There is more than one artist with this name, so please leave the pic with both bands.
Il y a deux groupes du meme nom, alors, svp, laissez la photo avec les deux groupes, merci!
1. A British indie/twee pop group formed in 1989 and disbanded in 1996.
2. A French heavy metal band formed in 1994.
1. Heavenly was a 1990s twee pop band, originally forming in Oxford, England in 1989. Amelia Fletcher (vocals), Mathew Fletcher (drums; Amelia’s brother), Peter Momtchiloff (guitar) and Robert Pursey (bass) had all been members of Talulah Gosh, a key member of the c86 scene which preceded the twee movement, formed in 1986.
Heavenly debuted with the 7” single I Fell in Love Last Night, followed by another 7”, Our Love Is Heavenly, both released in 1990 on Sarah Records. Heavenly Vs. Satan, the group’s debut album, came out in 1991. At this stage in their career, Heavenly’s songs were still mainly concerned with an innocent view of love, whether or not requited, and the instrumentation remained very much the same jangly guitar style used by Talulah Gosh.
Before releasing the critically acclaimed Le Jardin de Heavenly, Cathy Rogers (keyboard, back-up vocals) joined the band. Her harmony vocals and keyboards became an integral part of the group’s sound. Another strikingly different element of the group’s second album was the inclusion of the track,
C Is the Heavenly Option, featuring the guest vocals of K Records founder Calvin Johnson, who released Heavenly’s records in the USA. The song even featured Amelia Fletcher rapping, after a fashion. Calvin Johnson would go on to provide additional guest vocals on each of the Heavenly albums following Le Jardin de Heavenly.

Actually, the insults tend to fly from both camps. Now and again there's more twee dudes dissing the metalheads, but with metal Heavenly releasing a new album it's no surprise to find an increase of their listeners popping over here, making it seem like it's one sided. Believe me. Having watched this shoutbox for two years I can tell you there's an equal amount of bickering. :P So, did I hear someone say Heavenly have covered Beethoven? :O Awesome. I was hoping they'd do a cheesy pop cover to match Elvenking's latest offering but I'll accept power classical. After all, I loved Dark Moor's epic Beethoven tribute The Moon from their Tarot album. Ten minutes of neoclassical awesomeness! I'm resisting the urge to listen to any tracks yet though. I always like to listen to an album in track order at once for the first listening.

''Amelia Fletcher on why they chose the name Heavenly - "Everyone was getting into loud rock, which I absolutely despised. So we came up with a group name that no one who liked loud rock could possibly like: a deliberately cissy name" just when i thought i couldn't love them any more.... and why does everyone care so much about the pictures? from some of your shouts it seems like someones literally stabbed you in the heart cause they changed them. and whats with the ( albeit lame) insults french metal listeners? it's not like you hear many insults about your goddamn band on here... oh those stupid ''tewee pooh kids'' right gabrielshield>??!. urgh.

So Dec 18th it is :) Always trust the label.....

Amazon say 18th December. Nov 2009 was announced at Metalstorm earlier this year. Now they say 25th november. Wikipedia say 18th December, information they attribute to blabbermouth.net. Heavenly's label (AFM) have a German website, but even after running it through Google Translate I can clearly see the release date as 18th December. I'm guessing the label themselves are as official as it gets so... all those sites claiming November... Shame on you!

I like to think that there aren't actually two bands called Heavenly, just the twee pop outfit went in a strange new artistic direction this millenium.

I just corrected amazon who have the album available for preorder as "Heavenly" by "Carpe Diem". Sigh. They did a similar thing with Elvenking's last album, called it "Two Tragic Poets" when the album cover on the same page clearly states "Two Tragedy Poets". Those guys need to start paying attention to detail.

we already went over the split thing, guys. most people on here don't care about this war or even know it exists. most listeners won't change their tags so it'd be useless to do.. i don't want to retag my mp3s to scrobble. you know, these aren't the only bands with this problem, and other pages manage to get along just fine (like bis, there's the scottish band and then the japanese one). i'm a twee fan. i think the twee group did more for music than the metal band seems to have, but the metal band indeed has a presence in their scene. everyone vote up the split pic. it is only fair.
