专辑简介
,W??_|ix's second record, "The Driver is Dead" is a shivering collection of moving lullabies, precious longings, and stripped down pop complete with contemplative guitars, gentle bass, atmospheric pump organ and low key percussion seasoned with the heartfelt sadness violin and the sound of a passing ambulance. never ceasing to mesmerize, "The Driver is Dead" is the perfect soundtrack for a road trip through the frozen icy blue paradise of the northern hemispheric regions that has crystalized in the form of the retro ultra-hipsters Kings of Convenience and the smoke filled rock of Madrugada. Ai Phoenix's simple melodies and song structures are endlessly rewarding, bouyed by twinkling guitars, droning harmonium, sobbing slide and skin tingling chord progressions. singer Mona Mork's voice has an urgency like a whispered warning in your ear. her subdued, low-key vocals (which are sung entirely in English) demand attention as she recounts a nightmare of environmental catastrophe in "Wishinglot" and pays tribute to the wordless perceptual wonders of the interplay between "Snow and Light" in the artic polar regions.
