Fields Of The Nephilim (ambient, metal, rock, albums, fan)

OK...so I know you've been raving about this group for a while, but I just heard a couple songs today (your vids don't work anymore BTW)..."At the Gates of Silent Memory" and their version of "In the Year 2525" (I actually looked for this one, since I just found out they covered that song today). I'd definitely be interested in hearing more...so do I start with The Nephilim or Elizium? Or something else?

The Nephilim is their 2nd album and the better to start with. I will try and fix the vids. Interest at last lol

Yet another band in the long, long list of bands I've been meaning to check out for ages. Since I usually hear them mentioned in the same breath as Clan of Xymox I'm pretty sure I'd like them. I'd love to hear more.

The Neph were an awesome band i was a huge fan in the early 90's and saw them live a few times on the Elizium tour, unfortunatly the dusty western look did group them as a goth band, and was a million mile away from their hometown of Stevenage! but i always found their music more progressive especially with tracks like Pyschonaut (my favorite track of theirs) and Summerland.
Mind you the outfit did Carl McCoy some favours getting him the film role in 'Hardware'.
I actually 'rediscovered' the band about a year and half ago after not listening to them for years and really enjoying the music again!

Being sorted

However COX are far more industrial (although I only have one of their albums). Later FOTN has a Thrash/Industrial feel though.
