Souvenirs (The Gathering Album)
Souvenirs is the seventh studio album by Dutch alternative rock band The Gathering. It was released in February, 2003 through independent label Psychonaut Records; the label was founded by the band in 1999. Souvenirs was the first full-length release from The Gathering since parting ways with Century Media, and the first full-length release for Psychonaut Records.
The album was recorded at E-Sound, Weesp, Loud Amsterdam and A1 Amsterdam during 2002 and 2003 under the guidance of producer Zlaya Hadzich. The album was engineered by Zlaya Hadzich, Sietze Gardenier, David Klooker & Ignaz Bruens; mixed at A1, Loud & E-Sound by Zlaya Hadzich, René Rutten & Michael Buyens; and mastered by Alan Ward at Electric City.
Many speculate that it was the new experimental directions of the group, as well as the inability of the label to market them that signaled the end of their contract with Century Media.
This is the last studio album to feature bassist Hugo Prinsen Geerligs.

Famous quotes containing the word gathering:
“The science hangs like a gathering fog in a valley, a fog which begins nowhere and goes nowhere, an incidental, unmeaning inconvenience to passers-by.”
