more than the Gathering-by-numbers tracks.
Anneke's new album is total middle-of-the-road stuff, but I like it a lot more than the Gathering's new one, she and her band have a nice thing going.

So the Anneke-less one was just OK then? I didn't think the last one with Anneke was too hot tbh. I am relistening to Planet and Souvenirs, both awesome.

every once in a while I revisit the Planet/if_then_else/Souvenirs stretch and recall when these weirdos were one of the best rock bands on the, er planet. and then I also wonder aloud whether brad has heard these
