Jamie Cullum-Catching Tales[2005]

jazz/pop

Catching Tales is the fourth album by Jamie Cullum. It was released in late September 2005 in the United Kingdom and a few weeks later in the United States.

This release follows Twentysomething, Cullum's biggest seller to date. Like that album, Cullum performs some original material as well as some covers and standards. The first single from the album was "Get Your Way", followed by "Mind Trick" later in 2005. In 2006, "Photograph" was released as a single.

Job For A Cowboy - Genesis[2007]

metal/deathcore

 Job For A Cowboy - Doom[2005]

乐队第二张EP,metalblade公司后又再版发行,封面的设计颇有创意,中期的jfac更加接近brutal death metal,如今没有延续其精髓,使得07年新作并无太多亮点.

daniel martin moore - Stray Age(2008)

http://www.myspace.com/danielmartinmoore

You’ve never heard of Daniel Martin Moore, from Cold Spring, Kentucky.  That’s okay.  Before we got his unsolicited demo in January 2007, neither had we.  Luckily, he’d heard of us, and contacted us the way people in Cold Spring still do- he sent us a package, just to see what would happen.  In all honesty, his odds were quite slim, but occasionally we’ll take down that “no solicitation” sign on our door.  And in this case, we’re glad we did.
The first thing you’ll notice about his debut, “Stray Age” is its simplicity.  It’s a folk record, evoking certain feelings (as all good records should), but there’s a gentle approach to its sound and the way Moore’s voice phrases his words.  “Stray Age” was recorded in Los Angeles in three different spurts, the first two sessions taking place in October and December of 2007, then the third in February of 2008.  He even got some people you’ve heard of to help him out.  Joe Chiccarelli (The Shins, U2, The White Stripes) took on co-production, recording and mixing duties.  Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Beck, Tori Amos) played upright bass.  Jesca Hoop lent her voice to “The Old Measure” and “Restoration Sketches.”  And Petra Haden (Bill Frisell, Beck) adds violin to “It’s You,” “The Hour Of Sleep,” and “The Old Measure.”
Those reference points are really just that, though.  Moore is most captivating as a singer, one who doesn’t seem concerned with usual folkie fodder.  If you ask him what his music’s about – a legitimate question – he just politely shrugs his shoulders in a way that says, “that’s up to you to figure out.”  But, the insights in “Stray Age” are not secrets and would never hope to be.  Yet as simply as Daniel Martin Moore thinks of “Stray Age,” it’s rich with understated complexities that take you to places that people like Nick Drake and Mojave 3/Slowdive principle Neil Halstead have been cited as doing.  There’s a soft swing in the vocals reminiscent of Chet Baker.  But the one thing with Moore, that we like to think of as separating him from the pack, is he’s looking forward.  He wants to go places, he wants you to come with him, and we’re finding him right in that moment.

转了一大段洋文，足以说明我对这张唱片的好感，虽然平时甚少听folk，但是有入耳的怎么能轻易放过呢。
