This Mortal Coil ----- Filigree & Shadow



"Filigree & Shadow", which released on 22 September 1986, is the second album released by 4AD collective This Mortal Coil, an umbrella title for a loose grouping of guest musicians and vocalists brought together by label boss Ivo Watts-Russell.

The supergroup consists primarily of artists attached to the 4AD label, of which Watts-Russell was the co-founder and (at the time) the owner and director. The album was released in September 1986, and entered the UK Independent Music chart on 11 October 1986 and peaked at #2, spending 16 weeks on the chart in total.

昨日面世40週年紀念的專輯：This Mortal Coil “Filigree & Shadow” (22-9-1986)

英國獨立廠牌4AD創辦人Ivo Watts-Russell領軍的音樂計劃/音樂團體This Mortal Coil之第二張專輯，《Filigree & Shadow》以雙專輯形式發表、全長74分鐘。作為This Mortal Coil三部曲專輯的中旬作品，從而也被公認為他們最具創作力的核心centrepiece。

第二代This Mortal Coil的樂手陣容包括Cocteau Twins的Simon Raymonde，Dif Juz的Alan Curtis、David Curtis和Richard Thomas，The Wolfgang Press的Mark Cox和Andrew Gray，Colourbox的Steven Young，Breathless的Dominic Appleton，Dead Can Dance的Peter Ulrich，Siouxsie and the Banshees的Martin McCarrick，Alison Limerick，Jazzateers / Sunset Gun的Deirdre Rutkowski和Louise Rutkowski等。

雙專輯收錄的25首曲目，包括10首改編歌(Pearls Before Swine、Colourbox、Judy Collins、Van Morrison、Gene Clark、Tim Buckley、Gary Ogan & Bill Lamb、Quicksilver Messenger Service、Colin Newman、Talking Heads的作品)、15首原創電影感器樂曲目，彼此互相梅花間竹地串連成猶如概念專輯的鋪排進程。

唱片名字《Filigree & Shadow》「繁絲與陰影」(日本版譯作《銀細工とシャドー》)，已是那麼富有詩意與文藝氣息，交織著細膩精緻與幽暗戚然之美，惹人遐思。專輯裡美不勝收、思古幽情、黯然神傷的歌曲正比比皆是，聽得斯人獨憔悴，樂迷心目中4AD的唯美傷逝ethereal經典。
