Suede is the debut album by English alternative rock band Suede, released in March 1993 on Nude Records. At the time the fastest-selling debut album in British history, Suede debuted at the top of the UK Album Chart, won the 1993 Mercury Music Prize, and is often credited with starting the Britpop movement. The sound of the album has been compared to The Smiths and the early David Bowie era.

Placebo are an English rock band, formed in London in 1994 by vocalist–guitarist Brian Molko and bassist–guitarist Stefan Olsdal. Drummer Robert Schultzberg joined in late 1994, but left in 1996 shortly after the release of the band's eponymous debut album due to conflicts with Molko, and was replaced the same year by Steve Hewitt.

Hozier is the eponymous debut studio album from Irish singer-songwriter Hozier. The album was announced on June 24 and released on Island Records and Rubyworks Records.

The album was available to pre-order in Europe upon its announcement with North American and Australian pre-order dates from July 2014.

专辑的名字来自一位墨西哥艺术家Frida Kahlo给自己的一幅画的命名。
在这张专辑制作的早期，三名乐队成员各自把对新专辑的想法都写在一张白板上，每一个人的想法都很激进前卫，最后，Chris Martin收回了他的看法。他希望以后有机会再游说他们。"我听到波诺曾经说过一句话，'乐队不应该为钱而分裂，他们应该只为了歌曲名单而分裂，'”他说，在这一点上，没有什么比这更有针对性了。”
乐队聘请了传奇制片人Brian Eno做他们第4张专辑的制作人。并且，他们有针对性地试图排除一切外来影响。吉他手Johnny Buckland说： "我们感觉自己的头三张专辑是一个三部曲，我们已经完成了。因此，我们想要做一些不同的。" 乐队让记者听了一下他们正在制作的歌曲小样，大多数听起来令人耳目一新， 完全不同于他们以往的热门歌曲“Clocks”和“Speed Of Sound”。
好几首歌相当粗糙靠近边缘，伴随着扭曲的吉他和更加突出的敲击。歌词是暗色调的，反复出现了死亡和孤独的主题。其中有几首歌，Martin延长他的声带调色板，其表现大大超出了人们对他以往运用假声的理解，其音色低沉，性感，给人的感觉更个人，更真实。"不管这样好还是不好，我们已经开始在音乐里融入更多的色彩。”Martin说。 "取悦每一个人是不可能做到的，我们经历了这么长时间才体会到这一点。这样说让人觉得自由——可能没有一个人喜欢我们做的这些东西，但我们此时此刻就是想这样做，而且要把它做完为止。”
在新专辑里，乐队探索了各种声波的方向，其中一些来自制作人呢Brain Eno的启发和鼓励。"他不主观臆断，做出来的东西令人耳目一新。”Matin说。Buckland补充说， "他不仅仅是带来声音或其他东西，他带来了对一切事情的想法，甚至具体到，怎样构筑我们渡过的这一天。他的建议让我们停下来，仔细考虑很多问题。”

虽然他们的首张专辑销量与Franz Ferdinand、Keane有一定差距，但是媒体却一点都没有看低他们，这也证明了他们的音乐是有一定水平的。如果说Keane比较贴近流行摇滚，那Kasabian就是音乐顽童了，四个来自莱切斯特的小伙子，对Oasis的极度喜爱在各种采访中都能看的出来。他们的音乐是多样的，也许是因为少年时受到brit-pop、电音甚至hip-hop等各种风格的影响。领跑单曲《CLUB FOOT》里面我们可以见识到Electro-Rock,而在 I.D.里面我们又可以闻到迷幻的味道，到了cut off又转成了hip-hop了，这就是Kasabian，虽然他们并没有带来一场革命，但他们的自信在近年的英伦里是很少见的，这也为英伦摇滚注入了一剂强心剂。音乐权威Q杂志对他们的评语也证明了对这四个小伙子前景的看好。

Augustana is a four-piece group from L.A. that combines the introspective grittiness of American guitar rock (think the Wallflowers and Counting Crows) with the wide-angle theatrics of U.K. guitar/piano rock (think Radiohead before they went nuts or a less epic Coldplay). That may sound interesting, but their debut major label album, All the Stars and Boulevards, is a fairly hollow exercise that feels like it was concocted in a record label boardroom. That's not to say that it was or that all plans hatched in that manner are inherently wrong. It just points to the elements (originality, excitement, soul) that are missing from Augustana. From the overly processed guitars to singer Dan Layus' simultaneously bland and over-emoted vocals to the slickness of the melodies and the clichéd authenticity of the perfectly crafted arrangements, there isn't much to sink your teeth into here. Even for fans of the bands Augustana is so obviously influenced by, they will feel like they are listening to a third- or fourth-generation Xerox copy. All that said, the album is still listenable in a strange kind of way since the lack of any distinguishing features allows the music to be perfect background music. Sort of like elevator AOR. Sort of like a wasted 40 minutes.

EELS 是一支美国非主流乐队，Mark&nbspEverett 是乐队的核心和主唱。他们坚持着独立的音乐立场，不管多大的公司找他写歌或者代言推销产品，都统统不甩。但出于对一些人的艺术理想的认同，他们也创作电影音乐，比如“美国美人”、“怪兽史莱克”等。他们还获得过几个大奖，比如 99年mtv最佳录影带大奖。但是他认为奖项对他并没有什么意义，如果说用处，就是奖品作了鼓架的支撑物。
Mark& nbspEverett的父亲Hugh&nbspEverett是世界著名的科学家，提出了平行空间的多世界理论（many& nbspworlds&nbsptheory），但Mark&nbspEverett可能没有遗传到这些，他的成绩很糟糕。 Everett的少年时期充满了不辛，父亲患心脏病，母亲患癌症，姐姐自杀，使得他经常处于压抑消沉的心境。
就这样Mark& nbspEverett和大多数的青年一样，痛苦而恣肆的成长，把自己放纵在狂欢与毒品之中。在1996年的专辑《Beautiful& nbspFreak》和1998年的专辑《Electro-Shock&nbspBlues》里，他的这种心境袒露无疑。他深陷苦恼，把这苦恼的矛头对准世界也对着自己，乐曲显得寒冷而诡异。
所有的青年都会长大，就象所有的春天最后都会落到地上一样。在他们2000年的第三张专辑《Daisies&nbspof&nbspthe&nbspGalaxy》里乐风已经有了一些变化，虽然以前的蚀骨阴冷还在，但他们拾起了黑色幽默这个武 器（其实从封套上就可以感觉到），他们用有趣来消解颓废和阴冷，他们的音乐中开始出现欢快的旋律，Mark& nbspEverett的心境已经开始变化。他们成功了，EELS保留了自己的思考着怀疑着的脑袋，但同时又有趣地活着，做着有趣的音乐。
