小2004年Autumn's Grey Solace這隊(duì)美國(guó)Dream-Pop二人組合加盟Projekt廠牌發(fā)表了他倆的第二張專(zhuān)輯Over The Ocean，大概近年沒(méi)有太多這類(lèi)風(fēng)格出塵脫俗、不吃人間煙火的音樂(lè)，故即使Autumn's Grey Solace的聲音談不上有多大新意，感覺(jué)上他們又是另一支「后Cocteau Twins」樂(lè)隊(duì)，但倒有叫人聽(tīng)得有點(diǎn)稱(chēng)心之感。同時(shí)，也再度反映到Projekt向八十年代4AD廠牌追崇之意圖。 Autumn's Grey Solace的二人陣營(yíng)很簡(jiǎn)單，女生Erin Welton負(fù)責(zé)主唱與填詞，而Scott Ferrell是吉他手兼音樂(lè)主腦；前者靚聲飄逸，后者夢(mèng)幻奏樂(lè)，合作起來(lái)總能恰到好處，宛如云頂觀世的一對(duì)。如果說(shuō)七年前他們自資出版的處女作Within The Depths Of A Darkened Forest是記載了其摸索階級(jí)，而2004年的Over The Ocean看到了二人找到該走的音樂(lè)路線，那么Autumn's Grey Solace的第三張專(zhuān)輯Riverine，則標(biāo)志著他倆的聲音已趨向成熟渾圓。無(wú)疑，這次Autumn's Grey Solace的歌曲來(lái)得更見(jiàn)動(dòng)聽(tīng)。Human Shell是一首百分百雋永怡人的漂亮Dream-Pop作品，好比如沐春風(fēng)般美好──今趟Autumn's Grey Solace已不獨(dú)屬于灰色的秋日了，而Riverine正是一張為春天而設(shè)的唱片。更觸動(dòng)心靈，還有Erin在Sorrow Ashes里孤高得令人心碎的演繹；而Falling Sky的飛翔式結(jié)他，可讓聽(tīng)者的情懷也不禁豁出去。今天的Autumn's Grey Solace仍不脫Cocteau Twins的影子，聽(tīng)A Tangle Of Scars和Cold And Empty Constellations，那簡(jiǎn)直時(shí)光倒流至Cocteau的黃金時(shí)代。論驚艷之作，是The Unshakable Demon的中古氣與Gothic底蘊(yùn)；而聽(tīng)著清爽快板的Eclipse和Cloudburst，卻又別有一番情味，奏出好比涼風(fēng)送爽的Dream-Pop妙韻，甚至Inward Bound更好讓我聯(lián)想到All About Eve來(lái)。在Autumn's Grey Solace的音樂(lè)里，Erin的歌聲與Scott的結(jié)他總是互相輝映──在Riverine內(nèi)便嚴(yán)正聲明「No keyboards or synthesizers were used in the making of this recording」，以告訴大家他們的樂(lè)曲全由Scott的結(jié)他編織而成。
