Anathema Releasing "A Sort Of Homecoming" Acoustic Blu-ray

Anathema will release a live Blu-ray/audio collection entitled "A Sort of Homecoming" on October 30 via Kscope.

Directed by Lasse Hoile (Steven Wilson, Katatonia, Opeth), "A Sort of Homecoming" is a stunning concert film of Anathema's homecoming show on March 7, 2015 in the spectacular setting of the Liverpool Cathedral. The concert was described by Prog Magazine as "a once in a lifetime experience that words can barely do justice."

"I'm really happy that this night in particular has been preserved," commented Anathema guitarist/vocalist, Vincent Cavanagh. "As anyone from Liverpool will tell you, to be given the chance to play the Anglican Cathedral is monumental and a huge honor. The place is absolutely huge. Just look at the cover, it was like doing a gig in Erebor!"

Having previously worked with Anathema on the acclaimed "Universal" concert film, Lasse Hoile captured the 100 minute acoustic set in high definition against the sensational backdrop of Liverpool Cathedral.

Featuring 15 songs selected from the albums "Distant Satellites," "Weather Systems," "We're Here Because We're Here," "A Natural Disaster" and "Alternative 4," the Anathema acoustic trio of Daniel Cavanagh, Vincent Cavanagh and Lee Douglas were joined by rhythm section John Douglas and Jamie Cavanagh, alongside their very talented close friend David Wesling on cello. For this exclusive performance the band was also joined by the renowned violinist, Anna Phoebe, on a haunting rendition of "Anathema."
