The more I listen to the West Pole, the more I realise that The Gathering did an awesome job.  After Anneke’s leaving, I think most of the people thought it is over for The Gathering.  Let’s face it, after all her voice was their signiture.  But the Rutten brothers, founders of the band, being the good musicians that they are, did a good job in recreating the new Gathering, while sticking to their roots, writing vital, atmospheric and extravert rock music.

Below, you can see their first and latest music video for the song ‘All you are’ from their 2009 album, ‘The West Pole’.

Also below, you can see the video ‘Try out impressions’, which is a behind the scenes video with the band.  I like these kind of videos, where you can see the band’s members in a relaxed environment, where you can take a glimpse of who they are for real; down to earth people.

If you like the band, then go ahead and join their official YouTube channel; http://www.youtube.com/user/TheGatheringband

Well done Silje Wergeland, for blending in with the band.  Keep it up.
