Miss Malone Can Sing.

Picture from mishapes

吉娜馬隆，一個童星出身的女演員。你可能看過，但是不一定有印象。她有演過主角，但不是什麼鉅片；演過的鉅片又偏偏多是配角。(譬如說，在接觸未來中飾演茱蒂佛斯特的幼年時期，或是親親小媽中飾演茱莉亞羅柏茲的繼女、蘇珊莎蘭登的親生女兒。)
今天一不小心發現了她演唱的照片，便順勢找找相關消息。結果這是以她為名的搖滾樂團 叫 "吉娜馬隆和她的血跡" 。(或許配上她myspace的網址，又稱"吉娜馬隆和她的野生動物之血跡"。)目前是獨立樂團(?)的狀態，吉娜馬隆擔任主唱，除了一般樂團固有編制外，還有提琴手以及鍵盤手。歌曲的感覺算是emo嗎?就"New Year Come"來說，唱腔非常emo；"Lunchbox and memory"裡又有Yeah Yeah Yeahs，Karen O的影子。在有限且無絕對意義的分類裡，他們將自己分類在alternative中，中文翻"另類"。雖然不是什麼大事，但是一個演員突然跑出來唱歌就是引我注意。
聽聽看 或... 看mv

Jena Malone, an actress since she was a child, had played young Eleanor Arroway( starred by Judie Forster) in movie "Contact", a step-daughter of Julia Roberts and daughter of Susan Sarandon in movie "Stepmom".
It was amazing when I saw her picture today, which she was singing and I went look for related news. So what happened is that Jena Malone have a rock band named "Jena Malone and Her Bloodstains".
Anyway, an inde rock band with keyboard and violin, sings in an EMO way in the song "new year come" and sounds like Karen O of Yeah Yeah Yeahs in the song "Lunchbox & Memory".
It just easy to get my attention when a movie star sings.

Discovered...

新發現

Even if it's 3am and half in the morning which the time is too late for sleeping, but I just can not wait to tell you what I just found, despite it may be an old shits for some, and it IS an old label I guess.( According to Wikipedia, it was founded in 1998.)

Southern Lord - An American record label name refers to Satan, published black, death metal records, alternative black & death metals and experimental.

Differences between Southern Lord and other metal labels are two.First, Southern Lord bands plays black and death metals in alternative way, they are more like using music to create a creepy environment( Recent bands mostly, or just call it experimental), and second, each album has a great cover design.

雖然說已經早上三點半，( 事實上，打到這邊已經是早上四點了) 要睡覺已經是很晚的事，不過就是等不及要來說剛剛發現的一個新東西，儘管有些人早就知道了，而且它的確是個老牌子。(根據維基百科, 這個廠牌於1998年成立。)

Southern Lord - 以撒旦為名的美國唱片廠牌，專營黑死金屬以及另類黑死，和以上的實驗音樂。

Southern Lord和其他金屬廠牌不同有二。一是旗下的樂隊音樂走向不太一樣，雖然也是黑死金屬，但是偏另類，營造詭譎氛圍( 特別是最近幾支團)；二是專輯封面設計很有感覺。
