音乐咖啡厅:Food For The Ants 无序吞噬Yuppie Flu

英文歌词:

Artist:Yuppie Flu
Song:Food For The Ants

Seems like the ants love me

Why they do?

These days of late spring make em

Pretty much around

Close their eyes

Shake their little antennas¹

And sense my past and present

Down a winding² road

Summer hailed and all the ants
Leering by the lunch-box
We're gettin dry
And their amount was growing fast
Widely over their score
We're getting dry

In times of dense³ debris
Dark and blue
We hang on short strings⁴ progress
Gets all around

Open your eyes
It's no work of nature
And life is taken for granted
On this winding road

Summer hailed and all the ants
Leering by the lunch-box
We're gettin dry
And their amount was growing fast
Widely over their score
We're getting dry

All the features have been set off
Every effort is just outta place
What's wrong? Could it be just right?

Million people showing the same face
Every effort is just outta place
What's wrong? Could it be just right?

歌手介绍:

 

低调，悦耳，这是Yuppie Flu带来的第一印象。低调，是说这支成军于1997年，有十年来头的乐队，依然少有资料介绍。听众仅仅知道他们由五人组成，分别是吉他/主唱Matteo Agostinelli，贝司Francesco Chielli，键盘Paolo Agostinelli AKA Dodo，吉他Kyle Statham，及鼓手Geoff Soule。至于"悦耳"的初印象，则建立在乐队的上两张专辑《Days Before The Day》（2003年）、《Toast Masters》（2005年）的基础上。乐队在2008年发行的新专辑《Fragile Forest》，较之先前又得到了提升--混合了Dream-pop和Shoegaze的美好氛围，加之Lo-Fi的零星点缀，扎根于Indie Rock的基调，愈发显得成熟大气。
