专辑介绍:
Low是Vernon Yard旗下的三人乐队,其音乐如其名字,是我所听过的最简约、最低调的摇滚乐,最大的声响也不超过古典音乐中的室内乐。他们有意地在音符之间留出空隙,把悠悠的时间和空间一并编织入他们的音乐中。简洁、恍惚的吉他和贝司,若有若无的鼓点,Alan Sparhawk和Mimi Parker伉俪吟唱出梦呓般的优美旋律。他们好象用神奇的 棱镜,将各种复杂的声音分解成稀疏的、最简单的乐韵,安静如幽幽森林里微风的呼吸,清澈如缓缓溪水中蓝天的倒影。Low每一首歌的歌词都不长,就象几行意识流诗韵。
别误会这是不痛不痒的轻音乐或催眠曲。用心聆听,Low能带给你忧伤、不安和沉思(甚至失眠),Alan也承认他们的音乐有时会使人联想起The Cure早期的晦暗、压抑的作品,比如Seventeen Seconds和Faith。不知道是不是巧合,事实上有很多Low的乐迷同时也是The Cure的死硬派拥趸。在芝加哥的Michael十几岁就开始迷恋The Cure的音乐,现在他既是The Cure的huge fan,又是Alan和Mimi的亲密朋友(多么令人羡慕)。他告诉我一件有趣的事:他的一个朋友的女友,在听Low的音乐时竟入迷得忘了呼吸,等那首歌结束时她都快窒息了,这才大口地喘气。(文字转)
这张其实去年7月就有空间到手,只是后来因为换了工作硬盘全部格掉。现在又找来发布出来,希望大家会喜欢。
For The Great Destroyer, their 2005 Sub Pop debut (and 7th album overall), Low quickened their paces and rustled up a new sound. Producer Dave Fridmann helped out in '05 and is back for Drums and Guns, Low's 2007 follow up, a return to pre- Great Destroyer form. Slowing down again and training the musical lamps on Mimi Parker and Alan Sparhawk's austere voices, the trio sets a decidedly somber tone (the album's opening line, delivered with pregnant pauses: "All soldiers, they're all gonna die/And all the little babies, they're all gonna die" and album-closing song titles: "Murderer" and "Violent Past"). Parker and Sparhawk's voices enchant eerily, a whiff of electonica here and a haunted handclap there melding with Matt Livingston's bass to give the music some dark, gorgeous machine undertones--stark, martial, and noise-brushed at once. Fridmann finds all kinds of places to add tone, color and sound, keeping the tempos slow and the mood hypnotic. This is the art that wartime breeds. --Andrew Bartlett
Formed in 1993, Low is from Duluth, Minnesota, and features Alan Sparhawk on vocals and guitar, Mimi Parker on vocals and drums, and Matt Livingston on bass and vocals. Sparhawk and Parker are married with two children; they first met in fourth grade in rural Minnesota. Drums and Guns is the band's eighth full-length album and second for Sub Pop. It's also, after 2005's The Great Destroyer, the second album they've recorded with producer Dave Fridmann. Drums and Guns features a number of songs that ardent Low fans will recognize from the band's recent live shows. These songs appear here in substantially altered forms, as though they've been taken apart and reassembled in striking new ways, or seen with new eyes. Or, given the lyrical emphasis on murder and death, a more insightful interpretation might see the band killing these songs and bringing them back to life anew. There's no contrivance here, however. While these songs feature new elements (looped vocals, drum machines, etc.) and are thoroughly, radiantly contemporary, they remain undeniably Low's. Drums and Guns possesses the unique, subtle beauty and power we've come to expect from Low, but the record is also profoundly exciting in ways that it's easy to forget music can be.
