Anathema - The Silent Enigma (2026 Remaster) Anathema

ANATHEMA'S CLASSIC 1995 OPUS OF ETHEREAL ATMOSPHERIC DOOM - PRESENTED ON MID-PRICE CD & LP WITH REMASTERED AUDIO FROM ORGONE STUDIOS.

Anathema has spent the vast majority of their career making music that defies description

As part of the Peaceville 3, along with Paradise Lost & My Dying Bride, Anathema have carved a strong legacy since their inception at the turn of the 1990s, to become a widely revered & respected band within both the metal world & beyond, as their sound & compositions progressed from doom/ death metal into more rock & progressive territory with each subsequent release, becoming one of the UK's most cherished & critically acclaimed rock bands.

'The Silent Enigma', Anathema's second studio album, was originally released in the summer of '95 & was the first release on which guitarist Vincent Cavanagh took over the vocal duties of the departed Darren White. Where Darren's vocals were guttural, Vincent's style pushed the possibilities for Anathema onwards & upwards, with a scope & breadth beyond his years, complimenting an ethereal roller- coaster of thoughtful atmospherics & crushing Celtic Frost style riffs - the Swiss legends being a notable inspiration. What emerged was a fine example of highly-atmospheric & often emotional gothic doom, spawning classic Anathema songs such as "Restless Oblivion", "Sunset Of Age", "The Silent Enigma" & "A Dying Wish". Lauded by the metal press & fans alike as a doom metal classic, the album has remained a firm favourite within the metal scene.

This edition of 'The Silent Enigma' is presented on mid-price CD, with 2026 remaster created at Orgone Studios by Jaime Gomez-Arellano.
