簡介。。。。。。
SHOCK! HORROR! Fonal record in English language shock! Quick, somebody call the Daily Mail, I think we have a scoop. Sadly, ‘Heartcore’ was released a fair few years ago and this is probably old news, but damn it’s important to us. Their debut album, ‘Heartcore’ introduced Finnish folk/rock/pop act Kiila to the world and set them on their merry journey to, errr, worldwide acclaim. Ish. Recorded by Fonal boss and musician Sami Sänpäkkilä (aka Es) the album sounds something like a cross between prog/folk demons Comus, The BBC Radiophonic Workshop and Captain Beefheart – avoiding the pitfalls which might accompany such an ambitious venture. Although not as accomplished as it’s epic followup, ‘Heartcore’ is still a hugely enjoyable listening experience, being varied and interesting throughout, with two tracks in the middle pointing us closer to Wolf Eyes then Nick Drake… a surprise and a most welcome one I must say. Housed in absolutely gorgeous artwork inked by none other than Jan Anderzen of Kemialliset Ystävät fame this is another release you’re going to want to throw at your ever-expanding Fonal collection.(from Boomkat)

我的碎碎唸。。。。。。評價指數:8.3/10
Kiila的一張英語專輯,2001年發行于Fonal,比上一篇blog那張早好多年。不知道爲什麽,芬蘭folk一用英語演唱,總會讓我產生些排斥的感覺,就像Chamellows的Rat Hearts,而且曲風也變得有些國際化的電子,還有點玩節奏似的嘻皮。好聽還是好聽的,但就是覺得味兒有那麽些不對。也許是我多慮了,也許這張專輯裏Kiila本來就沒有在追求民族化的東西。
去豆瓣上看看。。。。。。
