very glad they re-mixed this... huge fan of the band and the production on there latest 3 studio albums. the songs on this album were great, however the original just did not match up sonically to these albums. no more digital guitar tones, and revamped drums, more atmosphere.. up to date. Great album!
this was the first song i heard from katatonia when i first tried them out and one of the first few songs i put onto my myspace when i recently joined. this was a time i was looking for bands similar to paradise lost. so really this album did go a long way
I hold my breath And check the time One minute no collapse If you only knew What I would do for you One thirty breathing lapse We're going in My voice is thin When I tell you to remember That no one will find you My promise from the heart if we part My pulse will guide you through Be still for a moment Everything depends upon you If you die I will die too Once we were heroes But everything has changed since then Now they recognize you too I stay too long Something's wrong You walk out of the picture I hold my breath And check the time One thirty I collapse We went in My voice was thin When I told you to remember That no one will find you My promise from the heart if we part My pulse will guide you through Be still for a moment Everything depends upon you If you die I will die too Once we were heroes But everything has changed since then Now they recognize you too I'm the evidence You passed the test and that's so good for you Oh love Will you read the letters I will send to you? Will I come along? Will they let me out to take the test? Oh love Is the score enough for me to pass the test? [x4]
Viva Emptiness has been my favourite album from Katatonia and Evidence my favourite track from the album. Have not heard the 10th anniversary album in full as of yet but based on this new mix of Evidence, I have to say it sounds a little flat, not as much oomph to it.
Hmmm... I found this overall to be weaker than the original. This is maybe my favorite Katatonia track of all time and definitely my favorite of their albums. Might have been better if they'd done this treatment to an older or less polished album in their catalog like Discouraged Ones. I'll have to listen to the rest of their remasters before making up me mind though.
Yeah agreed mate. Discouraged Ones really requires a re-recording, and Tonight's Decision perhaps just as well, although not as much as DO. Reason being: Jonas is such a good singer nowadays, and back in those days he still didn't have that in him and his voice sounded very weak and restrained on them, since he just went from growling to gentle singing. I'd absolutely love to hear For My Demons 2015. Oh well but that new live album has I Break which is absolutely amazing compared to studio version.
That's why Katatonia is and will always be my favorite band !
One of the few times I approve of a remixed version. Loved the original, but this is more badassererier...or something. More, feed me more Katatonia.
Wow, this remix is so much better. Love the keyboards, drums are louder too. Just everything is less muddy. Love it!

Same here
I am rediscovering viva emptiness through this remastering.. Didnt thought it was possible.. Thank you for this..
I hold my breath
And check the time
One minute no collapse
If you only knew
What I would do for you
One thirty breathing lapse
We're going in
My voice is thin
When I tell you to remember
That no one will find you
My promise from the heart if we part
My pulse will guide you through
Be still for a moment
Everything depends upon you
If you die I will die too
Once we were heroes
But everything has changed since then
Now they recognize you too
I stay too long
Something's wrong
You walk out of the picture
I hold my breath
And check the time
One thirty I collapse
We went in
My voice was thin
When I told you to remember
That no one will find you
My promise from the heart if we part
My pulse will guide you through
Be still for a moment
Everything depends upon you
If you die I will die too
Once we were heroes
But everything has changed since then
Now they recognize you too
I'm the evidence
You passed the test and that's so good for you
Oh love
Will you read the letters I will send to you?
Will I come along?
Will they let me out to take the test?
Oh love
Is the score enough for me to pass the test? [x4]
I actually really like the whole album and what they did with it, this one is cool since you can hear Anders
legendary song

Als ik kippenvel over mijn hele lijf krijg,
dan is dat een teken dat het goed is.
(Jammer dat ik deze gemist heb in 2003,
maar beter laat dan nooit.)
This mix has taken all the edges of th vox away. didnt really like it. The original version was better.
