小简介

Saosin是来是加洲的Post-hardcore乐团，成立于2003年，是由灵魂Anthony Green在其他各个乐队(比如Open Hand)中东挖西挖组成的。2003年的ＥＰ《Translating the Name》发行，随后乐队还没来的及巡演就出现了大变动，包括bass、drum等离队，直到3个月后Saosin才有了第一次舞台经验，他们同Boys Night Out 和 Anatomy of a Ghost进行夏季的巡演，其良好的台风被乐评家认为同另一New York Hardcore乐队Glassjaw可以带来相同的感情宣泄。2004年，乐队灵魂Anthony Green因为私人原因离开了Saosin另组乐队Circa Survive，追求他自己的“emo/post-hardcore”去了，但Saosin却没有停滞，Cove Reber加入乐队接过Anthony Green的班成为乐队新主唱，在05年的3年份参加Taste of Chaos tour时与唱片公司Capitol签约，并在8月份发行了同名ＥＰ，经过1年的努力，乐队不断丰富自己的经历终于在2006年9年份在制作人Howard Benson帮助下发行了自己的同名正式的专辑。

乐队的名字非常有意思，取自中文“小心”的音译，Anthony Green在访谈中谈到了名字来自中文”small heart”，有趣的是在他的理解里中文的“小心”是指“小心爱”(as in love cautiously)。

California-based Saosin burst onto the post-hardcore scene in March 2003 with their explosive screamo-tinged debut EP, Translating the Name, on Death Do Us Part. For the recording, the band was comprised of vocalist Anthony Green, former Slayer guitar tech and drummer Pat McGrath, guitarist/vocalist Justin Shekoski (ex-As Hope Dies), and former Open Hand members bassist Zach Kennedy and guitarist/vocalist Beau Burchell. The band's name comes from a Chinese proverb that means "small heart," as in love cautiously. Shortly after the EP's completion, Kennedy exited (going on to join Ashlee Simpson's band) to be replaced by Chris Sorenson, and since McGrath had been enlisted solely to play drums on the album, Saosin weren't solidified until that July with the addition of permanent drummer Alex Rodriguez (also formerly of Open Hand).

Even though Translating had been out since March, the band didn't make its on-stage debut until June. Their powerful live performance and heavy Internet presence were coupled with high praise for their EP (comparing them to the emotional catharsis of Glassjaw), cultivating an impressive underground following. The guys hit the road nationwide that summer with Boys Night Out and Anatomy of a Ghost. Green parted ways with the band in February 2004 for personal reasons, later going on to front the emo/post-hardcore outfit Circa Survive. The other bandmembers pressed on without him, however, and though they had yet to find a permanent replacement, stayed true to their Warped Tour obligation with Story of the Year's Phil Sneed taking the mike. By the summer's end, Cove Reber had become the band's new singer. Saosin spent time on winter's Taste of Chaos tour before hooking up with Capitol Records in March 2005. After numerous compilation appearances, a self-titled EP of demos and live cuts appeared that August; summer was spent on co-headlining dates with Anberlin. Saosin continued work on their eponymous full-length debut with Howard Benson, finally releasing the long-awaited disc in September 2006. Plenty of touring followed well into the next year, including dates with bands like Senses Fail, Bleeding Through, A Static Lullaby, and Poison the Well. In March 2008, Saosin released Come Close, a live CD/DVD.
