''No More Stories Are Told Today, I'm Sorry They Washed Away // No More Stories, The World Is Grey, I'm Tired, Let's Wash Away'' is the fifth studio album by the Danish band Mew. It was released in Scandinavia on 17 August, the United Kingdom on 24 August, the United States on 25 August, and Japan on 26 August 2009. ''No More Stories...'' is produced by Rich Costey who also produced their breakthrough album ''Frengers'', and is the band's first album as an official three-piece after bass player Johan Wohlert left to spend time with his family, before rejoining the band prior to the release of ''+ -''. According to lead vocalist Jonas Bjerre, this album is happier, "dancier", and more upbeat than its predecessor, ''And the Glass Handed Kites'', which had a dark theme of fear. Bjerre explained the unusually long title of the album to ''Gaffa'': "We originally wanted a short title for the album but we couldn't find sufficiently redemptive words. The final title is the lyrics to the short intermezzo 'Hawaii Dream', and when Bo () suggested that we used the complete text as a title it didn't take him long to convince Silas (Graae Jørgensen ) and myself. It was like finding the missing piece in a puzzle". The opening track, "New Terrain", if played backwards reveals another song entitled "Nervous" which is added as a bonus track to the vinyl edition of the album. The lyrics were posted as a poem on their Danish record company Evil Office's website.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.evil-office.net/eevviillooffffiiccee_nmsattistwanmstwigitlwa/ )〕 ==Pre-release== The band released information on a few tracks in interviews. According to SPIN.com, "Cartoons and Macramé Wounds" would be a "challenging five-minute opus" that supposedly reversed the traditional Mew formula of a quiet buildup into an epic by starting out gigantically before fizzling away into something more minimal, and "Beach" was called the band's most straightforward song ever. According to the band, they made a more upbeat album and it would not be one extended suite like the predecessor, ''And the Glass Handed Kites''. 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「No More Stories...」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
