The Silent Enigma was originally released in the summer of ‘95 and is the first release on which guitarist Vincent Cavanagh took over the vocal duties of recently departed Darren White. Where Darren’s vocals were guttural Vincent’s style pushed the possibilities for Anathema onwards and upwards, with a scope and breath beyond his years. Lauded by the metal press, the album has since been described by Terrorizer magazine as ‘one of Anathema's best’. This special edition of the album also features 2 bonus tracks.

The 1996 Krakow gig on the DVD includes tracks from ‘The Silent Enigma’ along with other highlights from the band’s career up to this point. The DVD also features the promo videos for the tracks ‘Sweet Tears’, ‘Mine Is Yours’, ‘The Silent Enigma’ and ‘Hope’.
