內容簡介
內容簡介 距離上一張錄音室專輯《Kveikur》整整十年了。期間雖有多張配樂、現場演出作品問世,甚至還有配合睡眠、純粹環境音樂的串流上架,冰島樂團Sigur Rós對於近年觀照的「氣候變遷」、「人類厄運」的主題探索,從未停止(或是遺忘)。最新專輯《Átta》,以有史以來最大的樂團編制(聯合41人組成的管弦樂團),搭配最細緻微小的曲式變化,以及主唱Jónsi無與倫比的美麗歌聲,創作出更加柔和、也更加尖銳的變體:憂鬱、沮喪和絕望。"Standard CD with slipcase (1 x CD in digisleeve). Following it’s surprise digital release, Sigur Rós’ first new studio album in ten years, ÁTTA, is their most intimate and emotionally direct record to date. Few bands cut through the noise and distractions of the world to bring you a pure elemental truth or feeling like Sigur Rós. As you hear on ÁTTA, there’s a new compulsion and drive to the band that comes with the new formation of the line up. Multi-instrumentalist Kjartan Sveinsson is back in the fold – having left the band in 2012 – to join frontman Jónsi and bassist Georg Holm. Recorded across multiple continents - in the band’s Sundlaugin studio in Iceland, the legendary Abbey Road in the UK and a number of studios in the US - ÁTTA leans heavily towards the orchestral, and touches on everything that has made Sigur Rós one of the most ambitious and acclaimed bands of recent times, with close to ten million albums sold, whilst signposting an exciting and expansive possibility for their future. ÁTTA prominently features the London Contemporary Orchestra conducted by Robert Ames, alongside brass performed by longtime Icelandic collaborators Brassgat í bala. It is mixed and co-produced by another frequent collaborator Paul Corley, alongside the band."Tracklist1. Glóð 3:392. Blóðberg 7:163. Skel 4:594. Klettur 6:315. Mór 5:476. Andrá 4:077. Gold 5:138.
