Я с глубоким почтением отношусь к коллективу Fields Of The Nephilim, являющимся одним из родоначальников всего готического рока. На втором полноформатном альбоме они шагнули далеко вперед по сравнению со своей дебютной пластинкой - к этому моменту у группы уже выработались свой собственный почерк, и грубая мощь, характерная для песен с "Dawnrazor"(1997), на "The Nephilim" стала обрамлена в кристальной чистоты аранжировки - песни Fields Of The Nephilim обрели законченность и целостность, которой им отчасти не хватало на дебютной работе. Альбом вышел осенью 1988 года и сразу попал на 14-ю позицию британского хит-парада. Под обложкой пластинки, на которой изображена древняя книга с диковинными символами, вас ждет мощно сыгранная музыка, полная мрачной красоты и силы, по своей стилистике чем-то схожая с ранним Pink Floyd. Карл Маккой - "черный ковбой" радует нас своей, уже ставшей фирменной, хрипотцой. Все тексты песен сплошь наполнены оккультным содержанием, языческой мифологией и философией безысходности. Проходных композиций на альбоме нет вообще! Все по-своему интересны, у всех своя душа. Легкая, акустическая "Celebrate", динамичные "Chord Of Souls" и "Moonchild". Но самая любимая композиция, конечно же, "Last Exit For The Lost", за стремительно изменяющийся во второй половине песни темп, уносящий вслед за собой, вместе с великолепным вокалом Маккоя. Ознакомление с альбомом рекомендую всем и каждому! |

Just stand in my way
If you want a display
Your love in that way... Now get out
Think about this...
Well I've seen... With old eyes
And every time I turn around another dies
Think about this... If looks could kill
Vision's Black, I go to war sometimes
When I'm walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
Vision's black, I go to war sometimes
When I'm walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
And I'm dreaming
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places
And I'm dreaming...
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places Stop!
2. The Watchman
Innocence is hurting, a world speaks out of tune
Promise calls, promise falls, what are we to do?
With a clouded view, you follow me through
Sadly the tides are changing, my world slips out of you
Your body falls, my body calls, what are we to do
With a clouded view, you follow me through
My lifes turning pages, I see a promised day
Watchmen never age here, they just sleep in vain
Drowning people stare here, they don't care to call
So I rebury the pages, Kthulhu calls...
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to form
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to call
In the name of Jesus Christ won't you fear my name
I've been around since Moses, your preacher never came
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to form
You'll see, you'll see her when she starts to call
Follow me...
You sleep, you sleep, follow me
It's just another day, remember I am calling you
Just another day, remember she's calling for you
Just another day, Kthulhu I am calling for you
Just another day, An empire has fallen from view
You sleep, you sleep
Follow me
You sleep, you sleep
You cannot follow me
3. Phobia
He drains all of my lifeforce
A body like a unicorn
Its a phobia
In this crowded room
The people just stare
Silver sun entering space,
I want to just pass around
It's now in my face
All my days am I human or worse
All my days, I'm turning over
All my days, I'm turning over
There's a land
The dead has captured
It's no less beautiful
It's a phobia
In this crowded room
The people just stare
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground {... to bleed apart your ground}
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
All my days, I'm turning over
The last time around here we go
I should be in Heaven but I don't glow
All my days am I human or worse
All my days, I'm turning over
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
Send my soul to lay in a patch of ground
4. Moonchild
Moonchild...
Well it's a righteous dream
Out of mind
A righteous dream
Out of mind
Is it right just dreaming
Out of my day
Take your horses
Let them crawl
Put them in their cages
That's righteous for your soul
Open your eyes
Despite what seems
Longevity
That's a righteous part of me
Moonchild
Lower me down, lower me down
Moonchild
Lower me down down down down down down
Well it's a righteous day
Out of mind
A righteous day
Never return, I'm waiting no more
They take no prisoners in the promised war
I'll die for this
I'll die for this
Take it away
Moonchild
Take off for safer places
Can't you see
You're losing me
Well I'm listening to an empty hall
You can't see for they've burned before
They take me down to the window shame
Longevity hear my fame
Moonchild
5. Chord Of Souls
the preacher says to all his men
I hear godly laughter

well I'm on fire when he's so cold
I hear godly laughter

6. Shiva
Walk this is welcome to heaven
Believe welcome to 666
Breathe come closer 1 2 3 4
Walk open your eyes now darling
Let the weapon rise my darling
come closer
The sweet smell of giving
7. Celebrate
When the moment's right
Only moments rise
For the lesser blessed
It's all promises
When the daughters rise
From their comas rise
For a lesser blessed
It seems honest here
Celebrate give love and praise
Celebrate
For our lesser days
Obsessions in your eyes
The peril of my life
Where others fall
You came back again
With no grace in mind
For the magan blind
To a lesser god we'd seem honest here
And you'll turn
You'll find new highways
And you'll turn
But lady you'll burn
This moment's all you have it there
This moment hangs like your ragged hair
Celebrate
Give love and praise
Celebrate
For our lesser days
When the moment's right
Only moments rise
The eternal sea of silence
The shadows of mankind
And you'll turn
You'll find new highways
And you'll turn
You find new highways
Celebrate here
Celebrate here please
For all you've changed me
Celebrate here
Celebrate here
Celebrate for our lesser days
8. Love Under Will
I need to be alone tonight
Smother me or suffer
Lay down I'll die tonight
Smother me or suffer
When I'm gone wait here
Discover all of life's surprises
When I'm gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good smile
If you pass through my soul tonight
Gather all his troubles
Tomorrow's long eternal night
Gather for tomorrow
When I'm gone wait here
Discover all of earth's surprises
When I'm gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good smile
Between the cracks and hollows
The earth is good the earth is good
Between the cracks and hollows
The earth is good the earth is good
Lay down lay down lay down for me
Lay down lay down lay down with me
When I'm gone wait here
Discover all of lifes surprises
When I'm gone wait here
I'll send my child my last good bye
hey embrace me someone's gonna suffer
Lay lay lay it on lay lay lay it on me
Someone hey embrace me someone's gonna suffer
Sweet dreams my angel at last good bye
Sweet dreams
9. Last Exit For The Lost
Would you pay life's pleasures to see me
Does it hurt for I want you to remain
I run your hair through in another decade
Summerland holds me in sumerian haze
Pain in places where the lovers mourn
Arranging the play things up and down the hall
Forever remain for every day
My honour remains
Forever remain
Between the spaces along the wall
Appearing faces that disappear at dawn
We're getting closer I can see the door
Closer and closer Kthulhu calls
Forever remain
Forever remain
You'll seek it it'll take a while
You'll seek this if it's a thousand miles
Take what fate brings eternal and desire
I'll change those faces then I take their smile
We're getting close to you I can see the door
Closer and closer or is it there at all
Forever remain
Forever remain
This could be my last regress
Last exit for the lost
This could be my last regress
Last exit for the lost
This could be my last regress
Precious for the lost
