Bluebottle Kiss is a guitar-based, indie rock band from Sydney, Australia. ==History== Formed in the mid 1990s, Bluebottle Kiss took its influences from the late 1980s American indie scene, which included artists such as Sonic Youth and the Afghan Whigs, singer-songwriters of the 1970s, such as Neil Young and Van Morrison, as well as the very creative Australian independent scene of the same period with artists such as The Church and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. The band signed to Murmur, an imprint of Sony Records. Initially, Bluebottle Kiss found only limited commercial success due to a challenging sound that ranged dissonant and rustic sounds to folk tinged, melancholy pop. Although dropped from Murmur after the release of ''Somnambulist Homesick Blues'' in 1997, Bluebottle Kiss continued to make records on their own with various indie imprints. In 1998, ''Tap Dancing on the Titanic'' was issued on the now-dormant Troy Horse label.〔(Australian Music Online :: Labels :: Troy Horse/MDS )〕 In 1999, ''Patient'' was released on Citadel Records, whose catalogue includes New Christs, Died Pretty, The Stems and more recently Knievel.〔(Australian Music Online :: Labels :: Citadel Records )〕 The band briefly moved to the USA after this before regrouping as revamped four piece in 2001. In 2002, a long-time music fan, Nick Carr - inspired by labels such as Citadel - started his own label, Nonzero Records, in order to release Bluebottle Kiss' ''Revenge is Slow'' album.〔(Australian Music Online :: Interviews :: Nick Carr - Nonzero Records )〕 The album was also released in the US on the In Music We Trust label.〔(In Music We Trust Records )〕 The relationship between Bluebottle Kiss and Nonzero Records has endured, with the band's sixth studio album - the 2 CD ''Doubt Seeds'' - being their third album, among numerous singles and EPs, on the label. ''Doubt Seeds'' was produced by Jamie Hutchings at Linear Recording studio in Sydney. 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「Bluebottle Kiss」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
