The Warlocks
小简介
一个奇怪的合作:美国洛杉矶九人Drone Rock/Garage Rock乐队The Warlocks,竟计划在其第二张专辑里找来Andrew Weatherall这位英国DJ兼制作人参与——奇就奇在近年Weatherall已甚少现身于别人的唱片里。
现在为Two Lone Swordsmen成员的Weatherall,他是英国跳舞音乐界一个甚具性格的DJ兼制作人,要是The Warlocks真的能够得到他出手跨刀,定必成为一时佳话。
早在Indie-Dance年代,Weatherall曾为Happy Mondays(Hallelujah)、James(Come Home)、Flowered Up(Weekender)等乐队炮制过经典的Remixes;他监制过的专辑更寥寥可数,只有Primal Scream的Screamadeliea和One Dove的Morning Dove White两张而已。后来他希望专注于其乐队The Sabres Of Paradise的发展而淡出幕后工作,在Sabres解散后他则跟Keith Tenniswood组成Two Lone Swordsmen。
Indeed, it's been a long strange trip for Warlocks leader Bobby Hecksher since his band played their first gig on July 4th, 1998. Hecksher, who moved to California from Florida in the late '80s, formed his first group shortly after arriving. Charles Brown Superstar issued two singles and two full-length albums before calling it a day. Hecksher was later invited to play on Beck's Stereo Pathetic Soul Manure (Flipside), then -- along with James Ambrose -- formed Magic Pacer, who waxed two albums for Win Records before Hecksher splintered off to do his own thing. Over the course of several years and many personnel changes, Hecksher eventually formed his eight-piece band, calling them the Warlocks, a moniker that had been previously used by early incarnations of both the Velvet Underground and the Grateful Dead. While no one will mistake them for a Deadhead band, the Warlocks' earliest recordings do often sound like they're channeling a fever-soaked Velvet Underground (circa White Light, White Heat), while drawing further influence from space rock, prog, and Krautrock bands (including Neu! and Hawkwind). The Warlocks subsequently emerged as leading lights on the Los Angeles music scene in 1999-2000, and in October 2000 Hecksher signed a two-album production deal with America's oldest indie label, the Burbank-based Bomp!, who issued their self-titled debut EP in early 2001. Hecksher has also produced a 16mm short for "Cocaine Blues," which features cameo appearances by Hecksher and friends (including Rivers Cuomo of Weezer).
