- The Kooks( 初哥乐队 )【 共收藏 224 首歌 】
- 对于这组来自英国南部渡假胜地Brighton的四人乐团(主唱Luke Pritchard、吉它手Hugh Harris、贝斯手Max Rafferty,以及鼓手Paul Garred),每个人都有话要说。NME说:“放眼当今流行乐坛年轻新世代,The Kooks的主唱兼创作核心Luke Pritchard,为其中最优秀的唱作人之一。”,WHAT’S ON说:“The Kooks是我们2005年所见,最杰出优异的现场演出乐队。”,英国卫报说:“他们创造出继The Strokes的‘Last Nite’之后,最生猛有劲的年轻独立摇滚作品。”,除了这些叮叮当当的赞誉和头衔之外,他们于2005年发表的首支单曲Eddie’s Gun,更同时被英国卫报与太阳报选做当周最佳单曲。
做为乐队的创作中心,尚未满20岁的主唱Luke认为,音乐创作除了不该画地自限,更毋需畏惧走向大众流行,这样成熟的想法竖立了他们丰富多元且悦耳的音乐风格。年轻的The Kooks(其中吉它手Hugh不过才十七岁)初生之犊不怕虎,重现Supergrass与Blur刚闯荡乐坛时的青春无敌。他们更自诩成为一组让人跟着起舞的摇滚乐队,乐队首张以男性勃起障碍为主题的单曲Eddie’s Gun,与第二张单曲Sofa Song,相继面市后就宣告目标达成,让众多传媒纷纷加码买进。事实上Luke那把近期乐团少见的神奇嗓音,给人一种不管怎么唱,唱什么都好听的惊喜,然而搭配乐队优异的创作能力与绝佳的默契,让人体会到“与其频频回首,盼望着老团再现当初水平,不如看看这旭日初升带来的璀灿亮丽”的道理。
初哥乐队(The Kooks)是一队来自英国布赖顿的摇滚乐队,成立于2004年,风格为后朋克音乐。

简介
2006年发行首张专辑《翻天覆地 Inside In / Inside Out》后,The Kooks缔造全球2百万张的惊人销量,他们先后入围角逐Q杂志、MTV欧洲音乐大奖与全英音乐奖等年度重要奖项,并一举夺下英国Radio 1听众票选“2006年最佳乐队”头衔。首张专辑发行后,The Kooks很争气地一路攀升至英国金榜亚军,今天他们则带着全新大碟《KONK》重返乐坛,破除许多新兴乐队后继无力的恐怖魔咒,此次二度出辑The Kooks气势强压乐坛老将新秀,成功空降英国金榜冠军宝座。现年22岁的主唱Luke Pritchard,身为乐队的创作灵魂,他擅长以流行旋律表现摇滚、放克、灵魂与雷鬼等不同曲风,他笔下的歌词简洁有力,总是能够轻易触动乐迷的心。
2007年英国媒体首度披露,The Kooks在人事上面临前所未见的挑战,甚至一度出现他们可能解散的传言。而贝斯手Max Rafferty脱队的消息,在2008年1月底正式获得乐队证实,目前他的遗缺由同乡乐队Cat The Dog的贝斯手Dan Logan暂时顶替。
虽然历经人事变动,2008年对The Kooks却是一个全新的开始,他们先是靠着第二张专辑的主打单曲〈Always Where I Need To Be〉打入全英单曲榜第3名,今(2008)年甫于4月底发行的最新大碟《KONK》,更直接空降全英专辑榜冠军。
当初The Kooks在首张专辑录制期间,总计创作了整整21首作品,这次为了筹备第二张专辑,乐队则足足写了将近90首歌曲,而去芜存菁的结果你正拿在手上。专辑名称《KONK》主要是根据他们本次选用的录音室来命名,位于英国伦敦的KONK,是英国经典乐队The Kinks主唱Ray Davies的个人名下财产,也是The Kooks完成音乐再进化的主要据点。事实上除了伦敦的KONK,本张专辑的录音地点还包括同样位于伦敦的RAK录音室,团员们甚至还远渡重洋,亲自造访美国好莱坞的录音室Sound Factory。由于双方对于上次合作成果都感到十分满意,此次The Kooks二度邀请首张专辑制作人Tony Hoffer (Beck, Air, Belle & Sebastian)回锅监制。流行悦耳的旋律始终是The Kooks创作的根本,他们这一次在后制工作上花费了更多心力,在编曲与混音上更加严谨要求,保有摇滚与实验精神,却不给人愤世嫉俗的压力。主打单曲〈Always Where I Need To Be〉副歌部份的do-do-do哼唱与拍手声,十分傻气俏皮,营造出过耳难忘的绝佳感染力;〈Do You Wanna〉的吉他飙奏,展现他们前所未见的强悍,Luke的声音不仅未见退缩,还在亢奋与低回中变换自如;〈Sway〉中吉他手Hugh Harris展现他精湛的弹奏技巧;〈Mr. Maker〉是乐队捏造出来的虚构人物;〈One Last Time〉、〈Gap〉两首歌曲,则是让人揪心的惨情告白。
