小简介

Starlet 星卉乐团,与Acid House Kings、Club 8齐名之瑞典Swedish-Pop四人乐团。

97年发表首张专辑「From the One You Left Behind」,而前作「Stay On My Side」更获美国著名另类音乐杂志Spin专属网站选为全年最佳专辑第15名。

2000年以第二张专辑Stay On My Side青涩腼腆的风格,不仅成功地掳获各地的Indie-Pop爱好者,成为继Acid House King、Club 8后又一重要的瑞典乐团名字,其魅力就连美国知名音乐杂志Spin,也在专属网站上列入当年最佳专辑第15名,而他们还是很年轻的四个大男孩。

"Songs about loss and love", was how Sweden's Starlet described their debut album »From the One You Left Behind«. And here they go again. Still in their respective twenties, still not married, and still not legally divorced. But hey, who said those are the necessary criteria for severe heartache in the blue, cold, post-nighttime hours?

Recognized as part of the »Åhus Scene« that was designated by the Swedish pop press as "the Mecca of Swedish wimp pop", Starlet comes from the same region as Club 8, Acid House Kings, Pop Race, and the Leslies. And, lead vocalist Jonas Farm's hometown, Malmoe, has been chosen as »the pop-town of year 2000« by the nation's Swedish Radio.

Jonas Farm describes his contribution to the album's songwriting this way: "When I learned to play the guitar, about 1992, I tried really hard to make songs that sounded like Popsicles' »Laquer«, but it didn't work at all, and I found out that it was a stupid idea trying to sound like another band. Then I got every Beatles-album and made the same mistake. Now I just follow a feeling when I write a song, and subconsciously fragments of my influences of the time trickles through, mixing with me and the sound of me.

Most lyricists are unable to express such sentiments so perfectly. The fact that Starlet does so in a second language is noteworthy. The songs contain no irony whatsoever, and are suitable for domestic use, radio use, soirees and car driving, alone or together with friends.
