今天是二二八紀念日,也是我們的創團紀念日。
謹以「殘香」這首曲子,紀念這個重要的日子。

Crescent Lament / 恆月三途 的歌曲 -「殘香」,收錄在2015年的專輯【花殤】中。

如同那年代許多台灣藝妲的共同宿命,一份平凡的親情跟愛情,對大稻埕藝妲阿香來說,也都是難以想像的奢求。當母親松子因婚姻不被父母接受而被送回日本、當戀人明風因戰爭肆虐而遲遲無法歸來,阿香只能面對無盡的大海,以曲寄思、以詩寄情,期待大海能將自己的思念,傳達到海的彼端。

「那海啊,帶走阮愛的兩個人…」,道出了台灣藝妲、甚至1940~1950年代台灣人民,那份人生不由己的無奈;而「夢斷憑欄淚沾襟,舉杯敬月,笑阮恐成空」,卻也展現出,阿香害怕此情被辜負的矛盾心情。

" Flavor of Emptiness " is included in Crescent Lament's 2015 album "Elegy for the Blossoms".

"Elegy for the Blossoms" is the second album of the Taiwanese gothic metal band Crescent Lament, released in June 2015, which recounts the sorrowful story of a Taiwanese geisha, A-hiong, that happened in the late Japanese period and early Chinese Nationalist Party period in Taiwan’s history.

Just like most Taiwanese geishas, A-hiong came from a broken family. After her mother left and her father died, she has been longing for a shelter that could console and comfort her. Bîng-hong’s appearance lighted up her life. But as the war kept them separated, her hope kept fading away.

In “Flavor of Emptiness”, A-hiong yearned for reunion with her mother and lover, and wished the wind could carry her feelings across the ocean.

【噤夢】是 Crescent Lament 推出的第三張專輯。該專輯以終戰後國民政府來台前期的台灣社會為背景,除了在音樂上融入更豐富的民俗樂器,也將上張專輯【花殤】的主角阿香再度帶入歌曲中,藉著藝妲阿香與戀人明風兩人未完的緣分,娓娓道出歷史洪流中台灣人民遭遇的悲傷故事。 【噤夢】由閃靈樂團吉他手小黑(Jesse)操刀擔任製作人,邀請多位著名音樂人客座演出,並於瑞典及芬蘭知名音樂工作室進行混音與後製。歌詞上延續台語創作,並由金曲作詞人武雄老師擔任顧問指導,呈現出台語歌詞的優雅與美麗。 專輯封面則再度由台灣頂尖畫家氫酸鉀跨刀設計,令人耳目一新的華麗且帶著一絲灰暗氣息,象徵著戰後那個時代的風雨欲來。以女性為視角訴說那段曾讓人噤聲的台灣歷史,融合著金屬樂與台灣民俗樂器的華麗背景與復古唯美氛圍,再搭配主唱Muer嗓音的細細哀愁、二胡旋律的扣人心弦,更讓人對這張專輯充滿期待:恆月三途,這次,想說什麼樣的故事? 「今夜又是落雨暝,雨聲藏哀悲;手彈琵琶淚抹停,風中寂寞時。」出自肺腑的字字句句,勾勒出歷歷在目的鮮明畫面。Crescent Lament 第三張專輯 -【噤夢】,2020年正式發行。 ---------------------------------------- Land of Lost Voices is the third album of Crescent Lament, released in 2020. A sequel to their second album, the story continues from where Elegy for the Blossoms left off: the unfinished romance between A-hiong and her lover. Using the red thread of fate that binds the star-crossed lovers, this concept album fishes out from the river of time a heartrending tale of Taiwanese people—for all to see. Land of Lost Voices was recorded and produced by Jesse Liu (Chthonic’s guitarist), mixed by Sweetspot Studio in Sweden, and mastered by Finnvox Studios in Finland. The band collaborated with Bu-hiông, the winner of Best Lyrics of Golden Melody Awards, in writing the Taiwanese lyrics, and invited the illustrator KCN again to design a noir yet oriental album cover, a visual metaphor for a series of historical tragedies that battered Taiwan in the post-WWII era.
