Weather Systems biography
When Anathema announced an indefinite hiatus on 22nd September 2020, due in part to the financial burdens of a lengthy career that had failed somewhat to live up to expectations in commercial terms, it was a crying shame, but also totally understandable. It always seemed likely, however, that the two remaining founding brothers Daniel and Vincent Cavanagh would eventually make new music again, and 2024 has seen them both emerge from their semi-retirement with new projects.

Vincent's new art-rock project 'The Radicant' released a debut 5-track EP called 'We Ascend' earlier this year, but the debut album by Daniel Cavanagh's 'Weather Systems' (also the name of one of his former band's most acclaimed albums), called 'Ocean Without A Shore' is probably the closest thing that Anathema fans will get to a continuation of that band's at least temporarily halted career.

The album is made up of new versions of songs that were originally intended to form the next Anathema album anyway, since in 2019 Daniel began writing what he thought would become the basis of the next Anathema offering, and to finally bring the album to fruition, he teamed up with multi-instrumentalist Daniel Cardoso, who played drums on the two most recent Anathema albums 'Distant Satellites' and 'The Optimist'. The 'Ocean Without A Shore' album was released on September 27th via Music Theories Recordings (part of the Mascot Label Group).

While Vincent's 'The Radicant' project leans more towards the experimental and abstract side of prog, Danny has chosen to continue focusing primarily on the sound that Anathema migrated towards during its later years, whilst at times also paying tribute to the past. He takes care of vocals, keys, piano, guitars, bass, vocoder and programming, whilst Daniel Cardoso looks after drums and production. The album also features the guest vocalists Soraia Silva, Petter Carlsen, Oliwia Krettek, and Paul Kearns.

'Ocean Without a Shore' can therefore be looked upon as a somewhat of a spiritual successor to Anathema's more modern sound, along with some hints here and there back to Danny Cavanagh's 2017 solo album titled 'Monochrome'. The music could be described as orchestrated rock, laced with electronica, progressive elements, vocal harmonies and celestial atmospheres.
