老 炮们时隔八年来的录音室专辑。完全可以媲美乐队史上任何一部作品。事实证明这样的国宝级骨灰级遗产级以及叉叉级乐队，还能不托大不轻率地只求量多，并像他 们的riff一样严谨负责任的轻易憋住不出手则已且一旦出手便保证精致。二十多年前，他们唱出"for those about to rock, we salute you"的时候我还没出生，我想以后他们真正老去的时候，人们会把这句话回赠给这四个老年人，以及在与他们同在的Bon Scott.心怀崇敬的向他们salute.
2. The Cure - 4:13 Dream - 2008
在 这张专辑正式发行之前，已经有若干EP浮出水面，我草草听过以后就都丢在一旁没去管它，一两首歌这样的篇幅是无法涵盖一张专辑的，特别是The Cure。回头看看他们的历史，发行专辑的速度从最初一年一张，两三年一张到现在的四年一张，这是否是在告诉人们她已经老了？可这张专辑华丽的音乐和充满 情欲的歌词文本告诉人们，和往常一样，The Cure从来没被任何潮流和历史规律左右过，Robert Smith发福的体型对他的创作能力和嗓音丝毫没有影响，甚至，细心的你会发现这张专辑的封套和曲目都异同寻常的充满荷尔蒙和春夏气息。据Robert Smith自己说，原本乐队录制了33首歌，计划以双CD的篇幅出版，后来这个想法被放弃，就成了我们现在所能听到的这张4：13 Dream.那么下一张会更阴暗？
专辑13首歌，我最喜欢这首Switch
Sometime it seems
I stopped being myself
And without a word
Turned into somebody else
Full of wishes wants dreams
And desires
For a life
Of conceit and deceit
And repeat and rewrite
Not sure who I was
Before this me and I changed
But I know this me now
Is not really the same…
Friends are as strangers
And strangers as friends
And I feel like I’m wired in a why
Yeah my friends are as strangers
And strangers as friends
And I feel like I’m lost in a lie
And every day my world gets slower
And colder and smaller
And older and lower
And every day
My treat gets closer to trick
Yeah every day my world gets slower
And colder and smaller
And older and lower
And I’m tired of being alone with myself
And I’m tired of being with anyone else
Yeah I’m tired…
Like I’m sick
None of my favourite things
Are quite right
To the mirror man
Screaming at me
In the spite of another
False start
Dirty worn out and used
Up and down
To the ground
Disavowed
So confused
All made up in the belief
That me is the same
As the eyes in the glass
But I see my eyes change…
Friends are as strangers
And strangers as friends
And I feel like I’m wired in a why
Yeah my friends are as strangers
And strangers as friends
And I feel like I’m lost in a lie
And every night my world gets quicker
And lighter and shorter
And tighter and slicker
And every night
My truth gets closer to dare
Yeah every night my world gets quicker
And lighter and shorter
And tighter and slicker
And I’m sick of being alone with myself
And I’m sick of being with anyone else
Yeah I’m sick of being alone with myself
And I’m sick of being with anyone else
Yeah I’m sick…
Like I’m tired?
Like I’m scared…
