Product Description

From Amazon.com

Boston-via-Ireland rockers Rubyhorse prove themselves to be no one-trick pony on their major-label debut, Rise. The quintet's strength lies with uplifting rock decorated with catchy choruses and soaring melodies. "Sparkle" is as infectious as its name implies, rife with walls of rippling guitar and bass chime. "Happy in the Sunshine" embraces towering riffs and an Oasis-esque roar, while "Into the Lavender" has a Verve-like grasp of layered solos and controlled chaos. Other tracks showcase the band's melodicism and instrumentation--"The First of the Year" is a gentle lullaby driven by dreamy flute loops, while the majestic "Punchdrunk" contains quivering slide guitar from the late George Harrison himself. Yet spots of keyboard-driven grooves are just as infectious and temper Rubyhorse's earnestness--"Evergreen" and "Teenage Distraction" especially have a seductive electronic bite. Indeed, Rubyhorse's good-natured, upbeat content is neither trite nor clich, and their combination of intricate riffs and dance-floor style is seamless. Straightforward rock without being purely straightforward, the self-assured Rise is definitely an album worthy of more than a few spins. --Annie Zaleski

5.0 out of 5 stars きれいなメロディを聞いて元気になりたい時に, 2003/3/22
ボストンをベースに活動しているアイルランド出身の5人組、メジャーデビュー盤。インディーズ時代の "How Far Have You Come" は、ジョージ・ハリスンのゲスト参加 (スライドギター) で一部では話題になってました。その Punchdrunk は今回のアルバムにも入ってます。ジョージが曲を気に入ってスライドギターを演奏してくれた、というエピソードが物語るとおりの名曲。

全体的にメロウで美しいメロディが光る楽曲群ですが、個人的には躍動感のある Evergreen がおすすめ。
大部分の曲が前作 "How Far~" に収録済みですが、これはすでに廃盤だそうです。Into The Lavender は大幅にアレンジが変更されてますが、ほかのダブる曲について大きな違いはありませんでした。なお、前作に未収録なのは Sparkle, Bitter, Live Through This の3曲。

おすすめアルバムです。
