EIGHT LEGS,英国新晋POST-ROCK乐队.强劲的节奏与锋利的歌词交接起身产生可怕的音乐.

其THESE GREY DAY为DIOR HOMME 06A/W RUNWAY的BACK GROUND MUSIC.

TEXT FROM INTERNET:
Young rock romantics take their turn in the spotlight

Despite being either 18 (singer and guitarist Sam Jolly, drummer Jack Garside) or 19 (bassist Adam Neil and guitarist Jack Wharton), theres a melancholy to Eight Legs that evokes experience rather than innocence. Songs like Climb the Walls and These Grey Days speak of parties that ended in drunken disaster, text message arguments between estranged young couples, and even that perennial rock and roll topic, boredom. Yet somehow the music lifts the mundane teenage neuroses into something strangely grand, beautiful, and universal. Thats why Eight Legs found itself sound-tracking the Dior Homme Winter 06 show, despite being unsigned and having previously done nothing more high-profile than support minor U.K. rock heroes the Cribs. After being recommended the music by a model he cast on the street in London, Hedi Slimane fell under the spell of Eight Legs chiming, classically English romantic rock. The Dior show saw the two and a half minute These Grey Days reworked into a fifteen-minute elegy, drawing out a mood that perfectly suited the monochrome, aristocratic clothes. The gig pictured here, which took place two weeks later, saw Eight Legs, which is from Stratford-Upon-Avon, play in the much more conventional setting of a dive-y indie rock club. But the sense of otherworldly beauty remainedeven in a sweatbox 20 feet below Oxford Street.

Chris Ulyatt在某日漫步伦敦街头时，让驶过的Hedi Slimane一见钟情，而成为Dior Homme 06/07 Winter Collections的代言人。在一次闲谈中，正为下次runway配乐而踌躇的Hedi Slimane问及同为摇滚真粉的Chris有何建议，当Chris提议the Smiths却因其过于知名而遭否决时，他不再迟疑，向这位设计大师举荐了自己的四位好友——当时名为“superheroes”的可怜乐队。于是，便有了今天的eight legs。

个人感觉音乐其实并不特别出众，倒是头顶dior homme的光环为其增色不少。所谓机遇决定命运，感慨感慨。

Chris Ulyatt，18岁的美少年，啧啧啧啧~~

Hedi Slmiane太好色老！最后骂一句......

我最赞the rakes，英国扭曲小朋，专集也相当不俗
