Recorded over the last six months in Bergen, with periodic visits from ex-patriot Erlend - Riot contains more complex arrangements tWith You', 'Know How,' 'Love Is No Big Truth' or first single 'Misread', every track sounds like an old friend coming home to you.
"It's quite style schizophrenic," adds Eirik "We're each inspired by different things so it can be a little confusing, but that seems to be a modern phenomenon, people don't know what genre to put themselves in."
"I'm looking forward to everyone saying it's not as good as the first album," laughs Erlend, "It's funny because two of the songs are from 1998, so it's us, covering us from five years ago," he adds.
The Kings were joined in the studio by hotly tipped Canadian songstress Feist, who appears on two of the albums twelve tracks, the bossa-fuelled 'Know How' where she assists Eirik, and the album's closing track 'The Build Up'- where she duets with Erlend in what is one of the Kings' most stark and beautifully emotive tracks, a rare moment captured in time. Both were big fans of her much-fabled "Red Demos" and she melds perfectly amidst them, bringing an air of added suspense and emotion and of course her majestic voice. "Her voice is amazing", gushes Erlend, "I'm very proud of the 'Build Up', for the first time ever we managed to do something spontaneous, Feist wrote the words an hour before she sung them, and it doesn't sound like anything else we've ever done."
So there you have it. Kings Of Convenience - 2004. A therapist and a superstar singing DJ, an odd couple, but still the best (old) new acoustic band in the world. 'Riot On An Empty Street,' forms their very own republic of two, principality of Eirik and Erlend. A great place to visit again and again.

墙壁雪白,然而颜色退却

- 公路(反抗作为一种生活方式) 对于这样一支乐队,你总是会带着那种复杂的期待情绪。你会希望他们不断出新专辑,又害怕他们的新歌会失去最初的味道,因为那是一种太容易破碎的精致。 两年前我和一个女孩一起听完了这张专辑,我们骑单车,在一个金色的秋天畅想我们的Cayman Islands,心情一样的轻快,像无忧无虑的孩子。公路沿着弯弯曲曲的小河,黄叶漫天...... (7回应)

- 超级企鹅 来自北欧挪威的The Kings of Convenience(便利之王)简直是 Simon & Garfunkel的再世(我没有咒Simon他们死的意思~),同样的两人组合,同样的吉他伴奏,当然,同样的净彻心扉的男声二重唱。 本人认为homesick是专辑Riot on an Empty Street里最无敌的一首...... (5回应)

适合一个人在异国他乡听的碟,nothing but homesick
-
- 大头 第一次听是在两年前,莫斯科冬天的深夜和凌晨,一边挂在网上漫不经心的游走,一边反复replay,他们的音频悬在一个舒服的高度,沙沙的和声,简单的吉他,淡而忧伤的词,一切都恰到好处。 从来都没有去探求什么,就像从来不知道他们从哪里来,只是这样一张简简单单的碟,连封面的脸都是侧过去的。但好的歌者往往就应该这样,在一个不...... (4回应)

心中有花儿在阳光下绽放

- boks(愔愔然遁夫) 仿佛经历了一个阴沉的冬季,仿佛刚越过一段泥泞的路程,天晴了,午前的阳光温柔的拨开清晨欲雨的阴霾,伸了个懒腰,--真是惬意啊 damien rice的《O》优雅而忧郁,似在初春挽别无雪阴寒的冬;这个呢?冰开了,每天总有一段阑珊徘徊的温暖经过,在空空的街上,拨着蠢蠢徜徉的琴弦 吉他的感觉真好,耳畔送来阵阵花的清......

misread 跳动

- lvy~(新疆)(我会怀念,我会勇敢) misread这个月一直存在我的MP3里,每次听到那跳跃的音符,手指总是忍不住地跳动起来,就算走的热闹的街上,手指也会情不自禁地跟着音乐跳动。......
