We Lost The Sea

來自悉尼的六人樂隊We Lost The Sea無疑是當(dāng)下最優(yōu)秀的器樂搖滾樂團(tuán)之一，他們的音樂融合了氛圍、前衛(wèi)搖滾、后搖等多種元素，在宏大氣度與暗色調(diào)旋律的籠罩下，如同波瀾壯闊的史詩畫卷，磅礴而震撼。他們曾與Rosetta 、This Will Destroy You 等大牌樂隊一同巡演，是澳大利亞以及國際上公認(rèn)的杰出現(xiàn)場樂隊。
 
We Lost The Sea組建于2007年，從2010年發(fā)布首張專輯《Crimea》開始，風(fēng)格由最初的后金屬轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)楹髶u，并可謂是相當(dāng)成功、完美的轉(zhuǎn)型。We Lost The Sea成軍十年以來共推出3張專輯，一度占領(lǐng)各大音樂網(wǎng)站版面，眾多媒體、樂評家一直對其投以重點關(guān)注，更是Bandcamp上絕對暢銷的樂隊之一，在國內(nèi)音樂平臺也享有很高的呼聲。
We Lost The Sea are a progressive post-rock band from Sydney Australia.
Crushing guitar noise with post-rock atmospherics ...and melody from a large, dimly lit space.
Formed in 2007, they released their first record entitled ‘Crimea’ - engineered and mixed by Magnus Lindberg in mid 2010.
Late last year they released their second record 'The Quietest Place on Earth' through Bird's Robe Records, to acclaim from both fans and critics alike at home and internationally, making best album lists of 2012 above bands like Converge and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and best sellers on Bandcamp.
At the start of 2012, there was a slight change of line up and this breathed fresh air into the band. They kicked off the second half of 2012 with a bang, supporting Rosetta (US) and playing a handful of highly successful local shows including their sold out album launch. Lochlan Watt from Triple j's THE RACKET, put We Lost The Sea's performance supporting Rosetta as the number one Australian performance of the year in the Drum Media writers poll.
In March 2013, their close friend and vocalist of the band, Chris Torpy, sadly took his own life aged only 24. This, naturally, was devastating for the band and the rest of 2013 was a rough ride, playing only 2 shows. One was supporting This Will Destroy You at the Annandale, which was a special and emotional show for band, friends and fans alike, being the first show without Chris since the formation of the band. The other supporting The Red Paintings at the HiFi in Sydney. Both shows had great reviews and it was a powerful performance so soon after the tragedy.
2014 sees the band back on form and working on a third LP. This record will be a slight shift away from their old dynamic, not so unintentional as maturing in sound, and the most personally experimental so far. However, it will still sound like We Lost The Sea, they assured.
Expect some big things from this 6 piece.
What's Critics have said:
"(we Lost the sea) are capable of producing music that is on-par — if not better than — the vast majority of what is offered internationally. I only hope a day will come where bands such as We Lost the Sea get the attention they serve on the world stage" - Metalobsession.net
"We Lost The Sea are a reckoning force, and a breath of fresh air when everyone all, but thought a genre was dead. It wasn’t it was just being reinvented down under." - blackcountryrock.org (US)
"The compostitions are thoughtful, the performances faultless. This all adds up to an aural journey packed with emotion, tension, drifting highs and intense, crushing lows that treads an unexpected path" - Thisisnotascene.com
"The relatively simple production does give the impression that We Lost The Sea are tremendous live and I bet they are. I hope these guys continue to push themselves creatively and have a long career as a band. I know I am excited to hear what they do next." - Echoesanddust.com
"We Lost the Sea have made themselves a great album with “The Quietest Place on Earth” and one that I will surely listen to over and over again. It’s an album of contrast with clean mellow passages flowing together with sludgy, heavy arrangements. It’s music that truly deserves the listener’s attention and if you are ready and willing you will be greatly rewarded with some killer music." - Midwinterfires.com
