Biography
Queen Elizabeth is a collaborative experimental project between Thighpaulsandra and Julian Cope. The general concept behind Queen Elizabeth was a "sonic ritual" in which sounds, melodies and other sonic properties would collide and dance together. Both releases, 1994's Queen Elizabeth and 1997's double-disc Queen Elizabeth 2: Elizabeth Vagina, consist mostly of half-hour long tracks which are mainly ambient with short bursts of Krautrock. The three discs (and seven tracks) are the band's only output, yet a song which appeared on Thighpaulsandra's I, Thighpaulsandra was a revamped version of a track destined for a third Queen Elizabeth release. Cope has said that Thighpaulsandra's version went above and beyond the original recording they made together.
