很遗憾昨天发布的Battles 新单曲MV已经被屏|蔽了。本来还想说舔完Battles的Ice Cream再来尝尝Yuck 的奶昔。
英国新晋独立摇滚乐队Yuck即将在6月发行double A-side 单曲”Shook Down”/”Milkshake”,前者收录在同名专辑中,后者在这里: Shook Down / Milkshake by Yuck
非常上耳爽朗的刷弦,旋律也依旧讨喜,像是穿上了一条崭新的、天蓝色的做旧牛仔裤。
Yuck让人印象深刻的不仅仅是——校园情怀、90年代复古、或者想让人没心没肺潇洒生活的噪音摇滚。还有一样没心没肺让人忍不住yuck一声的专辑/单曲封面。我一直都很好奇是哪位“艺术家”能画出如此风格统一,丑到一定程度但又让人不太讨厌的封面,原来就是乐队成员,Yuck的核心人物:Daniel Blumberg,这些极具艺术感的封面都是这位才华男子平时写作歌词时的信手拈来啊:
Pitchfork: What’s the deal with the album’s artwork? Did you draw it?
DB: Yeah, it’s very much linked to the music. When I’m writing songs or using paper to write lyrics, there’s normally a drawing next to it. It’s part of my daily life to draw or make music. I haven’t yet gotten to that stage where I sit down and have to do something creative. That sense of freedom is quite precious.
你觉得好看吗亲?
