由 Menton J. Matthews、Avis 和 Sarah Hubbard 幾位核心成員搭檔組成的 Sunday Munich,在音樂上綜合了歌特的妖嬈和Trip-Hop的深邃暗黑特點,男女雙聲部的唱腔凄美幽怨,節(jié)拍編排上也異常沉重緩慢。雖然樂隊名字里有“慕尼黑”,但他們確實是來自美國,而不是德國。
Avis 在談到自己的音樂作品時,說道:“是音樂救贖了我們的靈魂,但我們不想依靠這個成為富裕的搖滾明星,也不想用自己的音樂去改變社會,我們只是想通過音樂這個渠道來表達自己的想法,并可以讓更多的人有機會聽到,僅此而已。”這段話讓人深思,以他們出色的音樂才華和富有感染力的表現(xiàn),完全有能力可以簽約一家大唱片公司,但他們并沒有這么做。并且他們也不想通過音樂改變什么,在 Sunday Munich 的作品中,強加在音樂之上的東西都土崩瓦解,音樂對于他們來說就純粹是音樂而已。
“Lo-Fi風(fēng)格的緩拍跟隨著孤獨的鋼琴聲步伐慢慢走來,Sarah模糊不清的聲音游走在氣勢宏大的Trip-Hop陰暗節(jié)拍中,時而自閉地呢喃、時而幽怨地吟唱。這首開場曲名為《Prozac》,它無情地掀開了紗布,腐爛蒼白的氣息已經(jīng)開始漂浮在空氣里。Matthews曖昧的小提琴、凄美的Sarah人聲、沉重的節(jié)拍混合交織在一起,苦澀的《Smallest Tragedy》重重地將我擊倒在地。”
“作為一個身處快節(jié)奏生活大城市里的樂隊,Sunday Munich 卻依然保留了一個獨立樂隊的優(yōu)秀品質(zhì)和冷靜細致對待音樂的態(tài)度。他們不是一個簡單的歌特樂隊,更不是一個被狹窄類型所束縛的概念化團體,他們用自己的音樂說話,當(dāng)你想選擇一種自溺的方式,Sunday Munich 會是你最好的選擇?!?br />Sunday Munich is band formed by Sarah Hubbard-vocals and lyrics, and Avis-cello, piano, guitar, loops and programming. Sunday Munich is the most original and darkly beautiful project we ever heard. Their music is and amalgamation of many different kinds of music. Its ethereal but not so gossamer that it floats away. It is grounded and raw with pain and emotion. Scratchily old record loops, heart wrenching vocals, creeping fear is part of Sunday Munich's music. The first album they did was called "PNEUMA" which is a representation of situations in your life when you take all the hatred and despair the world has dumped on you, all the puts-down and lies, the violated childhood memories and demolished hopes of a loving-couple happy ending, and then to take it all in your hands and tear it apart into ugly red blots and jagged shards into their ugly smug faces, twisted and dark with your righteous anger, but turned beautiful now, too, by your own art?? Sarah sings, Avis constructs an alternately hypnotic and fiercely chaotic musical setting around her, starting with cello, keyboard, and then jumping from gentle guitar to powering dub beats from throbbing bass to buzzing static. Heavy on the electronics, but also on human emotion.. Sunday Munich is a goth pop group for melancholy triphop listeners. Their album "PNEUMA", merges gothic female vocals, at times like the cranes, and other times deeper and more articulated, with Portishead instrumentation, like the heavenly grooves samplers. Their second release "VINCULUM" is a more light album. Drum loops and sampling meets ethereal vocals. A mixture between trip hop and cocteau twins. Vinculum is a hypnotic collage of pulses, beats, and hunting female depressive voices. Sunday Munich, mixture between trip hop, classical, and drum n bass, and noise genres with a reflective female vocalist Portishead resemblances are obvious. Sunday Munich is certainly not a goth band, instead they are two piece, vocally strong act, not afraid to use both time to master instrumentation and cutting edge technology.
