★入选BBC「Sound Of 2013」、英国卫报「New Bands Of The Day」的电气三人组 ★专辑傲视全美独立榜冠军+另类榜No.3+摇滚榜No.5+流行榜TOP12、英国金榜第9名 ★媒体好评推崇：Clash(9/10)、Pitchfork(8.5/10)、NME(8/10)、Spin(8/10)、AP(4.5/5)、AMG(4/5)、滚石杂志(4/5) 入列BBC「Sound Of 2013」第5席、英国卫报「New Bands Of The Day」，拿下美国德州独立音乐与媒体艺术节「SXSW/South By Southwest」非美国区音乐人Inaugural Grulke Prize潜力大奖殊荣，来自英国的电气新贵Chvrches自成一格的轻俏跃动音符，经由长相清秀、声线甜美的女主唱Lauren Mayberry诠释下，让他们的作品显得极具亲和力并格外讨喜。 一直没让自己闲着的Iain Cook（合成器/吉他/贝斯/合声），自1998年开始，曾陆续加入Aereogramme和The Unwinding Hours两组独立乐团，趁着专辑宣传期的空档，也参与电影及电视的配乐谱写；身兼合成器/取样/合声的Martin Doherty，受邀担任Post Punk团队The Twilight Sad的现场客席乐手。这两位从大学就结识的音乐才子，常聚在一起交换音乐心得，并且即兴玩些创作。从小就会钢琴和打鼓的女主唱Lauren，15-22岁期间，在当地的Boyfriend/Girlfriend和Blue Sky Archives乐团担任鼓手。正好Iain有机会替Blue Sky Archives制作EP，进而认识Lauren，当Iain与Martin的创作亟需一名主唱诠释，Lauren接下了替他们录制Demo带的工作，三人培养出难得的默契，也让Chvrches得以成军。团名Chvrches也就是Churches的意思，特别把U改为古罗马文字V(因古罗马文的U和V是同一个字母)，没有任何宗教意味，只是纯粹觉得发音很酷！ 由Chvrches全员制作/谱写的首张大碟【The Bones Of What You Believe】，特别请到美国摇滚界大师Rich Costey（*Muse、Bruce Springsteen、Deftones）负责混音，傲视全美独立榜冠军+另类榜No.3+摇滚榜No.5+流行榜TOP12、英国金榜第9名。完全融化在Synthpop轻巧节拍的“The Mother We Share”，获选为美国iTunes的「当周最佳单曲」、美国哈芬登邮报「2012年顶尖52首歌曲」名单；对分手爱人展开复仇行动的“Gun”，借着顺畅曲调指引下，瓦解人们内心的最后一道防护层；“We Sink”则入选电玩「国际足盟大赛14」重点衬乐；“Lies”在2012年率先入选NME杂志「最佳单曲」第28席；旧作“Recover”特别经过重新混音，层次更加鲜明并捕捉如梦似幻的情境。 Glasgow electro-pop trio Chvrches have announced details of their debut LP, The Bones of What You Believe. This follows the band’s Recover EP, and will be released on September 23 in the U.K. via Virgin/Goodbye Records, and September 24 in North America via Glassnote. The group consists of Lauren Mayberry (main vocals, occasionally synths), Iain Cook (synths, vocals) and Martin Doherty (synths, vocals). Buzzed-about Scottish synth-pop outfit Chvrches recently shared a song called "Gun" from their upcoming debut album, and now they've confirmed the details of the forthcoming collection. It's called The Bones of What You Believe, and it will be out in North America on September 24 via Glassnote. The UK release will come one day earlier through Virgin/Goodbye. Along with announcing the album, the band have shared a music video for "Gun." The glitchy, kaleidoscopic clip is a fitting accompaniment for the fast-moving, hook-filled pop banger and can be watched below. "Gun" will be released on 12-inch pink vinyl through Virgin/Goodbye in the UK at some point in the near future. Their prior single, "The Mother We Share," will come out in North America on June 18.
