Fields Of The Nephilim – have just announced supports for 40th anniversary tour

Fields Of The Nephilim rise again, stepping into the light next month for five very special shows, including a Halloween headline performance at the sold-out Tomorrow’s Ghost festival in Whitby and culminating in London on Nov 1st, to celebrate Samhain.

Featuring music and moments from throughout Fields Of The Nephilim’s storied existence, these five performances serve to reanimate the past and generate the next chapter for both the band and their faithful followers.

Carl McCoy reflects, “It’s been 40 years since we released ‘Burning The Fields’ in 1985, our first 12” vinyl EP. 

In the early 80s we performed at many clubs, venues and any stage that would have us. We had no record deal, no distribution, but we managed to scrape together enough dosh to enable us to record four songs in a small studio, which was XXX Studios in Acton, London, and then released the EP under our own Tower Release label.

We only had 500 pressed, and I remember the cover and centre labels were all folded and glued by the band members. If you happen to have one of these official original release versions, your cover and labels have probably come apart or decomposed by now.

We are not planning on performing or releasing an anniversary version of this; I think we will lay this one to rest. Those fields have been burnt.

The shows this autumn are more about commemorating my four decades of Fields Of The Nephilim. A perfect reason to celebrate this season in 2025.”

Fields Of The Nephilim will be joined by alternative heroes Balaam And The Angel and Claytown Troupe as well as acclaimed gothic Americana band Heathen Apostles.
