专辑简介
Remy Zero这支乐队的中文名叫“雷米零度线合唱团”，“Remy Zero是由一对兄弟Cinjun Tate(主唱)、Shelby Tate(吉他手)和另外三个好友组成来自阿拉巴马州的另类摇滚团。很难正确界定Remy Zero的音乐类型，应该说他们是个有趣的乐团，每张专辑，每一首歌都可以找到不同的前辈的影子，96年的同名专辑走的是像Sonic Youth 、My Bloody Valentine类Post-Punk路线，98年的「Villa Elaine」有Radiohead的味道，挺好听的，所以Radiohead和Manic Street Preachers到美国开演唱会都找他们暖场。”
Remy Zero总让人回想起一些星级乐队，比如Radiohead，U2，The Smiths，据说他们还受到Radiohead的表扬。连他们自己在Geffen的唱片文案上也大言不惭的说他们是美国的Radiohead。可爱死了，不过他们受Grunge影响颇深而形成的粗放型嗓音和音乐，怎么能得Radiohead细腻唯美之神韵呢？The Golden Hum据说是他们到目前最好的一张专辑。
Kicking things off with the building title track, Remy Zero makes quite the first impression on The Golden Hum. The momentum keeps up through "Glorious #1," the fast and furious second track, then slows down into a catchy U2-style rocker, "Out/In." That is probably the best point of reference for this band, as many of their songs are similar to Achtung Baby-era U2. It is that brand of moody pop/rock that carries the fivesome through the album, but it is also what keeps the album from truly being spectacular. The resemblance to the Irish foursome is amazing; the ghost of Bono haunts these tracks like a specter, always reminding you that what you are listening to is pretty good, but not the real thing. To be fair to the band, the music is nothing to be ashamed of; it is all performed very well and it is even catchy. But there is nothing here that has not been done before, and as competent as they might be, that still does not make the album any more listenable. Fans of the band will probably enjoy this very much, but casual listeners may have a hard time looking past the averageness of the whole affair.
