艺人介绍

Alexisonfire,来自加拿大安大略省的5人硬核乐队,于2001年组建。   “Watch Out!” 和“ Crisis”是两张非常成功的专辑,2007年12月为宣传“Crisis”乐队进行了加拿大巡演。贝斯手Pettit以前在一个重金属乐队“Condemning Salemn”,Green则是“Helicon Blue”的主唱兼吉他手,而MacNeil 和Steele则在一个朋克乐队“Plan9”中。这几个乐队几乎同时解散,(其余成员坚持做了下来并取得了成功)这成为了他们相遇的契机。之后他们招进新成员鼓手JesseIngelevics,正式成立了Alexisonfire。

Alexisonfire is a post-hardcore combo formed in Ontario, Canada, in 2001. Vocalist George Pettit, guitarist/vocalists Dallas Green and Wade MacNeil, bassist Steele, and drummer Jesse Ingelevics debuted in 2002 with a self-titled effort for the Toronto-based Distort imprint. The album did very well in Canada, garnering a lot of support for the band from MuchMusic video network. That exposure led to a distribution deal with the respected American hardcore and punk label Equal Vision, which then issued Alexisonfire's sophomore effort in June 2004. Watch Out! was even more ambitious than its predecessor, mixing moments of melodic grace with the wiry explosiveness that Alex had already trademarked. The next year, Ingelevics exited the group to be replaced by ex-Jersey drummer Jordan Hastings, as a split with fellow countrymen Moneen appeared on Vagrant that November. Green also worked on some acoustic solo material, released in 2005 under the moniker City and Colour. Alexisonfire had become an official part of Vagrant's roster by summer 2006, performing on their Warped Tour side stage and releasing explosive full-length number three, Crisis, that August. The guys then hit up the Reading and Leeds festivals in the U.K. prior to embarking on an extensive two-month fall tour of Canada.
