The pride of San Marcos, Texas, THIS WILL DESTROY YOU are an instrumental quartet who play a cascading brand of cinematic rock music. "Young Mountain" is their formerly self-released masterstroke, a 6-song, 36 minute composition of aural brilliance that has already garnered an obsessed fanbase both in their home state and in underground circles worldwide. In spite of its previous CD-R-only incarnation, Decoy Magazine featured the album at #5 on their "Top 50 Instrumental Albums of 2005," ranking it ahead of SIGUR R'OS, PELICAN, and other successful modern acts. THIS WILL DESTROY YOU has catapulted quickly to the forefront of American instrumental bands in part due to their geographical lineage. In short, they are the natural progression and modern incarnation of all great Southwestern music from many generations past. Texas is in the blood of these four young men and every note they hang evokes the imagery and feel of traversing the long, lonesome highway of the! Southwest. Bands like THIS WILL DESTROY YOU and EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY have become our new Americana and everyone from T-Bone Walker to Wild Bill Longley are resting more peacefully because of it.

Chase Coy has an acoustic project called Dear Juliet. He’s a 17-year-old who sings, plays, writes and records all his own music. Chase formed Dear Juliet in December of 2006 and has since risen to become one of the top unsigned musical acts in Indiana. An honest voice and a loyal fan base continue to propel Dear Juliet to the top, and with beautiful melodies, catchy hooks, and deeper lyrics than many acts today are willing to write, Dear Juliet is certainly a band to look out for in 2008.

"Communal Blood" is a self-released single by the American instrumental band This Will Destroy You, and is the first single to be taken from their second album Tunnel Blanket. It was released for sale online, on 7" Vinyl on December 6, 2010, although copies were sold at live performances from May of the same year. The first, and currently only, pressing was limited to 500 copies on black, 50 on clear and 5 on pink.

Vinyl LP pressing. Moving On The Edges Of Things features two brand new, exclusive This Will Destroy You tracks that capture the band diving full-on into the abyss, shunning every trace of the Post-Rock tag and making a very clear musical statement that should effectively shun all Christians and other religious zealots from ever claiming the band as "theirs" again. This record literally sounds like your turntable eating itself while opening up a portal to hell, where the members of the band are all waiting to pull you down, stuff your mouth full of pills, and introduce you to the man downstairs.

逃跑计划 (Escape Plan) 首张专辑。

專輯名稱傳達了音樂工作者的基本態度, 對"夢想"與"美"不斷地追尋.
在廣闊的音樂大海裡, 我們快樂地浮潛著, 享受各種不同的音樂,
遇到屬於自己的繆思時, 開始深潛, 再深潛.
山高海深, 只有義無反顧與持之以恆的熱血, We Are Musicians.
產生創作之後, 由共同打拼的樂團夥伴一起編曲呈現.
蕭賀碩的創作由零到一, 冷笑話樂團團員們由一到無限.

「Musicians」這首歌的對象不局限在音樂工作者身上,
而是想傳達對"一輩子專著於一件事的人"的敬意.
農人, 舞蹈家, 科學家, 設計師, 廚師, 工匠...
在自己的領域專注鑽研, 為了分享更好的, 為了創作出前所未有的.
時代變化的快速讓所有人學著同時處理好幾件事物,
反而失去把事情做深入的契機,
希望藉著這首歌的一點幽默感, 提醒這樣美好的價值觀.

其他歌曲如「坐地鐵回家」則是平凡生活裡小人物的描寫,
"每個表情下都有故事, 和自己的人生, 此刻我們坐在一起, 坐地鐵回家".
當時坐在台北的捷運裡, 想著紐約的地鐵.
帶點奇妙的鄉愁, 也許是城市的溫度與笑容不太一樣吧,
那麼我想寫一首, 讓人坐在捷運裡也想微笑的歌.

還有對不同時期音樂影響的致敬, 從「天天想你」到「Let It Go」到「阿波狂想曲」,
關於土地的「大地的孩子」, 關於美麗的蘭嶼與無奈的核廢場「蘭嶼的藍」,
包裹著情歌糖衣講述著藍綠分化台灣人的「悲劇英雄」,
真正的情歌(笑)初次挑戰鐵琴彈奏的「大失眠」, 寫給自己的「34」,
開自己與美牛玩笑的「沙朗牛肉」,
這是一張有著冷碩式的幽默, 關懷, 不張牙舞爪卻內含光的音樂性作品,
找對的樂手, 錄真實的音軌, 原汁原味, 有機純粹.
河口到城市, 每天的流浪, 紐約台北, 各有餵養,
讓蕭賀碩在吸收, 感受, 整理, 沈澱後, 更確定要做的事,
離上一張「Stay」專輯四年,
讓這張「Musicians」專輯, 陪伴我們繼續踏上尋找繆思的道路,
方向對了, 什麼都不怕.

< 關於蕭賀碩與冷笑話樂團 >

數次造訪紐約的蕭賀碩以帶給大家"新意"做為一個音樂人的責任.
經由生活, 情感, 旅遊的體驗而產生的非常個人的故事,
以誠懇不說教的口吻, 試圖帶給大家新鮮的音樂聲響.
詞曲中流露出撫慰人心的溫度與關懷, 是以音樂懷抱這個世界的人生態度.

錄音技術上, 曾在華納國際音樂從製作助理一步步踏實走到製作人,
屬於孫燕姿, 蔡健雅, 張惠妹等等歌手製作團隊一員的蕭賀碩,
深知Sound Quality的重要性.
即使是獨立製作, 即使預算有限,
只要有好耳朵相信可以在有限的經費上做最充足的運用,
在大家越來越不注重錄音品質的今天, 一張CD仍不改它代表的歷史價值.
最初最陽春的錄音技術, 刻在唱盤上的那最多3分鐘的音軌,
深深影響著後代的我們,
即使數位錄音這麼方便, 有無限軟體與軌道可以運用,
最重要的是製作作品的我們的方法與態度.

在蕭賀碩與冷笑話樂團裡找到的共同特質~
我們都不抽煙, 我們都有不錯的學歷但最終選擇了音樂作為職業,
我們的平均年齡35歲, 不但在音樂上成熟, 也在演出中表達我們的價值觀,
“身為一個音樂人, 我們可以給社會大眾什麼！?”是我們共同思考的問題,
我們認真工作, 盡情演出, 功名隨緣.

蕭賀碩與冷笑話樂團成軍於2008年底,
至今作品有「Stay」專輯(2009年5月發行),
曾於女巫店, 海邊的卡夫卡, 高雄駁二, 台中Forro Cafe'等Live House演出,
2010 及2012 Simple Life簡單生活節演出,
我們相信音樂的力量, 相信理想與行動!
