(欧美)英伦低调---Black box recorder

admin

英伦低调－美丽性感的声音游离于地狱和天堂 Hut旗下的著名低调乐队auteurs的灵魂及前卫人物luke　haines和两个毕业于戏剧学院的年轻人sarah和john组建：black　box　recorder。　从auteurs最近的那张恶毒的专辑“after　murder　park”的黑色噪音里挣脱的luke，在音乐表层上不知不觉地陷入一种微妙、细腻、蜜糖般沉着文静的情趣中去，而更多的原因在于"两个临时"演员“——john唯美而保守的和谐吉他点弦与sarah沉闷疲倦、冷静得有些骇人并固袭默守的嗓音所赋予的特性，这亦是这张唱片卒听似是源自4ad的原因——标准英式的对于沉着从容而易使人心迷神乱的情节的酿造，厌世并避世的幽雅的童话故事及绝望疯癫的金斯勃格与不安的叶芝的融合体。



也许，阴暗、悲观才是我感受灵魂时的最爱。躲在角落发呆的时候，我会选择Black Box Recorder。
听Black Box Recorder的歌，感觉像是刚在塔楼顶上哭过，精疲力竭，眼泪在脸上渐渐被风干，流过泪的皮肤慢慢紧绷，张开双臂，大口呼吸，眯起眼睛，看着楼下的灯火阑珊，轻轻一跃，跳下去，却忽然发现自己摆脱了地球引力，随着微风飘向未知的远方……
这个三人乐队自1998年组队至今只发了三张专辑，却让我爱得不行。女主唱Sarah Nixey媚惑而性感的声线，糖衣般的调子，懒洋洋的配乐，唱着关于失落、悲观、自杀、甚至乎变态的歌词，对比就像地狱与天堂。易碎的少女唱腔，渲染着灵魂的流放，寻找着迅速回归精神本原的捷径：年轻、性感、美好的声音与阴冷、忧郁的思想，悲苦、冷漠、歇斯底里的情绪。哪一个才是最真实的？或者，每一个都是最真实的存在？Black Box Recorder，选择在黑暗中腐烂，或在黑暗中化蝶。
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it.
这是专辑中“Child Psychology”的一句歌词，正如这两个无法调和的选择，Black Box Recorder的音乐里同样有着硬币的两面：主唱Sarah Nixey和灵魂人物Luke Haines手中的魔杖。Sarah 甜美易碎的声线是惑人心神的迷香，让人沉浸在冥想中，似乎一切都是美好与细腻。而此刻阴冷深霾的曲调和歌词，却又暗暗述说着绝望、末日和怪异心态。与此同时，Black Box Recorder的配乐简约得让人惊讶，仅只寥寥几笔点缀，便造就了完美的氛围和旋律，游走在硬币的两面，将所有的罪恶深藏在甜腻的面具中。
从背景音乐就听出,有点疲惫,有点颓废,是那昔日的爱恋，是那曾经的缤纷,还是那逝去的温暖?寂寞的灵魂，寒冷阴森，极度罪恶，却慢慢地，慢慢地入侵我的身体，肆意滋长，蛊惑着……

Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do
When boys are just eleven
They begin to grow in height at a fast rate than they have done before
They develop curiosity and start to fantasize
About the things they have never thought of doing before
These dreams are no more harmful than
The usual thoughts that boys have of becoming football stars or millionaires
As long as the distinction between fantasy and fiction remains
It's just a nature walk
It's just the facts of life
There's no master plan
Walk me home from school
I'll let you hold my hand
You're getting ideas
And when you sleep at night
They develop into sweet dreams
It's just the facts of life
A boy sits by the telephone, wanting to call a girl
But not daring to because she might say no
At last he summons up the courage phones
And discovers someone else has asked her first and she's said yes
Now's time to deal with the fear of being rejected
No-one gets through life without being hurt
At this point the boy who's listening to this song
Is probably saying it's easier said than done and it's true
It's just the facts of life
There's no master plan
Walk me home from school
I'll let you hold my hand
You're getting ideas
And when you sleep at night
They develop into sweet dreams
It's just the facts of life
Do do do, do do do
Do do do, do do do
Small-town dating differs from more urban situations
In particular if there's few places to go
Adolescents normally gather in a cafe or an arcade
If they have to almost anywhere will do
A family car, a disused coalmine
A rowing boat or a shed
Experimentation, familiarization
It's all a nature walk
It's just the facts of life
There's no master plan
Walk me home from school
I'll let you hold my hand
You're getting ideas
And when you sleep at night
They develop into sweet dreams
It's just the facts of life
It's just the facts of life (Sweet dreams develop into ideas)
There's no master plan (Ideas develop into sweet dreams)
Walk me home from school (Sweet dreams develop into ideas)
I'll let you hold my hand (Let you hold my hand)
You're getting ideas (Sweet dreams develop into ideas)
And when you sleep at night (Ideas develop into sweet dreams)
They develop into sweet dreams (Sweet dreams develop into ideas)
It's just the facts of life
It's just the facts of life (Sweet dreams develop into ideas)
There's no master plan (Ideas develop into sweet dreams)
Walk me home from school (Sweet dreams develop into ideas)
I'll let you hold my hand (Let you hold my hand)
