5.0 out of 5 stars A Perfect Album, 9 May 2004
This review is from: Nighttime Birds (Audio CD)
This is the best Gathering album, in my opinion and one of my favourite albums of all time. Beautiful, tastefully simple melodies, meditative rhythms and atmospheric songs are features of the Gathering's style.
The band uses these elements to create songs that are often long without sounding indulgent and show a full spectrum of human emotions, from joy, anger, sorrow, and the rest.

This album features an eclectic mix of fast (Third Chance) and slow (Nighttime Birds), light (The May Song) and heavy (On Most Surfaces) songs, all of which are excellent.

If you buy any album from this band, let it be this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific Music From A Multi-Faceted Group, 18 Dec 2004
By PhilsterNo1 (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Nighttime Birds (Audio CD)
The Gathering are a band not content to rest on their laurels. Nowadays they produce a sound labelled 'trip-rock', some distance from the metal music with which they began. Nighttime Birds is the second album with female vocalist Anneke and, like its predecessor Mandylion, will impress anyone with a taste for loud guitar music and intelligent lyrics.

I first heard them in 1998. I was working with a blonde Viking over XMAS and my ears suddenly pricked-up when I heard 'Third Chance', a truly glorious song [track 6]. Most of what's on this album is of comparable quality and it is refreshing to hear a metallish band with a singer who really can sing and not about cartoonish concepts. I strongly recommend this album and also both its predecessor and successor - the conceptual How To Measure A Planet.

4.0 out of 5 stars A cd with heavy sound and beautiful melodys, 19 May 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Nighttime Birds (Audio CD)
This is there second cd with Anneke van Giersbergen. She has a beautiful voice and she is very important in gathering's sound. This is a good cd and have to buy it. It has got a dark and heavy sound, and on top Anneke's vocal which makes it very beautiful and atmospheric. When you listen to it you can almost feel like flying on the music. The only bad side is that it sholud have had some more variation in the music.
