陳專祐樂團介紹

一　嗆辣紅椒合唱團（英語：Red Hot Chili Peppers，縮寫為RHCP）
是1983年成立於加州洛杉磯的美國另類搖滾樂團，現由主唱安東尼•基頓、吉他手約翰•伏許安、貝斯手「跳蚤」麥可•巴札里及鼓手查德•史密斯組成。樂團音樂風格多變，主要由傳統放克融合另類搖滾、龐克搖滾、迷幻搖滾等元素。
現任團員除了基頓和跳蚤是創團元老外，吉他手和鼓手原本分別由希勒•斯洛伐克與傑克•艾榮斯擔任。斯洛伐克於1988年死於服用過量海洛因，艾榮斯因而決意離團。前死甘迺迪家族合唱團鼓手佩里哥洛短暫的頂替了艾榮斯的空缺，隨後便由史密斯任鼓手一職。同時，吉他手由琴藝高超的伏許安接替。嗆辣紅椒便以此陣容發行了第四張與第五張專輯：《母奶》與《血糖性魅》。
Blood Sugar Sex Magik專輯大獲成功，銷量達到一千兩百萬張。但是Frusciante卻不適應樂隊的一夜成名並且在1992年突然地離開了樂隊。餘下的三位成員後來招募了Jane's Addiction樂隊的Dave Navarro並且錄製了他們後來的唱片，1995年的One Hot Minute。這張唱片後來失敗了，外界評論並沒有前作那麼理想並且銷量不及Blood Sugar Sex Magik的一半。不久之後Navarro因為創作上的分歧被解僱。
在離開樂隊的日子裡，Frusciante染上了非常嚴重的毒癮並一度面臨死亡。而後在1998年成功戒除並且在Flea的邀請下重返樂隊。重新組合的四個樂隊成員回到錄音室並且錄製了1999年在全球大賣一千五百萬張的Californication專輯，這也是樂隊至此有過的最輝煌的成功。時隔三年，By the Way 專輯延續了他們的成功。在2006年，樂隊發行了雙CD專輯Stadium Arcadium。這張專輯被滾石雜誌評為2006年度唱片第二名，並且最終獲得2007年葛萊美年度最佳唱片的提名。
Red Hot Chili Peppers is an American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1983. The band's current line-up is Anthony Kiedis (vocals), Michael "Flea" Balzary (bass), Chad Smith (drums) and Josh Klinghoffer (guitar). Their musical style has fused traditional funk with elements of other genres including hip hop, punk rock and psychedelic rock.
The group originally featured guitarist Hillel Slovak and drummer Jack Irons. Slovak, however, died of a heroin overdose in 1988, resulting in Irons' departure.[1] Irons was replaced briefly by former Dead Kennedys drummer D.H. Peligro before the band found a permanent replacement in Smith, while Slovak was replaced by up-and-coming guitarist John Frusciante. This lineup recorded the band's fourth and fifth albums, Mother's Milk (1989) and Blood Sugar Sex Magik (1991).
Blood Sugar Sex Magik was a significant record for the band; having sold over thirteen million copies, it provided the group's initial mainstream commercial success. Frusciante grew uncomfortable with this new found success and left abruptly in the middle of the tour for the album in 1992, descending into heroin addiction. After recruiting guitarist Arik Marshall to finish the tour, Kiedis, Flea, and Smith employed Dave Navarro of Jane's Addiction for their subsequent album, One Hot Minute (1995). Although fairly successful, it did not match the critical acclaim of Blood Sugar Sex Magik and sold less than half the copies of its predecessor. Shortly afterwards, Navarro departed the band due to creative differences. Frusciante, fresh out of drug rehabilitation, rejoined the band in 1998, at Flea's request. The reunited quartet returned to the studio to record Californication (1999), which went on to sell fifteen million units worldwide, becoming their most commercially successful album to date. It was followed three years later with By the Way (2002), which continued their success. In 2006, the group released the double album Stadium Arcadium, giving them their first American number one album.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers have won seven Grammy Awards. The band has sold over 55 million albums worldwide, has had eight singles in the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 (including three singles in the Top 10), five number one singles on the Mainstream Rock charts, and holds a record of eleven number one singles on the Modern Rock charts.

二　伊凡塞斯
樂團歷史
樂團的名字在英文中叫做Evanescence，中文媒體一般翻譯做伊凡賽斯，其意思就是「某事物消失的過程和狀態」。在確定樂團名字之前，埃米•李和本•穆迪還曾經考慮過很多名字，比如稚童之夢（Childish Intentions）和重疾（Strichen）等。最初很多人認為伊凡賽斯樂團會變成一支基督搖滾類型的樂團——但是後來樂團發現自己根本不想和宗教沾邊。從此以後，很多專門售賣基督類型商品的商店的貨架上再也沒有出現伊凡賽斯樂團的影子。
伊凡賽斯最成功的單曲叫做《讓我重生》（Bring Me to Life），這首單曲在全世界範圍內受到了好評，並且曾經在美國告示牌最棒的100首歌中排名到第五。電影《夜魔俠》中也用此曲作為音軌，除此之外還有另外一首膾炙人口的歌曲《末日封印》（My Immortal）。2004年的格萊美獎表彰了伊凡賽斯樂團做出的貢獻：他們獲得了最佳硬搖滾演出獎和最佳新人獎。
他們的第一張專輯是《Origin》，於2000年發布，大多數歌迷對此並不知曉。之後伊凡賽斯還發行了2個特別版專輯，分別是《同名EP》（1998年）和《Whisper EP》（2003年），現在已經很難尋覓了。事實上，樂團最成功的專輯《落入凡間》中的《末日封印》一曲在《Origin》也可以找到。但是，埃米•李自己並不承認《Origin》是他們的第一張專輯，因為這張專輯只是給發行公司送去了幾首還未曾完成的歌曲，結果只售出了2500張。不過，埃米在接受一次採訪的時候，鼓勵歌迷們在樂團的主頁上下載原來那些老歌。
樂團的創立者是埃米和穆迪。他們從小在阿肯色州相識，並且還一起演出過。他們發現兩人有對吉米•海德里格斯和比約克的共同愛好，於是他們開始一起寫歌（第一首叫做《Solitude》，由埃米作詞，穆迪作曲）。有一段時間他們找不到和自己合作的音樂人，而且也沒有成立樂團的專業輔助。但是他們最開始一起做的兩首歌讓當地的樂團注意到。最後他們開始進行演出，並且成為當地最受歡迎的藝人之一。
2003年10月，穆迪在樂團進行歐洲巡迴演出的時候突然離開樂團。他自己說離開的原因是「創作分歧」。在幾個月後的一次採訪中，埃米說到：「如果我們沒有變化的話，是沒法做出第二張專輯的。」從此以後，埃米一直說穆迪的離開其實是一種解脫，因為他和樂團的關係很緊張。特里•巴爾薩摩加入了樂團取代了穆迪的位置。最近，本公開承認他一直受到狂躁症的困擾，這也是他離開伊凡賽斯的真正原因。
伊凡賽斯在2006年10月推出第二張專輯，名為《搖滾聖門》。
Evanescence is an American rock band founded in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1995 by singer/pianist Amy Lee and guitarist Ben Moody.[1][2] After recording private albums, the band released their first full-length album, Fallen, on Wind-up Records in 2003. Fallen sold more than 15 million copies worldwide and helped the band win two Grammy Awards.[3] A year later, Evanescence released their first live album, Anywhere but Home, which sold more than one million copies worldwide. In 2006, the band released their second studio album, The Open Door, which sold more than five million copies.[4]
The line-up of the band has changed several times: David Hodges leaving in 2002, co-founder Moody left in 2003 (mid-tour), bassist Will Boyd in 2006, followed by guitarist John LeCompt and drummer Rocky Gray in 2007. The last two changes led to a hiatus, with temporary band members contributing to tour performances. In June 2009, it was announced on the Evanescence website that the band was working on new material for a third studio album for release in the second half of 2010.
三　彩虹樂團
地下時期:1991~1993年
1991年2月某日,以團長tetsuya為中心於大阪市結成,當時的團員是:主唱hyde(當時標記:hide)、吉他手hiro、貝斯手tetsuya(當時標記:tetsu,2010年改名)、鼓手pero。團名「L'Arc~en~Ciel」是法語「空中的橋」,意指彩虹。 起初,他們努力地在各個live house作演出,久而久之,L'Arc~en~Ciel的知名度漸漸上升。 1992年6月,吉他手hiro退團,新吉他手由tetsuya的學長ken代替,同年的11月25日,L'Arc~en~Ciel的第一張地下單曲『flood of tears/夜想花』發售,限定1000張完售,12月,鼓手pero退團,由新鼓手sakura代替。 1993年4月,他們的第一張大碟『DUNE』發售,首週即站上公信榜獨立音樂榜的NO.1,這無疑是對當時才24、5歲的他們的一大鼓舞。
[編輯] 從地下到主流:1994~1997年
1994年7月1日,首張VHS單曲『眠りによせて』發售,是他們正式出道的單曲,為樂團界極少數以VHS單曲出道的樂團。13天後,第二張大碟『Tierra』發行,首週登上公信榜NO.7,總銷量一舉破10萬,10月發行的LIVE定番曲『Blurry eyes』也獲得了5萬張的銷售量。 早期的L'Arc~en~Ciel幾乎都只是在小型live house作演出,這時期的L'Arc~en~Ciel已經可以在市民會館(一般容量為2000人左右)演出了。 1995年7月6日,首張10萬單曲『Vivid Colors』發售,週間順位首度爬升到前20名,還以此曲在知名音樂節目「MUSIC STATION」首次演出,從此打開知名度。 同年9月1日,第三張大碟『heavenly』發售,首週登上公信榜NO.3,銷量衝破40萬,同年12月,在日本武道館開唱,吸引數萬歌迷,也是他們首場大型演唱會。 1996年,他們發行了3張單曲,而且3張都打入週間前10名,銷量首次破30萬,其中以『flower』最為暢銷。年底,第四張大碟『True』發售,首度登上周間NO.2,神奇的是,在數週後此專輯才登上冠軍,最後賣破了一百五十萬張,也讓L'Arc~en~Ciel從此知名度大開,隨後即舉辦一連串的巡迴演唱會。 1997年1月,巡迴演唱會告一段落,本來,一切按照計畫進行,結果,2月24日,鼓手sakura因持有興奮劑被警方逮捕,活動完全被打亂,而原定3月發行的新單曲『the Fourth Avenue Café』也無法發行,順帶一提,日本演藝圈對毒品控管嚴格,只要一抓到有人吸毒,此一人或團體活動一切停止,單曲或專輯也要下架,非常嚴重。

1991–1996: Early Career
In February 1991, bassist Tetsuya, later band leader, recruited vocalist Hyde along with guitarist Hiro and drummer Pero, and formed a band under the name of L'Arc-en-Ciel. After a year of gaining notoriety in their hometown of Osaka, Hiro left the band on June 12, 1992. Tetsuya convinced his friend Ken to quit his university studies (he was an architecture major at The Nagoya Institute of Technology) and join the band as the guitarist, but soon left the band on December 30, 1992. In 1993, a new drummer, Sakura, joined the band.[2]
On April 1, 1993, the band released their debut album Dune under the indie label Danger Crue. The album was a success and rose to number one on the Oricon indies charts, catching the attention of some major labels. In 1994, L'Arc-en-Ciel signed on with Sony's Ki/oon division, releasing their second album, Tierra that same year. Heavenly followed in 1995. True, released in 1996, became their first number-one, million selling album.[3]
1998–2000: Blockbuster success in J-pop market
Their 1998 single "Winter Fall", became their first number-one single on the Oricon charts.[9][10] They released the album Heart on February 25, 1998. Ark and Ray were released simultaneously on July 1, 1999, and became the first Japanese albums to be released simultaneously in many other Asian countries. Both topped the Oricon music charts, with Ark occupying number one and Ray at number two. The release of ark and ray marked the commercial high point of the band's career, with each selling over two million copies.[11]
Their next album Real was released on August 30, 2000. However, it was their last studio album for some time. "Stay Away" from the album Real was featured in DrumMania 4th Mix, making the song playable on the machine.
[edit] 2001–2003: Hiatus and solo projects
The compilation Clicked Singles Best 13 was released on March 14, 2001. The compilation included twelve songs chosen by fans online in Asia[12] and an additional thirteenth song, "Anemone".[13] Their album Real was re-released as Super Audio CD on July 4, 2001. L'Arc-en-Ciel's last new single before their hiatus, "Spirit Dreams Inside: Another Dream", was released on September 5, 2001. Their English language song "Spirit Dreams Inside" was adopted for the closing theme song to the movie Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.
After "Spirit Dreams Inside", the band went on a hiatus as the members began working on various solo projects. Hyde released two solo albums (Roentgen and 666) and starred in the movie Moon Child with the popular Japanese soloist Gackt. Hyde also played the part of Adam in the movie Kagen no Tsuki (Last Quarter), based on the manga by the same title. Ken founded Sons of All Pussys with L'Arc-en-Ciel's former drummer Sakura. Tetsu started Tetsu69 and Yukihiro sang with Acid Android.
Three compilation albums The Best of L'Arc-en-Ciel 1994–1998, The Best of L'Arc-en-Ciel 1998–2000 and The Best of L'Arc-en-Ciel C/W were released on March 19, 2003. The album series included their almost all singles at that time except "Spirit Dreams Inside -Another Dream-".
[edit] 2004: Comeback and U.S. concert debut
In June 2003, L'Arc-en-Ciel performed a series of seven concerts in Tokyo called the Shibuya Seven Days, during which they announced a new album for release the following year. The band released "Ready Steady Go" in February 2004, its first single in more than three years. The song was used as an opening for a popular anime series, Fullmetal Alchemist.[14] It topped Oricon weekly single charts.[15] A cover of the song is used in a video game for the Nintendo DS called Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan. The single was followed by "Hitomi no Jūnin", in early March. The album, Smile, was released on March 31. Shortly afterwards, on June 2, 2004, the single "Jiyuu e no Shoutai" introduced P'unk-en-Ciel, a partial change, for the first time on CD with "Milky Way".
On July 31, 2004, L'Arc-en-Ciel made their North American concert debut at the anime convention Otakon, held annually in Baltimore, Maryland. Approximately 12,000 people attended the concert, which was held at an outside venue for the first time in Otakon's musical guest history, at 1st Mariner Arena.[16] They were also the first Japanese act (and until JAM Project in 2008, the only) to perform at the Arena. On May 31, 2005, Tofu Records, Sony Music Japan's U.S. label, released the much-anticipated DVD of the Otakon 2004 concert Live in U.S.A. On June 25, 2007, L'Arc-en-Ciel signed a deal with HMV America.
[edit] 2005–2006: Asia live tour and solo projects
In 2005, the band released various singles, including "Killing Me", "New World", and "Jojōshi". These were later featured on their album, Awake, which was released on June 22 with twelve tracks, including "Lost Heaven", the closing theme of the Fullmetal Alchemist movie. The band's single, "Link", released on July 20, 2005, was also featured in the movie as the opening theme, which was included by their next album Kiss.


Hyde singing "Revelation" during the 2005 Awake tour
In August 2005, the band went on their Awake tour, which was limited to Japan. The tour featured displays of anti-war sentiment, reflecting similar lyrics of the songs of the album. The Japanese Awake tour was followed by the Asia Live 2005 tour, with performances in Seoul and Shanghai, closing with concerts in Japan. Japan's two concerts took place at the Tokyo Dome.
Following the Awake and Asia Live tours, L'Arc-en-Ciel's members turned their attention back to their solo projects. Tetsuya began recording with a new band called Creature Creature. Yukihiro rejoined Acid Android, which released single "Let's Dance" on April 5, 2006. Acid Android joined Mucc, another Japanese rock band, to perform two concerts in Shanghai, China in April 2006.[17]
Hyde composed "Glamorous Sky", the theme song to the film adaption of the manga Nana starring pop singer Mika Nakashima. It was the first time Hyde composed music for another vocalist. Hyde's latest solo album, Faith, was released in Japan on April 26, 2006, accompanied by a five month tour throughout Japan between April and August 2006. After signing on with Tofu Records, four small concerts were scheduled in San Francisco and Anaheim, California in the United States. Hyde made his U.S. debut in July 2006, the first of L'Arc-en-Ciel's solo projects to extend internationally. On August 23, Ken released a solo single entitled "Speed".[18]
[edit] 2006–2009: 15th anniversary and Europe concert debut
On November 25 and 26, 2006, L'Arc-en-Ciel played two shows at the Tokyo Dome to celebrate their 15th anniversary, entitled L'Anniversary. It sold out in two minutes, breaking their former record.[19] A poll was created on the official website during the weeks before the concert which allowed fans to pick which songs they would like to hear at the event.[20] The concert was later shown on the WOWOW channel on December 23, 2006. It was also broadcast on February 8, 2007 on Korea MTV.
L'Arc-en-Ciel later recorded the song "Shine" to be used as the opening song for the NHK anime, Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit. They kicked-off their Mata Heart Ni Hi Wo Tsukero 2007 tour in Japan. L'Arc-en-Ciel released the single "Seventh Heaven" on May 30, 2007, which topped the Oricon charts.[21] The song "My Heart Draws a Dream", used in a Subaru commercial, was released as a single on August 29, 2007, and made the #1 spot on the Oricon charts.[22] The song "Daybreak's Bell" was used as the first opening theme for the anime Mobile Suit Gundam 00.[23] It was released as a single on October 10, 2007, topping the Oricon weekly charts as well.[24] From November 14 to December 25, 2007, there was a limited edition single titled "Hurry Xmas", along with two new DVDs coming out in September and December, titled 15th L'Anniversary Live and Chronicle 3 respectively. Their new studio album Kiss, released on November 21, 2007, debuted at the number-one position on the Oricon charts.[25]
L'Arc-en-Ciel performed the Theater of Kiss tour, which was held from December 22, 2007 to February 17, 2008.
