南半球这边正是三九寒冬,不如来几张清冷的专辑配合一下吧(抖~)

既像氛围又像器乐后摇的风格… 主唱Eric Howde飘渺的声线让人揪心.
意境虽然不及Sigur Ros那样超脱出尘, 却也出离不远.
"We Are Never Young”的歌词我尤其喜欢:
from every room hearts spoke through walls too thin to hold
the weight of what they heard
so fires crept through spaces long left soft and blurrednotes pushed under the doors
frozen to the floor we believed everything
leaves blown beneath the eaves
whirring like a nest of wound-up starlings
we were youngwe didn’t heed those things
if birds were singing we were lovedwe were young
like the universe
like our mothers were
like these words

同样是来自加拿大, Sugar Shack (有时也写作sugarshack) 听起来就比较温暖一点点. 他们形容自己的风格为instrumental stucco, 大量重重叠叠的吉他riff是少不了的.
"Nobody Congratulates the Automatic Pilot” 一曲气场不错 (EITS的爱好者应该都会喜欢这种风格) 只可惜这张专辑里面的曲子偏短, 爆发力度小了点.
另外附送Sugarshack的2009年EP “Stay Calm and Remain Quiet”
