The Maccabees有着英国indie音乐最大的优点和最大的缺点，深刻而又易忘，The Maccabees的音乐不能说是照搬其他团体的风格，因为都是同样的indie，强烈的英国记号深深地烙在他们的音乐中。
The Maccabees来自英国的Brighton，有着宗教意味的名字却是这支无神论者团体的名字，他们在2005年的时候就独立发行了第一首单曲X-Ray，并在2006年的时候得到了许多媒体的正面表扬，NME更是把他们誉为The best new band in Britain，去年的时候他们发表了第二首单曲Latchmere和第一首英国单曲榜上榜单曲 First Love，一首让更多人知道The Maccabees的象征性作品，他们的新单曲About Your Dress取得了33名的成绩。

/爱是昂贵的
声音玩具到2015已经成立16年了，距离上一张《最美妙的旅行》已有12年了，如果这是一个人的话，一轮的回转多多少少也投上了宿命的影子。
回首昨日，一如少年的旅程，但终有一天也会知道选择也意味着放弃，那甜蜜的每一次，列着长长的队伍黑夜般无边无际！将这些场景转化成文字并尝试着赋予它诗意，再谱以旋律，也许人们这样就愿意相信那一切似乎不会消失的和爱流逝的速度一样快，更不会在时间中泥足深陷！
沉默，沉默又沉默，直到音乐再次响起，那些真实中无法释怀的种种再一次以美好的一面浮现在动人的一曲上，这也许就是我们能想到和过去告别最优雅的方式。

English indie rock band The Vaccines, formed by Justin Young, Freddie Cowan, Árni Árnason and Pete Robertson, is finally ready to bring back their music to our lives.
The band is set to release their awaited new single called “Handsome” as first cut of their upcoming third studio album, scheduled to be released on digital retailers sometime this year via Columbia Records.
The single will be released on iTunes (UK) on March 6, 2015 including a special Reimagined remix made by Dave Fridmann as B-Side.

Double LP Reissue set featuring the original album along with six b-side tracks and new artwork.

Listen is the fourth studio album by British rock band The Kooks. It is scheduled to be released on 1 September 2014 through Virgin EMI Records. It is the band's first album to feature new drummer Alexis Nunez who joined in 2012, replacing Paul Garred.

UK only 7-inch pressing features the album version of the title track and 'I'll Try Anything Once' (Demo of 'You Only Live Once). Rough Trade. 2006.

Taken from the 2001 album, Is This It. The title track is backed with two non-LP demos, 'Alone Together' & 'Is This It'.

The album, produced by the band's guitarist Sergio Pizzorno and named after its total running time, was released in Germany on 6 June 2014 and in the UK on 9 June 2014. It is promoted by the lead single "Eez-eh". The album entered at number one on the UK Albums Chart in its first week of release. It's the band's fourth consecutive UK number one album. The second single, "bumblebeee", was released on 3 August 2014. The video, directed by Alex Courtes, was released in late July.

The Effects of 333 is an album by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. It is their fifth studio album and was released on November 1, 2008.

The album is completely instrumental and is available as a digital download through their official music store as from 3:33 AM Pacific Time on November 1st, 2008.

《First Impressions of Earth》是The Strokes乐队加入RCA之后的第二张专辑，也是乐队的第三张正式专辑。专辑在美国发行第一周的销量为8万8千张,在本周Billboard 200专辑榜中的排名却与《Room on Fire》持平，名列本周第四位。在本周Billboard 200专辑榜中的排名却与《Room on Fire》持平，名列本周第四位。
在专辑的制作方面，The Strokes仍和包办了前两张专辑的老搭档Gordon Raphael继续合作，顺理成章的就是，The Strokes在音乐上不仅再次延续了之前的复古曲风，而且更是将乐队擅长做的旋律华的精彩的Riff发挥得淋漓尽致。无论是开篇曲目《You Only Live Once》，还是打榜单曲《Juicebox》，或是《Razor Blade》，The Strokes标志性的Riff都贯穿始终，而创作核心Julian Casablancas也再次包办了其中大多数的歌曲。

回顾Black Rebel Motorcycle Club（以下简称BRMC）过往的所有录音室专辑，你会发现一个尴尬而又奇怪的现象：他们的专辑得到的评价始终褒贬不一，有人给出高分，就有人贬得一文不值。如今，面对他们的新作《Specter At The Feast》，这种情况依然存在。
但实际上，你能从这张作品中听出他们过往各个时期的特点——节奏平缓的开篇曲《Fire Walker》遥望了首张专辑《B.R.M.C.》；曲风激进的《Teenage Disease》和《Rival》是对《Take Them On, On Your Own》的回溯；《Howl》中的美式根源元素在此次的《Some Kind Of Ghost》、《Lullaby》等民谣作品中得以展现；《Hate The Taste》仅凭节奏就可以将人带回《Baby 81》时期；《Sell It》则是对上张专辑《Beat The Devil’s Tattoo》实验曲风的再扩大。
细心聆听你会发现，新专辑在整体节奏上更趋于平缓，慢歌所占的比重比前作更大，Robert Levon Been担任主唱的曲目也更多，这一切均源于Robert的父亲、同时也是乐队调音师Michael Been在2010年的离世。为了表达对其的敬意，乐队此次特意在专辑中翻唱了Michael原先乐队The Call的代表作《Let The Day Begin》，其意义不言自明。
此外，BRMC这次依然延续了每张专辑必有一首长篇曲目的传统，长达8分多钟的《Lose Yourself》以舒缓的节奏、伤感的气息为专辑收尾，Robert在其中唱道：“Close your eyes, and skip what you dream……Send your touch, but you can’t feel a thing.”这是献给其父的一曲挽歌，也是专辑中最让人动容的时刻。

After a five year hiatus the Glaswegian indie rockers are back with a third album We Need Medicine, with the first single Seven Nights Seven Days out in October. Expect plenty more indie anthems with more of a blusey rock edge.
