The Gathering

The Gathering is a Dutch alternative rock band that has been a significant force in the musical landscape since their formation in 1989 in Oss, Netherlands. Initially identified with the doom metal and gothic metal genres, the Gathering showcased their propensity for innovation by undergoing a transformation in their sound over the years, incorporating elements of trip-hop, progressive rock, and atmospheric soundscapes. This evolution has set them apart as a band with a penchant for experimenting and defying traditional genre limitations, resulting in a unique and eclectic discography that resonates with a diverse audience.

Throughout their career, The Gathering has seen several lineup changes, with vocalist Anneke van Giersbergen being a notable member who contributed significantly to their breakthrough and rising international fame in the 1990s and early 2000s. Following her departure in 2007, the band continued to evolve with Silje Wergeland taking over the vocal duties. With recent releases like "Beautiful Distortion" and "Interference," The Gathering demonstrates a continued commitment to pushing creative boundaries, celebrating over three decades of music-making with their enduring and innovative presence in the rock scene. Their legacy is also captured in live performance recordings such as "TG25: Live at Doornroosje," celebrating their 25-year milestone, showing the continued passion and dynamic performances that have captivated fans around the world.
