Neben der Vorfreude auf das neue Anathema Album "The Optimist" und der u.a. Hörprobe zu "Springfiel", geben die Engländer weiteren Grund zum Jubel. Auf der Europa-Tournee im Herbst werden Anathema von den genialen Aclest begleitet.

"Here we present the song “Springfield”, it’s actually the song that closed our unforgettable Wembley gig with Opeth and it seemed to be a track that just fell into place without much effort,” sagte Sänger und Gitarrist Daniel Cavanagh "It seemed to do itself. The song forms part of a narrative that runs through The Optimist album, it’s a narrative that begins where A Fine Day To Exit left off. The album is a journey. The songs are ambiguous. There is no right or wrong way to take them. Make of them what you will."
