※ 引述《vextra (FUCK)》之銘言: : http://www.dotmusic.com/reviews/Albums/July2001/reviews21037.asp pitchfork Rating: 8.6...不過還是不想聽 :P While it certainly doesn't live up to the adventurousness of its predecessors, Hot Shots II is a pretty damned fine album, and easily surpasses previous outings in the realm of accessibility. It also does away with the bizarre rap numbers and twelve-minute psych pastiches that put so many eager listeners off in the first place. To me, though, that thrown-together sound was one of the things that made the Beta Band's music so exciting, hinting at the possibility of wacky revolutions and violent takeovers by silly string-armed bandits. Rinsing and repeating is working well for Stephen Mason, but it would no doubt serve him well to work up a more turbulent, frothy lather next time. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.csie.ntu.edu.tw) ◆ From: walkabouts.m7.ntu.edu.tw
