Dot\u00e9 d\u2019un son cin\u00e9matographique et capable d\u2019exprimer une large palette d\u2019\u00e9motions, le groupe britannique Elbow s\u2019est fait conna\u00eetre du grand public gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 son premier album acclam\u00e9, Asleep in the Back, sorti en 2001. Depuis, le groupe n\u2019a cess\u00e9 de produire des albums populaires aux arrangements complexes et raffin\u00e9s.
Si leurs trois premiers disques ont suffi \u00e0 les imposer comme des figures majeures de la sc\u00e8ne britannique, c\u2019est leur quatri\u00e8me album, The Seldom Seen Kid (2008), qui les a v\u00e9ritablement consacr\u00e9s. Laur\u00e9at du prestigieux Mercury Prize, cet opus marque aussi un tournant dans leur carri\u00e8re, \u00e9tablissant un pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent pour leur d\u00e9marche d\u2019autoproduction.
Cette approche influencera leurs albums suivants, notamment Build a Rocket Boys! (2011) et The Take Off and Landing of Everything (2014), ce dernier devenant leur premier num\u00e9ro un au Royaume-Uni. En parall\u00e8le, Elbow r\u00e9colte plusieurs distinctions, dont des Brit Awards et des Ivor Novello Awards. Leur musique est \u00e9galement mise \u00e0 l\u2019honneur lors des Jeux olympiques de Londres en 2012, o\u00f9 le groupe se produit durant la c\u00e9r\u00e9monie de cl\u00f4ture.
Les albums Little Fictions (2017) et Giants of All Sizes (2019) atteignent eux aussi la premi\u00e8re place des classements britanniques. En 2021, Elbow sort Flying Dream 1, enregistr\u00e9 au Theatre Royal de Brighton, avant de revenir en 2024 avec Audio Vertigo, un album plus dynamique et orient\u00e9 vers les grooves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Boasting an cinematic sound and tapping into a wide range of emotions, British band Elbow rose to public consciousness with their acclaimed 2001 debut, Asleep in the Back and have continued to make similarly popular and intricately arranged albums ever since.
While their first three outings established them as significant players on the U.K. scene, it was their sprawling fourth LP, The Seldom Seen Kid, that cemented their status, winning the 2008 Mercury Prize and setting a precedent for the group’s self-production.
It would inform their approach on subsequent albums like 2011’s Build a Rocket Boys! and 2014’s The Take Off and Landing of Everything, the latter of which became their first U.K. chart-topper. Along the way, Elbow collected Brit and Ivor Novello awards, and their music was featured heavily in the 2012 London Olympic Games, where they performed during the closing ceremony.
Both 2017’s Little Fictions and 2019’s Giants of all Sizes reached number one in the U.K.. In 2021, they delivered Flying Dream 1, recorded at Brighton’s Theatre Royal, before returning in 2024 with the kinetic and groove-oriented Audio Vertigo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
