乐评
斯蒂芬·维蒂洛与布伦丹·坎蒂的合作看似出人意料。维蒂洛是弗吉尼亚联邦大学的学者，以富有哲思、缓慢演进的声音艺术闻名；坎蒂曾在“法加齐”乐队及如今的“梅斯特hetics”乐队中展现过极具推进力与爆发力的鼓点。融合这两种截然不同的风格，显然面临着无既定路径可循的挑战。
第三位音乐人哈恩·罗——除了曾在“雨果·拉戈”乐队演奏外，还兼具多乐器演奏才华，并曾作为乐手与格伦·布兰卡、JG·瑟尔韦尔等先锋艺术家合作。自1998年维蒂洛的《坠落汽车的光芒》起，罗便参与其作品，此次他充分展现了如何在维蒂洛细腻的音色与创作路径上延伸拓展的深刻理解。他成功将这几位个性鲜明的创作者的不同风格融合，使《第二》成为独特且连贯的整体。
三人组最初于2023年合作了单曲《第一》（一首长曲目），而这张全长专辑则通过八首曲目突出不同面向。《Mrphgtrs1》和《最后一分钟的吉他》前半段最贴近维蒂洛的典型风格，以纹理化音效为主导，无鼓点元素。《#6》和《新预置吉他》中，坎蒂的节奏感鼓点与他在其他项目中的风格契合，引领其他乐器，而维蒂洛的音景则隐于背景。
然而，《第二》的大部分曲目促使所有人跳出舒适区，探索全新创作空间。《节奏性罗德电钢琴》带有类似dub音乐的节奏，军鼓后拖着悠长的混响尾音，前景中萦绕着持续音。罗的小提琴以节奏性的旋律穿梭其间，与维蒂洛的延音部分交织融合。《Rasun112》模糊了音色与节奏的界限，强调整体编曲而非个体演奏。
尽管许多专辑尝试融合乐器演奏技巧与电子处理，但《第二》凭借对两种手法的精湛驾驭脱颖而出。© 史蒂夫·西尔弗斯坦

Review
A collaboration between Stephen Vitiello and Brendan Canty feels unexpected. Vitiello, an academic who teaches at Virginia Commonwealth University, is known for his cerebral, slowly-evolving sound art. In Fugazi and now the Messthetics, Canty has provided propulsive and powerful drumming. Melding these two incongruous approaches presents obvious challenges without any predictable path.
A third musician, Hahn Rowe—who, in addition to having played in Hugo Largo brings multi-instrumental talent and experience as a sideman with iconoclasts like Glenn Branca and JG Thirlwell. Rowe, who has contributed to Vitiello's work since 1998's The Light of Falling Cars, demonstrates a deep understanding of how to build on and extend his careful palette and approach. He successfully unites these strong creative personalities' disparate approaches to shape Second into a unique, coherent whole.
The trio initially collaborated in 2023 on "First," a single extended piece; this full length provides space to emphasize different aspects across its eight tracks. "Mrphgtrs1" and the first half of "Last Minute Guitar" hew closest to Vitiello's typical approach, with textures in the foreground and a lack of drums. On "#6" and "New Prepared Guitar," Canty plays driving beats that would fit in his other projects. His playing leads the other instruments, with Vitiello's soundscapes submerged in the background.
Much of Second, though, pulls everyone out of their comfort zones as they explore this new space. "Rhythmic Rhodes" has a dub-like beat, a long reverberant tail behind the snare drum and drones in the foreground. Rowe's violin unites the piece by dancing rhythmically around, and weaving itself into, Vitiello's sustaining parts. "Rasun112" blurs the line between texture and rhythm, and emphasizes the composition over the individual musicians' performances.
While many albums blend instrumental dexterity and electronic processing, Second stands out thanks to the deeply-honed skill in both approaches. © Steve Silverstein
