Beauty Pill is a band from Washington, DC, based largely around the songs and ideas of singer/guitarist/producer Chad Clark. Beauty Pill's music is characterized by cinematic arrangements, angular melodies, and electronic textures and treatments. This detailed, atmospheric aesthetic contrasts starkly from its label-mates on Dischord Records. In 2014 the band signed to the art label Butterscotch Records. This sensibility reflects Clark’s parallel profession as a producer and engineer. His discography includes work with The Dismemberment Plan, Sparklehorse, Fugazi, Blakroc, Bernie Worrell, Marc Ribot, Mary Timony, The Evens, Lungfish, Bob Mould, The Wilderness, The Caribbean, Craig Wedren, among others. ==Trio period (2001–2002)== Following the dissolution of their previous band Smart Went Crazy (whose 1997 double album swan song ''Con Art'' was listed as one of the 100 greatest records of the '90s by Pitchfork), Chad Clark and Abram Goodrich decided to extend their songwriting chemistry. Inviting their friend Joanne Gholl, the trio made and released an EP called ''The Cigarette Girl from the Future''. This 5-song EP struck a balance between forward-leaning, avant-garde sonic experimentalism and simple, charismatic tunes. It garnered critical praise from the ''Washington Post'', ''Chicago Tribune'', and ''Pitchfork'' (which touted the band’s promise and rated the record a 9.0). The attempt to transform into a touring band, however, proved difficult and this incarnation of Beauty Pill dissolved before ever playing a show. 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「Beauty Pill」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
