Lil' Beethoven Deluxe Edition (Album) by Sparks

Biografia dell'artista Sparks

Sparks Is An American Rock And Pop Music Band Formed In Los Angeles In 1970 By Brothers Ron Keyboards And Russell Mael Vocals Initially Under The Name Halfnelson. Best Known For Their Quirky Approach To Song Writing Sparks' Music Is Often Accompanied By Cutting And Acerbic Lyrics And An Idiosyncratic Stage Presence Typified In The Contrast Between Russell's Wide-Eyed Hyperactive Frontman Antics And Ron's Sedentary Scowling. The Band's Long Career Has Seen Them Successfully Adopt Many Different Musical Genres Including Glam Pop Power Pop Electronic Dance Music Mainstream Pop And Most Recently Chamber Pop. And They Have Enjoyed A Cult Following Since Their First Releases. Sparks Have Been Highly Influential On The Development Of Popular Music In Particular On The Late 1970s Scene When In Collaboration With Giorgio Moroder And Telex Subsequently They Reinvented Themselves As An Electronic Pop Duo And Abandoned The Traditional Rock Band Line Up. In Contrast To The Esteem In Which They Are Held By Such Peers As Depeche Mode New Order Morrissey Mark Burgess Of The Chameleons UK And They Might Be Giants Who All Cite Sparks As A Major Influence Their Almost Constantly Changing Styles And Visual Presentations Have Sometimes Seen Them Dismissed As A Novelty Act. The 2002 Release Of Lil' Beethoven Their Self-Described "genre-Defying Opus" As Well As The More Recent Albums Hello Young Lovers 2006 Their 20th Studio Album And Exotic Creatures Of The Deep 2008 Have Brought Sparks Renewed Critical And Commercial Success And Seen Them Continue To "steer Clear Of Pop Conventions."
