Van Giersbergen says,  "Well, the album is out and we are getting a lot of positive reactions from both the press, as well as the people who bought the album.  We are now doing some more press and radio gigs and I am very excited with all this positive attention! So now we're concentrating on our first official gig in our hometown Nijmegen this Friday. Also Kristin Fjellseth  (who sang on 'Air') is joining us with her band for these first two gigs so I very much look forward to that!"

The band recently posted the video for the song 'Day After Yesterday' from the forthcoming debut album 'Air ' on Youtube.com. Click here to watch the video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9Z6Tvd4CtY

What the press are saying...
"Anneke lets her penchant for alt pop shine with this new project, while maintaining the angelic, yet dark vocal melodies that made her a beacon of light in the European metal scene." - THE SENTIMENTALIST

"What we hear on the understated Air is an artist (van Giersbergen) relishing the chance to go her own way...an effortless blend of the adventurous and the accessible." - DECIBEL

"...catchy hooks with shimmering arrangements...['Air'] finds Anneke moving towards more aggressive and dramatic territory..." - SEA OF TRANQUILITY

"...a very personal record... Anneke has started down a long and adventurous musical road with 'Air'... We'll see where she takes us." - GRINDER

"'Air' is a dark and touching affair...a sad, contemplating (with flourishes of the positive, mind you) record that will affect immediately and directly if you let it." - METALLIAN
