Fields Of The Nephilim - Paradise Regained. Live In Dusseldorf 1991

[@Mgm1976-j9w]

Clearly one of the most original & underated bands. EVER.

[@ianholmes3761]

I'll go with that.

[@herskgudonot]

@Hugues Viane after 30 years of listening to both bands I strongly disagree.

[@darksideCowboy]

Influenced by the clothes. Their Music is a whole other level^^

[@АннаРутчина-ч7й]

so, why underrated ?

[@mph125]

indeed, why underrated?

[@celestialaeonproject]

Elizium is one of the best music albums ever produced. Nothing more to say. I rest my case.

[@TheRealBaxterslideralus]

when I was doing time for armed robbery, many years ago, I had only a couple of cassettes to listen too and Elysium was my path to escapism

[@AlIguana]

see, I dunno. Elizium was always better live, I found the album to be a mushy messy swooshy mess (yeah, I know it was mixed to be all morphy and shoegazey and stuff, but...). I was a massive fan of the Neph from the first single until Elizium, i found it completely underwhelming. I wish they'd remix it (like, not just remaster it, but dig out the original tapes and produce/mix the whole thing differently). Like with George Harrison's album, where they recently fresh-mixed it to remove all the Phil Spector stuff. Give the tapes to Flood or someone and get him to produce it from scratch. Like I said, it isn't a problem with the band, or the songs (they are fantastic live). Just... don't like the recorded album.

[@Lunatic4Bizcas]

@@TheRealBaxterslideralus : Elizium and Abigail from King Diamond

[@carl13220]

@@AlIguana To me the way Elizium was mixed made sense with the songs. Wright/Yates ( as main songwriters ) obviously infused a "Pink Floyd" vibe into the songs ( Sumerland/And There Will Your Heart Be Also..) so all the keyboard parts were more important and sounded bigger. And ( of course ) the guitar parts a bit "buried" in the mix. That's why, to me, Elizium is a prog-ish album.

[@kerryreedus333]

@Celestial Aeon Project celtic music & epic music, yeh, see to me, your first comment made the most sense. Greatest Album ever recorded, no matter who you are a staunch fan of, nothing much else to say! (except that Carl really is an Angel and Nod is one of the most talented drummers of all time.) Yay!

[@DharamsalaChickRach]

Oh my god....I was at this gig at the age of 19 having travelled there from Lancaster with two friends, by ferry and train. Sleeping in train stations for 3 nights as we followed them from Dusseldorf to Hamburg and Trier....thanks for loading this up. Brought back some amazing unforgettable memories.

[@cooleloekie]

Sounds nice man :D

Hey, been there at the age of 19, too. Was a great night....

Now that's commitment! Been there too, but I'm from Duesseldorf.

[@darksideCowboy]

Saw them in Trier, too

[@olivierdouillard8226]

I saw them in Paris the same year, It was one of my best concert during the 90's

[@newdawnrising8110]

I am always so amazed how great these guys sound live. It’s not like the music is simple. Holy sht. How could they be any better? I mean this is one of the most talented group of musicians out there and still underground. I am just so glad they never sold out. I pity all the rock fans that never got to hear them. I just wish they would tour the US just one more time. I never got the chance to see them here.

[@spuckz]

Give me back a world without mobile phones. Give me back a time where magic could happen at night, when you steped outside the door and left your comfort zone.

[@christinafox7514]

I totally agree no phones and out of comfort zone too right. XXX

[@batwytch]

You can't even enjoy concerts anymore because everybody has their phone up blocking your view and they're too busy trying to record than actually be in the magic of the moment. I'm grateful that I got to experience concerts before smartphones!!

[@ferencbathory9674]

My obsession with Fields will never end. Carl was giving tremendous Jim Morrison vibes during Psychnaut

[@davidforshaw4810]

👍

[@lestatsluv317]

I was thinking the exact same thing. He pretty much always gave me Morrison vibes right down to the subject matter of his songs.

[@graveyardghost2603]

Easily my favorite band of all time, since 1990. Carl McCoy is so amazing. There are no words to adequately describe the magick of his music.

[@n.afonso7171]

True! 😁❤️❤️❤️

[@paulelliott3220]

Awesome Great playing; shimmering guitars with repetitive beauty and stabbing chord, bass that adds depth and grandeur and drums that support the edifice of majestic darkness with perfect balance. Keyboards are not too overbearing and add shape and colour. Carl singing it like he always did This is fucking great and they should come back Such majesty in their performance; smoke and darkness and wonderful music The Nephilim must reform

[@Fan666Maiden]

paul elliott They do still perform live actually, although Carl McCoy and Tony Pettit are the only remaining original members. I was lucky enough to catch them live last night at the Roadburn festival in Tilburg! It was the second time I got to see them perform and it's probably about the best live band I've seen so far. They still manage to perform with the same amount of energy and skill even though they've been going for about 30 years :)

[@phantomrider78]

you live under a rock? FOTM have been playing again for years. Seeing them next month in london.

[@JohnBoyd-jw9uv]

Brilliant. Will definitely get an album or albums!!

[@terencej72]

3 albums worth getting - Dawnrazor, The Nephilim and Elizium.The latter 2 are the best IMO. I wouldn’t recommend later Nefilim or Nephilim releases as it’s essentially McCoy the vocalist with rotating members and the music IMO isn’t as good Others have said it but Elizium must be one of the best Rock albums of the Early90’s. There is also a Live Album Earth Inferno which is in essence this concert. But don’t confuse it as a bootleg as it’s a properly produced record

Elizium is not only the best goth rock album of all time, but the very first progressive goth rock album. An utterly astonishing masterpiece. People often liken it to goth Pink Floyd, but I can also hear hints of goth Yes. More importantly I hear prog Nephilim, unmistakeably Nephilim, such a unique sound all their own.

Nice one. Much better than the two gigs on dvd.

wow 1991...where does time go

[@TorrenOglethorpe]

***** no but I still find it weird that time passes like it does. When someone says the 80's I still think if it like 20 or so years ago. Not 35.

[@Lunatic4Bizcas]

TorrenOglethorpe : Perhaps one of the reasons people like you and I seem to equate time similarly is probably due to the fact that the 80's and early 90's were replete with innovative and amazing music unlike most of the 2000+ era.

Saw them 88 and 90 still best gigs I’ve ever been too and I’ve been too many . Saw them again 2017 and 2022 still blew me away . No disrespect to the guys in the band now but myself and sure many others would love too see the original line up back together, doubt it’ll happen . They need to tour more often and do a bloody album too long since the prophecy single . Oh and how come Carl McCoy doesn’t look any older than he did then ? Must be the Sumerian gods keeping him young lol .
