New Music: der Berliner Nebel 柏林的雾, The Valley Surfer 山谷冲浪手, 闷声
MenSheng 闷声 - 门心
Formed in Beijing in late 2019 by guitarist Peng Ziwei, Mensheng delights on their debut EP ‘ - hitting both conventions of the genre with surgical aplomb whilst gloriously defying against it. Ethereal walls of noise and dreamy guitar chords that call to mind some of shoegaze’s finest - throw in chugging post punk funk grooves, with a touch of visceral raw energy that comes with hardcore punk - and now you’re veering in unknown territory and for all the better. It’s wildly propulsive stuff, and at just three tracks, leaves you eagerly awaiting what’s next from the band.
由吉他手彭子维于2019年底在北京成立,对于闷声的首张 EP,他们乐在其中 --以外科手术式的优雅打破了流派的惯例,并光荣地违背了它。空灵的噪音墙和梦幻般的吉他和弦,让人想起一些盯鞋的优秀作品--再加上后朋克的放克节奏,以及硬核朋克带来的发自肺腑的原始能量--现在你正转向探索更好的未知领域。推动力极强,虽然只有三首曲子,但令你急切地期待着乐队的下一步进展。

der Berliner Nebel 柏林的雾 - Telescreen 屏幕
Cited as the hybrid heirs of post punk - der Berliner Nebel (or The Berlin Fog) -out of Ningbo bring their topsy-turvy genre-crossing sensibilities to full light on their debut LP, Screen, out on Modern Sky. Paying tribute to classic films of their youth, with songs that evoke everything from Johnnie To’s Gunsmoke to David Fincher’s The Game, there’s a playful boisterousness to the band’s sound - as they pogo from horn-infused proto-punk to simmering 80s-synth-loving new wave with reckless abandon and sly conviction. It doesn’t always hit its mark, but der Berliner Nebel have the swagger and prove they’re a band with plenty of tricks up their sleeve.
被称为混合后朋克的继承人--柏林的雾,这支来自宁波的乐队在他们的首张唱片《屏幕》中充分展现了他们颠覆性的跨流派之感,由摩登天空发行。向他们年轻时的经典电影致敬,他们的歌曲令人想起了从 Johnnie To 的 Gunsmoke 到 David Fincher 的 The Game 的一切,乐队的声音有一种俏皮的喧闹感--因为他们从充满管乐的原始朋克到80年代的合成器新浪潮 pogo 而来。他们的音乐并不总能击中要害,但 柏林的雾乐队有足够的自信去证明他们是一支富有技巧的乐队。

The Valley Surfer 山谷冲浪手 - Falling into nightmare 墜入夢裡
The Valley Surfer, who hail from Fenghuang, are the latest act to shake off the residue of the indie pop bombast of late, instead, finding comfort in a variety of ingredients on their debut Falling into Nightmare. Everything from shoegaze to surf rock with hints of emo, dream pop, and straight-up noise rock gets its due - giving their tracks a loose and intrepid impression that may stretch itself too thin yet never comes off as derivative. Far from a grand slam - but embedded with a robust musicality and tightly-wound melodies it’s clear The Valley Surfer are a band we’re going to hear a lot from in the future.
来自凤凰的山谷冲浪手,摆脱了最近浮夸的独立流行音乐的残余,与之相反,他们的首张专辑《墜入夢裡》呈现了各样的舒适和慰藉。从盯鞋到冲浪摇滚,再到情绪摇滚、梦泡和直接的噪音摇滚,一切都得到了应有的回报,他们的歌曲令人留下了松散和无畏的印象,可能会使得自己自己的部分过于稀疏,但绝不会像衍生品一样。他们的作品并非所谓大满贯,但却蕴含着强大的音乐性和紧凑的旋律,显然山谷冲浪手是一支我们在未来会频繁听到的乐队。
