**專輯內附原文歌詞
隨著科技日新月異，電子合成樂也大舉入侵各樣曲風，並深深影響新世代的創作軌跡，來自加洲的Foster The People，不僅在音樂創作上將時髦的氛圍和電氣旋律串接上線，更沾染著一股迷幻風味，保留獨立製作的精神，揮灑出當今饒富創意的搖擺節奏。
2009年正式成軍的Foster The People，由身兼演唱、鍵盤、鋼琴、合成器、吉他、程式設計、打擊樂等多項技能於一身的Mark Foster領軍，加上打擊樂器主力Mark Pontius、貝斯手Cubbie Fink和兩位志同道合好友，運用公開演出的機會，在他們的創作中增添更多元、更豐富的新復古樂風，請來熟稔吉他、鍵盤、合成器、合音的Sean Cimino及鍵盤、鋼琴、合音的Isom Innis擔綱Live秀客席樂手。靠著網路科技等無國界的特性，上傳自創歌曲獲無數網友好評不斷，也讓Columbia Records聽到Foster The People的新鮮才華。
繼2010年首張同名EP《Foster The People》一戰成名，2011年終於祭出完整錄音大碟《Torches》，力邀英國跨界製作新銳Paul Epworth (Adele、Cee-Lo Green)、The Bird And The Bee雙人組之Gregory Kurstin (Ke$ha、Britney Spears)等金牌製作群和Mark Foster協力操盤，堅強的製作組合，精彩可期，並率先拿下澳洲專輯排行Top9。首波主打〈Pumped Up Kicks〉，獲BBC Radio 1「當週最佳單曲」殊榮，懷舊熱情的低沉貝斯，混搭空心吉他和電子合成樂，歌詞則輝應團名，描寫缺少家庭關愛、孤立且具暴力傾向的年輕世代，是首涵意深厚的佳作，一舉登上告示牌搖滾榜Top7、另類榜Top2；輕巧有趣的〈Call It What You Want〉帶來活潑節拍，讓人一聽就上癮；以民謠混搭電子合成的〈Don’t Stop (Color On The Walls)〉則有熱鬧歡氣氛炒熱氣氛；慵懶嗓音帶來〈I Would Do Anything For You〉琅琅上口的副歌旋律，讓人留下深刻印象；迷離弛放的數首創作，如〈Houdini〉、〈Life On The Nickel〉、〈Miss You〉等，體驗他們以鮮亮Electro/Synthpop外衣，且充滿豐沛創作實力的Foster The People。
