Earlier this year, The MetalList published an article claiming ANATHEMA were set to reunite and perform at All Tomorrow's Parties Iceland. The article cited confirmation via social media. That confirmation did not exist.
A member of the r/Anathema community on Reddit flagged the piece as unverified and called it out for what it was — content that should never have been published. They were right. We investigated and found no factual basis for the claim. The article has been deleted.
We owe an apology to ANATHEMA fans, to the band, and to our readers. Publishing unverified information is a failure of basic editorial standards, and we take full responsibility. Thank you to the Reddit user who caught this and held us accountable.
We are reviewing our editorial process. Speculation and AI-hallucinated content have no place on this site.
