Architecture in Helsinki-Places Like This

places like this album cover

Architecture in Helsinki這張新專輯《Places Like This》，幾乎讓此團成為我的最愛。官網上可以聽到整張專輯，乍聽有點嚇一跳，本來的輕盈快樂調皮民謠風，速度變快了，鼓聲變沉了，少了點輕盈，多了點搖滾，跟之前的兩張風格接近的《Finger Crossed》、《In Case we Die》差別很大。但戴起耳機仔細聽，發現這張專輯儘管跟以前不一樣，卻非常好聽，而且它豐富熱鬧的樂器與人聲，還是非常地AiH，好豐富，好可愛，好快樂。

於是驚嚇變成了驚喜，儘管原來的風格已經很棒很有特色了，他們沒有侷限在那裡，而是創造出了新的曲風，同時也保留了自己的特色。沒聽過AiH的音樂或許不會喜歡這張，它不像前面兩張那麼清新討喜，喜歡他們的也可能不會習慣這樣的轉變。但是很對我的胃口。

Like It Or Not

I’ll tell you anything but not the truth
My Mum thinks she’s in love with you and I’m not
And just to be sure do you wanna ride
Let me tell you something about christmas time when it’s hot

when were cornered
in a bid to scare
I kept you from my reaches
didnt mean to care
what we got
do you like it or not?

I’m changing all your pills to vitamins
You got me eating form your hands
girl we’re locked
Round about 10 with a love tattoo
you left me in yr cell
the things you do
when you’re rot

wa wa wa

when were cornered
in a bid to scare
I kept you from my reaches
didnt mean to care
what we got
do you like it or not?

I’ll tell you anything but not the truth
My Mum thinks she’s in love with you and I’m not
And just to be sure do you wanna ride
Let me tell you something about new york when it’s hot

Enormously Low
No It’s true
There’s never been a knife that cuts me half as deep as you
and wide for you
despite the dreams that others grow
