Obscure Christian hard rock band formed by Joe Albanese, who went on to start Elder and Fell Desire. The two albums FLC put out are as follows: Dreams, Daughters, and Sons - Nevermore (1994) Proletariat Poetry - Frozen Rope Records (1995) "In 1991,... Joe Albanese and Willie Dizon formed Four Living Creatures, an aggressively dark Christian rock band,... Four Living Creatures experienced the typical mixed reactions to their shows and the typical lack of enthusiasm from record labels to music that dealt with the scarier moment of Christian life. But the band persevered, recorded their first full-length release, borrowed a Picasso for the cover (from his blue period, natch), and drew the interest of Brad Wells, who had an indie venture at the time called Frozen Rope. Wells contacted gray dot for distribution of the Four Living Creatures record as well as one by Harry Gore, and gray dot began to market the release, as unique to its genre as was "Shaded Pain" to its in the eighties. "And then the band broke up. The stress of the road exacerbated existing tensions, and Four Living Creatures played their final show in Atlanta. A splinter band eventually signed to R.E.X. as Sweet Nectar, temporarily occupying Dizon's attentions. However, in 1997, Dizon left Sweet Nectar, and reunited with Albanese and his wife since 1992, Cat, as well as Jonathan Maple on drums, and Bryan Whitfield, who had just ended a long fight to be released from the Air Force as a conscientious objector after he converted to Christianity. The band moved into a communal home, following the example of early church models, and recorded [the Elder album] "Used to be Adorable" under the guidance and financial support of Pastor David Alexander from their local church home, Abundant Life."
