The All-American Rejects | zh

全美反对战线

　　来自美国俄克拉荷马州的All-American Rejects乐队组建于1999年。乐队成员包括Tyson Ritter（主唱/贝斯手）、Nick Wheeler（吉他手）、Mike Kennerty（吉他手）和Chris Gaylor（鼓手）。其中Mike Kennerty和Chris Gaylor直到2002年才加盟进来。
　　乐队在2003年发行了他们的首张同名专辑 The All-American Rejects ，朗朗上口的歌词，精彩的吉他和solo丝毫没让乐迷失望。专辑里的 Swing Swing 还获得了2003年MTV音乐录影带最佳新人提名。第二张专辑 Move Along 于2005年发行。在第二张专辑里，他们延续了第一张同名专辑power-rock的风格。乐队最突出的优点是对节奏优秀的操控力，使原本42分钟长的专辑，听起来却像21分钟。
　　The All-American Rejects，Nick Wheeler想出了乐队名字中的All-American，因为他们都是美国人，TysonRitter想出了Rejects。乐队在90年代末期组建，歌手Ritter和吉他手Nick Wheeler是在高中时就在一次派对上认识的成立于1999年，那时ritter是21岁；吉他手，写歌人Nick Wheeler是23岁他们从远在俄克拉荷马州的Stillwarter跋涉到了纽约，录制他们的第一张唱片（销售成绩平平）他们只带了不足一千块钱的盘缠，但是带着一本写满歌的笔记本，怀揣着一个伟大的摇滚梦想，开车穿过内陆腹地，到达纽约。Ritter说：我觉得那样的一次经历简直是一部电影，我和Nick带着我们所有的圣诞节收到的压岁钱，就那么开着破车去了纽约，这对从Stillwater来的孩子来说，这不仅仅是一次历险。
　　在25岁的吉他手Mike Kennerty和26岁的鼓手Chris Gaylor的第一张单曲Swing Swing获得"每周流行唱片排行冠军后，Ritter和Wheeler他们接着加入了进来，四人开始进行世界巡演。 Swing Swing 这首单曲最初由俄亥俄州的独立厂牌Doghouse Records于October 2002发行，接着由大厂牌DreamWorks Records梦工厂唱片于February 2003再次出版发行。乐队在2003年发行了他们的首张同名专辑 The All-American Rejects ，朗朗上口的歌词，精彩的吉他和solo丝毫没让乐迷失望。专辑里的 Swing Swing 获得了2003年MTV音乐录影带最佳新人提名。
　　LevisSpace评论说，第一次亮相表现还不错，里面不乏好歌，并为第2张的腾飞做了个不错的踮脚石。
　　Move Along 发行时间：2005年07月12日
　　包括 Move Along 这首歌，Ritter和Wheeler花了10个月的时间在他们佛罗里达，达斯汀的临时住处（Ritter住在海滩，Wheeler他的干净的家庭工作室）进行创作。Ritter说我用Brian Wilson(是吉他别理解错了）进行写歌，在那，当你双脚站在沙子里，吉他放在大腿上，我感觉我真的就在海滩上。第二张专辑 Move Along 005年发行。在第二张专辑里，他们延续了第一张同名专辑power-rock的风格。 Move Along 让乐迷更为惊呼痛快的聆听到The All-American Rejects成员的创作天赋,拼贴更为多元的摇滚色彩,加附在原有的庞克声调中.在急速重拍的原始地下庞克音浪侵蚀下，给你最高能量的热力激荡.The All-American Rejects,可以叛逆,可以纯真,可以很有个性.乐队最突出的优点是对节奏优秀的操控力，使原本42分钟长的专辑，听起来却像21分钟。乐队看起来漫长的停滞调足了歌迷的胃口，但是当歌迷听到 The All-American Rejects 的新专辑Move Along（进行下去），他们终于明白Ritter和他的乐队确实花了时间和精力来打磨，精心制作这12首了不起的流行摇滚歌曲。
