The Gathering – Superheat (1999)

‘Superheat’ is where the live recordings began for The Gathering. I’m not entirely sure where this version was recorded, but it is certainly less emotive than the amazing semi-acoustic work of ‘Sleepy Buildings’ and less intense than the chaotic ‘A Noise Severe’, which was recorded in front of a fanatical Chilean crowd who certainly made their presence felt. At times, one could be forgiven for not knowing that this is a live recording because, as per usual (I’m sure someone must be getting sick of hearing this), Anneke’s performance is dazzling despite not being as strong as it is on the other two live records.
