Foxboro Hot Tubs

小

Foxboro Hot Tubs是谁？没听过啊！但别告诉我你连大名鼎鼎的Green Day都没听过！这张以“Foxboro Hot Tubs”的名义发表，叫做《Stop Drop And Roll》的专辑其实就是已经4年多没有新专辑消息的美国著名朋克摇滚乐团Green Day的作品。Green Day凭借上一张风靡全球的大热专辑《American Idiot》（《美国白痴》）获得了无数奖项也为自己积累了相当的人气，全球歌迷都在翘首期盼他们的新专辑，然而却迟迟没有消息。之前在一个叫“Foxboro Hot Tubs”的乐团的歌曲中，有很多人都听出了好像Armstrong的声音。也是就在最近，Green Day承认了这个叫“Foxboro Hot Tubs”的乐队其实就是Green Day他们自己。这张专辑就是以“Foxboro Hot Tubs”的名义发行的新专辑，曲风虽然不像《American Idiot》那么朋克，但还是精彩依旧，只是愁坏了要发行这张专辑的商家们——如果不把巨星的大名挂在专辑封面上，还会有很多人注意到它并且大卖吗？不过如果真的是Green Day的fans的话，偶像“改个名”是不会瞒住他们的

The Foxboro Hot Tubs made their inconspicuous debut in December 2007, when three songs were posted on the band's website. While the Hot Tubs' identity was kept secret, several influential bloggers and news outlets claimed the group was actually a side project for all three members of Green Day, who had recently retreated from the public eye to work on their American Idiot follow-up. Such rumors had yet to be confirmed when a track from the band's Stop Drop and Roll EP, "Mother Mary," entered the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks charts and climbed to number 16. Whoever the Foxboro Hot Tubs were, their tuneful take on garage rock (equally indebted to the Stooges, the Hives, and Tommy James) proved to be quite popular, and fans awaited the release of the group's full-length debut. Stop Drop and Roll!!! was made available in MP3 format in April 2008, with a proper release following in May.
