LP - Black Vinyl with printed inner sleeve. First time on vinyl.
A Vision Of A Dying Embrace contains a night of spellbinding Doom Metal from Anathema's live show in Krakow, Poland, in 1996.
Whilst still reasonably early in the career of the band - and with rhythm guitarist Vincent Cavanagh taking on vocal duties only relatively recently for the sublime 'The Silent Enigma' opus - the set contained a whole selection of now-established classics from Anathema's first two studio albums and Pentecost III EP, with epics like 'A Dying Wish', 'Sleepless', and 'Mine is Yours' captured in their purest and rawest form in the live setting.
Anathema has spent most of their career making music that defies description. As part of the "Peaceville three", along with Paradise Lost and My Dying Bride, Anathema have carved a strong legacy since their inception at the turn of the 1990's, to become a widely revered and respected band within both the metal world and beyond, as their sound and compositions progressed from doom/ death metal into more rock and progressive territory with each subsequent release, becoming one of the UK's most cherished and critically acclaimed rock bands.
This edition of A Vision Of A Dying Embrace is presented on the vinyl format for the first time and includes printed inner sleeve.
