Voxtrot

The Smith + The Stone Roses + Belle&Sebastian
有沒有這麼屌的組合!
2004成立於德州奧斯丁的Voxtrot,發行過3張EP,直到今年初才發行第一張專輯,
而為了回饋等待許久的歌迷,新專輯收錄的都是全新的曲目(Voxtrot就甘心ㄟ)
悅耳的旋律,流暢的吉他,分明的鼓點,加上主唱Ramesh Srivastava清新乾淨的聲音,
不難從他們身上,聽到Belle&Sebastian和The Smith的影子。
如果說聽音樂和戀愛一樣有日久生情跟一見鍾情,
那麼Voxtrot一定是屬於馬上會讓人墜入情海的那個部分,
畢竟,在他們的音樂中,看到太多舊情人的美好...
(幹..怎麼像很濫又想騙錢的側標....)
附上兩首試聽
This time of night I could call you up
I'd get angry with athletic ease, break common laws in twos and threes
If I die clutching your photograph
Don't call me boring, It's just 'cause I like you
Take me on back... take me back
To the place where I could feel your heart
Is this the end or just the start of
Something really, really beautiful
Wrapped up and disguised as something really, really ugly,
Won't you...
Come by and see me, I'm a love letter away
I'd break your name before I'd say, "I really love you, love you, "
I don't care if you saw, I watched every inch of film
Flash across your Roman features,
And I loved it, loved it; I don't care if
You think I'm eager to shut your eyes, well
I'm sorry-everybody knows you can't break me with your gutter prose
Would you believe it, she sent me a letter,
The ring, it nearly weighs her down, she's got another boy, oh boy
Steady your ears... read my lips
Poetry is not a luxury, it's how I'll break this home
And when I'm really ill, won't you cradle me?
Man is not a noble animal, but maybe woman is, remember,
I heard you...
Inside your room, you said, "You never really live
Until your back's against the wall, " oh did you really mean it?
I never break my gaze, if just to see this scar remain reflected in your eyes
I think it's time to go home
Oh, tell me your thoughts, tell me your thoughts on liberty,
See there's a place where I sink to sleeping
Oh, my vote is as red as my blood
Will you join me for another round? I haven't had the chance to speak yet
God speed...
I break the law once every week to feel your touch,
What's a book to you in bed, Do you feel better, older?
This just makes me ill, your name is dripping from my pen
Still you're not around to curse,
I'll drop the gun now, I'm still under you...
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep tonight.
Marianne, let the ghosts sleep, just shut your eyes and burn the past away
Listen to the sounds of ringing out around you
By me to the wind, you talk me out of standstill
Cheer me up, cheer me up, I'm a miserable fuck
You sound of vanity whore
Cheer me up, cheer me up, I'm a miserable fuck
You sound of vanity whore

真的很有 Belle&Sebastian那種清新的感覺呢
