Fields Of The Nephilim

Real Name:
Carl McCoy
Profile:
Formed in Stevenage, Hertfordshire (UK) in 1984, Fields Of The Nephilim were a distinctive goth rock band that incorporated psychedelic and progressive elements until their eventual split in 1991.

Following the split, vocalist Carl McCoy pursued his Nefilim, The project, whilst the remainder of the band began their new venture Rubicon (3) with vocalist Andy Delany.

In 1998 rumours of a Fields Of The Nephilim reunion were announced but failed to see the light of day. In 2002 Jungle Records released a number of recordings without the consent of McCoy, who alongside 'ghost musicians', eventually wrote and recorded the Mourning Sun album (2006). The band performs infrequently to this day.

Original members Nod and Paul Wright Currently play in Last Rites (2) whilst Tony Pettit and Peter Yates have been involved with NFD.
