GoodBooks

小簡(jiǎn)介
又是一只從英國(guó)媒體手下走出來的新軍，由4個(gè)名成員組成，音樂類型是獨(dú)立搖滾加點(diǎn)小電的英倫搖滾。去年12月份發(fā)行第一只單曲“ Leni”，今年4月份又發(fā)行單曲“The Illness”。在倆只單曲的基礎(chǔ)上，他們的知名度也慢慢的熱了起來，加上媒體的宣傳于評(píng)價(jià)。GoodBooks的在新樂隊(duì)中人氣越來越高，首張專輯《Control》也在這樣的基礎(chǔ)上，準(zhǔn)備在7月份發(fā)行了。新專輯發(fā)行前的第一只單曲“Passchendaele ”就是一只出色的單曲，成績(jī)不俗。雖然這樣說，但讓我覺得他們與以前從媒體手下出來的新軍來說遜色多了，不過他們確實(shí)在長(zhǎng)相上面很不錯(cuò)，不論主唱Max Cooke，還是其他成員，都有好幾分貌像。音樂方面讓我說，音樂特點(diǎn)不是很突出，多聽?zhēng)妆榭梢杂行碌陌l(fā)現(xiàn)，最終我覺得有幾只單曲很不錯(cuò)。如：“The Illness”，“Passchendaele”，“Leni” 和 “Violent Man Lovesong”。每個(gè)人的口味不同，說不定你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)的更多。
by Kenyon HopkinThe members of British band GoodBooks had known each other for years prior to their first jam. In the early 2000s the guys were part of a prior incarnation called the Fingerprints. After a minor line-up change, the band, schooled in Brit-pop as well as electronic, continued as GoodBooks. Frontman Max Cooke, bassist Christopher Porter, keyboardist JP Duncan, and drummer Leo von Bulow-Quirk launched their own label. A major leap forward came when the Magic Numbers added them as a support act. GoodBooks soon signed on with Transgressive records before being added to the roster of Columbia. The debut album Control arrived in summer 2007, which had followed several singles and EPs.
