Anathema's We're Here Because We're Here Out Next Tuesday On The End Records
Release New Video For "Dreaming Light" + New Song Contest, Closing Date June 14th





“We’re Here Because We’re Here is the finest they have unleashed so far... a stunningly enjoyable album.” - ALBUM OF THE YEAR in Classic Rock

“A flawless, life-affirming comeback and a gold-plated contender for album of the year’” - 9/10 Classic Rock

“A dazzling collection of highly-charged, progressive and emotively atmospheric rock songs that rarely dip below the euphoric.” - Rocksound

“Scouse progsters make a spectacular return... makes a seven year wait feel entirely worth it” KKKK - Kerrang!

“Anathema are a hidden jewel in the UK’s prog crown. Their finest album to date... it’s an uplifting and sonically sumptuous rock record that could hardly be more appropriate for these prog-loving times” - Metal Hammer

Critically acclaimed atmospheric rock band Anathema are set to release the highly anticipated We’re Here Because We’re Here on June 7th on The End Records. We’re Here Because We’re Here perfectly blends alternative, rock, and prog, and marks the 8th studio album from a band with such a natural sense of melody, seething power and lyrics that they enlighten and inspire. They are a band of brothers and sisters; a band of truly unique origin.

A special, limited edition deluxe edition will include three bonus tracks, 7 inch with two unreleased tracks, and a DVD 5.1 surround version of the album, along with the stereo version, both mixed by Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree.

Anathema's U.S. record label THE END RECORDS have just announced a spectacular competition in conjunction with The Omega Order.
