如果说《别介意》（nevermind）使柯特．科本成为了摇滚明星，《子宫中》则使他厌恶地批判着关于他的新地位的一切。音乐上原始化（这得感谢制作人steve albini），在情感上加倍地原始化（他用“埋葬”来压韵“婚姻”），《子宫中》还是更多矛盾的宝藏。好笑，优美，令人心碎，它更像一张出色的唱片而不是自杀遗言。但在后来的日子里，我们听到的将只是悲痛的吼叫了。 kurt cobain以其独有的缓慢低沉的如梦般刺破黑暗的诗吟、快速的齐奏、焦躁不安的和声……使grunge风暴达到了极点，接近燃烧; 也使无数歌迷为之倾倒、疯狂。然而这无法掩饰cobain最深层的恐惧和脆弱的心。在<<in utero>>中nirvana 留下的只是他们音乐里有的那种躁动不安和最深的孤寂。---生命的终点并不是死亡，而是希望的破灭

乐队介绍：
90年代，美国的失业危机重新抬头,朋克乐在音乐界再度爆炸，西雅图的Grunge音乐风暴引起了强烈的反响与轰动,Nirvana就是在这样的背景下诞生的，乐队由Kurt Cobain和前The Melvins的成员 Krist Novoselic组建，Dave Grohl在录制第二张唱片(Nevermind)固定了的鼓手位置，Kurt Cobain负责主音和吉它， Chris负责低音吉它。
1988年11月Nirvana推出了第一张Single：Love Buzz/Big Cheese,1989年6月发行第一张专集"Bleach"。Nirvana的第一张专辑，Dale crover负责Floyd the Barder, Paper Cuts, Downer的鼓，其余由Chad Channing负责。唱片的录制费用是6.17，付钱的是Jason Everman，他在唱片里面连名字都未给提起。唱片的录制时间是30小时。 Downer只收录在CD版本里面。唱片由Sup Pop Records发行，92年4月Geffen公司Remaster发行。
1991年四月，Nirvana正式和Geffen Records 唱片公司签约。同年九月，专集"Nevermind"发行，刚推出5周销量就已达到50万张，并且在排行榜上势如破竹，节节上升， 92年1月11日成为美国销量第一的唱片，全球的销量超过一千万大关。在商业上取得了巨大的成功。单曲“Smells Like Teen Spirit”在美国BILLBROAD公告排行榜上迅速攀升。(Nevermind)使Nirvana步向成功，同时也开始了一个神话和一场心灵的悲剧。
在「Nevermind」取得了巨大的成功之后，NIRVANA把以前Singles的Side-B的和一些还没发行过的歌收集在一起，于1992年12月15日，推出专集「Incesticide」。这是一张典型的地下音乐专辑，他们表示推出这张唱片的目的是为了试试听众和电台DJ接受地下摇滚的极限。
Nirvana凭这次转入大唱片公司之后的强力出击在Billboard排行榜上取得了爆炸性的效果。他们的冲击力是如此的强劲，又是如此的出人意料之外，甚至连《纽约时报》的商业版都以他们做封面，当华尔街的分析家和工业巨头们都在时间关注那些身穿花格衬衫的破落音乐家们的时候，你不得不承认Nirvana的确将伟大的音乐带给了更多的听众。
表面上，轰鸣扭曲的吉他声与愤怒的吉他声与愤怒而具侵略性的击鼓已成为成长中的Grunge一族的必修课，实际上，《Nevermind》是一张伟大的流行乐专辑，像“Smell Like Teen Spirits”就抓住了MTV时代人们的距离感和不满情绪，但却不失精彩的噱头和出色的旋律——并且编曲上的精致巧妙绝不输于任何一张Beatles的专辑。同时Kurt Cobain的演唱与歌曲创作洋溢着天才与灵感，就长那些与他齐名的人也很少有如此泉涌才思，有不少人认为Nirvana不过是“一招鲜，吃遍天”，但只此一招便已为他们在另类摇滚史上赢得无可置疑的一席之地。
其中，主打歌曲更被认为是颓废摇滚的坐标。Nirvana深深的影响一代西方青年，他们的衣着，发型和言行都受到人们的疯狂追逐。主唱Kurt Cobain的自杀更为乐队添上神秘的色彩。闲话少说，去买来听听吧。
专辑介绍:
“Smells Like Teen Spirit”集美妙旋律和狂暴情绪为一体，这首歌中最为人注目的特点是不把一切归咎于上一代人，它直言不讳地指出了自身的缺陷。这同样也是列侬的特质，既自由而潇洒地谈论和描述自己的困惑和梦想，毫无畏惧、毫无拘束。如果 Cobain 不曾写下这首歌，他的传奇和他艺术的成就就会打点折扣，因为正是这首歌，成为了所有对现代社会的异化感同身受的青年的共同呐喊，成了全世界那些精神上似乎是无法得到满足的人们得到无限满足的欢叫，成了一切在残酷现实面前梦想破灭者的呻吟，成了依然保持最后理想者疲于奔命时的狂野呼告。“Polly ”是以一个1987年发生的真实故事为基础写成的，Cobain 十分痛恨对女性的不公和不恭，他总是为他这一代人里也有歧视和蹂躏女性的人感到惭愧。“Something In Way”是 Cobain 在 Aberdeen 桥下凄凉经历的记录，他奇特的视角既让人忍俊不禁，又让人毛骨悚然，而这就是 Kurt·Cobain 。专辑的封面照片也为专辑增色不少，也成为媒体和听众注目的焦点，关于这幅封面照片的含义，也是众说纷纭。

Nirvana的第一张专辑《Bleach》(《漂白》)是他们最为人忽视的专辑。录制《漂白》只花了600美元，《Bleach》中除了一首《About a girl》其他歌都不甚出名，远没有后来的专辑好听，但如果你想认识Nirvana，请从《Bleach》而开始。

Here's a quick TFK refresher course. Somehow, somewhere, you know this band. The Toronto, Canada natives have sold over 200,000 copies of their previous hit album Phenomenon. Along the way, they've won several major awards in their native country and the U.S., broken through on active rock radio, shared the stage with today's leading alt-rockers (Jimmy Eat World, Foo Fighters, The Donnas, Switchfoot, etc.) and even created the first great sports anthem of the 21st century with 2003's adrenaline-fueled hit "Rawkfist" which has been heard everywhere from sports stadiums to commercials! We are here to reassure you that it's OK to simply ROCK again. As in, straight-forward, aggressive, melodic rock'n'roll. And Thousand Foot Krutch is the band that's going to lead the way. "This is a rawk record," explains TFK frontman Trevor McNevan, who was up until the very last moment spending 15-plus hours a day in the studio with acclaimed producer Arnold Lanni (Our Lady Peace, Simple Plan, Finger Eleven) finishing the band's latest and greatest album, "The Art of Breaking."

Thousand Foot Krutch returns with their most prolific and inspiring release to date, The Flame In All Of Us. This record is a perfect blend of the bands patented Rock sounds, coupled with beautiful ballads that explore what truly burns inside of us. Coming off of the heels of two incredibly solid records, The Flame In All Of Us is a huge step forward and will definitely grab the ears of current fans and pull in new ones along the way.

Thousand Foot Krutch是来自加拿大多伦多的一支著名福音Alternative系摇滚乐队，成立于1997年。该乐队的主唱Trevor McNevan和鼓手Steve Augustine身兼两职，组成了著名的朋克乐队FM Static。凭借2003年的专辑一举成名，新专辑发行备受关注，从预售情况来看已经远远超过2007年的黄金专辑当时预售量。继承了Thousand Foot Krutch一贯的Alternative曲风，风格多变诡异，有柔情的，也有硬朗的。

Native is the third studio album by American alternative rock band OneRepublic.

OneRepublic是美国的一个流行摇滚乐队，成立于科罗拉多州。自2006年夏天以来，他们活跃与网络，并成为MYSPACE最受欢迎的艺人之一。作曲／制作人Ryan Tedder 和他的高中朋友Zach Filkins 在科罗拉多州斯布林市创建了乐队。然后乐队搬迁到洛杉矶。在Columbia Records短暂的工作之后，他们和Interscope Records/Mosley Music Group 签约了，并且完成了和乐队同名的首张专辑。乐队的核心Ryan Tedder同样也是创作pop, rock,rnb的作曲／制作人。他们的歌曲"Apologize"的混音版本被收入Timbaland2007年发行的专辑 TimbalandPresents: Shock Value中。这首歌曲的原始版本将会作为即将到来的专辑的单曲发行。８月末，在洛杉矶本地电台KIIS-FM的节目中，这首歌受到了大量的点播。 2007年8月2日乐队在FOX电视台的 "So You Think You Can Dance"节目中现场表演了 "Apologize"。
这虽然只是他们的第一张专辑，但他们却早已备受关注，My Space的点击率过了千万。专辑风格在独立、流行和摇滚之间，歌曲的旋律都不错，让人很容易就能接受，对于喜欢流行还是摇滚的歌迷来说都是不错的选择。值得一提的是专辑中大部分歌曲都是由Ryan Tedder来完成，也是一个不简单的人物。

新专辑的风格，OneRepublic表示：“新专辑有可能会收录9首或10首新作。风格比起上一张专辑来说会更加强烈与积极，也会有一些比较激烈一点的歌曲。但不用担心，当中也会有旋律优美的中速抒情歌。但我们一定不会重复上一张专辑做过的事情。”

Bombay Bicycle Club去年的acoustic专辑Flaws让他们摆脱了一直不红不紫的尴尬境地，才过一年，BBC就乘胜宣布发行他们的第三张专辑。首单似乎已经能验证这张专辑的品质，如果说Flaws是BBC尝试转变的一个试验品，那么在这张A Different Kind Of Fix中，他们显得更加成熟和自信了。

Takk... is the fourth studio album by the Icelandic post-rock band Sigur Rós, first released in the United States by Geffen Records on 12 September 2005. The album debuted at number 27 on the US Billboard 200, selling 30,000 copies in its first week.

We Started Nothing is the debut album from The Ting Tings. Tipped in the top three of the BBC's Sound of 2008 poll at the beginning of the year, seemingly they have much to prove. However, The Ting Tings aren't about proving themselves; they are simply here to enjoy it. Making great British pop music - their way - is what they're about.

Born of a desire to employ the DIY ethic from day one - Katie White and Jules De Martino escaped the industry trappings they once experienced in a previous band and went back to basics as a duo. They stripped back everything they thought they both knew about making music and the industry that revolved around every note.

We Started Nothing is a debut album brimming with intuitive pop noise. It's pure garage-pop and once heard will in-bed itself into your subconscious for many days, weeks, months to come. Snappy choruses trade off against angular gutar work, whip smart drumming and a succession of loops that they create live with the use of delay pedals.

这张Rumours最初发行于1977年2月的专辑毫无疑问已成为Fleetwood Mac音乐生涯的鼎盛时期，不仅采集了Fleetwood Mac几乎全部的精华，还轻易为他们带来了全球三千万的销售霸业。与软摇滚结合，乐队创造出一种成熟而富有感情的音乐使 1977 年的《Rumours》成为当时销量最好的专辑。
大多数乐队都承受着他们的职业生涯中的一连串变革时，却很少有乐队能象 Fleetwood Mac 一样经历了如此激烈的变化。在 60 年代末，这乐队最初的构思是作为一支 Hard - Edged British Blues Combo，在接着的十年的过程中，它就逐渐的转变成为一支优秀的流行摇滚乐队了。在它的整个转变过程中，乐队唯一一个不变的成员是鼓手 Mick Fleetwood 和贝斯手 John McVie。然而有讽刺意味的是，他们对这支乐队的音乐发展方向的影响却是最小的。最初，吉它手 Peter Green 和 Jeremy Spencer 提供给乐队具有迷幻性的忧郁的嗓音，但当两个吉它手都有了精神病后，这支乐队开始转向流行摇滚。在 70 年代中期，乐队重新定居在加州，在那里，他加入了 Lindsey Buckingham 和 Stevie Nicks 的轻摇滚组合的阵容。着迷于 The Beach Boys 和 The Beatles 的 Buckingham 帮助这支乐队成为了 70 年代末最流行的组合之一。收起

2010 release from the Irish outfit, the follow up to their million selling self-titled debut. An addictive blend of Hip Hop rhythms, flowing melodies, sparkling hooks and poignant, story-spinning lyrics, with Danny's mellifluous soulful vocals riding high over huge, anthemic choruses, Science & Faith is far from a difficult second album. When writing, the London based trio found that weighty, emotion-packed mini-epics came thick and fast. Highlights include first single 'For The First Time' and 'Nothing', its subject matter a drunken, broken hearted phone call to a lost love Then there's 'If You Ever Come Back' about always leaving the door open for the possible return of a loved one and the title track, 'Science & Faith', which takes on the primacy of love in the universal equation.
