THE LIVING FIELDS Sign With CANDLELIGHT RECORDS

August 8, 2008

Candlelight Records has announced the signing of multi-national progressive doom-death outfit THE LIVING FIELDS. The trio, with members based in Chicago, London and Ottawa, has received early acclaim via their self-released 2004 and 2007 recordings. Now working on their Candlelight debut, currently titled "Running Out Of Daylight" and planned for release in early 2009, the band looks to take the next step in their still developing career.

"Candlelight has been very successful working with bands that defy convention," says guitarist Jason Muxlow regarding the band’s choice of label. "Their discography is filled with milestones. Their legacy undoubtably speaks for itself and we're thrilled to be part of their future."

Originally formed in 2002 by Muxlow, THE LIVING FIELDS have had their sound likened to that of MY DYING BRIDE, NOVEMBERS DOOM, and others. But with a twist. Together with vocalist Jon Higgs (also of MONSTERWORKS) and drummer Chad Walls (BRODEQUIN, ENTER SELF),Muxlow and THE LIVING FIELDS explore a wide range of sounds and styles utilizing a palette of guitar, drums, bass, strings, piano, and spine-chilling vocals that will amaze fans and critics worldwide.

THE LIVING FIELDS are the latest to join London-based Candlelight's growing US roster, a strong concentration of artist development for the rising label, distributed exclusively in the United States via Caroline/EMI, PHD Canada for the northern country and Plastichead Music for Europe.
