#58/59 The Stills/The Broken Family Band

Posted by chainly77 in New Albums 2006 on April 21, 2006

The Stills – Without Feathers
US: 9th May – Vice
UK: 15th May – Atlantic

加拿大乐队THE STILLS的第二张专集, 与上一张相比, 变的旋律化和轻快了许多.

 

The Broken Family Band – Balls
UK: 20th Feb – Track & Field

这已经是来自剑桥的BROKEN FAMILY BAND的第三张专集了, 他们更像是一只美国乡村乐队.
这些来自"破碎家庭"的人唱着并不破碎的故事.

#56/57 Sonic Youth/Grandaddy

Posted by chainly77 in New Albums 2006 on April 18, 2006

Sonic Youth – Rather Ripped
US: 6th Jun – Geffen
UK: 5th Jun – Geffen

Sonic Youth 的第N张专集, 噪音不再, 到是张不错的INDIE POP专集.
 

 
 
Grandaddy – Just Like The Fambly Cat
US: 9th May – V2
UK: 16th May – V2
 
Grandaddy 去年年底宣布在这张专集后解散, 所以这张绝唱显的相对珍贵, 一贯的封面设计风格, 音乐也保持了较高的水准.

Posted by chainly77 in New Albums 2006 on April 11, 2006

The Raconteurs – Broken Boy Soldiers
US: 16th May – Third Man/V2
UK: 15th May – XL
 

THE WHITE STRIPES的JACK WHITE携手BRENDAN BENSON与另外两为好友组成了THE RACONTEURS.
这是他们的首张专集, 风格近似WHITE STRIPES, 不过配器方面丰富了很多, 不知道这种玩票组合能否会出后继专集.
 
Outstanding track: Steady As She Goes

#52 Hundred Reasons

Posted by chainly77 in New Albums 2006 on April 9, 2006

Hundred Reasons – Kill Your Own
UK: 20th Mar – V2
 

Hundred Reasons在第二张专集推出后被老东家SONY炒掉, 之后乐队主脑加入了Lucky Nine, 不过这并不以为HR已经结素,
现在签约V2以第三张专集从新回归, 风格类似首张传记而且更加旋律化.
 
Outstanding tracks: The Perfect Gift & The Chance

Lambchop – The Decline Of The Country & Western Civilization: 1993-1999
UK: 10th Apr – City Slang
 

LAMBCHOP今年精选的第一张, 奇怪的是两张精选分别在欧洲和北美同步发行, 收入93至99年的PART 1在欧洲发行, 2000年至今的PART 2则在北美发行. 这套精选收录了A-SIDES, B-SIDES, 未发表歌曲及未在CD上发行过的歌.

#50 Snow Patrol

Posted by chainly77 in New Albums 2006 on April 2, 2006

Snow Patrol – Eyes Open
UK: 1st May – Polydor
US: 9th May – A&M

在上张专集获得意外的成功后, SNOW PATROL将推出后继作品, 这其实是他们的第四张了. 独立公司JEEPSTER为他们发行了头两张专集, 几乎问人问津, 不过之后被大公司POLYDOR看中, 而制造了双白金销量的FINAL STRAW, 主要功劳是依靠了其中的单曲RUN. 新专集风格与上一张差不多, 惟独缺少了RUN这样的抒情曲, 不知是否还能那样红.

Outstanding tracks: You’re All I Have & Hands Open
