Everything Else Has Gone Wrong 豆瓣
7.9 (9 个评分) Bombay Bicycle Club 类型: 摇滚
发布日期 2020年1月17日 出版发行: Mmm... Records
Everything Else Has Gone Wrong' is the eagerly anticipated follow-up to the British band’s acclaimed number 1-charting, Mercury Music Prize-nominated fourth album, ‘So Long, See You Tomorrow’ released in 2014.
The new album was largely recorded out in the US alongside Grammy Award winning producer John Congleton (St. Vincent/Sharon Van Etten/War on Drugs). It features the band’s euphoric new single, “Eat, Sleep, Wake (Nothing But You)”. The video was directed by Louis Bhose, the band’s old touring keyboardist who has quickly become the go-to director for countless artists in recent years (Michael Kiwanuka & Tom Misch, Lewis Capaldi, The Big Moon, Loyle Carner). It was shot out in Ukraine.
Speaking of the record’s title, vocalist/guitarist Jack Steadman explains: “This is an album for anyone who’s ever turned to music in a time of need. It’s about the solace one can get from listening to music or playing music. For me personally it\s about the frustration of not being able to express myself to others, of leaving conversations feeling dissatisfied and misunderstood. Music’s the way I’m able to truly express myself”.
Bombay Bicycle Club have continued to grow, develop and evolve since the release of their debut album, “I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose”, back in 2009 when they signalled their arrival as young teenagers. Rarely in recent years has there been a British guitar band who have the craft and ability to avoid categorisation whilst uniting hundreds of thousands of fans across the globe. With an innate ear for melody and invention, the four-piece are a very welcome return to the fold just as British guitar music makes a timely renaissance.
Undercurrent 豆瓣
9.5 (41 个评分) Bill Evans / Jim Hall 类型: 爵士
发布日期 2002年7月16日 出版发行: Blue Note Records
Duet albums were rare in 1962 and encounters of this quality are still rare. Bill Evans and Jim Hall, two modern jazz giants, were in peak creative form at the time, Evans leading his own trio and Hall working with Sonny Rollins's quartet at the time.

These two masters challenge and complement each other brilliantly on a series of standards and jazz originals. Newly remixed and remastered in 24 bit, this new edition of Undercurrent, which contains two more tunes (tracks 7 & 8) and two alternate takes (tracks 9 & 10) added to the original United Artists album, sound exceptional.

国内インストゥルメンタルロックの代名詞と呼ばれるまでになった、ポストロック・スタンダード、toe待望のファーストアルバム。エモーショナルでメロウなツインギター、シンプルなバンドサウンドを支えるベース、そして特筆すべき、今字ネイション豊かで唄うドラミングはtoeサウンドの核として今作も健在です。数多くのフォロワーを生み出し、比較されるアーティストとは異なるベクトルとオリジナリティーを確立した、エモーショナルフィール溢れるインストゥルメンタルロック。

Tomb For Two 豆瓣
8.3 (23 个评分) Lebanon Hanover 类型: 摇滚
发布日期 2013年9月20日 出版发行: Fabrika Records
Almost one year ago since their last release on Fabrika, Lebanon Hanover return with their third full length, in an edition of 1000 hand-numbered LP format, the first 300 copies in limited grey vinyl and 700 copies in black vinyl. The first impression emerging from the cover reveals a continuity between the second and the third LP, but ''tomb for two'' is not just the next set of songs from these two modern romantics. Larissa and William are completely devoted to their music, they don't have a home, they don't need one, they tour around the world, getting payed off for their hard work by finding out that there still are some sensitives in a world of hipocricy. This is the music of a rebellion against the digital world of today. The 10 track album includes 8 new and unreleased compositions and a download code.
Knock Knock 豆瓣
7.5 (15 个评分) DJ Koze 类型: 电子
发布日期 2018年5月4日 出版发行: Pampa Records (Rough Trade)
Like all DJ Koze records, Knock Knock exists outside of trend and influence. In fact, it's a step further beyond: absolutely every single thing here, from grooves to voices to handclaps, is otherworldly and unique. Which is not to say it is utterly alien abstraction, mind. There is still disco, there is still soul, there is still techno, there is still hip hop, there is still psychedelia – there are even wafts of easy listening, lost crackly thriftstore record memories and... sort of... indie rock – but though it may sound familiar, it never does what your brain thinks it's going to do. Likewise with the voices. More than ever before on Koze's records, there are fascinating, individualist – and well-known – voices through out Knock Knock but again, each of them is rendered strange, drawn into a different reality Bon Iver's ghostly hymnals on Bonfire are very recognisably Bon Iver, but the way they twist and merge with synthetic sounds until choir and computer are writhing around one another in bliss are something else. The ever-unique Róisín Murphy, on two stunning tracks, becomes a cyborg funk diva. Speech from Arrested Development delivers luscious and lazy R&B-funk on Colors of Autumn, but Koze's warping bass, dubwise echo and alien nature sounds take it to an alternate dimension tropical landscape. Kurt Wagner of Lambchop is a vocoder bohemian, Sophia Kennedy is a sci-fi Weimar cabaret star, José Gonzalez a holographic projection from an old film of South Sea Islands... on it goes, nothing is real, everyone is an inhabitant of Koze-world. And that's what is crucial here. Koze is a world-maker. You don't get to chose how you hear his music – you enter his world or you don't, that's it. And that's why individual influences, whether it's the trippy German techno that's always rippled through is albums or the beat-scene abstract hip hop that he incorporated into his DJ-Kicks mix in 2015, are all but irrelevant. Though he'd never compare himself to anyone else, Koze only makes sense in the way that other world-builders do, from Bowie to Sun Ra, Outkast to Kate Bush. And Knock Knock is far and away his greatest statement of that. It's an album that came together slowly and steadily, his working processes arcane and mysterious in their steady accumulation of sound and inspiration. It's so complete and bursting with detail and consistency from every micro-second that you'd swear it was meticulously planned – but there was no masterplan, do desire to create a definitive artefact: the record itself decided when it was ready. And now it is ready, the most perfectly constructed portal into that other world, you had better be ready too!

7.7 (103 个评分) The xx 类型: 电子
发布日期 2017年1月13日 出版发行: Young Turks
★水星音乐奖得主暌违五年第三张专辑
★荒芜中执拗燃烧的浪漫
★都会喧嚣间最亲密的孤寂
来自伦敦的青年乐队The xx,2009年首张专辑《xx》以初生之犊的姿态,拿下欧洲指标性水星音乐奖,随后几年间,他们纵横各大音乐祭与颁奖典礼,第二张专辑《Coexist》挤下The Script、Bob Dylan、Pet Shop Boys空降英国流行专辑榜冠军,此等天之骄子般的惊人声势,以及身处譁众取宠的当代音乐潮流中,The xx徘徊午夜的极间低迴旋律铺陈起的黑灰色阶,似乎显得格格不入,然而吸纳著Siouxsie and the Banshees、The Cure、New Order、Cocteau Twins以至Aaliyah音乐养分而来的浪漫声响,却敲醒了层层冰雪底层的炙热,写尽了这时代人们藏得最深的孤寂。
2014年乐队灵魂人物Jamie xx首张创作专辑《In Colour》,在The xx失去时空标记的未来场域,投入大量多元声响取洋的缤纷色泽,让人预见了The xx的可能性,亦塑造出暌违五年新专辑《I See You》首支单曲〈On Hold〉的蜕变,与Hall & Oates 1981年冠军曲〈I Can’t Go For That〉交会之际一脚踩进舞池,让好似被时间消磨了的遗憾,不再那麽难以承受,冬阳洒落的和煦蔓延至〈I Dare You〉与〈Say Something Loving〉,依旧浪漫得执拗。
开场曲〈Dangerous〉强悍bassline与管乐驱策下,扬起了The xx至今最果抉、激昂的一回;〈Lips〉取洋自葛莱美提名挪威人声乐队Trio Mediæval的脱俗吟唱乘著Tribal Beat悠缓跃动的宜人风景,以及〈Performance〉凄薄弦乐于一片荒芜中拉扯出的张力,格外令人惊豔;即便〈A Violent Noise〉和〈Brave For You〉回到那个被喧嚣遗忘的街角,遇到我们熟悉的The xx,冰冷得暴戾的梦,也相对辽阔轻盈,美得令人屏息。
末曲〈Test Me〉绝望的最后恳求,在一片极间冰凝的苍白电气中持续坠落,一段Alessi Brothers〈Do You Feel It?〉的琴音乍现,对映著取洋了同一首歌的〈Say Something Loving〉,麻木了心,模糊了时空,即使在阳光洒落的地方,The xx依旧以近乎任性的执著,耽溺于怀疑与悔恨的结,最亲密的疏离,最炙热的冷冽,让人倚著冰牆试图取暖,距离心一步的位置,目光犹疑试探,却怎麽也踩不进去的怅然。
