详细介绍:
Perhaps the most exciting rock band in the UK right now, Wolf Alice prove they%27re ready for the summer festival season with their third album—the follow-up to the London four-piece%27s Mercury Prize-winning Visions of a Life. Right off, they let you know with The Beach and its slow build that swells and crashes like, well, storm waves on the beach. This isn%27t surf rock—more a show of the unpredictable and overwhelming elements—but it%27s as evocative as they come, positively waning at the end. A similar trick is used on Delicious Things, a gentle shuffle that breaks wide open into a glorious expanse and heavenly chorus. Singer Ellie Rowsell sings the verses with a sneaky little melody (hints of early Lily Allen here) and slightly hushed delivery, like she%27s gleefully speaking into the phone with her hand covering her mouth—both to hide her smile and keep a secret. I%27m in the Hollywood Hills … if you%27re up popping pills you know I won%27t say no, she sings, her delightful British pronunciation of Los Angeleees making the place sound like Mecca. Elsewhere, she takes no shit: Don%27t call me mad/ There%27s a difference, I%27m angry/ And your choice to call me cute has offended me, she spits against a bottom-heavy groove. Call it a resistance to how, still, today, female musicians are being pigeonholed. Play the Greatest Hits finds her using a bratty playground chant to keep up with the rumbling bass, speeding guitar and drums—the whole irresistible thing sounding like the wheels could come off at any second. (If this song were a car, flames would be shooting out the tailpipe.) There are other enchanting surprises. The catchy, hypnotic Safe from Heartbreak is almost ABBA-like, while No Hard Feelings plays a gentle, campfire melody. Feeling Myself starts off comedown-slow, then turns majestic, and Rowsell draws out the verses of How Can I Make It OK?” like honey dripping from one syllable to the next, before switching to a crisp staccato for the chorus. And power ballad The Last Man on Earth is a stunner. Rowsell has said the lyrics are about the arrogance of humans, and her words cut like a hot knife: “And every book you take and you dust from the shelf / Has lines between lines between lines / That you read about yourself … You were the first person here and the last man on earth / But does a light shine on you?
