news. THE GATHERING to release „Live at Dynamo Open Air“ & „Katowice“ for first time in a single vinyl edition

Sevan Mater will release the first-ever single vinyl editions of two iconic live performances from gothic metal legends, The Gathering: “Live at Dynamo Open Air” and “Katowice”. These historic recordings will be out on 21 October 2025 and are now available for pre-order in limited quantities.

“Live at Dynamo Open Air” is a historic live performance reborn on vinyl with raw energy, soaring emotion and pure 1990s magic. With their bold blend of doom metal roots, atmospheric rock, and ethereal vocals, The Gathering were already reshaping heavy music in the mid-90s. Few recordings capture that electric live energy better than their iconic set at Dynamo Open Air, and now, for the very first time available on a single edition vinyl, this legendary moment finally arrives.

“Katowice” will also be available for the first time in a single vinyl edition.

“Katowice” was originally recorded in Poland in 2003 and was previously only available as part of the “Sleepy Buildings” sessions. 7 Mater / Sevan Mater delivers a deluxe edition that’s both elegant and essential, with new cover artwork. Pressed in two limited runs of 500 copies (Black and Marbled Red vinyl), housed in a gorgeous sleeve, this reissue is a testament to timeless beauty in sound.
