Alternative 4 marked the biggest departure for Anathema from their original doom metal sound. Sure, the melody had continued to creep in on both The Silent Enigma and Eternity, but Alternative 4 jumped ship from metal completely, laying the blueprint for the alternative (lol) rock sound that the band would continue to expand on throughout the nineties. The production is a little flat, but there are some Anathema classics here. Also, what is going on in the sleeve art? I'm trying to make out what it is that is in the reflection where the face is....
