From: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=124638124226440 Coming to Korea before touring w/Wolf Parade in Canada... 캐나다에서 Wolf Parade와 투어를 마치고 내한... ++++++++++++++++ M O O O L S ++++++++++++ +++++++ Weather Sketch Modified now available on 7e.p. ++++++ Formed in 1997, underground rock-trio moools has built their reputation as one of the most influential acts today in Tokyo's indie scene. Comparisons have been drawn as a cross between Talking Heads and The Pixies and while the band has garnered a fierce following among its fans, they've become equally sought to share stages by touring bands. The three piece has built up a staggering resume of live shows, including making appearances alongside Deerhoof, Quasi, The Microphones, Sunset Rubdown, The Folk Implosion, Love as Laughter, The Magic Magicians, and +/- among others. The band maintains strong ties to to the Northwest independent music scene, including K Records (label to tour mate and close friend Phil Elverum/Mount Eerie). Mount Eerie/The Microphones has even covered mools' “Koneko Calendar,” featured on their live album and Pitchfork has gone so far as to cite "Bonchi No Natsu" (Yoyo A Go Go 1999) from a list of "twelve songs that made Phil cry." moools' tightly arranged twelve-track fifth LP, Weather Sketch Modified (2010), showcases the bands impressive musical range. Tracks like "Iru Iranai" feature Yasuaki Sakai's loose, slightly off-kilter vocals alongside expansive guitar riffs accented by muted strings. "Konaiyo" bears heavy markings of alt-country/jazz influences while the tremendously abrasive, yet still pop-oriented punk number "CRC" are furthermore challenged by the disparate workings of the epic jam "Kage mo Katachi"; a track that features a flurry of keys, banjo, and sing-a-long chorus. Weather Sketch Modified delivers a catalogue of sound that is as imaginative and substantial as the band's expansive career. Following their exclusive appearance in Korea, the three-piece embark transpacific to headline an extensive North American summer tour. ___________________________________________________ 1997 년에 결성한 언더그라운드 락 트리오 moools는 오늘날 도쿄 인디신에서 가장 영향력 있는 밴드로 알려져 있다. 사람들은 이들의 음악이Talking Heads와 The Pixies의 합일점이라고 하기도 한다. 팬들로부터 열정적인 추종을 얻음과 동시에 그들은 Deerhoof, Quasi, The Microphones, Sunset Rubdown, The Folk Implosion, Love as Laughter, The Magic Magicians와 함께 공연을 해 왔다. 밴드는 K Records(밴드와 절친한 사이인 Mount Eerie의 Phil Elverum의)를 비롯 북서부의 인디씬과 밀접하게 교류하기도 한다. Mount Eerie/The Microphones는 moools의 라이브 앨범에 수록되어 있는 ‘Koneko Calendar’를 커버하기도 했고, Pitchfork는 “Phil Elverum을 울게 한 12개의곡들”에 "Bonchi No Natsu" (Yoyo A Go Go 1999)를 소개하기도 했다. 밴드는 12개 트랙으로 탄탄히 짜여진 그들의 다섯 번째 LP Weather Sketch Modified (2010)를 내놓는다. 각각의 곡들은 밴드의 인상적인 음악적인음악적 포괄성을 보여준다. Yasuaki Sakai의 느슨하고 약간은 병약하게들리는 보컬과 풍부한 기타 리프에 얹힌 절제된 기타현음이 인상적인 "Iru Iranai"와 같은 트랙에서부터, “Koinaiyo”와 같이 재즈/얼터 컨츄리의 강한 영향력이 느껴지는 곡이 있는가 하면 "CRC"에서 보여주는 팝 지향적인 펑크 넘버에서 굉장히 다른 “Kage Mo Karachi”와 같이 건반, 반조와 풍부한 코러스가 연출해내는 연주곡도 수록 되어 있다. 앨범은 밴드의 화려한 경력만큼이나 풍부한 상상력과 탄탄함을 보여주는 사운드의 총체를 선사한다. 밴드는 곧 있을 한국에서의 단독공연 이후에 북미 지역으로 여름 투어를 떠날 예정이다.
