dEUS

小簡介
來自比利時的dEUS樂隊90年代初成軍,于02年解散，04年復(fù)出，其間成員的變更不少，直到現(xiàn)在留有原班人馬的僅為vocal Tom Barman以及drums Jules De Borgher。經(jīng)過了多年于音樂上的試驗，dESU的音樂總有一種飄忽不定的感覺，直到99年發(fā)行的那張[The Ideal Crash]才基本定型。dEUS于歌詞上的造詣是不用多說的，他們還和Radiohead、Tom Waits、Daniel Lanois以及Tricky合作過。他們的另類音樂使得人們更多的關(guān)注比利時的樂隊。
by Jason AnkenyThe first Belgian-based indie act ever to sign to a major international label, the improvisational avant grunge group dEUS was originally comprised of vocalist/guitarist Tom Barman, bassist Stef Kamil Carlens, drummer Julle De Borgher, violinist Klaas Janzoons, and guitarist Rudy Trouvé. Formed in Antwerp in 1991, dEUS began their career as strictly a cover band, but soon began performing new material, honing an irreverent, free-form live show drawing on influences ranging from folk and punk to jazz and prog rock. After issuing a four-track EP titled Zea, dEUS mounted a series of London performances that led to a contract with Island Records. In 1994 the group released its full-length bow, Worst Case Scenario, winning acclaim for the singles Suds and Soda and Via. After announcing plans to produce their own pornographic film, they issued 1995s My Sister, My Clock; however, in the wake of the records release, Carlens exited to focus on his side project, Moondog Jr. Trouvé soon followed suit, channeling his energies into the group Kiss My Jazz; with new guitarist Craig Ward and bassist Danny Cool Rocket Mommens in tow, dEUS returned to the studio to cut 1997s In a Bar, Under the Sea. The Ideal Crash followed in 1999.
