专辑介绍:
Elvis Costello是位无师自通的歌曲创作者,1969年开始登台演出,Elvis Costello的第一张唱片于1977年发行的时候,他那令人毛骨悚然的讽刺和愤怒不得不使人们把他和朋克及新浪潮运动联系起来。任何一个听过“My Aim Is True”的人都能证明Costello和朋克主要的联系就是他那肆无忌惮的激情。他从经典摇滚中任意索取他想要的一切,也从乡村音乐中索取。还有 Pop、Reggae等多种音乐类型。音乐的多样性,加上锋利的歌词,使Costello别具一格。因为他用多元化的音乐去搭配他的歌词, Costello被认为是自Bob Dylan后最具创新精神,最有影响,也是最好的歌曲创作者之一。
Elvis Costello(埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)1954年8月25日出生在伦敦,他是从朋克和新浪潮狂潮中涌现出来的英国第一流的摇滚乐天才。自1977年他第一次出现在舞台上起,他已经成长为一位伟大的歌手和歌曲创作者。尽管科斯特洛从来没有跻身于唱片销量超级明星行列,但他却深受同行和批评家的尊敬。他把多种元素和朋克结合起来并加以改良,使得音乐听起来没那么极端。他是一个流行音乐人的同时还是歌手与歌曲创作者,这些音乐天赋都跟他是以色列后裔这一事实息息相关。在80年代初期,Elvis Costello是发扬伦敦酒吧摇滚场景艺术为数不多的先锋人物。在形成自己独特的风格和唱腔之前,他也曾投身于朋克音乐和新浪潮音乐。Elvis Costello的第一张唱片于1977年发行。
If Spike seemed frustratingly incoherent, it's nothing compared to Mighty Like a Rose, a deliberately dense, difficult record that is easily the most impenetrable that Elvis Costello ever cut. With producers Mitchell Froom and Kevin Killen, Costello made a record with no easy entrances, even if the sparkling Beach Boys-esque "The Other Side of Summer" and the lovely "So Like Candy" would have been accessible with different production. And, certainly, production is the most notable thing about this record. Filled with clattering production, spongy bass, cardboard guitars, studio white noise, and layers upon layers of tracks, there's so much going on that it's hard to get to the core of the songs. Not that Costello makes it any easier for the listener, either, since only a few songs (the aforementioned pair, plus "All Grown Up" and "Playboy to a Man") don't seem self-satisfied in their own construction. And his performances are nearly as affected as the songs, as he over-sings (albeit for effect) and contributes to the muddy wall of sound. Yes, this is "interesting," but it takes many plays before you realize all those "interesting" effects lead nowhere -- only to the strangest record Costello ever cut (and that's not a compliment, unfortunately). - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG
