往往習慣為了保護自己而隱藏起來 卻否定了釋放自己是一個最好的選擇 所以這一次佛跳牆不只要唱給你聽 還要把更多色彩給你看！！！ 我們往往習慣為了保護自己而隱藏起來 卻否定了釋放自己是一個最好的選擇 佛跳牆 Buddha Jump 在2011年是由主唱阿妮、鼓手千千、鍵盤手牙牙、吉他手理事長、吉他手豪豪、貝斯手奧迪，6位團員所組成。同年發行了第一張同名專輯【佛跳牆 Buddha Jump】，專輯推出後，因鼓手千千高唱從軍樂、團員們各自成家立業，在沉寂一年多後，於2012年底推出了EP【WHO U R】。時隔三年，6位團員終於再次聚首，繼續秉持著玩音樂態度，在沒有限制，完全自由的狀態下，完成了第二張專輯【給你看】。 第二張專輯【讓你看】10首詞曲都由主唱阿妮創作，編曲和製作則是佛跳牆不定時會召集練團、開會，大家在錄音室裡一起Jam出來的，這次專輯的創作視角和力度幾乎都專注在環境與自身的拉扯之中，希望透過更多不同的創作內容、有律動的節奏與喜歡佛跳牆的朋友們有更多的互動。 這一次佛跳牆不只要給你聽 還要給你看！！！ 整張專輯的風格，有別於上一張專輯較暗黑、搖滾，反而呈現前所未有的跳躍感，曲風融入了80、90年代的funky、disco，不再張牙舞爪，而是呈現一種微成熟，團員們都笑說：「可能是大家都邁入30大關吧！」。所以這次專輯的曲風和視覺都由單一、黑暗，轉向為多元、色彩，要給樂迷不只聽的享受，在視覺上更要讓大家為之驚艷！ 這次的專輯封面與造型，為了搭配專輯中的復古曲風，6位團員特別利用90年代，人人為之瘋狂的「3D球員卡」光柵效果的方式來呈現，希望帶著大家一起重回那個年代。從第一張黑白色系「混雜重疊面孔」的專輯封面，到這次彩色「3D」的專輯封面，與用復古造型呈現的宣傳短片等巧思，都只是為了讓音樂創作增添更多直接的視覺。所以不需要再揣測、懷疑、否定些什麼！就讓佛跳牆的音樂，帶著你對他們既有印象的同時，盡情的享受他們的另一面，因為這樣…佛跳牆才完整！！！ 佛跳牆烹製程序嚴格，歷經三年精心熬製而成 再次出輯，隆重獻禮，為粉絲端出心血結晶
