I recently got A Fine Day to Exit, and loved it. There is very little metal about it though - Anathema do have something in their sound that reminds me of PT (whom they are supporting on the current European tour), but they are even better IMHO.

The Cavanagh brothers have had a *love affair* with Pink Floyd since forever, which is why there are similarities between them and PT. Eternity signalled the beginnings of their softer, less doom-metal, experimental side (however The Silent Enigma is not without its experimemtal atmosperic aspects) and A Fine Day completed their move away from metal and into doomy atmospheric rock. Their entire catalogue played in chronological order is a wonderful musical journey.
The fact that this band are currently unsigned is the biggest crime in music history.  |
I honestly, would like to agree with both of you, but in fact, I find
A Fine Day to Exit
their weakest effort in their discography. It's still atmospheric and Floydish in a way
but it lacks progression and deep feelings. It's a bit too commercial for me,
even though I find 2 or 3 tracks that remind me of the good Anathema days.
Their recent songs remind me of Coldplay... but I have to agree that it's a shame
that they are currently unsigned.
