艺人介绍
在苏格兰西岸，有一个濒临大西洋的小岛名叫“莫尔”，在其中的一个小镇上住着几百户居民和成群的绵羊。小镇中有个热爱唱歌的青年名叫Colin McIntyre，他从小就在舅舅乐队的熏陶下接触音乐，后来便开始自己拿起吉他创作歌曲。后来Colin McIntyre考入了格拉斯哥的大学学习政治学，他开始为当地的报纸撰写专栏，这位对历史学政治学有着浓厚兴趣的年轻人后来以"莫尔历史会社"为代号发表自己的作品。虽然后来乐队中慢慢的有固定乐手的加入，但是由于乐队的形态依旧是以Colin McIntyre的吉他为主创的Indie Pop加新迷幻风格乐队，所以人们还是喜欢把MHS看作是Colin McIntyre一个人的天下。
充满了政治色彩和理想国愿望的队名“莫尔历史会社”，而音乐却是唯美至极的英式乡间摇滚小调儿。2001年的首张专辑《Loss》中的新迷幻器乐和带有实验性的创作意图，尤其是那些Chamber Pop情怀的清新小品歌曲，都给人留下了极为深刻的印象。两年之后的专辑《Us》保持了这种感觉，并且愈加成熟的Mull Historical Society开始了大范围的演出活动。起初是乐队是为Travis、The Strokes、Tindersticks这样的乐队做暖场演出，后来随着第二张专辑的发行，Mull Historical Society开始自己的世界范围的巡回表演。Mull Historical Society现场的表演是由Colin McIntyre一个人在舞台上吉他弹唱，另外一面则由投影仪播放事先做好的“莫尔历史会社”素材的剪接片段，从而达到向观众展示这一政治概念的目的。

Scotland's Mull Historical Society is singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Colin MacIntyre. He arrived onto the British music scene in 2000. Although the name is confusing MHS has always been a pseudo name for the solo artist MacIntyre, who hails from the Hebridean island of Mull. At first signed to U.K. independent Tugboat, MacIntyre got to work on cranking out some of his extensive bank of backlogged songs. The warmly received Barcode Bypass single was released later in the year, named Debut Single of the Year by NME. The follow-up single, I Tried, was released the next March. Demonstrating the musician's bizarre sense of humor, the A-side's subject matter was described as "boy meets sheep." Animal Cannabus followed a few months later on Rough Trade, predating the full-length debut Loss, which was issued on Blanco y Negro in October. The next album, Us, was released in 2003. Having dropped the Mull Historical Society tag, MacIntyre's 3rd album, This is Hope was released on B-Unique Records in July 2004.
