'Home' & 'Souvenirs'

Both classic TG albums recorded in 2003 ('Souvenirs') and 2005 ('Home').  A very interesting phase in their career. By creating experimental sounds and combining them with their characteristically song writing skills, TG made 2 very special albums in a row.

'Souvenirs' is the first full-length release from The Gathering since parting ways with Century Media, and the first full-length release for Psychonaut Records. 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 final studio album to feature original bassist Hugo Prinsen Geerligs.

'Home' is TG's eighth album. The album was released on 15 April 2006 by Sanctuary Records through its heavy metal label Noise.
'Home' was produced, mixed and engineered by Attie Bauw, who also was at the helm during the 'How to measure a planet?' recordings. The album was recorded in a little church in Maurik, the middle of the Netherlands.

It was the last album to feature lead singer and lyricist Anneke van Giersbergen.

They were out of print for a very long time. 'Home' 10 years, and 'Souvenirs' even 13 years. 
But they are back now!

'Souvenirs' comes in beautiful gatefold sleeve, colored transparent green and black mixed vinyl, and with printed inner sleeves. 

'Home' has beautiful gold foil front cover artwork, comes as solid gold vinyl and has printed inner sleeves as well. Both albums have 4 bonus tracks, songs recorded during that particular period.
