Our revels now are ended

Editorial Reviews
San Francisco Weekly, 01/99
"McFadden's guitar playing would stand out in any enviroment; it negotiates the terrain between flamenco, spaghetti western, and acid rock with ease. Add to that trait his distinctively rasped voice and macabre lyrical sensibility and you have a blend that has made Liar, and now The Eric McFadden Experience, a local favorite."

About the Artist
The Eric McFadden Experience was voted "Best Americana Band" by the readers of San Francisco Weekly magazine in 1998. The "Wammie" award was a bit of a misnomer in that European influences such as flamenco, baroque, classical and gypsy share the company of American roots influences such as blues, jazz, carnival, country, circus and pop.

Album Description
"Our Revels Are Now Ended" is a new CD transcending that which is typical in music today. It is a sumptuous piece of work taking the listener on a journey through brilliant tonal landscapes and melodies of misanthropic carnival incantations.

    The Eric McFadden Experience is busy exploring the carnival-ey darkness that Tom Waits only touches upon--and they do a commanding job with EVERY SINGLE SONG. Our Revels Are Now Ended is something straight out of Katherine Dunn's Geek Love, but much more vivid and appealing. I don't usually write reviews, but this album is worth it!

    5 out of 5 stars Sonically beautiful. Mesmerizing and hypnotic. Far out!.......1999-08-20

    This is the best album yet from Eric McFadden and Co. Eric is recognized as possibly the finest guitarist in the Bay Area for good reason. The songs on this disk range from insane clown music (Sicko's Bed and Breakfast) to dark and beautiful (If all is lost, the Nothing Song) to manic (Freaks Like Us) to just plain excellent (all of it) and it is all done by world class musicians, comfortable in their positions on this sophmore offering. Definitely my favorite album of 1999 and my friends say I am extremely picky about music.

    Are you sick of the pablum you are being fed? If not go get the new Ricky Martin cd and see ya! If you want to hear what's going to happen with your musical future, (a future of smart and brazen folk punk), then you should get this album, turn off your stupid box and give it a good listen.

    The dark yet romantic soundscape on this record has a suprisingly lifting quality to it....even my Dad likes it. The carnival-like atmosphere takes me on a dreamlike journey to a dark yet comfortable place. I want more! -Robin
