U2 2009新專輯預告

2008年底在網路上獲悉
U2在2009年初將發表新作品
而且很用力的去作
當然那都是官方的說詞
在曾經是大樂迷的我來說
仍然期待

對於U2近幾年的作品已不及以往的喜愛
但畢竟這支來自愛爾蘭的搖滾勁旅
在80~90在我心目中一直是前三名的搖滾樂團
所以 今晚就寢前到U2官網閒逛
果不其然
新專輯的專輯名稱 封面 曲序...皆以昭告天下

將要發行的版本眾多(5種) 合作皆為老夥伴 大家慢慢看

Anton & I



















對於
Anton Corbijn或許陌生 但提的U2的The Joshua Tree(約書亞樹)想必大家對於那冷峻滄涼的唱面封面不會陌生 這位身高頗高的荷蘭人籍攝影師 替搖滾流行樂界拍下不少作品 不管是人像或是專輯封面 甚至他付予了一張偉大的搖滾專輯一個的創新的名字(音樂543有寫 不多贅述) 就是上面所提的的U2 The Joshua Tree(1987) 2001年他的攝影作品來到台灣 在敦南誠品辦過展覽

習慣會在買了一張唱片時用最快的速度拆掉膠膜 不知是聽音樂的風格樂風 收藏的專輯的攝影多出自他手 也對Anton眼理的世界有興趣 前年(2005)生日時好友送了我一本U2 & I的攝影作品輯 (U2&I官網)不管是質量或重量 紀錄自1982-2004他與U2的工作友情 真是紮紮實實的一本鉅作

Anton
除了平面的影像攝影 對於拍攝MV或演唱會紀錄也涉足其中 誠品應該還找的到這部作品Director's Series Vol. 6 - Work of Director Anton Corbijn (2005)這張收藏了他拍攝MV的部份

Joy Division的Atmosphere 低調風格 令人動容




昨天(5/23)在坎城的友人線上跟我聊 說晚一點要去看一部電影 跟搖滾樂有關叫Control 腦海想到Anton開拍Joy Division的主唱 Ian Curtis 電影的事 沒想到已完成了 還在電影的聖堂坎城播映 而我在遙遠的這端打起鍵盤突然飛快了起來 並激動跟他說一定要把Control 這部電影買下來啊 說真的他們家發行這類電影才合適啊 期待 如有進一步的消息 會在追蹤報導 敬待消息...
