Kimya Dawson — 艺术家 (10)
Remember That I Love You [音乐] 豆瓣
7.9 (9 个评分) Kimya Dawson
发布日期 2006年1月1日 出版发行: K Records (Cargo Records)
听Kimya Dawson唱歌,我经常担心她的舌头会不会因为倒腾的太快而突然抽筋。这不是玩笑话。一个三十出头的女人还能像个神经质的二十岁小姑娘一样,唱歌像说话一样随性。我听过不少女人女孩的声音,Kimya Dawson绝对不算抢耳的。但我越来越发现有意思的声音总是特不容易给人真诚的感动。而Dawson就好象是坐在你对面唱歌,口腔、嗓音的每个细小变化她都不加修饰的让你察觉。你能清晰的感到她的自信,这不是说Remember That I Love You是一张自大的专辑,也不是出于她发了5张专辑老道的自居,而是一种无论何时你都能感到她都能笑呵呵的面对生活中的一切始终保持简单快乐信条的生活态度。她是个很容易使听她音乐的人们觉得窝心的人,没有什么凝重的施加,只是传达简单的快乐。这对每天耳朵接受不同程度扭曲摧残的人们来说,无疑会像看到夏天夜空中的星星一样闪亮而可爱。Kimya Dawson的歌词写的很自我,特别生活化,有时很朋克,“and I’ll say f**k Bush and f**k this war”,有时又事无巨细的。这就是她,和她的生活,真诚正是源自于此。

On break from Rough Trade and her band The Moldy Peaches, our friend Kimya Dawson finds herself at home on Important Records, releasing two full-length albums at once. Both are full of moving original folk songs about Atari 2600s, love, growing up, growing old, overcoming hardships and Matlock. Dawson is one of the most genuine voices in modern music and the superstar of NYC's anti-folk scene. Knock, Knock Who? finds Dawson stronger and more confident than ever before.

My Cute Fiend Sweet Princess [音乐] 豆瓣
发布日期 2004年8月3日 出版发行: Important Records
Obviously, Kimya Dawson's solo albums are highly recommended to fans of the Moldy Peaches, but don't expect sex and drug jokes. These albums are more serious, transcending the novelty and humor of the Peaches. Embracing nostalgia, melancholy and sincerity, Dawson proves as unique as she is brilliant, creating an album that is both compelling and charismatic: an instant anti-folk classic. #4 In Time Out New York’s Top 10 of 2003 and #9 on Robert Christgau’s Dean’s List in the Village Voice.

Alphabutt follows up the highly successful soundtrack, JUNO, which featured many of Dawson's songs. Alphabutt succeeds by being tender and vulnerable, silly and raw while maintaining the intimacy and sense of community that has become so special to both fans and critics.

Kimya Dawson/Matty Pop Chart [音乐] 豆瓣
Kimya Dawson / Matty Pop Chart
发布日期 2006年3月7日 出版发行: K. Records
On her debut for the International Pop Underground series, Dawson releases this split EP with friend and touring companion Matty Pop Chart, a.k.a. Matt Tobey. "My Mom" and "Underground" will appear on her upcoming record, "Remember That I Love You" (April 2006). Kimya continues to do what she does best: dealing with the harsh realities of life by writing humorous and darkly lyrical songs. On this 7-inch, she explores death. Matty combines unconventional instruments such as the accordion and a bike horn with his unusually whimsical voice to create weird and wonderful pop songs. "Child Of The Sea" is full of imagery of sheep, geese, and sci-fi, while saying to us, "be true to yourself and be proud of it", while "Thailand Song" challenges you to examine the things around you.
