小简介
Lullacry在芬兰是一个真正的特例,他们的音乐是全新的,在当前的音乐领域,他们是贴有彪悍的重型音乐标签的乐队之一。 回到乐队早期,当时他们叫Coarse,当时他们发行了一张DEMO专辑Downwards,并有机会在芬兰的"Suomi Finland Perkele" 音乐节上露面。乐队真正发生改变的是当小部分成员有变动的时候,他们试听签约新的歌手,女歌手Tanya的嗓音在所有试听的令人厌烦的男歌手中令人惊讶!显然,Tanya签约乐队,他们也将乐队的名字改为Lullacry。
1998年秋天,Lullacry发行了他们的第一张DEMO专辑“Weeper's Aeon”(哭泣者的永世),接着,在年末他们马上着手准备录制CD唱片“ Sweet Desire”。
乐队新的女主唱Tanya、新鼓手Jukka Outinen和贝司手Heavy与乐队的创立人Sami Vauhkonen 和 Sauli Kivilahti(两个都是吉他手)融合得很好。这为Lullacry 作为一支彪悍的现场乐队,和The Gathering乐队一起在诸如Tuska Metal Fest 和 Nummirock Festival等的音乐活动中赢得了自己的名声,乐队也得到了芬兰许多主流的音乐杂志极高的评价!
1999年,Lullacry发行了他们的完整的处女专辑“ Sweet Desire”,专辑成了Spinefarm Records 公司卖得最好的专辑之一。2000年他们创作了一张双CD专辑"Millenniumliitto",突出的是,乐队的五个人坚持不懈的在芬兰各种电视节目里表演引起了几个国家的电台和报纸以及周刊杂志的极大兴趣。
2000年末,Lullacry签约“Spinefarm Records”公司,首先的成绩体现在专辑“Be My God ”上。特定的11首歌具有芬兰式的歌特重型摇滚先锋效应,在歌曲里面你可以找到“HIM”、“Sentenced”等乐队的影子,不过,在作品里面你可以听到Tanya尽情演绎的、清新的唯美女声!“Be My God”在相当长的时间里在你的耳际余音缭绕,让Lullacry 在所有摇滚音乐爱好者脑海里留下深深的印象。
Lullacry高兴地宣布,他们找到一位女歌手以替代他们过去的女歌手。碰巧的是尽管拼法不一样,这个歌手和Tanya同名。新歌手Tanja 证明自己比前辈更适合乐队主唱这个位置,她需要显示自己的才华和能力带给乐队下一步的事业.
Lullacry are a melodic, female-fronted hard rock outfit from Finland whose music, while occasionally borrowing from goth, remains firmly planted in the realm of pop metal. The earliest incarnation of the band appeared under the name Coarse in the mid- to late '90s; that lineup released a demo called Downwards, and was featured on the Suomi Finland Perkele compilation album. After several lineup changes, the group hired lead vocalist Tanya, whose singing style — a somewhat edgy but ultimately mainstream pop approach — helped the band define its musical direction further and led to its new name, Lullacry. They recorded their first demo, Weeper's Aeon, under the new moniker in fall of 1998, and followed that quickly with the promotional CD recordings Sweet Desire and Alone the following year. Lullacry's reputation as a live act strengthened around this time, thanks to supporting gigs for the Gathering and high profile appearances at Tuska Metal Fest and Nummirock Festival, which also helped to earn the group some positive reviews in many mainstream music magazines. Lullacry recorded its debut full-length, Sweet Desire, for Heart, Trust, and Respect Records, and released it in late 1999. The title track of the album appeared on the double CD compilation Millenniumliitto, a best-selling release from Finnish label Spinefarm Records. Lullacry spent the year 2000, performing on various Finnish TV shows, as well as attracting interest from several national radio stations and daily/weekly magazines. By the end of the year, the group, whose lineup now consisted of lead vocalist Tanya, Sami (guitar), Sauli (guitar), Heavy (bass), and Jukka (drums), signed a deal with Spinefarm Records. They recorded and released their album Be My God, which was also picked up by Century Media Records, in 2001.
