NORTH AMERICAN RELEASE OF ANATHEMA�S  WE�RE HERE BECAUSE WE�RE HERE SET FOR JUNE 7TH ON THE END RECORDS

BAND ANNOUNCES TOUR DATES


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.  The album�s release coincides with the band�s first ever North American tour. Dates in support of Blackfield kick off on May 18th in Washington, DC. Anathema is the sound of music with real meaning, from a band growing in popularity against all odds, defying expectations and rewriting the rulebooks on what can and can't be done in rock music. 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.

I saw them as far back as on the tour for Serenades ( or maybe for the EP that came after I�m not sure anymore) in the infamous and now demolished Ungdomshuset on Jagtvej 69.
