Vulture Street专辑介绍
在当代走红的乐队中，澳大利亚的"粉末指头"（Powderfinger）乐队是最具有代表性的。乐队在1990年建立，由5个小伙子组成，核心人物是主唱并负责词曲创作的伯纳德·范宁，嗓音真挚而具有独特的韧性。《Vulture Street》是他们第四张专辑，于2003年发行。"粉末指头"的音乐具有沉稳的节奏和冷静的旋律，主唱的歌喉主导性非常强，时而激昂有力、时而温和阴郁的特质很容易抓住听者的心。从他们的音乐中可以听出金属朋克乐对乐队的影响，而一些温情曼妙的乐曲又展现出典型的澳洲民谣风味来。作品中表现了社会底层普通人的困苦处境和失落心绪、产业工人无休止的劳作、资本所有者的为富不仁，平凡的演绎中饱含了无尽的辛酸和尖刻的批判。
The opening notes of this album have a great rock flavor to them, recalling Primal Scream circa Rocks, or early Rolling Stones on the playful "Rockin' Rocks." Led by the guitars of Bernard Fanning and Ian Haug, the chorus seems to stall a bit in its jerky arrangement, but settles back into a fine groove. This continues on the tight and impressive "(Baby I've Got You) On My Mind" which sounds very close to the Stereophonics rehashing old-school rock for a contemporary feeling. A blues opening on "Since You've Been Gone" leads into an uplifting gospel-tinged effort, ambling along beautifully in the heartfelt vein of the Black Crowes or Wide Mouth Mason. And the ragged nature to this album is its greatest selling point, providing and exposing far more soul than previous efforts. "Love Your Way" and its acoustic arrangement showcases the vocals quite well without venturing into a singer/songwriter idea, veering into a rock-blues blueprint. What is most surprising is the consistency of the record, especially the adorable "Sunsets," which could be Powderfinger's equivalent to the Verve's Lucky Man. The pop-rock quotient is abundant throughout, particularly during the Tom Petty-esque toe-tapper "Don't Panic." Perhaps the only run-of-the-mill performance is the mid-tempo, guitar crunchy "Roll Right by You." And even then it's able to surpass the high bar they've created thus far. "How Far Have We Really Come?" might be mistaken for Chris Robinson's solo album — a reflective and swaying Southern rock effort. By the time "A Song Called Everything" appears, the album should have given you more than a sense of Southern satisfaction. An outstanding piece of work!
