William Basinski’s reputation as the foremost producer of profound meditations on death and decay has long been established, but on his new album, Lamentations, he transforms operatic tragedy into abyssal beauty. More than any other work since The Disintegration Loops, there is an ominous grief throughout the album, and that sense of loss lingers like an emotional vapor.Captured and constructed from tape loops and studies from Basinski’s archives – dating back to 1979 – Lamentations is over forty years of mournful sighs meticulously crafted into songs. They are shaped by the inevitable passage of time and the indisputable collapsing of space – and their collective resonance is infinite and eternal.

1982年初版LP。非洲民歌专辑，包括很多很难学的唱法，实在让人惊叹。
日本の合唱界でまことにユニークな存在の芸能山城組が,およそ非西欧的な構造をもつアフリカ各地の合唱的歌唱に挑んだ力作。モロッコからボツワナに至るアフリカの歌をこなしてしまうその気迫のほどにおそれいるが,やはり日本人の合唱である意義が大きい。

le serpent blanc and le serpent rouge are the antithesis of one another - as simple as the serpent's split tongue or left and right, positive and negative, good and evil - whereas the former delves deeper into the cause and effect of saccidic movement, the latter is of an introspective nature.

辑介绍：
香港MCB杂志评出的100张欧美最具革命性专辑之一，评语为：“美国后摇滚体系的先锋乐团，一张影响着整个后摇运动发展的导航唱片。”
存在于1987-1991年间的美国post-rock乐队，这是他们的第二张，也是最后一张完整的录音室专辑，专辑发行不久乐队即告解散。他们在音乐中大量使用吉他噪音和怪异的和弦来营造旋律和氛围，人声退居到很不显眼的位置。这张专辑被许多人认为是第一张后摇滚专辑，影响十分深远。专辑发行的时候，封套上留了个地址，希望有兴趣参与的女音乐人和他们联系。PJ Harvey曾经给这个地址去过信，但那时乐队已经不存在了。
关于Slint：
（引自jickbin朋友在
的介绍）
肯塔基州路易维尔的 Slint 成军于 1987 年，在出版两张叫好不叫座的专辑《Tweez》(1989) 和《Spiderland》(1991) 后便宣告解散﹝1994 年出版的迷你辑《Slint》录制于 1990 年左右﹞，但影响力却随着团员四散新组的乐团，和无数受 Slint 启蒙而纷纷仿效的后进，而与日俱增。被众多媒体包括 Alternative Press、 Pitchfork 等选为90 年代百大专辑，NME、Melody Maker 等选为乐史百大专辑，由 Steve Albini 制作的 《Spiderland》是乐史第一张可以称作后摇滚的唱片。这个堂皇的冠冕虽然成就了后来 Slint 无与伦比的传奇名声，但实际上听过 Slint 音乐的人，其实少得可怜，不少人可能只听过 1995 年发的《Kids》原声带里收录的结束曲〈Good Morning Captain〉。但无庸置疑的，从 Polvo、June of 44、Dirty Three 到 Mogwai、Godspeed You Black Emporer!、Sigur Ros，Slint 的影响至今持续发酵。

1998年，Tortoise发行了第三张专辑《TNT》。这时的“乌龟”已越发老道了。在没有“乌龟”的两年日子里，John McEntire正忙着给各路前卫同志们制作唱片，也成了大腕。不过，闲暇之时他对爵士乐兴趣日增。所以，在《TNT》专辑里爵士的成分有所增加。这次，Tortoise的旋律不再那么幽暗与自闭了，它充满了光明，好听又上耳。别误会，Tortoise可没有庸俗化，那种高度知识分子化的旋律是与成年人美好的回忆相联系的，沉浸在《TNT》中，能感受到优雅老龟在与孩童嬉戏。这是Tortoise在艺术上一次漂亮的转型。
