i'm surprised there isn't any thread about it yet!
i haven't heard their latest album, but i really love the first two... one of the best bands i discovered this year, along with Mr Bungle, Cibo Matto and some others...
very sensual voice and a trippy ambiance... are they popular here?

i love their music. i've got all their albums. i like the early stuff, but the last two albums blow those away, imo.

I've got one of their albums, The Dreams that Breathe Your Name, and it's slick, I like what'sherface's smoky voice. What's their best?

it's hard to say... i think it's about even between Dreams and Queen of the Meadow. both of those albums are outstanding.

i really can't recommend this band highly enough. whatever the genre is, this group gets "best of genre award" from me.

well, i'm glad you like it! i don't know if i'd compare it to the swans, personally... the swans feel very big to me, elysian fields very intimate. maybe that's just my perspective.

Fuckable. Jumpin' Jesus Jones.
I've heard all their albums now, great stuff. Bleed Your Cedar is definitely the best. Been downhill since then so I think they should retire and send the girl to me.

after a google search i found out you can listen to three tracks here... the page has a really crappy unpractical layout (on Firefox at least) but it's in "audio/video".

Elysian Fields latest full length "Bum Raps and Love Taps" to be released September 27, 2005 in Europe! The record will be out on the Naive label, and available in most European countries Sorry all you fans in the U.S. , you'll have to hold on a little longer, or there's always imports...

that's a really good tune... they seem to have a lot of diverse styles they incorporate in their music... you might still like some of the other songs from that album Queen Of The Meadow. "Bayonne" and "Rope Of Weeds" come to mind. i love those nice, really soft songs...
