睡眠代幣，“即使在阿卡迪亞”。

英國搖滾樂隊睡眠代幣已成為重型音樂中的兩極分化力量。

British rockers Sleep Token have become quite the polarizing force in the realm of heavy music. The band, known for its anonymous members, cryptic lyrics and dramatic live shows, have seen their fourth full-length record, "Even In Arcadia," generate a buzz among fans and critics alike.

英國搖滾歌手的睡眠代幣已成為重型音樂領域的兩極分化力量。該樂隊以其匿名成員而聞名，神秘的歌詞和戲劇性的現場表演，已經看到了他們的第四張全長唱片“即使在阿卡迪亞”，在粉絲和評論家中引起了轟動。

The 10-song collection is set to arrive on May 9 via Sleep Token and RCA Records. It's an album that presents a hearty dose of risk and ambition, sure to be a topic of conversation among music lovers.

10首歌曲的收藏定於5月9日通過睡眠令牌和RCA記錄到達。這是一張專輯，呈現出豐盛的風險和野心，一定是音樂愛好者之間的談話話題。

The material on "Even In Arcadia" is weighty, with several tracks approaching the six-minute mark. Opener "Look to Windward" begins with an 8-bit-style synth intro, setting the stage for a stark and atmospheric soundscape. As the signature deep warble of vocalist Vessel enters, strings provide tension in the background.

“即使在Arcadia”上的材料很重，有幾首軌道接近六分鐘的標記。開場器“ Look to Windward”始於8位風格的合成器介紹，為鮮明的大氣音景奠定了基礎。隨著歌手船隻的簽名深刻搏擊，弦樂在背景中提供了張力。

The song gradually builds, finally exploding into a punishing guitar-driven attack fueled by down-tuned riffs and complex drumming patterns. But just as quickly as it escalates, everything falls away, leaving a pop loop that serves as a coda.

這首歌逐漸構建，最終爆炸為懲罰吉他驅動的攻擊，以下調的即興演奏和復雜的鼓模式為動力。但是，就像升級一樣，一切都掉了，留下了充當尾聲的流行循環。

"Emergence" offers a strong follow-up, fusing dynamic hard rock with a keen sense of infectious melody and power. The band pushes the music in the opposite direction on "Past Self." Clocking in at a brief three-and-a-half minutes, the song has a surprisingly conventional pop structure.

“出現”提供了強有力的後續行動，融合了動態的硬岩，並具有敏銳的感染旋律和力量感。樂隊將音樂推向“過去的自我”的方向相反。這首歌在短短三分鐘的短短三分鐘內就具有出人意料的傳統流行結構。

Heavy guitar riffs and thunderous drumming are replaced by programmed beats, while Vessel delivers a vocal with soulful restraint. Together, the elements create a sonic landscape that feels both familiar and new.

沉重的吉他即興演奏和雷鳴式的鼓聲被編程的節拍所取代，而船隻則充滿了束縛。這些元素共同創造了一種既熟悉又新的聲音景觀。

"Dangerous" bridges this Jekyll-and-Hyde style, with moody alt-pop giving way to dramatic hard rock. Sleep Token also tackles its own fame and the positives and negatives of having a hyper-engaged fan base on "Caramel."

“危險”橋接了這種Jekyll和Hyde風格，Moody Alt-Pop讓位於戲劇性的硬石。睡眠代幣還解決了自己的名聲，以及在“焦糖”上擁有超級粉絲的積極和負面因素。

Sleep Token fans have come under fire for attempting to dox the identities of the anonymous band members, going so far as to track down their birth certificates. While the facts of the matter are disputed, the saga only fed the legend of the band.

睡眠代幣的粉絲因試圖吸引匿名樂隊成員的身份而受到抨擊，甚至可以追踪他們的出生證明。儘管事實是有爭議的，但傳奇只給樂隊的傳說提供了。

"Up on the dice, but low on the cards / I try not to talk about how it’s harder now / Can I get a mirror side-stage / Looking sideways at my own visage getting worse," the frontman sings.

主唱唱著唱歌。

"Provider" also offers a heavy-to-soft whiplash effect, cramming hard rock with slick pop and quiet balladry. Unlike some of the earlier songs, this one doesn't feel like it warrants the drawn-out style. "Gethsemane" takes on a similar emotional and musical rollercoaster.

“提供者”還提供了厚重的鞭打效果，用光滑的流行音樂和安靜的民謠塞滿了硬石。與一些較早的歌曲不同，這首歌並不值得一提。 “ Gethsemane”進行了類似的情感和音樂過山車。

The title track is a mostly piano-driven song with electronic accents. Vessel brings a slightly different texture to his vocal performance, adding a blues-styled tone. Mid-tempo rocker "Damocles" works ironically well as a pop track with memorable hooks and infectious melodies.

標題曲目是帶有電子口音的鋼琴驅動的歌曲。船隻給他的聲樂表現帶來了略有不同的質感，並增加了藍調風格的音調。中型搖滾樂手“ Damocles”諷刺地工作，是一條具有令人難忘的鉤子和傳染性旋律的流行曲目。

Vessel seems to take aim at his own stardom with a self-deprecating tone.

船隻似乎以自嘲的語氣瞄準了自己的明星。

"Well I know I should be touring / I know these chords are boring / But I can’t always be killing the game," he sings.

他唱歌說：“好吧，我知道我應該巡迴演出 /我知道這些和弦很無聊 /但是我不能總是殺死比賽。”

The album closes on its most ambitious entry with sweeping opus "Infinite Baths," which at eight minutes journeys from an intimate and quiet introduction to a chaotic conclusion and Vessel screaming over a fiery assault.

這張專輯以最雄心勃勃的作品結束了盛大的作品《無限浴室》，在八分鐘的旅程中，從親密而安靜的介紹到混亂的結論和船隻對火熱的攻擊尖叫。

"Even In Arcadia" presents a complicated equation. Fans of the band's heavier side may find those moments too few and far between. Instead there’s a broader range. But even if the record's aims are too lofty, the strength in the songwriting and musicianship ultimately win out. The debate won't die down anytime soon, and that might be the shot in the arm that the heavy rock world needs.

“即使在阿卡迪亞”也提出了一個複雜的方程式。樂隊較重的一面的粉絲可能會發現那些時刻太少了。相反，範圍更大。但是，即使唱片的目標太大了，歌曲創作和音樂家的力量最終勝出。辯論不會很快消失，這可能是重岩世界需要的手臂射擊。
