The Gathering recruited Silje Wergeland of OCTAVIA SPERATI,
as their new vocalist. The drummer Hans Rutten commented:
"Silje has been the singer of Norwegian band OCTAVIA SPERATI
and various other projects for eight years.
She did a superb job (in the new LP from The Gathering,
"The West Pole"). This album has two talented
invited vocalists: the Dutch and Anne Van Den Hoogen
Mexican Marcela obvious (the STREAM OF PASSION)
musicians and other guests. "
Hans continued, "What can we say about 'The West Pole?"
It's a vital album of rock, atmospheric and extroverted,
with all quality and power for which the The Gathering is famous,
addition of many new elements. The sound is led by guitar,
alive and immediate, a strong album with amazing and beautifully colored
female voice. It is produced by guitarist
