Angelic Conversation: “Will We Come Now?”

 

Back in 2010, Phallus Dei released A Day in the Life of Brian Wilson, which I posted here. The day begins with "Dawn (prologue)" & ends with "Dusk (epilogue)". Two songs feature the astounding Clara Engel on vocals Two songs feature the last recordings of Walker Brothers founding member John Walker (John Joseph Maus) on vocals...the previously mentioned "Dusk (epilogue)" as well as "Will You Come Now". 

 

"Will You Come Now" became a minor classic for Phallus Dei. The following year the band released Love, with the Tiniest Red Torch, Branded to Your Heart (Will You Come Now: Remixed) on Big Blue Records. It contained seven different versions of the song including a new Phallus Dei remix. A Phallus Dei self-released four-song Will You Come Now EP offered by the band consisted of two of the LwtTRTBtYHT tracks with two additional tracks, Der Blutharsch & the Infinite Church of the Leading Hand remix & an alternate Phallus Dei remix. Then in 2016 Nostalgie de la Boue released Vapour Unwinds the Dolls which was another six remixes including a different Phallus Dei remix. 

 

I have compiled the original two versions, the seven Big Blue remixes, the two WYCN EP alternate tracks, & the six Nostalgie versions. For your heart-wrenching pleasure. In the order of my preference. R.I.P. John Maus. Will you come now?
