the rakes
简介
2004年成军的The Rakes，走着复古摇滚的路线，同样带着当时英国兴起的新音乐浪潮，NME在他们发行了首张专辑后，评论说英国有了一个新的浪子乐队。所以他们的出道也伴随着被人们拿来与The Libertines比较。但是他们的首张专辑在05年确实拿下了一个好成绩，拿的有实力，专辑也被许多媒体给予高分的评价。 Proof that one fantastic single is all it takes to make a bands name, the Rakes burst onto the London music scene in 2004 with 22 Grand Job, a pithy punk satire of crappy entry-level office jobs. Various stories swirled about how the band — which featured vocalist/guitarist Alan Donohoe, guitarist Matthew Swinnerton, bassist Jamie Hornsmith, and drummer Lasse Petersen — got together, ranging from elaborate tales of meeting on a flight to Amsterdam to the more plausible explanation of being childhood friends. The Rakes played a few local dates before unleashing 22 Grand Job, which was released as a limited-edition 7 by Trash Aesthetics, also the early home to Bloc Party. The single also appeared on the Fierce Panda compilation EP On the Buzzes. The band spent that spring and summer recording and supporting like-minded acts such as Bloc Party, the Others, and Art Brut. In the fall, the Rakes released their second single, Strasbourg, on City Rockers and embarked on their first tour. After signing with V2, the band rang in 2005 by gigging and working on their debut album. The singles Retreat and Work, Work, Work (Pub, Club, Sleep) anticipated the released of Capture/Release in the U.K. in summer 2005. Dim Mak released Retreat as an EP in the U.S. that fall, coinciding with the Rakes first stateside tour. Capture/Release arrived in the U.S. in spring 2006. (更多)
