The Eden House
Smoke & Mirrors + Other Ghosts
2xCD and 2xLP
The Eden House reissue their acclaimed 2009 debut Smoke & Mirrors album as a remastered and expanded edition with six additional tracks, on 2xLP. (2xCD also available)
The Eden House is a collaborative project, led by guitarist Steve Carey. It came about when Carey and Tony Pettitt, Fields of the Nephilim bassist were playing in goth-rock band NFD and needed an outlet for their own wider musical tastes, including prog rock, trip hop and dub. Deciding to avoid having one lead singer, they sought out unique female vocalists to co-write with.
Julianne Regan of All About Eve had previously collaborated with Carey, and an invite was quickly accepted. Monica Richards, of US band Faith & the Muse, was another contact. Evi Vine was known to Tony and making a name in the London scene, as was French émigré Amandine Ferrari.
Tony enlisted former Nephilim bandmates: Paul Wright, Peter Yates, Alexander Wright and Simon Rippin all assisted the recording sessions. Violinist Bob Loveday, of Van Morrison & Penguin Café Orchestra, and drummer Bob Irwin, of Nick Lowe & Johnny Cash, were found at the Goldtop Studio downstairs at Jungle. Once the album was completed, for mastering Tony called Andy Jackson, the Nephilim producer & Pink Floyd engineer. Andy liked it so much he joined the band on second guitar, in time for their live debut and a live video
Smoke & Mirrors led to them becoming a touring band with Evi & Amandine, headlining festivals across the UK and Europe, often as an 8-piece. Over the years they’ve had many more releases including 3 albums and continued lineup changes. A new album The Starless Sea is almost complete and will be issued in the near future.

Disc Two: 11. Freakshow; 12. Burn; 13. Maelstrom (inst.); 14. Half-Light; 15. Killer; 16 To Believe in Something (Redshifted)

PLEASE READ THE SMALL PRINT BEFORE YOU BUY:POSTAGE
The amount we charge is what we expect to pay plus approx 15-40p for packing materials.
There's NO such thing as 'free postage'! Prices include 20% VAT on the postage as well as the goods, ebay then take commission of 8-10% - on the item, postage AND the VAT... and then ask you whether our postage charges are 'fair'. We don't 'include' postage, otherwise we can't offer reduced postage for multiple items...
MULTIPLE ITEMS POSTAGE
For multiple items, there will be an automatic reduction in postage costs of 50% of further items postage. BUT make sure you order them together, not individually: FIRST ADD THEM ALL TO YOUR CART.
If you want to wait for an accurate calculation: MAKE SURE you're on the ebay.CO.UK site, not an overseas one. Put ALL the items into your basket, then go to 'Contact Seller'. Click on the 'Request total from seller' button. We'll then weigh and recalculate your combined items postage and send you an invoice. This may take a day or two; the postage may or may not calculate as less.
DELIVERY TIME excludes weekends and Bank Holidays, which may be different in the UK from elsewhere.
Packets to overseas destinations (particularly Italy, Russia, South America) often take longer than advertised due to local customs delays.
OVERSEAS POST is by Royal Mail Air Mail Small Packet or parcel. Look for Ebay's GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAMME in certain countries - it'll be cheaper. A TRACKING number should get automatically marked against your order. If your order is over £50 value and you'd like to add a Signed For or Insured service. WE ADVISE A SIGNED-FOR SERVICE FOR ALL BRAZIL ORDERS.
Ebay will update your order once it is sent, with tracking details there.
PACKAGING: For vinyl we use sturdy card cruciforms, not envelopes, and if not shrinkwrapped we remove discs from sleeves, to avoid sleeve splits. For CDs we use corrugated cardboard, not jiffy bags.
