艺人介绍

Engineers于2003年在伦敦成立, 由四人组成.成立之初, 成员之一的主唱Simon Phipps的一席话仿佛就表明了他们的决心, 也暗显他们的不平凡之处: “我们是不同的, 我们的歌不会和The White Stripes相同, 也不会和Coldplay类似, 准确的说我们不和任何人或者乐队相同, 这不是我们故意这样, 这只是我们要走下去的路.” 他同时说到, 他们相信歌曲的本质会比风格重要太多.

Engineers are a British dream pop-rock band, composed of Simon Phipps (vocals/guitars), Mark Peters (vocals/guitars/bass), Dan MacBean (guitars/keyboards), and Andrew Sweeney (drums).

Engineers formed in London in 2003. The band's sound is often described as a mixture of psychedelia, shoegazing and post-rock, though they themselves claim their influences range from The Cocteau Twins to Curtis Mayfield[citation needed]. Sweeney has remarked that "We've always said if more people started taking acid we'd clean up."

They were signed to the Echo record label, and the band recorded and released the Folly EP in September 2004. The EP featured the singles "Come in Out of the Rain" and "Forgiveness" (which the band would re-record for their debut album), as well as a cover of Tim Hardin's "If I Were a Carpenter." Their eponymous debut album followed in March 2005, preceded by the top 50 single "Forgiveness" in February. Later in 2005, they recorded a version of Tim Buckley's "Song to the Siren" for the 2005 tribute album Dream Brother: The Songs of Tim and Jeff Buckley.
