Dream Tide 曳梦潮汐 豆瓣
7.2 (21 个评分) 完美倒立 类型: 流行
发布日期 2020年4月10日 出版发行: 草台回声
夜晚天空厚厚的水汽下沉
城市吐纳着潮湿的生动
云雾间那霓虹之路
层叠浮现在高楼
人们烂漫无尽的梦
在夜风中缓缓摇曳
细落成无数浪花
如潮汐般由远而近
铺满街道与房间
我们都曾坠入混沌
在无解的自问中循环往复
被虚化 被瓦解
也在颓败的气氛中找到慰藉
而在那些有风的夜晚
想要的答案都退向远处
成为轮廓模糊的光晕

Chemically Happy (is the New Sad) 豆瓣

About the Unbending Trees
Hailing from Budapest in Hungary, The Unbending Trees are a trio, and specialize in sparse, brutally honest, chamber ballads and slo-core pop.
Kristof Hajos (vocals, words) was a friar in a monastery at the age of 18, but was thrown out.
Havasi (piano) is a revered Hungarian classical pianist and graduated at the Hungarian Music Academy.
Peter Hary (bass, programming) lives in the countryside in Kecskemet and loves New Wave, New Romantics and Gary Numan.
4th December 2008 Andor Gabor, drummer and percussionist joined the band.
Between them they have conjured up a raw and poetic collection of songs that make up their debut album, 'Chemically Happy (Is The New Sad)', and dare we say it in this age of overstatement, have discovered a genuinely unique sound.
Discovered on MySpace by Ben Watt and signed to Strange Feeling (the alt- pop sister imprint to his acclaimed electronic label, Buzzin' Fly) The Unbending Trees made their arresting debut last autumn with London shows at the Betsey Trotwood and a four-track EP ('The First Day EP') that saw acclaim coming from Jim Gellatly at XFM Scotland, Radio 1's Rob Da Bank, The Observer's Molloy Woodcraft and underground tip-sheets like The Fly and Artrocker.
In the meantime, their UK acceptance has seen extraordinary things happen in their home country of Hungary with tracks like 'You Are A Lover' and 'Alfred's Lovesong' not only getting extensive radio play but also reaching the Top 10 on MTV Hungary with relentless rotation of their low-budget clips next to the pop and r'n'b hits of the day.
There is a gothic luminosity to the sound allied to a European intensity that recalls perhaps Scott Walker and Leonard Cohen, and Tracey Thorn was so taken with the songs and the live performances that she accepted the invitation to guest on one of the album’s finest moments, 'Overture'. You will love or hate this record. It demands an opinion. It is raw and unflinching, unique and honest. Open your heart to The Unbending Trees.
Lady & Bird 豆瓣
8.7 (249 个评分) Lady & Bird 类型: 民谣
发布日期 2003年1月1日 出版发行: EMI
「Hello…你能听见我们吗?我们迷失了。」
Lady&Bird--->Keren Ann和Bradi Johannsson,一个是拥有多国血统的混血女创作人,一个是冰岛Trip-hop乐队Bang Gang的主唱。化身为Lady&Bird共同合作的一张同名专辑,优秀的女声出色的编曲。吉他加上一些柔软的和声,入耳是滑腻的,然而又不是一种甜腻,借用一句形容mum音乐的话就是:"于冰冷之处呵出温暖之花"女生合唱的吟或是拟声层次丰富而韵律感十足层层叠叠不犹让人想起莲花之类的东西一层层铺展开来,花瓣柔和呈现的同时清香出来了,浸入人心.很迷恋Lady Bird的和声,简洁明了,力度适宜,音乐不俗,转折或是高潮往往给人京戏不在该到的时候到来,我们终是喜欢在刺激或是未知中得到欢乐的. Lady Bird,是一支有阳光破碎声音的美丽乐队. Lady Bird. 或是Lady and Bird....

两个童音,如同鸟笼中稚鸟的对话,冷落,寂寞,伴随,冰凉这些词语没有出现
以上长段的歌词对白却在清脆滴水般透净的音乐中钝重地说明了一切.
Lady只有Bird,Bird只有Lady.
阳光还是破碎的,来时的路已无法回去,破碎的割伤无法修
因为我们的经脉血管早已种下忧伤和苦痛.
即使有阳光,即使有"女士鸟"优雅地歌唱.
温温暖暖,悠悠闲闲,懒懒洋洋.
唱一束破碎婉转的午后阳光;转一轮无法回旋的岁月时长.
