森林合唱樂團Forests The Moon is Man
是什麼樣的音樂用眼睛也可以理解？Forests森林合唱團。
由Boyz&Girl及落日飛車成員組成，從團名到曲風都無法一言以蔽之。
Jon彈吉他唱歌，國國背着貝斯、尊龍打鼓這樣鐵三角的組合
已經出現在許多演出場 合或是樂團組合中，
或許你已經非常熟悉他們讓人摸不著頭緒的風格，但忍不住次次被震撼到、帥到，
因為在心中找不到恰當的詞彙形容；
又或者只是在2012年Death Cab for Cutie或Yuck的演唱會中驚鴻一瞥，
根本還不知到他們在鬼吼鬼叫個什麼勁，只記得耳朵摀住了還是好大聲。
這幾年來生活上、音樂上的碰撞終於讓這三個人發行了
第一張專輯《the moon is man》，
已經不想再花篇幅贅述什麼曲風成熟、演奏技巧精湛、專輯設計有質感等等之類的事情。
只能告訴你，Forests是各方面的大躍進，
所謂的⎡新一代⎦的搖滾樂其實態度上就應該這麼勇往直前，
沒有無謂的包袱，破音很大聲，有時候用Pizza盒打鼓，
可能未來可以在美國的音樂祭欣然和他們見面。
他們絕對不是唱著希望之歌大步邁前，更似拖著遲疑不決的步伐，
在幽暗潮溼的沼地，在無味和絕望之中找尋那麼一點原始新鮮感。
他們用無數個工作天寫歌錄音，撿拾音符，埋頭苦幹。
玩音樂對他們而言自然不過，⎡就是這樣啊⎦是他們對大部分問題的回答。
不跟你廢話創作理念和難以定位的名詞，
你看過表演就可以從能量破表的現場中體會出，音樂可以用聽的
也可以用看的，希望你們的小宇宙也可以跟著他們的音樂一起擴張。

21 Singles is a compilation album by the alternative rock band The Jesus and Mary Chain, released in 2002. As the title proclaims, it contains 21 of the band's singles in order of their release, from their fifteen year career, including several tracks from Psychocandy.

This album contains two concert performances, from March 28th 1992, Sheffield Arena and April 19th 1995, Trinity Bristol. 19 tracks. Strange Fruit. 2003.

於2005年由 Jack Leung (主音及結他）及 Nic Wong (主音及結他）組成的 The Yours 是一隊結他噪音樂隊，
風格界乎於punk rock 與 noise pop 之間。曾經為The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Drums, Yuck 等樂隊的暖場嘉賓。
樂隊於2006年推出EP <Abraham>。成員經過數次轉變，現時的陣容包括 Gwyneth Tang (主音及結他), Tim Ng (結他),
及Nelson Ko（鼓手）。
2012年夏天The Yours即將推出首張大碟 <The Way We Were>。
Hot and humid, bitter and sweet.
The Yours translates the subtropical summer of Hong Kong into a dreamy wall of noise
with raw sprawling punk rock sensibilities. Having supported the likes of The Jesus and Mary Chain,
The Drums and Yuck for an idea of like-minded sound. Long after the release of their well-received debut EP 'Abraham'
in 2005, the band's lineup evolved alongside with its composing structure, but still remains fuzzy and pop.
The layered guitar and structured noise are the result of their shared admiration towards Sonic Youth,
Smashing Pumpkins and My Bloody Valentine. Their debut 13-song album "The Way we Were"” resonates the deviation and
devotion of adolescent angst.

Kraut ripulito e aggiornato, scomparso l'odore marcio dell'afghano si sente giusto quello di synth un po' ammuffiti, ma fa solo piacere. Ha uno spirito d'annata ma suona odierno, non è strettamente vintage. Buona costruzione melodica, bei suoni, ritmi variegati, l'album (coinciso quanto basta) si lascia ascoltare tutto con vero piacere, in particolare dalla traccia 4 in cui prende il volo. Forse manca il pezzo forte di per sé (qualche picco: Saturn at 85, The Blood), ma accetto l'album gradevole nel complesso.

介质为1CD！内附歌词！
兵马司唱片（Maybe Mars） 厂牌的第三张出品，是北京三人乐队Snapline的首张专辑《Party Is Over，Pornostar》。
由歌手陈曦、低音结他手李维思以及结他兼键琴手李青（她也是Carsick Cars 的团员） 所组成的Snapline，他们为当年发起No Beijing乐潮的四支乐团之一。外界把他们概括为一支Post-Punk乐伍，聆听其《Party Is Over，Pornostar》专辑时，总不难寻见师承自Joy Division、P.I.L.、The Cure的音乐熏陶而来，加上他们的歌曲又是全英语主唱，Snapline身上的英伦Post-Punk甚至是Art Punk底蕴之浓烈，乃毋庸置疑。
陈曦的主唱渗着冷冷而内敛的情感，演绎出一份后崩乐队的冷酷；利瓦伊思指上所游走出是典型不过的Post-Punk式Bassline；而李青的吉他弹奏时而扑朔迷离、时而却又筑起Noisenik的音墙。然而一行三人的他们并没有鼓击手，所以Snapline是那种“鼓机结他乐队”。从鼓机输出直击心房的电气化节拍驰骋，也成为了他们在音乐上的特质，甚至由于歌曲节拍的跳脱，故令到其音乐也可以纳入所谓Dance-Punk之类别。
为《Party Is Over，Pornostar》揭开序幕的是“Close Your Cold Eyes”，那宛如糅合了The Cure般由结他勾勒出的迷离氛围与Joy Division的紧凑节奏。然而紧接而来的“Holy Comments”却是由Industrial结他Riff驱动的工业摇滚曲目，陈曦的歌声却来得好比John Lydon般狂放不羁兼且神经质，是足以令人着魔的狂舞乱调。而“Catch You Low”则让急疾的鼓机节拍与连绵的后崩式Bassline丝丝入扣而来，为歌曲提供了一股低调的张力。
Snapline在这张专辑里所构成，是一段分崩离析的音乐里程。“Porno Star”叫人沉溺在其低回、缓慢、混沌而Dubby的曲式，凝聚着一份苍白的无力感，而且李青却在稍后为歌曲绽放出排山倒海而来的结他噪音独奏，相当之慑人心魄。另一方面，追女仔歌曲“Jenny”以及相当跳脱的“S#1”，是不折不扣的Dance -Punk之作；而“Let In”乘着4/4 Upbeat的节拍而来，配上迷离的结他弹奏，感觉可谓跟P.I.L. 的“Death Disco”来得同出一彻。“Single Beat”那简约的Post-Punk / New Wave曲风，又大可联想到Wire呢。要急激的Post-Punk攻略，“Yellow Cab“是他们最狂野的一刻。
外界好像暂时没有人为Snapline扣上Gothic的标签，然而李青一手扑朔迷离的吉他勾线，却不时为他们的歌曲扫上一片Gothic的幽悒色调。所以“S#2”足以跟那群Post-Punk / Gothic元老乐队的快板歌曲作相提并论；缓慢阴郁的Gothic曲目除了上述的“Porno Star”之外，那还有曲如其名地叫人听得眩晕迷幻的“Spinning”吧。

The Cure 在1989年推出了这张大热门专辑《Disintegration》。《Disintegration》同时也是 Robert Smith“悲情三部曲”的第二部(第一部是《Pornography》，第三部是《Bloodflowers》)，显得黑暗诱人，带着神秘和忧郁，整张专辑有着催眠曲一样的感觉，没有了乐队以前的黑暗绝望的作风，尽管专辑的基调比以前更为忧郁。The Cure 的音乐罕见的变得迷人了起来。好像在无垠的大海里，仰望夜空闪亮的星光，慢慢下沉，痛苦浸透，安详地窒息。铺天盖地的深蓝色键盘，孤寂而灿烂的吉他，黑暗中幻化出彩色光芒的贝司，沉稳压抑而华丽眩目的鼓，还有 Robert Smith 凄美冷艳的歌声......

While this sophomore release is unmistakably Arctic Monkeys, everything's a little more muscular and aggressive. Each song is embedded with revelatory moments, as if some sort of critical mass is achieved through skillful song craft and sharp arrangements until an explosive release of energy or emotion is inevitable. Arctic Monkeys have exceeded expectations with this record.

UK five-track EP. The follow-up to their record-breaking UK #1 debut album 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not' and includes 'View From The Afternoon' plus four exclusive recordings 'Cigarette Smoker Fiona', 'Despair In The Departure Lounge', 'No Buses' & 'Who The Fuck Are Arctic Monkeys'. Domino. 2006.

美国纽约市乐团Interpol在今次归来所发表的第四张专辑。
去年夏天，Interpol的主唱兼结他手Paul Banks才化名为Julian Plenti出版过他的首张个人专辑《Julian Plenti is....Skyscraper》。想不到只有一年之隔，大家便重返Interpol的岗位，带来继2007年《Our Love To Admire》后三年来的全新专辑。作为睽违三载的新作，乐团的第四张专辑就只是简单地唤作《Interpol》。
