All Genres > Metal > Dark Ambient/Noise > FIELDS OF APLOMB: Nekromanteia

Produced by Kim Matthews at Gargoyle Studios, New York.

Nekromanteia is based on the writings of Eliphas Levi (1810 - 1875), a French occultist who helped revive interest in magic in the 19th century. Levi studied magic and practiced necromancy (an ancient art of conjuring the dead for the purpose of divination) on several occasions.

Fields of Aplomb are:
Steve Dargis - Percussion, Samplings, Vocals
Carolyn Baxter - Keyboards, Samplings, Bass Pedals, Violin
Creston Baker - Guitars, Vocals

Why is Nephilim's singer Carl McCoy credited on the CD?

Fields of Aplomb's second CD demonstrates sophisticated lyrics and mesmerizing music.
--Stephen Lang "L.A. Gothic Dragon Review"

A serious look at Magus Eliphas Levi's necromancy---disturbing the sacred ground of the paranormal.
--Valor Shadow "Witches and Warlocks"

A mix between the Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim, Cranes and the Swans. A great concept album for summoning the dead. --Samantha Livingston "Baltimore Underground"

This Album has, on multiple levels, a myriad of paths to new insights (if one chooses to look deeper into the intracate connections between the songs). Within 'Nekromanteia' is a complex puzzle--luring the listener to discover a new dimension, and leaving more questions. However, the answers you find may be more disturbing than one might wish to discover. --Steve Flemming "Association of Magic, Maryland Chapter"
