@@thepickledpixie9052 100% agree. My all time favourite album. It never fails to lift my spirits and take me to places "other worldly". I HAVE to listen to it often. Saw them on the elizium tour in Edinburgh and have never forgotten that night. What a sound, what a gig, what a band.
Their song Last Exit for the Lost is in my road trip getting me 10 miles down the road without realizing it playlist. They also did a heavier cover of In the Year 2525 that is impressive.
Classic song from Fields Of The Nephilim's sophomore album. They didn't have the usual problem with the second album, here. Singer Carl Mc Coy sings often with growls, but when he does not, his voice sounds very Bowie-esque, a natural baritone voice.
Great band, great song. Two their songs off the Elizium album, Wail Of Sumer + And There Will Your Heart Be Also, tied together are just out of this world. Highly recommended.
Carl McCoy was the lead singer, he always sang with that growl, it works with the music, which was often a mix of horror imagery like Vet for the insane. Moonchild was their biggest single that i remember. They started as an EP band, Power and Blue Water were great early tracks. Try the whole album The Nephilim or the first album Dawnrazor. If you want something more Prog Goth Rock try Psychonaut Lib III. I used to follow these guys around when I was at Uni. They were arrested after a gig in Nottingham as they were found with bags of white powder, it turned out they were flour that they used to put on their clothes so they could look like dusty Gothic cowboys...
One of the first times I went to a Goth/Industrial type night there was a guy who had clearly been inspired by their image. A long leather coat almost dragging on the ground.
Memories! They used to tour relentlessly, saw them so many times.........one of the greatest live acts I've ever seen and JFYI, Carl McCoy is still out there doing his thing, quality!
Fields of the Nephilim are a classic Gothic rock band. Often compared to The Sisters of Mercy (you did an album by them) for the deep voice and their atmospheric presence. Both bands also stock the stage in post-apocalyptic cowboy gear. I'd recommend either continuing this album for more rock music in this style or their more polished progressive rock album 'Elizium' which is often considered their best. Both albums are filled with transitions but especially Elizium. Ps on their Elizium wiki page the personnel is listed. (Same personnel for their first three albums)
That's a great surprise, and I'd welcome more. Elysium would make a fantastic album review if the mood takes you; the songs flow together superbly. Whether it's a bonus or not, you'll get a good amount of cleaned-up samples from wax cylinder recordings of Aliester Crowley mixed in... ;)
I am going to push for Elizium as an album listen. As a motivation: check the producer (now, or, if you want a reaction similar to the one you had when you listened to Tower of Strength by the Mission, wait until the reaction. Maybe not as dramatic, depending on your knowledge of producers, but certainly one more evidence that it's a small world).
I recorded this song from the radio around thirty years ago. I could still remember it, for maybe thirty years have passed since the last time I heard it. And yeah, they sound great: the song and the memory of it.
You made an old man (me) happy by reviewing them. The Fiekls (as we fans simply call them) are probably one of the most popular and certainly one of the best gothic rock bands that came from the UK in the 80s. You can never go wrong with anything the've done. This album is great and it's not even their best one. Moonchild is certainly their best-known song, but the songs Love Under Will and Last Exit For The Lost are the masterpieces on this record. And you really should check out anything from their album "Elyzium", that one is their Opus Magnum, sheer musical brilliance that will leave you absolutely stunned. The line-up on their first three albums (so on this as well) was Carl McCoy on vocals, Tony Pettitt on bass, Nod Wright on drums and Paul Wright and Peter Yates on the guitars. Especially Tony Pettitt on bass is an outstanding musician, one of the best bass players I know (and I know quite a few), you should also check out a side project he once had called The Eden House. I recommend their songs "To Believe in Something" and "Timeflows Part 1". Those two songs plus the extended version of Fields' "Sumerland" are the songs I'd always recommend to anyone who wants to know how brilliant Tony Pettitt's bass playing is.
You have to hear Wail of Sumer/ And there will your heart be also…FOTN have been called the gothic Pink Floyd; those two songs (which play as one) will convince you why. I love FOTN, they are so underrated. Also check out the intro/ slow kill from their first album, it’s amazing!
Yay goth!! For a surprisingly modern (well, post 2010 modern) take, try She Past Away. They are Turkish, and have turned their bass and reverb up well past 11. "Sanri" and "Berlirdi Gece" would be great starting points.
If anyone had played this to me without any identification, I might have thought it was a lost Sisters Of Mercy track that has never appeared on any of their official releases.
Carl Macoy is the original Singer and Bandfounder of Fields of the Nephilim in the 1980 and the last member of the original Band. He renues the Band with a hole new Crew after thenturies.
Yesss I really love this song and this band!! Such a classic gothic rock song! So grateful it was suggested. I would be delighted if you explored more of their work, it was refreshing to see how excited you were about this. ❤
A track, (band) full of Gothy goodness... Crackin' melody, jangly guitar, and great hooks. Vocal-wise, and I'm not always a fan of growl, but when it works, it works. And here it does in spades, hugely adding to the atmosphere. Deffo worth your time hearing more of these guys JP.
God I had so forgotten this song, wasn't my thing at the time but the progressive element is prominent all through the track and had me hooked when I heard it 30 years ago or so, i recognised the title and band name and gave it a listen here, great call and thankyou JP.
The story goes that Carl McCoy was eating a hot sausage when he was younger and he burnt the back of his throat, so whenever he tried to sing, normally it would always have a bit of a rasp to it.
Clearly I'd encourage you to give some other tracks from this album a shot. This band have, unfortunately, been outshadowed by the Sisters of Mercy during the 80's, but when it comes to honest goth rock, it's a hidden gem.
There was a portuguese band that was definitely inspired by FOTN: their name was Capela Das Almas (translated "Chapel of Souls", maybe a reference to a small church located at Oporto). But it turns out... they were even better!! (ok, ok, it's my opinion, but their drummer is incredible) Check: ruclips.net/video/3_K_ygh1zJE/видео.htmlsi=1YCmScQjKdIuLamQ (the video is from the beginning of the nineties, the sound is not so good). They recently reunited to record and give concerts, and they still sound good, but I think the drummer is not the same. NO OTHER BAND could get CLOSE TO Capela Das Almas. Here's one of their demos (from the earlier days ) ruclips.net/video/Mmyvh70gB5A/видео.htmlsi=p6bxy7bZ3ZpCouxV
I would absolutely be into hearing some more of these guys on the channel! Been meaning to check them out for a while but this is my first time actually hearing any of their music. Definitely enjoyed what I heard here!
Heard of the band but never heard anything by the band (hence why I'm having a listen), but the guitars sound sooo much like Cocteau Twins. The deep, growled vocal put me in mind of Cocteau Twins but fronted by an anti-Liz Fraser :-D This was interesting and worth the listen.
That's what it's all about. I'm rubbish in that I tend to watch for reactions to songs I've heard a million times, but I should click on everything to learn new stuff.
IF you can't do an album reaction to Elizium, I would recommend Psychonaut as a second reaction, to get a feel for their evolution. That said, all titles mentioned in the comments are solid ...
And this is why youre my favourite reactor! Also try Love Under Will by Fields. If you'd like to try something a little more Goth/80s/Industrial I'd recommend Front 242 Headhunter.
YAY! MORE POST-PUNK/GOTHIC ROCK!!! Speaking of, when can we expect you to close out “Script of the Bridge” by The Chameleons?? “View from a Hill” is one of their best tunes👌🏼
Other songs worth checking by Fields of the Nephilim. Sumerland (What Dreams May Come), Preacher Man, Trees Come Down, Last Exit For The Lost, Dust, Love Under Will, to mention but a few. Definitely my favourrite band of the genre.
I think you would enjoy diving deeper into classic goth rock! Vendemmian - Edge of the World (ruclips.net/video/3gryQ9NSgws/видео.html) The Marionettes - Ave Dementia (ruclips.net/video/fy5D_6CetBw/видео.html) All Living Fear - Jessica (ruclips.net/video/3JHo1kd6mfs/видео.html) Nosferatu - The Wiccaman (ruclips.net/video/jOFOnjwadZo/видео.html)
The song is inspired by the novel of the same name by actual occultist Aleister Crowley, in which a magic circle uses a woman (with her consent) in a ritual to bring about the birth of some spiritual messiah, while also preparing for the outbreak of World War I. Which all sounds rather pompous and heavy, but it's actually written with a great deal of wit and humor.
If you like this energetic goth rock style I don’t know how to describe it better 😅 may i suggest to listen to The Mission’s wasteland, or Tower of Strengh tracks 🎉🎉🎉
I'm glad there is a wide diversity of musical possibilities. Should a band want to explore the dog/man connection and bark out the lyrics, that is entirely their choice. Far be it for me to cast aspersions upon them.
This reminds me of *Rob Zombie* - not because they sound alike, but because of a certain time where "the playlist" featured a lot of Fields of the Nephilim, System of a Down, Type O Negative, and Rob Zombie. (And there was more Rob Zombie than anything else.) And then there was also a girl around called Living Dead Girl around. Not to her face, but whatever name she had before that, I've forgotten. Finally, having deleted a few, I've got a Rob Zombie song I think might pass. *Superbeast* ruclips.net/video/uHBtpqbOKXk/видео.html (sounds more like I remember the sound of it).

I like both bands... and I think they sound pretty different, especially musically. A band that sounds much more like Sisters of Mercy are Merry Thoughts, for example.
@@Reani71 I didn't know Merry Thoughts and I've just listened to it. Indeed, it's similar to Sisters of Mercy, but I also find Fields of the Nephilim in the same vein, albeit with grittier vocals.

@@thepickledpixie9052 Not my thing, musically or vocally. The whole thing reminds me of the Sisters of Mercy, The Mission and other bands of the genre that I never got into. I preferred Play Dead, for example.
@@a.k.1740 fair enough. I don't think Elizium is like any of those though. That album is a masterpiece. It's more like a darker more atmospheric Pink Floyd if we're making comparisons.
Hmmm...Goth never really floated my boat. I found it all rather silly and unconvincing - fairly conventional rock songs sung by badly made-up men and women with poor wardrobe taste. The guitar in this track sounds like Johnny Marr found a job after The Smiths broke up but didn't want to disclose his identity so hid behind a big hat and flour all over his face. The music is OK but never rises above that. Most Goth that I've heard is in a similar vein so, if you'd like some more, Justin, go ahead, but it's not for me.
One of the greatest British bands ever. Saw them live over 50 times. Absolutely stunning. And still going
Ty for watching Colin :)
I am SO jealous! LOL!
I've never seen them, unfortunately.
And live they were absolutely great. Earth Inferno is still one of my alltime favourite records.
They haven't played the U.S since the 90's though unfortunately.
Same here and agree 100%
I'd suggest their album Elizium which is one of the most critically acclaimed Gothic albums. It also has a progressive rock factor in the mix.
Second! I think it’s the best Goth album that exists.
@@LoganAlbright73 an utterly amazing album
Elizium is a MASTERPIECE!
All time favourite album. I'm hoping they'll do an Elizium album tour like they did with The Nephilim album.
@@thepickledpixie9052 100% agree. My all time favourite album.
It never fails to lift my spirits and take me to places "other worldly".

Psychonaut - a stand alone track never appeared on any Nephilim albums is worth a react... live or studio! ;)
Great band, great song.
Two their songs off the Elizium album, Wail Of Sumer + And There Will Your Heart Be Also, tied together are just out of this world. Highly recommended.
They started as goth but are bigger than that with floyd atmospheres and epic long tracks. Amazing live and very addictive.

I saw them at Reading Festival back in 1987. They were the first band I ever heard doing growling vocals. They used to wear really long coats. 😁

Excellent. One of the best bands ever [and still touring]... YES MORE PLEASE!!!!

The sound of my youth, great choice, proper reaction, as always😉
More Nephs, please! All their albums are amazing
Agreed....
My favorite song from them. Thank you!!! It’s great to see a smile to this. It makes me happy 😮 I love you for this!
Listen to their live album "Earth Inferno" in its entirety in a darkened room. It's an experience unlike any other you'll ever have.
I am going to push for Elizium as an album listen. As a motivation: check the producer (now, or, if you want a reaction similar to the one you had when you listened to Tower of Strength by the Mission, wait until the reaction. Maybe not as dramatic, depending on your knowledge of producers, but certainly one more evidence that it's a small world).
Had to watch this. They're probably the most famous band to come from my hometown.
Some of my fav fields songs to check out For her light, preacher man, blue water and straight to the light
Definitely one of my favourite songs by the fields of Nephilim , inspired by the novel of the same name by Alistair Crowley.
Last exit for the lost...... 🌟
I recorded this song from the radio around thirty years ago. I could still remember it, for maybe thirty years have passed since the last time I heard it. And yeah, they sound great: the song and the memory of it.
