Anathema will release a live film and album entitled Universal on September 23 via Kscope, the band have confirmed.

It was recorded during their tour in support of ninth album Weather Systems, which drew critical acclaim with Prog Magazine declaring:

“Anathema continue to make music that glows with meaning and a love for art’s external power to touch the soul. Still special, increasingly extraordinary, the band and this album will be cherished.”

Film-maker Lasse Hoile captured the band’s one-off show in September 2012 with the Plovdiv Philharmonic Orchestra at the ancient Roman theatre of Phippopolis, Bulgaria.

Universal will be available on Blu-ray and DVD/CD set.

A limited edition four-disc set including a Blu-ray, DVD and two CDs will contain bonus content including footage of the band playing at London’s Union Chapel venue.
