Album Description
Available in:
"Nightingale" is the second studio album by the folk rock project Erland and the Carnival, released in 2011 on the Full Time Hobby label. It album combines British folk themes with original rock music, and received largely positive reviews." Dusted Magazine stated that "Nightingale is a distinctive exemplar of folk revivalism for the age of indie."
The album was recorded on board HMS President, a warship moored on the River Thames. According to the band, they at times tried to replicate strange noises made inside the ship. Stated Tong, "You could hear other boats passing by up the Thames. You could hear the propeller noises. It had all these weird super psychedelic sounds...We put all these contact mics around in the space we were recording in and just tried to capture it. And you'd take what you'd done home that night and have a listen to it and there'd be these weird things on the mics. Like 'What is that? I don't know ,but it's definitely going to stay.'"
Whereas the previous album by the band was replete to allusions to old ballads and folk songs, Nightingale is primarily original tracks. On its cover is a relatively famous photo of Janet Hodgson flying across her bedroom, supposedly by a poltergeist. Frontman Cooper claims the art reflects the album's music, as the band was "trying to create a soundtrack to an imaginary horror film about the supernatural."
