Little Man Tate

专辑介绍：

Never mind yer Arctic Blondes or yer Milburn Monkeys, Sheffield's Little Man Tate are proper Lords in a post-post-industrial wasteland where the birds will let you cop a feel for a spam fritter and the alcopops pour like bile from the local BNP candidate.

你还在听小猴吗?过时了!来自Sheffield的Little Man Tate才是极后工业化废墟上的王.在这片令人恶心的土地上,他们是精力过剩的年轻人和激进政党的代言人.

Jon Windle's guttersnipe tales of serial shaggers and scenester bashing will gather most of the plaudits here but guitarist Maz Marriot deserves special mention for his surprisingly expressive range, tackling everything from crunching, Who-esque powerchords to sighing lyricism a la Johnny Marr with aplomb.

主唱Jon Windle具有底层风格的碎碎念与不顾一切的闯劲会赢得一大群拥蹙,不过Maz Marriot也因为其具有惊人表现力的吉他而应得到特别关注.从急风暴雨般拥有The Who神韵的强力和弦到诗一样宁静的旋律他无所不能.

The gormlessly-titled 'House Party At Boothy's' manages the nifty trick of sounding like 'Digsy's Dinner' and not being totally annoying, with a na-na-naa refrain that resembles Sham 69 murdering 'Hey Jude' at chucking out time.

'House Party At Boothy's'有个笨头笨脑的名字,不过它却成功的汲取了Digsy's Dinner的精华,它有"na-na-naa"这样的副歌,却不至于像当年Sham 69唱毁了'Hey Jude'一般令人生厌.
