简介

作为少数现在仍旧受欢迎的80年代 Pop Metal 乐队,Bon Jovi 在伏蛰了五年后终于推出的新专辑《Crush》。新专辑是乐队对80年代音乐风格的一次回归,依旧保持了 Bon Jovi 一贯坚持的健康、流行的曲风,歌曲的可听性很强,而且在音量上显然比上张风格忧郁的专辑《These Days》重了许多。同时还在新专辑中适度的加入些电子气息以使跟上潮流,当然,歌曲的冲击力与震撼力是无法与80年代全盛时期相提并论了,到底他们都已年近不惑了。专辑中主打歌曲是 Bon jovi 1986年冠军曲 “Livin’ on A prayer“ 的后续之作 “It's My Life“ ,"Just Older"(可以理解为是仅仅年纪大了的意思)则是 Bon Jovi 现在心情的正式写照。《Crush》在商业上的成绩不错,刚一推出就打上 Billboard 专辑榜的Top 9,在欧洲则很快的卖出了白金销量,专辑的世界销量达 700 多万张,让那些如今最走红的乐队也自叹不如。凭借着出色的《Crush》,Bon Jovi将自己的演艺带入了新的世纪。 by Steve Huey Even if it was classified as pop-metal, Bon Jovi never really was much of a metal band, relying on big, catchy melodies and not guitar riffs to make their songs memorable. That's why, in 2000, they're able to make an album like Crush, which strays far enough into pop/rock to actually stand a chance of getting airplay (which it did, with the hit lead single "It's My Life"). The guitar crunch on the uptempo numbers keeps Bon Jovi from becoming a full-fledged pop/rock band, but in addition to the typical hard rockers, there are nods to heartland rock, Bryan Adams-style adult contemporary balladry ("Thank You for Loving Me"), the Beatles (the surprisingly effective "Say It Isn't So"), and even British glam à la T. Rex or David Bowie ("Captain Crash and the Beauty Queen From Mars"). Occasionally, it sounds like the band is attempting to cover as many bases as possible for multi-format appeal, but for the most part, the variety -- coupled with the consistently polished songcraft -- makes for a surprisingly listenable album. The production is a little more electronic-tinged, but not obtrusively high-tech, so the band doesn't come off as desperate to sound contemporary. Aside from a couple of missteps (the soppy, aforementioned "Thank You for Loving Me" and the mawkish posturing of "Save the World"), Crush is a solidly crafted mainstream rock record that's much better than most might expect. Even if Crush is more measured than Bon Jovi's early work, "Just Older" sums up the band's acceptance of their status nicely: "The skin I'm in is all right with me/It's not old, just older."
