乐队简介
English Below
当Alex Foster(主唱),Jeff Beaulieu(吉他),Sef(吉他),Ben Lemelin(贝司),Miss Isabel(主唱和键盘)和Charles Moose Allicy(鼓)聚在一起,在2006年成立了乐队“Your Favorite Enemies"时,他们就决定了根据自己的社会价值和“亲自动手”的态度来管理乐队的每个方面。Your Favorite Enemies独特的肮脏和无暇的混合,内省而震撼的歌词立即吸引了世界各地的歌迷。这些歌迷自发地将他们对乐队的热情投入到了遍布世界的歌迷社区、网站和论坛。
被如此巨大的支持而鼓励,被无数希望购买Your Favorite Enemies音乐的要求所淹没,乐队在2007年4月成立了厂牌“Hopeful Tragedy Records",以提供自制的包括5首歌的EP“And If I Was To Die In the Morning… Would I Still Be Sleeping With You”.这张EP发行于6月1日,包括运费在内全球仅售10美元。虽然缺乏来自前顾问的支持,遭受着他对这样大胆举动能否带来任何潜在的成功的质疑,乐队坚信着歌迷的忠诚,用难以置信的低价格来回报歌迷。
许多人期待着乐队事业上能有所突破,而成立一个通过网络出售EP的决定成为了乐队事业的转折点。2007年末,乐队的EP发行量超过3万张;完成了第一次欧洲宣传之旅;覆盖了国际的主流媒体;成立了“Hopeful Tragedy Records"的多媒体分枝“YFE TV”,每周在网络上播出乐队的近况。不同的因素使Your Faorite Enemies"成为一个最让人兴奋的摆脱传统模式的乐队。
如果说2007年是Your Favorite Enemies为每来的准备,那么接下来的2008年无疑是更精彩的一年。2008年,乐队被Billboard杂志选为2008年最值得观看的五大乐队之一,成为了第一个在Myspace上进行全球现场直播的乐队,日本之旅获得了空前的成功,发行于2008年6月的专辑“Love Is A Promise Whispering Goodbye”发行量已超过6万张,并且成为了第一个为传奇游戏“最终幻想”(Final Fantasy)写歌的乐队。
2011年4月Your Favourite Enemies在中国各地15个以上的各个城市进行了对乐队来说有历史意义的巡演,其中包括北京迷笛音乐节,上海迷笛音乐节和成都热波音乐节的重量级演出。在三个月之后,又受到北京长阳音乐节的邀请来到中国演出。
YFE在2012年继续创作和录制新的音乐。专辑《Vague Souvenir》在2012年8月在全球发行,另一张专辑《Between Illness and Migration》在2013年发行。因为这些新的音乐给乐队带来强大的灵感使他们不停地在世界各地巡演。他们的欧洲Youthful Dreams巡演,在2013年实现,他们登上了英国The Great Escape音乐节的舞台,之后是澳大利亚的Big Sound音乐节,最后第5次去了日本。
2014年, YFE已经在法国的Midem音乐节表演,接踵而至的还有欧洲各地的演出,在4月底5月初,他们又将登陆中国。
When Alex Foster (vocals), Jeff Beaulieu (guitar), Sef (guitar), Ben Lemelin (bass), Miss Isabel (vocals and keys) and Charles Moose Allicy (drums) got together to form Your Favorite Enemies in 2006, they decided to manage every single aspect of the band's career based on their community values and their "do it yourself" attitude. Already known for their commitment towards human rights, Foster being a fervent spokesperson for Amnesty International and a passionate youth speaker, Your Favorite Enemies' distinctive blend of dirty and polished types of melodic textures and their introspective and empowering lyrics instantaneously attracted musical fanatics from all over the world, who organically and spontaneously turned their passion for the band into an incredible multitude of street teams, communities, fan sites and forums emerging in every major city on the planet.
Needless to say that, if 2007 was a good indication of what the future had in store for Your Favorite Enemies, the following year turned out to be an undoubtedly interesting one for the 6 musicians from Montreal, who have been named as one of the top 5 bands to watch out for in 2008 by the Billboard Magazine; a quote which is hard to deny after the incredible success they had in 2008. Success which included being the first band ever to internationally broadcast a real-time live concert on their MySpace page, obtaining extraordinary success for their first Japanese tour, selling more than 60 thousand copies of their second album “Love Is A Promise Whispering Goodbye”, released in June 2008 on the band’s label, Hopeful Tragedy Records, and becoming the first band ever to write songs for the legendary video game franchise Final Fantasy.
In April 2011 Your Favourite Enemies played an epic tour of China in over 15 cities, which also included massive shows at Midi Festival in Beijing and Shanghai and Zebra Music Festival in Chengdu. The band was then invited back to China for Funhill Music Festival 3 months later.
YFE spent 2012 writing and recording new music. Album 'Vague Souvenir' was released worldwide in August 2012, and another album, called 'Between Illness and Migration', was released in 2013. As well as new songs and new cds, the band has been touring non stop. The 'Youthful Dreams' tour in 2013 took Your Favourtite Enemies to Europe, where they played in UK at 'The Great Escape' Festival, and to Australia, where they played at Big Sound Festival, and also to Japan for the 5th time.
In 2014, YFE have already played Midem Festival in France, and shows around Europe, and are planning their third trip to China in April and May.
