Where this album fits

Career context
By the time 'Disclosure' was released in 2012, The Gathering had already evolved significantly from their early days as a gothic metal band. This album marked a continued exploration of alternative rock and progressive metal after their previous record, 'The West Pole' (2009), which had already showcased a shift towards more experimental sounds. 'Disclosure' was critical in solidifying their new sonic direction while maintaining their core identity.
