加拿大独立摇滚乐队拱廊之火(Arcade Fire)即将于8月2日发行专辑《郊外》(The Suburbs)。在推出两张成功的专辑之后，拱廊之火的第三张录音室专辑非常让歌迷期待。
《郊外》华丽的开篇唱到：“当我年轻的时候，希望有个女儿，我想牵着她的手，给她看美好的事物，在一切被破坏以前。”这种闲聊式的独白通常会以民谣来表达，拱廊之火却将它与体育馆摇滚结合起来，鼓点和键盘的旋律就像洪水一样滚滚而来。看来这才是赶时髦和尼尔扬结合的方式。和他们的音乐导师U2、布鲁斯·斯普林斯汀不同，拱廊之火对生活细节不感兴趣。当巴特勒唱到开车去休斯顿时，他只是说“我们听到引擎失灵的声音”，而斯普林斯汀则会告诉你到底是哪个零件出了问题(例如《Racing in the Street》<街头比赛>)。但这正是拱廊之火广受欢迎的原因之一，他们邀您共同体验解决问题的经过和成功后的喜悦。
《郊外》中的很多歌曲描绘了乐队对现实生活的体验。在《洛可可》中，夏莎妮和队友们用和声绝妙演绎了热情消退的过程。《准备开始》是独立乐队为名望所累的写照，巴特勒在歌中埋怨：“生意人，他们喝我们的血/就像艺术学校的孩子们一样。”让他失去信任的不只是艺术学校的孩子们，还有混乱的世界：“他们在70年代建造的所有房屋最终倒塌/毫无意义”。说到70年代，拱廊之火的音乐家们显然是从父辈收藏的德国艺术摇滚唱片中获得了灵感，这使得《准备开始》和《五月》这样的快歌显得格外简洁和均衡。《五月》这样描述那些不买账的摇滚观众：“孩子们紧抱着胳膊站着那里”。这句歌词原本会变成一个类似“滚出我的草坪”的长句，结果只用一个生动的画面就表达出来了。《深蓝》用华丽的钢琴来营造情绪，很像大卫·邦威的《Hunky Dory》(匈牙利渔船)。在那张专辑中，邦威用非常私人的视角讲述了父母和子女的关系。《郊外》的结尾是充满柔情和怜悯的，因为尽管有太多的哀与怒，拱廊之火从来没有远离过那些父母和孩子们。

Ask Mitski Miyawaki about happiness and she'll warn you: "Happiness fucks you." It's a lesson that's been writ large into the New Yorker's gritty, outsider-indie for years, but never so powerfully as on her newest album, 'Puberty 2'. "Happiness is up, sadness is down, but one's almost more destructive than the other," she says. "When you realise you can't have one without the other, it's possible to spend periods of happiness just waiting for that other wave." On 'Puberty 2', that tension is palpable: a both beautiful and brutal romantic hinterland, in which one of America's new voices hits a brave new stride.

Angel Olsen is an American singer-songwriter and musician from St. Louis, Missouri who lives in Asheville, North Carolina. To date, Olsen has released five studio albums: Half Way Home, Burn Your Fire for No Witness, My Woman, All Mirrors and Whole New Mess.

Skeleton Tree began its journey in late 2014 at Retreat Studios, Brighton, with further sessions at La Frette Studios, France in autumn 2015. The album was mixed at AIR Studios, London in early 2016.
The songs from the album are featured in the film One More Time With Feeling, directed by Andrew Dominik (Chopper, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, Killing Them Softly). The film was comissioned by Nick Cave and is to be the only public statement to accompany the albums’ release.
Given event's in his personal life prior to the release of the album, it's understandable that this album is sombre affair. Although accompanied by a film, it is an album in its own right, rather than a soundtrack. Having said that, the orchestration which forms the backdrop to Nick's rich, half spoken - half sung narratives, has a similar cinematic feel to the haunting, atmospheric film scores that Nick and Bad Seed Warren Ellis excel at.
It’s probably not going to be your choice of listening prior to a night out on the town, but if it’s darkness you’re after, no one does that better than Nick.
A beautiful, moving album.

The new album Tell Me How You Really Feel follows her critically acclaimed 2015 debut album Sometimes I Sit And Think And Sometimes I Just Sit, and a recent top 10 collaborative record, Lotta Sea Lice, with Kurt Vile. One of the most distinctive voices in music, Courtney is known for mixing witty observations with unflinching self-assessment - fast forward to now and although all of the cleaver turns of phrase and an eye for story telling are still there; this new collection of songs see a more serious and outwardly tone capturing the current social landscape yet still retaining moments of intimacy and warmth. As the world becomes more familiar with Courtney Barnett these songs feel comforting and emphatic yet that raw energy and the ability to make the listener think still remain.

The 11 all-new original songs were written by Lewis and recorded at Capitol Records’ Studio B, andfeature a backing band of legendary talent including Beck, Benmont Tench, Don Was, Jim Keltner, Ringo Starr and Ryan Adams.

Alabama Shakes’ Sound & Color is the follow-up to the band's Gold-certified debut album, Boys & Girls, which earned the group three GRAMMY nominations, including a nod for Best New Artist. Sound & Color demonstrates the tremendous strides made by a group of musicians who had only been playing together for a few months when they recorded their first album. From the searing single "Don't Wanna Fight" to the garage-rock freak-out on “The Greatest” to the psychedelic space jam “Gemini,” Alabama Shakes build on the soulful blues-rock base and map a surprising, innovative new direction.

The album is incredibly broad in range, refusing to be defined by one idea. From the uncompromising Yuk Foo to the infectious Beautifully Unconventional and Don’t Delete The Kisses, a dizzyingly romantic track which shows their progression and maturity as songwriters. Visions Of A Life is not an album of clichés. It is packed with surprises for those who think they know Wolf Alice. A darker, bolder, more diverse release from the biggest breakthrough independent band of recent years.

Purple Mountains is the new nom-de-rock of David Berman from the Silver Jews. Purple Mountains is also the name of what will be known as one of his greatest albums – full of double-jointed wit and wisdom, up to the neck in his special recipe of hand-crafted country-rock joys and sorrows that sing legendary in cracked and broken hearts. The songs are produced impeccably by Woods’ Jarvis Taveniere and Jeremy Earle, buffed up like a hardwood floor ready to be well-trod upon for an evening of romance and dance.
Berman’s songwriter’s bone’s never been laid more bare, either – if redemption doesn’t come on the lyric sheet, the act of putting these songs into singing, dancing form allows them their nest end – to provide infotainment for others, embodying moments of life and truth via music that elevates with disarming warmth and a reassuring commonality, even as David himself stands outside the communal campfires.

草东2023年新专辑

Chinese Football是一支于2011年在武汉成立的独立摇滚乐队。
冲出亚洲，走向世界，全力以赴，体无完肤。Chinese Football是一个无比真诚的玩笑，一个成立于2011年愚人节的真人游戏，他们是四个来自东方芝加哥的年轻人，他们是97一代国足的噪音遗产与97世代独立摇滚的回响余温。
Chinese Football所有的作品都在讲述同一个故事：一个幻想及其挫败。这些简单/糅杂/流畅/生涩的音乐中充斥着说话（在蒸发）、梦想（在坍塌）、热血（仍未冷）、呐喊（怯意地）。
这样一支令人崩溃的纠结体乐队自然也拥有令人崩溃的音乐源流与亲缘系谱：骨子里流淌着Envy/Fugazi的硬核热血，又在Jimmy eat world/Get up kids的陪伴下度过了矫情的青春期，想像Number girl/Cap 'n jazz那样一路横冲直撞，又难以割舍The Sea and Cake/Yo La Tengo般甜美旋律，但归根结底，他们仍是一支貌似高冷志在洗脑的热血流行天团。

少年不識愁滋味，為賦新詞強說愁。好似灑脫卻充滿框架，好似追求、期盼什麼卻只是不斷印證自己的可笑一般。其實就是醜奴兒自己心裡的對話與拉扯，希望能藉由歌詞的意境，讓悲傷的人看見自己的模樣，在片刻抒發後，認清自我。總體而言，文字創作的方面，我們希望以文字作為一面鏡子反面對照自我，也許表面較為負面但期盼人們依舊能意識到作為一個「人」不該遺忘的本質。
