专辑:Tonight:Franz Ferdinand 艺人:Franz Ferdinand 厂牌:Sony 类型:Indie Rock/Brit-Pop/Post-punk 发行:2009-01-26
Franz Ferdinand乐队由4个帅小伙Alexander Kapranos、Nicholas McCarthy、Robert Hardy和Paul Thomson组成。这支来自苏格兰格拉斯哥的乐队2004年凭借自己的首张同名专辑震撼了整个英国摇滚乐坛。 等待四年,就是”今夜”。
还记得 04 年一首 Take Me Out 和紧接而来的同名专辑,让来自苏格兰格拉斯高的 Franz Ferdinand 成为家喻户晓之英国新团,也在同年拿下水星音乐奖殊荣。被外界定为一支 post-punk/new-wave revival 乐团,Franz Ferdinand 的确玩得衬职,不管从何角度切入,他们从内而外始终散发一股 80 年代才存有的英伦摇滚气息。
Tonight:Franz Ferdinand 一样围绕后庞克舞曲,不过和以往不同,他们想在其中放入了更多电子概念,这点从单曲 Ulysses、Live Alone 就可以窥之一二:跟着电子跳跃的鼓点和贝斯、藉由躁动的 vocal 和吉他带出新意,Lucid Dreams 则更胜一筹,用了长达三分钟的电气节拍收尾。尽管如此,专辑中仍保留像 No You Girls、Twilight Omens 等曲,让人一听就会联想到过去的 Franz Ferdinand。
不过最令人诧异的还是收尾,竟用 Katherine Kiss Me 有着温柔吉他伴奏的抒情作品,听来或许有点突兀,却也暗示新专辑中充满摆脱过去印象的企图。
Naming themselves after the archduke whose assassination sparked the First World War, the band mix grandeur and pretension with a shrewd pop touch. Their self-titled debut album didnt so much light up the charts as turn the sales book into an inferno, while follow-up You Could Have It So Much Better came equipped with a stunning arsenal of singles.
But then the trail goes cold. The band retreat to Glasgow, with the Franz Ferdinand citadel surrounded by the cloud of rumour as a thousand lesser acts go screaming up the charts only to fall back in a blaze of mediocrity.
Sitting idle since 2005, Tonight: Franz Ferdinand is an album long-delayed. Sessions with the slick pop machine Xenomania ended badly, forcing the group to spend longer on the album than they anticipated. During the prolonged downtime, the band began exploring new influences, adding electro, Afrobeat and 60s garage sounds to the studio jukebox.
Opening track and comeback single Ulysses encapsulates the drama of the bands return. Franz Ferdinand emerge from their hiatus with a bass-heavy intro, before Alex Kapranos familiar voice hisses and seethes from the speakers. As dancefloor friendly as a handshake with Erol Alkan, it name-checks James Joyces groundbreaking novel amid the refrain, I found a new way. At times gloriously over the top, it never loses its shrewd pop vision ending in a maelstrom of antique synths being pushed into the 21st Century.
This confusing blend of past and present runs through the throbbing veins of Tonight: Franz Ferdinand. The gentle African skank of Send Him Away rumbles along nicely, almost staining the coffee table with its polite Afrobeat mannerisms. But suddenly the band erupts into a frenetic Fela Kuti-style breakdown - like a circuit pushed to overloading, Send Him Away sparks and spasms into life.
Shimmering disco scenery dominates the landscape of this album. Producer Dan Carey recalls the adventurous spirit of the Moroder era, as the band battle creaking antique synths to find their true voice. Twilight Omens opens with an almost Daft Punk-inspired riff, before leaping headlong into groovy Roxy Music-style rhythm. This is an album that right from its title down to the last notes is bathed in moonlight, its skin bleached with the glitter of the disco ball.
The albums centrepiece is Lucid Dreams, possibly the most stunning and ambitious recording the band have put their names to. The vocals are hidden in the mix, allowing the runaway momentum of the song to gallop ahead of Kapranos. A triumph of Dareys production skills, Lucid Dreams threatens to spin off in almost a dozen different directions, held together by the rhythmic gravity of Paul Thomsons insistent drum beats. It runs for an epic seven minutes, shattering Franz Ferdinands pop framework into a thousand electronic fragments.
Refining and transcending their familiar pop formula, Tonight: Franz Ferdinand is the bands most complete work to date. Worth the wait, and in all honesty better than we could ever have hoped for.

1997年Owen Ashworth辍学美国电影学校之后,便一架简陋的卡西欧键盘开始创作,1998年以Casiotone For The Painfully Alone为名发布第一支单曲,紧接着在1999年和2001年发布两张完整专辑《Answering Machine Music》以及《Pocket Symphonies for Lonesome Subway Cars》,便开始了非比寻常的电子之路。在我看来Casiotone For The Painfully Alone的早期作品的题材主要是一些让人心疼的故事,lo-fi的感觉比较浓,显得有一些的破旧和模糊。而第五张新专辑《Advance Base Battery Life》在原有的基础上,给我带来了一些全新的试听感受,除了Lo-fi的感觉之外,整张加入了一些童真的色彩,轻快的电子节拍,不快不慢的节奏,男女声轮流上阵,坦率的歌词,很有一些冰岛电子大牌的感觉,让人欢喜,值得一提的是10到13首都是翻唱曲目,能把流行歌曲唱成这样,也蛮有意思的。如果你很喜欢xiu xiu,múm,或者The blow 等乐团,我相信这张《Advance Base Battery Life》会让你爱不释手。

The Appleseed Cast于1997年成立于美国南加州(目前总部设在堪萨斯州的劳伦斯),随后签约Deep Elm Records场牌,第二年发布第一张专辑《The End of the Ring Wars》,2002年的《Lost Songs》获得比较好的评价,2003年跳槽Tiger Style Records场,发布第六张专辑《Two Conversations》,这也是The Appleseed Cast在Tiger Style发布的唯一一张专辑,三年后在新东家The Militia Group场完成《Peregrine》,获得了巨大成功,给我留下了非常深刻的影响。The Appleseed Cast用了两年多的时间沉淀,终于在2008年7月宣布新专辑基本完成,并在2009年初完美呈现这张大碟《Sagarmatha》。这张专辑我最近一直在听,我挺喜欢的,不过和以往的专辑有了一些别样的感觉,可能是因为乐队有成员离开的原因吧,但相比之前的作品,这张《Sagarmatha》Post-Rock的味道浓了一些,我比较喜欢这张鼓点,以及微妙的电吉他,还有主唱的独到的声线,犹如远方传来的呼唤,挺不错的。

瑞士哥特工业团,第四张录音室专辑,黑色讽刺和玩世不恭的邪笑诅咒,从配器带着中东音乐色彩的《Pedo pedro》,到结尾主唱浑厚声线,魔鬼般念咒的《China,china》,与一般的哥特军工相比,这张专辑弥漫着更多黑色电子声场和冰冷的节奏,大量冰冷机械的Techn节拍,将节奏推向极致,个人感觉风格更倾向眼下西方流行的Electronic body music(电体音乐)。

Artist : New Rhodes Album : Everybody Loves A Scene Release : 2009.02.23 (UK) Label : Salty Cat Records Style : Indie Rock / Alternative Rock / New Wave / Garage Rock
New Rhodes的第2张专辑听的浑身爽快!真的很棒!不过说实话,他们早在去年11月便在日本独家发行了这张新作品,也许这与他们在日本的人气有关系,而2009年的新专宣传活动也自然而然从那里开始出发.我当初也的确期盼了许久,记得之前我也曾经对他们的新单曲Everybody Loves A Scene做过简短介绍,不知道大家喜不喜欢.自信饱满的穿透性嗓音使整张专辑倍增活力,当初凭借首专Songs From The Lodge初露锋芒,当然被指神似The Strokes也是一大焦点因素,不过似乎英国本土的歌迷并不买帐,就连NME当初也很少提及这支英国新军,不过好在乐队在日本终于熬出了头并且可以再次让我们欣赏到他们的新作品.不过说老实话,New Rhodes的音乐做的总是挺动听的.我也不是夸大,至少这张作品中让你印象深刻的歌曲不在少数,你会喜欢那种激荡的吉他Riff,痴迷那种时而明亮又时而浑厚的嗓音,听罢整张作品,心情非常愉悦,全面超过了乐队的首专!
