 Eventually being released as "The Silent Enigma" in October 1995, the album cemented Anathema's status further and it was followed up just a year later with their third album, "Eternity".Eternity displayed a move from White's original death growl towards more "clean" vocals.Drummer John Douglas left the band for a short time ahead of the recording and release of "Alternative 4"; he was replaced by Shaun Steels, formerly of Solstice and later of My Dying Bride.
