Hi everyone. This is not a review, as I have far too much wine in my system for that, but I'm just listening to some old Neph and came on here to see if I had possibly missed something over the years that could provide me with a new fix. However, I have to take issue with the person who said;
"....But then PLEASE don't cry out that Carl couldn't sing - we all knew he couldnt sing a note but with such a tense musical atmosphere so what?! Think of Carl's voice as 'vocals' in the true sense of the word!"
Now, no offence, but... Mr. McCoy's singing is perfect for the band and always was. Listen again to this album and tell me again that Mr.McCoy can't sing. He has more passion in his bottom lip than Wayne Hussey, et al have ... Read More:

Until the Fields Of The Nephilim entered the forum, Sisters Of Mercy stood alone as the flag bearer of the deepest, darkest and most intense style of music ever; Dawnrazor is a magnificent album for so many reasons, not the least because it proved the Fields' were no pretenders to the throne, but the new voice of a movement that was becoming susceptible to stagnation and decay, after so short a time. The album rips open the gates of Hell with it's cruel, followed by the equally chilling Slow Kill, like steel nails on a blackboard; Laura II (well... Laura) cries tears of blood into a pool of apathy and stirs the soul with empathy for defeated hope. Conversely, the vitality of such songs as Preacher Man, Volcane, Power and Reanimator are all-consuming; ... Read More:

Fields of the Nephilim will forever be remembered for being one of the last great English Goth bands of the 80s/90s. They had already been releasing EPs before they finally managed to get signed up to Beggars Banquet and release a studio album.
Although this is their first album it was already a slight change of direction. Their sax played was gone and a second guitarist had been drafted in. The world was ready for The Nephilims domination...only it wasn't was it! However for me this album defines my early teenage years (I was 15 when it was released and it joined my collection of other classic 80s goth instantly).
The opening strains of The Harmonica Man (taken from Once Upon a Time in the West) still make me think back to over ... Read More:

I was given this album (on cassette) second hand, a few weeks after its UK release: my friend (who lived in the woods in the middle of nowhere) said that it made him feel too scared to listen at night. Clearly a rather over- sensitive soul himself, he felt that I might like it better.
I did. This is the Nephilim in their most goth-rock phase, with a guitar-dominated sound and a rough edge that had almost wholly disappeared from their studio work by the time the excellent "Elyzium" was released.
There is no doubting the highlight of the album for the neophyte Nephilim listener: track 4, "Preacher Man". With a driving, stomping pace and instrumentation and scoring that lets you know what Goth contry music would sound like, you can ... Read More:

The first time I heard this was on vinyl when first released (1987/8?) - the opening sequence pulled me in and another Sisters addict became a follower of the Nephilim ( as well as the Mish and continuing love affairs with Souxsie and NMA)
Buy it, put on your headphones and close your eyes and experience this music...
