专辑简介
His Name Is Alive论资力和实力都是和我一开始提到的那些乐队平起平坐的,只不过HNIA在国内的影响力远远不及他们。制作人Warren Defever, 主唱Karin Oliver, 鼓手Damian Lang三人早在1989年的时候便成立了His Name Is Alive,并用卡带将他们的歌曲录制下来。后来这盘卡带被Ivo Watts-Russell听到,也就是4AD的创始人之一,对他们诡异的音乐颇感兴趣,便将HNIA正式签入4AD。对His Name Is Alive音乐风格的定位,其实是件很困难的事。他们绝对算得上是那个音乐大杂烩年代的先驱,音乐中融合了Alternative Pop/ Rock、Dream-Pop、Experimental-Rock、Indie-Rock等多重风格。
在His Name Is Alive的第一张专辑Livonia中,Karin Oliver幽魂般的嗓音配以Loop、采样以及吉他冲击波,营造了一个有关鬼魂、复生以及梦境的臆想世界。1992年底,HNIA推出了第二张专辑Home Is in Your Head,乐队的音乐视野明显拓宽了不少。新的主唱Denise James, Karen Neal, Melissa Elliott,以及吉他手Jymn Auge的加入为HNIA的音乐注入了新鲜血液。这张23首歌的专辑,包罗了民谣叙事诗、电子、吉他风暴、抽象的实验等多重元素。在93年中,HMIA又发行了两张专辑。King of Sweet,一张集合了乐队一些未发表作品和Demo的限量版专辑;Mouth by Mouth,一张在乐队原有实验、梦幻曲风上加入更多流行元素的专辑,这成为了HNIA有史以来最为多样化也最为大众化的一张作品。此时,新鼓手Trey Many加入乐队,取代了Lang。
