Avalanche is the first solo album by Canadian artist Matthew Good. Released in 2003, the album marked a creative departure from his earlier work with the Matthew Good Band, and featured accompaniment by the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra on several tracks. The album had three singles: "Weapon", "In a World Called Catastrophe" and "Near Fantastica", although "Near Fantastica" was released only to radio in a substantially shorter edit. The music video for "Weapon" won a Juno Award, which was shared between Good and co-director Ante Kovac (Good refused to accept the award, however, as he boycotts the Juno Awards). Producer Warne Livesey, who previously worked with Good on the massively successful ''Beautiful Midnight'', received a Juno Award nomination for his work on ''Avalanche''. An excerpt of "Weapon" was used as the opening credits theme music for CTV's series ''The Eleventh Hour''. ==Reception & Commercial performance== The album received high praise from both music critics and fans of Good alike. The album debuted at No. 2 on the Canadian Albums Chart and sold 16,800 copies in its first week.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Matt Good has solid debut on charts )〕 The album was certified Gold on May 8, 2003.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gold & Platinum Certification – May 2003 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Avalanche (Matthew Good album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
