''Expatriate'' is the debut album from Toronto, Canada-based indie rock group The Coast. The album was released in Canada on April 1, 2008 and in the UK on February 9, 2009 via Aporia Records. The album was released digitally in the US on August 19, 2008, and was released on CD on May 5, 2009 by Minneapolis-based indie record label Afternoon Records. ''Expatriate'' follows the band's critically acclaimed debut self-titled EP from 2006. The album was produced, recorded, and mixed by Chris Stringer in late 2007. "Tightrope" was the first single, released on 7" vinyl in 2008 by Magnificent Sevens, and as a promo single in the UK in early February 2009. The Coast toured the US and Canada extensively after the album's initial release. In an interview, Ian Fosbery said: "An expatriate is a person who is not from this country and we started to feel like because we're always on the road and we're not always around, we'd come home and it's a really weird feeling, like you feel out of place."〔(Toronto Music Scene interview )〕 ''Expatriate'' was released to generally positive reviews. ''Soundcheck'' magazine proclaimed the band "has just penned a gem of an indie pop album that serves as a sparkling expedition into thick, layered pop music that is equal parts Tokyo Police Club simplicity and U2 crescendos," and hailed the band's "dramatic interlacing of densely composed rock and charmingly earnest pop music."〔 (Review - The Coast: Expatriate - Soundcheck Magazine ) 〕 ==Track listing== ''All songs written by The Coast.'' # "Tightrope" – 2:48 # "Nueva York" – 3:25 # "The Moon Is Dead" – 4:00 # "No Secret Why" – 3:20 # "Song for Gypsy Rose Lee" – 4:07 # "Floodlights" – 4:23 # "We're the Ones" – 3:22 # "Killing Off Our Friends" – 4:23 # "Ceremony Guns" – 3:36 # "Play Me the Apostle" – 3:35 # "All the Boys" – 3:12 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「Expatriate (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
