英樂架:Tamas Wells - 空城
倘若我們對這個世界不再留戀,
便可以一直旅行。
可是能夠看見多少好的風(fēng)景?
等到風(fēng)景都看透,
于是變成一座城。
里面只有我和你,
你不用急著回去,
聽我唱你最熟悉的旋律,
陪你到天明……

tamas wells : about
?
Since emerging 3 years ago in a vibrant Melbourne music scene, Tamas Wells has become well known to discerning music listeners around Australia and overseas. The bands debut three track single Cigarettes, a Tie and a Free Magazine from 2002 and the subsequent home recorded ep Stitch in Time were praised by critics for their charming aquatic melodies and for having some of the sharpest songwriting around (Single of the Week) Rip It Up Mag.
In 2003, renowned Sydney producer Tim Whitten (a la Gersey, Art of Fighting, Bluebottle Kiss) heard a copy of the Stitch in Time ep and invited the band to Megaphon studios in Sydney to record some of their new material.
The debut album A Mark on the Pane is considered by many Australian critics to be one of 2004's most beautiful records (Inpress). It has received universal praise for its beautiful melodies, dreamy arrangements and vocals that are virtually out of this world (Baby Sue US 5+/5 stars) and for the sublime sensibilities of Sydney producer Tim Whitten. Brisbanes Time Off magazine recently described A Mark on the Pane as absolutely marvellous 4.5/5 stars.
While A Mark on the Pane has received critical acclaim in Australia, extensive independent airplay (including recent feature album on Perths RTR FM and Adelaide's Three D) and debuted in the AIR charts, it has also garnered much interest internationally. Glowing reviews from the US and Europe have sparked significant interest from the industry and airplay in Europe (on college radio in France and Portugal) and Japan (where it has been named feature album on Shonan Beach FM).
The beauty of 'When We Do Fail Abigail' is difficult to pigeon hole but if anything in tone reflects classic White Album songs like John Lennon's 'Julia' or McCartney's 'Blackbird'(Undercover zine Australia)
"I wouldn't presume to try and convince anyone that the joy that comes with discovering an album like this is a once in a lifetime experience, but it is one of those timeless gems that will be on many personal top 10 lists for many years to come" (Music Works zine UK)
Beautiful melodies, dreamy arrangements, and vocals that are virtually out of this world we have heard few debut albums that rival this 5+/5 stars

Tamas Wells既是團(tuán)名也是其中主唱的名字,這支來自澳洲墨爾本的indie-pop樂團(tuán)最早成立于00年初,當(dāng)時只有Owen Gray (bass, harmonica)及Ben Castle(violin)兩名成員,發(fā)行的第一張EPquot;Hello Jealousyquot;是張帶點政治意味的民謠唱片,創(chuàng)作靈感來自當(dāng)年的“第三世界國家債務(wù)解除運動”,第二年鼓手Nathan Collins的加入帶入了新的創(chuàng)作元素,而接下來緊密的巡回演出,也為Tamas Wells在當(dāng)?shù)貥方绶e累了不少人氣。02年3月和8月分別發(fā)行了兩張廣受好評的EP(quot;Cigarettes, a Tie and a Free Magazinequot;及quot;Stitch In Timequot;),Ben中途退出接著加入了Tamas和Anthony。知名制作人Tim Whitten(曾制作過Gersey, Art of Fighting, Gaslight Radio)在聽過quot;Stitch in Timequot; 之后頗為欣賞,邀請他們來悉尼的Megaphon studios共同錄制新唱片,04年第一張專輯quot;A Mark On The Panequot;曾被評為當(dāng)年最美的唱片之一。
