Untoten - Best Of [2007]


Untoten - Best Of
Genre: Goth Rock
Label: Von Grafenwald
Release Date: Mar-17-2007
Quality: VBRkbps / Joint-Stereo
URL: untoten.com

Review:
With a total of 11 full-length albums in their long band history, it was about time for the ‘creative leaders’ (Zillo) of the German Gothic Scene, to release their first ‘Best Of’ Album! With their unique and always ‘darker than darkest’ sound full of irony, Untoten succeed to create ‘aural landscapes’, worlds of images and feelings, mourning and longing among their countless followers. Greta Csatlos’ voice – at times fragile and tender, then again full of passion and intensity – and David A. Line’s melody-lines create songs of rare intensity and beauty for over a decade. This ‘Best of’, coming with 12 pages booklet including all lyrics and a special ‘photo gallery’, contains the early indie-hits, such as the provoking ‘Sperm Finger’ or the wonderful ‘Absence of Light’, as well as more recent ‘classics’ such as ‘Herz der Finsternis’, Willst Du?’, ‘Blutrot, die Liebe’ or ‘Cynthia’ – tracks that have become ‘ever-greens’ in the German and international gothic club-scene!

Untoten,来自德国的四人歌特金属乐队,其音乐风格“比黑暗更黑暗”。以前没有接触过,今日试听了这张唯一的精选辑《Best Of》的最后两首“Morbid Lover”和“Angel”,没感觉到任何黑暗,不同于印象里这类音乐中常有的女主音高亢、嘹亮、尖锐或者歌剧似的或者带有宗教感的或者凄惨的或者悦耳的heavenly voice,两位女主唱的嗓音非常特别,有点像感冒了,但不是充满磁性的沙哑。总之很好听。

Medusa’s Spell - Mercurial Behaviour [2006]


Label: Cold Meat Industry
Catalog#: CMI155
Format: CD, Album, Digipak
Country: Sweden
Released: 23 Jun 2006
Genre: Electronic
Style: Industrial, Ambient
Credits: Producer, Engineer - Simon Balestrazzi

Reviews: Mercurial Behaviour is a conceptual album on which every “act” represents the confused thoughts and visions of a murderer.
Lyrics and words are rearranged in different ways and moments to create a hypnotic mantra leading us in different directions and states of emotions; all intertwined through a soft and haunting dark atmosphere created by piano, acoustic guitar, bells, industrial sounds, loops and of course that broken Italian psychotic voice of Daniele Serra.
Medusa’s Spell is a filmic dark-ambient-pop project of Mara Lasi and Daniele Serra, known from the parallel project Chirleison (amongst others) who released a CD on Fossil Dungeon in 2004.
The album was recorded and engineered by the legendary Simon Balestrazzi (TAC, Kirlian Camera) at the Neurohabitat studio.

Die Form - The Missing Beauty (video) [1999]

Die Form 是法国的虐恋组合,他们制作怪异、性感、未来主义的黑暗电子音乐已近30年。他们专心于虐恋这一生活方式,除了创作天才而堕落的音乐以外,还从事摄影、行为艺术和摄像等活动。
Die Form 的电子音乐风格赤裸,强调肉欲却又十分艳丽。里面充满的是歌剧遗韵,古典意味,部落色彩以及一些深藏在我们内心最深处的官能冲动。他们的音乐是针对光明与黑暗,男性与女性,美丽与悲伤,acoustic与电子,以及爱慕与激情的对照研究。

初次接触 Die Form 大概在5年前,当时对其音乐一直未能接受,Fichot野兽般的吼叫以及电气化噪音太过极端和嘈杂,之后就一直没有关注。去年了解到其后来的专辑中Fichot已逐渐退出男声,而主要由古典女高音Elaine P.的演唱推动全曲发展,并加入大量小提琴元素。

在“Duality”专辑中,首度引入充满妖气的日本神秘女歌手Mutsumi Oku 。这首“The Missing Beauty”即选自“Duality”,女声部分由Mutsumi Oku吟唱,音乐风格及舞者的表演具有强烈的东瀛风格。表演者应该也是Mutsumi Oku。穿着和服的舞者随着悠扬的音乐而诡异起舞;在一分半种左右,音乐进入第一次变奏,表演者舞姿开始变得淫荡;三分半钟左右进入第二次变奏(高潮部分),表演者解开和服纵情舞蹈;五分四十秒左右,音乐迂回至开始阶段的悠扬,表演者脱去和服进行了一段优雅的裸体舞蹈,有点类似中国的太极,飘逸而忧伤,让我想起台湾林怀民的舞蹈作品。

在Die Form的音乐影像里,舞者裸体表演完全是正常的,被艺术化和黑暗化的女人的裸体是Die Form音乐的重要组成部分。
