艺人介绍
STEPPENWOLF，一支早衰的硬摇滚乐队，曾经在60年代末和70年代初的美国辉煌一时，现在早已不为人知了，不过他们留下的两首名曲，Born To Be Wild和Magic Carpet Ride足以使他们在摇滚世界成为不朽的传奇。
在Heavy Metal Thunder（重金属惊雷）一书中，STEPPENWOLF被视为一支重金属乐队，但他们的音乐风格超越了简单的失真节奏，而是一种融合了大量布鲁斯和灵歌的硬摇滚，而且音乐中透露出一种对政治的敏感。“我们试图在音乐中反映出当时所发生的事情”，乐队主唱John Kay这样说，“我们把这叫做‘理智的叛逆’。”STEPPENWOLF在1968年到他们第一次解散的1972年间是具有巨大影响的乐队，在排行榜的前 40名中通常是少不了他们的。
Led by John Kay (born Joachim Krauledat, April 12, 1944), Steppenwolfs blazing biker anthem Born to Be Wild roared out of speakers everywhere in the fiery summer of 1968, John Kays threatening rasp sounding a mesmerizing call to arms to the counterculture movement rapidly sprouting up nationwide. German immigrant Kay got his professional start in a bluesy Toronto band called Sparrow, recording for Columbia in 1966. After Sparrow disbanded, Kay relocated to the West Coast and formed Steppenwolf, named after the Herman Hesse novel. Born to Be Wild, their third single on ABC-Dunhill, was immortalized on the soundtrack of Dennis Hoppers underground film classic Easy Rider. The songs reference to heavy metal thunder finally gave an assignable name to an emerging genre. Steppenwolfs second monster hit that year, the psychedelic Magic Carpet Ride, and the follow-ups Rock Me, Move Over, and Hey Lawdy Mama further established the bands credibility on the hard-rock circuit. By the early 70s, Steppenwolf ran out of steam and disbanded. Kay continued to record solo, as other members put together ersatz versions of the band for touring purposes. During the mid 80s Kay re-formed his own version of Steppenwolf, grinding out his hits (and some new songs) at oldies shows. Nevertheless, theyll be remembered for generations to come for creating one of the ultimate gasngo rock anthems of all time.
