THE GATHERING releases single 'In Colour' from 'Beautiful Distortion' album

14-10-2021

Dutch/Norwegian rockers THE GATHERING will release their first studio album in almost a decade, “Beautiful Distortion”, in early spring 2022 via Psychonaut Records. Produced by Attie Bauw, who previously worked on 2006’s “Home” and 1998’s “How To Measure A Planet?”, the band’s 11th studio LP will contain eight songs with a running time of nearly 50 minutes. Ahead of the release the band now already releases a new single  for ‘In Colour’, taken off the new album “Beautiful Distortion”.

Watch ‘In Colour’ below.

THE GATHERING comments: “‘Beautiful Distortion’ is a typical eclectic THE GATHERING album, although it may be our most dynamic and melodic album to date. THE GATHERING‘s signature atmospheric and electronic rock sound is topped with the warm Nordic vocal lines by Silje Wergeland.”

Wergeland adds: “We wanted the artwork and title to reflect the times we have been in lately. Both with the pandemic, trying to be creative in isolation, all our everyday struggles, in private life, in relationships, and all that comes in life and with not being able to meet face to face. It symbolizes communication, or the lack of it, the interaction that has been out of balance. But at the same time, all the beauty that can come out of this distortion, such as new music, ideas and perspectives. It has been a long way, but we are so pleased and excited to soon reveal what we have been working on so hard for the past years.”
