TheGatheringband
From doom and gothic metal (early years) to triprock with electronic elements and soundscapes; The Gathering's unique sound has always been hard to pigeonhole. The band has seen various line-up changes over the years and has evolved into an eclectic atmospheric rock band.
The Gathering was formed in 1989 in Oss, The Netherlands, by brothers René Rutten (guitars) & Hans Rutten (drums) together with Bart Smits (vocals). They were soon joined by Hugo Prinsen Geerligs (bass), Jelmer Wiersma (guitars) and Frank Boeijen (keyboards). Their debut album, Always (1992), also featured Marike Groot on vocals. In 2008 current singer Silje Wergeland joined the band after the previous singer, Anneke van Giersbergen, pursued a solo career.
The Gathering have released 11 studio albums and several EP's and live albums to date.
'Beautiful Distortion' (April 2022) is their latest album.
