The Gathering earliest releases were categorized as atmospheric death/doom metal, inspired by such underground acts like Celtic Frost and Hellhammer. In 1998 with the release of their 5th studio album, How to measure a planet?, they had a major shift in musical style, with the group acknowledging the growing influence of shoegaze, post rock, experimental rock and the more ethereal sounds of 4AD bands, such as Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins, as well as Pink Floyd and Massive Attack; they expanded their sound, which acquired characteristics of progressive, alternative, and trip rock and gained success and recognition beyond the European borders. The group continue to expand upon the experimental nature of their music.

The Gathering - Etymology
Frank Boeijen on the origins of the name of the band:
"The
name the Gathering has been made like eleven years ago when we started
this band. We were all between 15 and 17. We were watching a lot of
movies those days. One of the movies spoke about immortality and that
you could kill the immortals with cutting their head off [it's the first
Highlander Frank is speaking about]. In the first part of the movie,
they speak a lot about the gathering. There will be a gathering once
with all the immortals. We thought it was a nice name for a band, and
that's how we created this name. And you can feel it's a cool name for
five people who come together to make fine music."
