來(lái)自英國(guó)曼城的Dream City Film Club是這樣一支樂(lè)隊(duì):低調(diào),深沉,淡淡的憂(yōu)傷之下裹藏著一顆悲痛至極的心。樂(lè)隊(duì)靈魂Michael Sheehey的嗓音像溫暖的湖面,但他把最寒冷的情緒放在了湖底,表面上他在和風(fēng)相互交談,而在幾米以下的湖底,哭喊的悲痛。失去的都不會(huì)再回來(lái),仿佛預(yù)言般讓人深信了結(jié)局的存在。
幾乎在臺(tái)灣很少聽(tīng)到有人在討論DCFC,但它在歐美被著名的NME雜志以Nick Cave般的一定音樂(lè)風(fēng)格相喻,DCFC成名時(shí)機(jī)指日可待。這個(gè)密碼化身是一個(gè)英國(guó)的低調(diào)樂(lè)團(tuán)[夢(mèng)幻城市電影俱樂(lè)部](Dream City Film Club),以Soho區(qū)一座被燒毀的色情電影院命名,由主唱Michael J.Sheehy、貝斯手Andrew Park、鼓手Laurence Ash三人組成,他們自1995年成立以來(lái)在知名獨(dú)立廠牌Beggars Banquet(以發(fā)行低調(diào)歌德樂(lè)團(tuán)Bauhaus而知名)發(fā)行過(guò)兩張專(zhuān)輯:1997年的首張同名作品[夢(mèng)幻城市電影俱樂(lè)部](Dream City Film Club),1999年[在清晨的冷光中](In the Cold Light of Morning)。首張專(zhuān)輯風(fēng)格陰沉黑暗,就像觀賞大衛(wèi)林區(qū)(David Lynch)電影般,扭曲的聽(tīng)覺(jué)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。睽違四年之久第二張專(zhuān)輯,詭異遠(yuǎn)甚於前者,就像專(zhuān)輯封面一只僵死的鳥(niǎo)兒般,整張專(zhuān)輯的音樂(lè)充滿(mǎn)了歇斯底里卻又冷酷抑制的自虐式呢喃噪音,不帶頹廢的氣息但卻有著強(qiáng)迫聽(tīng)者的挑釁,騷動(dòng)神經(jīng)處的混亂。在"Nerveshot"一曲中,Sheehy粗嘎破碎的聲音喊著"I wake up this morning, and my nerves are shut pieces",吉他與歌聲交疊為音墻壓來(lái),這種融合grung與post-punk的樂(lè)風(fēng)使其更添其暴冽成分。"Billy Chic"中吉他耐人尋味的和弦進(jìn)行與性愛(ài)喘息聲般的媚惑聲響,"Fuck it"中,男女人聲於迷幻的樂(lè)聲交替貫穿,懸吊的吉他音線在背後游走,徹底呈現(xiàn)了DCFC的魔力與陰質(zhì)本性。聆聽(tīng)DCFC,身邊會(huì)彌漫於低迷氣氛中,對(duì)於毀滅傾向的人而言,實(shí)在是危險(xiǎn)的死亡助力。
Dream City Film Club came together during the spring and summer of early 1995. I had been playing the North London gig circuit as a solo singer/songwriter for about 2 or 3 years when I met Laurence Ash and Alex Vald at the Bull & Gate in Kentish Town towards the end of 1994. They were promoting gigs there and must have seen something in my ragged drunken performances. Around April ‘95, Laurence’s band, Furlined, had split up, so he was at a bit of a loose end. We decided to play together informally at first. After a couple of weeks or so we invited Alex to play guitar. Alex was by no means a virtuoso, but we were struck by his unique approach.
During this time I had watched the demise of an excellent if inconsistent band named Breed. My brother urged an unemployed bass player to check out one of my solo performances. Enter Andrew Park. Whilst seeing some potential in our work, Mr. Park was worried by our shortcomings and was difficult to coax into the band at first. Eventually, we set to work arranging songs I had written such as “Porno Paradiso”, “When I Sleep”, “Vague”, “Do Myself Harm”, “Night of Nights”, etc. Eventually we started writing together: “Pissboy”, “If I Die I Die”, “Filth Dealer”. By July 1995, we had enough material to do a gig. I believe it was 31st July. We took the stage at the Bull & Gate for the first time under the moniker of Dream City Film Club
