简介
暴风骤雨侵袭了无垠的牧场,义愤填膺的学生们涌向街头表达自我主张,或是迁徙的畜群蜂拥至冻土地带,你可以用无限的意象去描绘Red Sparowes音乐中宏大的景象。他们拥有如裁决者一般的对与细微差别的敏锐察觉,以及如印象派艺术大师般的不受阻碍的热情。从2000年到现在的十多年间,这只来自洛杉矶的乐团创造了一种令人难以忘怀的,容易引起幻觉的吉他编曲方式。近些年来,随着他们两张唱片和一些单曲EP的问世,以及他们在美国和欧洲的一系列演出,乐队成员的调整,Red Sparowes正以他们的最佳状态发行了他们的第三张,也是目前为止最令人印象深刻,最具创造力的一张唱片,Fear is Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer.(恐惧总是令人倍感折磨,然而答案就在那里。)
乐队由吉他手Andy Arahood,Clifford Meyer,Emma Ruth Rundle,贝斯手兼踏板电吉他手Greg Burns以及鼓手David Clifford组成。然而乐队作品中人声缺席,完全由器乐编排组成的音乐风格容易让人联想到交响乐式的电影配乐。然而他们的音乐从来不会让听众感觉到他们仅仅是空洞的伴奏,或者是宏大音乐篇章的一小段插曲。他们得每一首作品都拥有各自完整的微观世界,是对与美的创造与再现。
尽管Red Sparowes的作品并不局限于叙事的音乐体裁,他们的相当一部分作品也反映了他们对于世界的思考与看法。在他们2005年的首张专辑At The Soundless Dawn(寂静的黎明)里,Red Sparowes用一个宏大的葬礼致辞的方式科学地阐释了第六次大灭亡的了必然性,也用每首歌的歌曲名字传达了这样的信息。他们第二张全长唱片 Every Red Heart Shines Toward the Red Sun (2006),表达了他们对与一些历史事件的的观点。
在Red Sparowe最近的一张唱片The Fear is Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer中,乐队在唱片的开端表现出了他们对于真理,信念,秩序,因果关系,以及对于了解我们身边这个更大的世界的与生俱来需求的存在主义沉思。然而Red Sparowes作品中的宏大意象并不一定需要具体故事的支撑,作品中更多的隐喻提升了他们作品的思想高度和厚重感。
在乐队第三张唱片The Fear Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer 中,我们看到了乐队在音乐风格和规模上的巨大突破。整张唱片仍然保留了乐队具有层次感的编曲以及渐强的吉他音墙,美式民谣风格般的黑色音景,如作品In Every Mind,以及充满荣誉感的狂欢旋律Giving Birth to Imagined Saviors。乐队过往的作品通常是着眼整张唱片,用不同的作品来诠释一个宏大的主题,然而乐队的新唱片则是着眼于每首单独的歌,用一首首独立的作品诠释更加独立的特性。过去,乐队长远往往尝试着用巨大的音墙来推动歌曲的进展,然而现在的他们则将他们庞大乐曲的推动与一些明显的单独的更加温和的器乐小品结合起来,使作品更加缓和。在过去的三年中,有些乐迷可能会怀疑 Red Sparowes已经从大众视野中消失了,而现在,我们可以明显感觉到他们正在开启他们最宏大,也最华丽的新篇章。
Thunderheads storming across the prairie, outraged students taking to the streets, migratory herds stampeding along the tundra--any number of images could describe the grandiose scope of Red Sparowes’ lush vignettes. Wielding both a master’s sense of nuance and an outsider artist’s unhindered expressionist zeal, the Los Angeles quintet created a catalog of haunting and hallucinatory guitar orchestrations over the course of the millennium’s opening decade. With two albums, a string of split releases, multiple U.S. and European tours, and a number of line-up changes under their belt, Red Sparowes are currently poised to release their third album and most impressive creation to date, The Fear is Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer.
It’s tempting to describe the collaborative efforts of guitarists Andy Arahood, Bryant Clifford Meyer, Emma Ruth Rundle, bassist/pedal steel player Greg Burns and drummer David Clifford as soundtrack music. The absence of lyrical vocals and full reliance on instrumentation conjures comparisons to symphonic cinema pieces. Yet no composition in the Red Sparowes cannon feels subservient to a visual companion piece. Their music never comes across as a disembodied accompaniment, a partial representation of a larger composition. Every song is its own complete microcosm, a completely realized and contained moment of beauty.
Though Red Sparowes’ music thrives unbound by narrative, the band provides a roadmap to their muse. Their 2005 debut album, At The Soundless Dawn, cast the scientific inevitability of the Sixth Extinction into a grand funeral oration, revealing the message within the individual track titles. Their second full-length, Every Red Heart Shines Toward the Red Sun (2006) likewise provided a synopsis of the Great Sparrow campaign of the Great Leap Forward, laying bare its conceptual role. And, the jabbing assertions of the titles to the Aphorisms EP (2008 digital, 2009 12" vinyl) served a thematic precursor to the next album.
Red Sparowes' latest offering, The Fear is Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer, began with the larger existential pondering of truth, faith, order, causality, and the innate demand for an understanding of the larger world around us. While Red Sparowes’ majesty is hardly in need of story, the provision of the larger metaphor yields a heightened depth and gravity to their work.
There has never been as pronounced of a leap in style and scope as with Red Sparowes' third full length. The Fear is Excruciating, But Therein Lies the Answer maintains their layered arrangements and swirling amplified crescendos, Americana noir soundscapes (punctuated by the extended pedal steel on “In Every Mind”), and gloriously triumphant melodies (“Giving Birth to Imagined Saviors”). Earlier records focused on the larger scope of the album, but the new album is song-centered, with the individual tracks harboring stronger independent identities. And where previous endeavors found the band propelled by enormous walls of sound, they now temper their monolithic progressions with distinct passages of separated and soft-spoken instrumentation. Red Sparowes were suspiciously absent from the playing field over the last three years, and now it’s apparent that they were busy drafting the grandest statement and finest achievement of their existence.
