1) what happened to the gathering book? last time I've heard steven (almost 3/4 years ago) he just finished the nighttime birds chapter. did you have read some of the already written stuff? will it ever be published?
2) the artworks of always... and almost a dance featured a picture of a woman just like first 2 releases of the other doom/death outsiders anathema (crestfallen+serenades) and my dying bride (symphonaire..+as the flowers...) come out at the same time of the gathering.
is that thing intentional or totally random? is there a meaning behind the woman figure?
3) still on always... and almost a dance artworks: the picture of the always... cover isn't credited, where did you get it? who is the woman?
the almost a dance credits says "cover by the gathering", did you took the picture personally? is the girl one of your friends?
hope hans will not go mad answering
Hi Pier, no I don't mind!
1) The book is still there, Steven and I have to come together and see what is the next step. It has no deadline, that's why it goes quite slowly.
2) No big meaning behind it. Just a reaction towards all the bloody skull covers I guess. Nature and beauty as a reaction.
3) The girl is a photomodel, the band never saw her in real life. The pic is taken by Jack Tillmans. We had some problems with the record company back then (Foundation 2000, that is), and the idea was to make a picture to voice our thoughts. We came up with a girl (we) who throw away a pieve of paper in the form of a paper airoplane, into a muddy pool. We are full of hidden messages
