Voxtrot     03/05/2007
今日奇遇
傍晚搭公车回家,偶坐在窗边,照旧塞着耳机,手里一本虹影的《上海魔术师》,看得神智恍惚,偶然抬起头,就瞅到左前位置的女生,正在把手机拿给旁边母亲模样的人看,呃,等等,上面的待机图片——不是hyde么!虽然有点距离,那件衣服那个pose,错不了,犹豫了十秒终于还是开口搭讪,果然是虹饭一枚,还是个队长控^^,也去了上海live入了FC,啪啦啪啦聊了一会儿,下车前留了Q号

接下来是Voxtrot的音乐,多谢小s的推荐
Pop/Indie/Rock

Official Site--Myspace--Lastfm
成员: Ramesh Srivastava (vocals, guitar, electric piano), Jason Chronis (bass), Mitchell Calvert (guitar), Matt Simon (drums), and Jared Van Fleet (keyboards)

"The stuff mixtape dreams are made of." – Pitchfork
"...think 'Sally Cinnamon'-era Stone Roses meets Belle & Sebastian with maybe even a hint of Interpol." –NME
"...even the restroom attendant was rocking out to their catchy pop rock that blends the jangly sweetness of the Lucksmiths with the melodic complexity of that mopier Charming Man. Singer Ramesh Srivastava's on-stage aerobics routine can be dizzying -- bouncy would be an understatement -- but the youthful exuberance of it all proved contagious.” – SPIN.COM

成立于04年的州团,团名"Voxtrot"并没有什么特别意义(Vox是拉丁文,意思是voice)。乐队目前只发过三张EP,就已经拥有一大批粉丝(这点蛮像cold war kids)。因为主音Ramesh在Scotland念书,大家只有暑假和圣诞节才能聚在Austin录歌,05年在自己的厂牌Cult Hero发行了首张EP"Raised by Wolves",06年签到XL/Matador的同门厂牌Playlouder,成员也各自有一些side project。80年代的Jangle pop和悦耳吉它,Voxtrot的曲风常被拿来与the Smiths和Belle & Sebastian比较,其它还有Travis,Pale Saints,Gang of Four,Joy Division及R.E.M.
今年5月即将发行首张专辑,期待ing
