成立于2007年的 Crescent Lament (中文團名：恒月三途)，以歌德金屬樂風與臺灣 本土文化作為創作的基調，用音樂創造出深沉而華麗的闇黑唯美氣氛，刻畫出臺灣小人物的悲傷故事。Crescent Lament 希望在音樂上表現出人心陰暗面的沖擊張力，除了憤怒的嘶吼丶深沉的絕望丶還摻雜著一絲絲可悲的期望。這也是 Crescent Lament 團名的意境：在充斥著各種負面情緒的寂靜暗夜中，新月一抹微弱的光芒，竟成人心可抓住的最后一絲希望。 Crescent Lament 第一張專輯（英文專輯）【Behind the Lethal Deceit / 末路之召】于2011年11月發行，內容以反戰為核心，試圖與現今臺灣面臨的沖突結合，利用音樂反思訴諸武力的愚闇與和諧共存的無價。而在首張專輯發行后，Crescent Lament 決心讓創作更貼近臺灣本土文化，在歷經三年半的籌劃與制作，于2015年6月推出第二張專輯【花殤 / Elegy for the Blossoms】。概念專輯【花殤】以臺灣早年藝妲生活為藍本，描述日治時代到國民政府來臺初期，臺灣藝妲面對賣藝賣笑丶送往迎來的人生，有著萬般不由己的感慨；全專輯以臺語創作丶并加入臺日傳統民俗樂器，更道出臺灣的歷史記憶跟時代的滄桑改變。 ? 重大演出經歷： - 2008 野臺開唱 - 2009 歐洲名團 Lacrimosa 世界巡回演出 臺北場開場樂團 - 2009 臺灣名團 閃靈 世界巡回演出 臺北場開場樂團 - 2011 Crescent Lament 專輯【Behind the Lethal Deceit】首賣 全臺巡回 - 2012 韓國首爾金屬音樂祭 “Extreme camp vol. 2” 受邀樂團 - 2012 巨獸搖滾音樂祭 - 2013 歐洲名團 Epica 世界巡回演出 臺北場開場樂團 - 2013 貢寮海洋音樂祭 - 2013 野臺開唱 - 2013 巨獸搖滾音樂祭 - 2014 臺南五月音樂祭 - 2014 巨獸搖滾音樂祭 - 2015 大港開唱 ? 音樂發行： - 2008 EP【Crescent Lament】 - 2008 EP【The Forgotten Winter】 - 2011 專輯【Behind the Lethal Deceit / 末路之召】 - 2015 專輯【花殤 / Elegy for the Blossoms】 --------------------------------- ? Founded in 2007, Crescent Lament—a band that was specially mentioned and recommended by heavy metal band Chthonic’s leader Doris in an exclusive interview published by the magazine Terrorizer in 2011—is a gothic metal band of the island country of Taiwan in East Asia. By integrating sorrowful stories in Taiwan with gothic metal music, Crescent Lament presents to listeners aesthetic melodies with a touch of grief. With relentless efforts, their work is recognized by prominent artists. In 2009, the band opened Lacrimosa’s Sehnsucht world tour concert in Taiwan. Subsequently Crescent Lament was invited by Chthonic to open their world tour concert in Taipei. In Epica’s 2013 world tour, Crescent Lament served as the support band of Taipei concert. Crescent Lament released their debut album Behind the Lethal Deceit in November 2011. Inspired by the civil wars in the former Yugoslavia, Crescent Lament related the tragic history in the country to Taiwan. Sharing a similar historical context, Taiwan has seen ethnic conflicts and outside invaders, which offered an anti-war theme to the album. The band ingeniously borrowed the dark and sorrowful elements from gothic metal to depict the foolishness and vice of war. Behind the Lethal Deceit has drawn attention of international music critics and received applauses. In June 2015, Crescent Lament released their second album Elegy for the Blossoms. Elegy for the Blossoms is a conceptual album recounting the sorrowful story of a Taiwanese geisha that happened in the late Japanese period and early Chinese Nationalist Party period in Taiwan’s history. The main character, A-hiong, was developed based on the life of Taiwanese geishas in history, and the story describes the helplessness of Taiwanese geishas behind their smiles when greeting their clients, as they had no say over their own lives. Different from the first album Behind the Lethal Deceit, the latest album Elegy for the Blossoms was written in Taiwanese, and blends Taiwanese history, culture, folk music, and gothic metal, while using traditional Taiwanese and Japanese instruments to create a sorrowful yet beautiful atmosphere. The album cover was designed by well known Taiwanese illustrator KCN, with a modern retroactive image. ?
