Background

The Gathering have evolved drastically in their 23 years of existence, going from death-doom metal in their early days, through gothic metal to more progressive sounds and settling somehow in a genre popularly labelled as "trip hop".

Jonathan Selzer of Metal Hammer stated, "Less low-key, more electronics-infused than 2009's The West Pole , it's still at the mercy of melancholic driftwinds, Silje's rich, ruffled Arctic floe able to bear devastation with haunting, soul-cleansing grace. If you're fond of frill-free, fragile emotional hinterlands that don't dissolve under scrutiny, Disclosure will reach down deep." [3] Sputnikmusic review observed, "From start to finish, Disclosure is an extraordinary endeavor into the farthest reaches of The Gathering's progressive/experimental side. Silge Wergeland plays a major role in Disclosure's success, but it is important not to overstate her responsibility at the expense of the rest of the band. Selecting even just a few tracks at random is enough to understand the quality and depth of their imagination, not to mention their strength of execution." [4]
