艺人介绍
这是一只没有吉他的乐队。 没有吉他能摇滚吗？很多唯吉他摇滚论者显然会提出这样的问题，摇滚乐不仅仅是吉他，贝司和鼓的合成品，Morphine（吗啡）乐队就用不同的方式诠释了这一风格。 Morphine成立于1990年，发起人是歌手兼贝司手马克·桑德曼(Mark Sandman) (所谓的贝司有时是两根贝司弦，有时是一根贝司弦加两根吉他弦——桑德曼称之为tritar)和中低音萨克斯手达纳·科利(Dana Colley 他的一张嘴同时控制一把中音和一把低音萨克斯，也许在中国的杂技团找份工作更适合他这种被桑德曼称为“双萨克斯”的技巧恐也许它更适合的表演场合是在各个国家的艺术节上。)他们找来鼓手杰罗米在乐队成立的第二年就在独立厂牌“精确失真” 推出了处女作《Good》。 此时鼓手退出，于是桑德曼的战友比利·康威(Billy Conway)成了乐队的新鼓手，新专辑《Cure For Pain》(治疗痛苦)诞生。 这张专辑获好评如潮，像《滚石》、《人民》这样的主流媒体杂志也开始对他们做正面的报道。 1995年，乐队推出了《Yes》， 在1997年发行了《Like Swimming》。这张唱片是在大唱片公司“梦工厂”旗下推出的。该专辑改变了乐队以前由低沉至爆发的的套路，总体平和了许多，同年推出了《B-Sides And Otherwise》。 1999年的7月3日 马克·桑德曼在意大利罗马的一次演出中被突如其来的心脏病夺去了生命，无比完美的结束的死在了舞台上，享年46岁。 by Stephen Thomas Erlewine Morphine is a rarity — bluesy, bare-bones rock & roll without any guitars. Instead of guitar riffs, the trio relies on sliding two-string basslines, raucous saxophones, and wry, ironically detached vocals. During the mid-90s, Morphine gained a sizable cult following in America, primarily due to good word of mouth, heavy college airplay, and positive reviews. Morphine was formed in 1990 by bassist/vocalist Mark Sandman, who had previously played with the bluesy alternative rock band Treat Her Right, and Dana Colley (tenor and baritone saxophone), a former member of the local Boston group Three Colors. Sandman and Colley added drummer Jerome Dupree to complete the lineup. The group released its debut album, Good, on the independent Accurate/Distortion label in 1991; it was reissued on Rykodisc Records in 1992. Good received substantial airplay on American college radio stations, as well as favorable reviews in alternative publications across the country. After the release of Good, Dupree left the band and was replaced by Billy Conway, who had previously played with Sandman in Treat Her Right. The positive reception to Good set the stage for 1993s Cure for Pain, which received good reviews from a variety of music and mainstream publications upon its spring release. Morphine supported Cure for Pain with an extensive American and European tour that lasted throughout 1994, which helped the album sell over 300,000 copies — an impressive feat for an independent release. In 1995, Morphine released their third album, Yes, which also received favorable reviews and helped the band sustain its large cult following. The success of Cure for Pain and Yes also attracted the attention of major record labels, and in late 1996, Dreamworks bought out the majority share of Morphines contract from Rykodisc. Like Swimming, the groups debut for Dreamworks, was released in the spring of 1997 to generally favorable reviews, yet it failed to break Morphine out of cult status. On July 3, 1999, Sandman collapsed on-stage during a performance in Rome, dying of a heart attack at the age of 47. The Night was posthumously issued early the following year and the live disc Bootleg Detroit appeared in fall 2000.
