Songs of Moors and Misty Fields (1997) is the second album by the German band Empyrium.

Elaborating on their previous full-length album, A Wintersunset... released a year before, with Songs of Moors... Empyrium delve into a more sophisticated intricacy of what is sometimes called "romantic metal", offering a complicated mix of percussion, flutes, bass guitars and synths, together with its will-be trademark deep baritone male vocals performed by Schwadorf himself (who also plays virtually all the instrument parties, except for keyboards).https://www.ccmusic.com/songs-of-moors-and-misty-fields/884388700765

The band's following two albums, Where at Night the Wood Grouse Plays (1999) and Weiland (2002), are purely acoustic.
