简介:
专辑介绍:The Lords Of The New Church 是组建于1982年的后朋乐队,由Dead Boy的主唱Stiv Bators 和the Damned的吉他手Brian James组建。乐队的贝斯手 Dave Tregunna也是大牌乐队Sham 69的成员之一,鼓手Nick Turner则来自the Barracudas。四位乐手都来自大牌乐队,The Lords Of The New Church 自然成为人们关注的焦点。1982年,乐队发行了第一张同名专辑,获得巨大成功,这张带着强烈哥特味的后朋唱片至今任然是乐队的经典作品。
Although their roots were in punk rock, their debut album announced to the world that the Lords of the New Church were not your average punk band. They had ambitions: they would be the last beacon of truth in a world nearing its end. And while you can't call The Lords of the New Church entirely successful — for every high point like "Open Your Eyes" or "Russian Roulette" there's a clunker like "Portobello" or "Eat Your Heart Out" — you can't fault their effort. Guitarist Brian James and the Tregunna/Turner rhythm section provide a wide-screen setting, with guest musicians adding synths and horns to the guitar bass, and drums foundation. But the face, mouth, and heart of the Lords was Stiv Bators, who casts himself here in the role of rock & roll poet/preacher/prophet. He was no Bob Dylan, to be sure, but on The Lords of the New Church Bators demonstrates lyrical maturity surprising to anyone who ever heard Dead Boys songs like "I Need Lunch." Consider these few lines from "New Church," which may not be high art, but make their point and also serve as a neat summary of the Lords ethos: "Truth can't be found on the television/Throw away youth ya gotta take a stand/Music is your only weapon/Spanners in the works go start your gang...." Lords of the New Church is very much an artifact of the Reagan era and somewhat dated in its approach, but Bators' core message of personal freedom, and the fervor and sincerity with which he delivered it, have retained their resonance across the years.
