Beat The Devil's Tattoo专辑介绍
Drowned In Sound(8/10)+AMG(4/5)+Spin(3.5/5)+Slant(4/5)+The Times(3/5)+滚石杂志(3/5)等媒体一致推崇的美籍黑暗摇滚部队
团员扛起撰写/制作大任，登记美国独立榜TOP4+另类榜TOP9+摇滚榜TOP14
主流界的异教徒，深黯各世代先锋内涵，将鲜明简单音符线条重新组合排列，为其创意取材添入崭新风貌
颓废到令人无法自拔，驾驭着黑暗冷调声线，紧跟着Jesus And Mary Chain、The Velvet Underground、Joy Division、My Bloody Valentine许多前辈步伐，走出似曾相识且迷人的韵脚，一组道地的美国乐团Black Rebel Motorcycle Club，和The Strokes分霸东西两岸的Garage Rock佼佼者。挟带大量Blues、Folk Revival、Space、Neo-Psychedelia多重声响，出道至今虽有主流名厂力捧，仍不失独立作风和性格，10多年来戮力走音乐之途，依然是最具摇滚兴味的优质部队。
2005年曾受邀来台演出的Black Rebel Motorcycle Club(以下简称BRMC)，至今仍让乐迷津津乐道。由来自旧金山的Peter Hayes(主唱/吉他)、Robert Levon Been(主唱/贝斯)和Nick Jago(鼓手/打击乐器)三个热血摇滚客组成，团名灵感取自马龙白兰度1953年电影「The Wild Ones」裡的机车群党称谓。虽然2001年率先于美国本土问世首张同名专辑『B.R.M.C.』，却遭冷落的反成为英伦瞩目焦点。打铁趁热的移师伦敦灌录第二张作品『Take Them On, On Your Own』，奔上英国金榜季军，成功反扑美国市场Top47。转进入RCA新公司怀抱发行『Howl』，企图堆砌多样原始风格，令严苛乐评惊奇不已，英国仍有Top14成绩。回归早期狂放行径的第四张大碟『Baby 81』，玩兴大开的激盪出更为过瘾之摇滚化学反应！2008年Nick求去，换上Leah Shapiro入替鼓手一职。
筹备多时的【Beat The Devil’s Tattoo】，由BRMC团员们一肩扛起撰写/製作大任，登记US独立榜Top4+另类榜Top9+摇滚榜Top14。将怀旧气氛营造彻底的“Beat The Devil’s Tattoo”，那种听不腻的蓝调剪贴民谣复甦音场，相当引人入胜；撩起戏剧性编曲、提升宽广乐种视野、熟练稳重的演奏技巧倒灌至“Conscience Killer”裡头；扭曲高频的吉他声响堆砌，同时顺畅线条让“Bad Blood”妆点的更为耐听；燃烧The Velvet Underground火焰的“Evol”，添入魅惑十足的奇绚彩度；晦暗叙事诗“Long Way Down”和长达10分21秒的“Half-State”，如同遨游在一个无压的空间，迷离且翻转着煽动性强烈之音韵。不得不再次佩服主流界的异教徒BRMC，深黯各世代先锋的内涵，将鲜明简单的音符线条重新组合排列，为其创意取材添入崭新风貌！
