来自纽约的独立摇滚乐队。08年乐队曾与Agyness Deyn合作一首单曲《Who》,原由乐队的主唱正是那个深受Punk文化影响的小女孩的男友,不过这只是噱头罢了。
It seems like the early 21st century is loaded with alt rock acts that sound like new wave acts circa the late ‘70s/early ‘80s. But probably in most cases, it's a haphazard coincidence, as the groups in question were merely influenced by third generation new wavers - who have no bloody idea who the heck Joe Jackson is. But then there is Five O'Clock Heroes, who specialize in a style known as ‘jerk pop' (due to their fondness for slashing "Roxanne"-esque guitar lines), and draws from a musical vocabulary that is unmistakably straight from Look Sharp! and This Year's Model on their 2007 debut, Bend to the Breaks. Listening to such ditties as "Time on My Hands" and "Good Lovers," it's mighty hard not to think how swell these uptempo ditties would have sounded as part of the soundtracks to Fast Times At Ridgemont High or The Last American Virgin. Sticky sweet power pop (which is entirely keyboard-less) never goes out of style — especially when it's loaded with hooks — and Five O'Clock Heroes sure can craft a instantly memorable pop gem, as Bend to the Breaks is loaded with ‘em.
PIAS厂牌介绍:
PIAS是一个国际性厂牌,它最初由Kenny Gates 和 Michel Lambot于1983年在布鲁塞尔创办,现在这家公司已经在包括荷兰,英国,德国,发过,西班牙,澳大利亚,瑞典,美国设立了分公司
PIAS旗下有许多多产的优秀组合,像Little Barrie, The Legendary Pink Dots, Young Gods, The Neon Judgement, La Muerte, Sigur Rós, Mogwai, DJ Format, Front 242, Soulwax, Tiga, Vitalic, Mark B, Editors, Voicst, Click Click and Scala & Kolacny Brothers.
厂牌的名字PIAS,是"Play it again, Sam" 的缩写,来源于电影Casablanca中的一句台词的(错误?)引用,实际上在电影中演员说的是"Play it once, Sam."
Play It Again, Sam这个名字同样也是一个1972年的由伍迪.艾伦坡主演,Herbert Ross导演的百老汇戏剧的名字
PIAS和另一家在芝加哥成立的电音厂牌Wax Trax! Records在1988的合伙创立了两个子厂牌Play It Again Sam Records U.S.A. and Wax Trax! Europe,PIAS USA由Wax Trax!在北美的分公司管理运营,而Wax Trax! Europe由PIAS管理运营.这两个子厂牌都在1991年初解散了,Caroline Records接收了PIAS USA的名字
在2006年初Music Week的头版报道说PIAS将要与rival Wall of Sound合并从而变成一家超级独立厂牌.但是此后没有透露更多的细节,Music Week建议这家厂牌的名字可以叫做'Wall Of Sam'
"Play it again Sam"同样也被一家名叫Superior Software的公司用来再版他们的旧的作品,最早的Play it again Sam包括4个游戏,这4个游戏每个都曾夺得过受大众欢迎程度的第一,但是之后这个系列的作品质量有所下降,只卖出了很少一点
