Uaral這個名字早在他們成立樂隊之前的多年即存在他們的心中. 名字的 起源來自於他們親身經歷的小故事： Aciago和Caudal 年少的時候曾在一座山上迷路，他們從山中茫然地走下到了一個蘋果園中，發現了一條捷徑. 而在那裡，他們碰到了一位懷抱著一具巴洛克式吉他的老人，在吉他上刺銹著老人的名字----Uaral. 這位飽經滄桑，深蘊世事，睿智而孤獨的老人與兩個少年亦師亦友，在他們的交往中，這位老人用他的詩，他的吉它，他的歌使他們洞悉了人生，使他們看到了被掩蓋的人的本性. 用Aciago和Caudal自己的話來說，Uaral showed us the pain made family...the pain made m usic...for us Uaral is the life.uaral

碟評介紹
專輯名稱：《Sounds of Pain》
來自智利的厄運民謠樂隊uaral 所創作的Sounds of Pain是我近段時期最喜歡的一張厄運專輯。這是一張描寫家庭、描寫音樂、描寫生活的一張作品，它並不極端也並不陰暗。在這裡不難體會到流放與苦行僧的生活。細細體味他們，你只能感覺到孤獨、掙扎、痛苦、悲憐、命運還有堅韌的追求，這是一張可以在痛苦中淨化心靈的作品。或許在追求浮華物質的快節奏生活所充滿的欲望、野性的生活狀態中，這些僅存的悲悽痛苦才是最彌足珍貴的。sounds of pain
01.Lost 雨點聲伴隨著哀號將我們帶入這個痛苦而又絕望的世界。
02.Surrendered to the decadence 這首更應該算為一首器樂曲，原聲箱琴與長笛是這首歌曲的骨架，Caudal的演唱只是為了烘托Aciago的演奏，他的嗓音低沉而又憂鬱，悲傷且痛苦著，孤獨的感覺油然而生。
03.Eternal Beauty of the trees... 鍵盤起到烘托氣氛的感覺。詞曲分為上下兩個段落，似乎是三種音樂類型的結合，氛圍黑金、死亡與斯堪的納維亞。按照常理要融合這幾種類型似乎是並不可能完成的，但是這首作品中將他有機的結合，整體和諧，並沒有衝突。
04.Sounds of Pain 長達19分19秒，是整張專輯的主打歌曲，民謠味十足，這裡不得不讓我想起德國的一支森林民謠金屬、厄運樂隊Empyrium，同上曲一樣，創作者也有意給分成4個段落還刻意在間斷之處加上一些採樣，或許這是他們將信息傳播給聽眾的一種手段。和諧、平緩的伴奏加之痛苦的聲音令人在細細品味之間更多一份遐想······毫無疑問在這裡Aciago仍占有主導地位的，箱琴的連復段是一大特色，正是他那樸素而又充滿活力的演奏將歌曲在平緩中趨向高潮。震徹心扉。
Over hostile times and fruitless experiences in the horizon,rough episodes were registered in our bodies. By the year 1996,Aciago and Caudal,relatives and friends,walked through different paths but both carrying the piece of a family sentenced to live under the repression,the toil and the labour of the field; subsequently,they were fated to love the land which provides their home with sorrow and hope. In fact by those years,in all familiar night falls,you could see that musical ideas were brought up,though they were never brought to an end because to oblige restrained feelings to give body is a matter of time.
In 1997,immersed in the solitude of the mountain range,the wine straight in wisdom covered the night with his lineage under the inert gaze of trees and sky,and the moist fire wood lighted and brightened Potrero Grande river who was drowned in beautiful desolation. Just a faint harmony could satisfy the wind who caressed his sonancy. It was a night of poetry and music where Uaral plastered their veins departing a way of natural comfort to the need of expressing feelings,whom Aciago and Caudal would resort to. As an option,to make immortal musical registers,it was recorded a demonstration for fellows,and it was given the name of “Potrero Grande” and “Surrendered to the Decadence” but a called introduction “Bruma”.
In those gaits,The Niches roads were bloodstained with the end of a relative life. Nobody will forget that day when Uaral plastered his agony with instrumental melancholy on the delicate coffin and gladden the air with all the desolation that covered the room. Those were difficult times full of losses and misfortunes that marked Uaral: as a mirror,mourning,personified in compositions,reflected the pain of a land full of everlasting silence. Thus,without reaching an agreement,new symphonies emerged without resignation.
Uaral guided the traces of members' thoughts leaving in all bands a poem and a chord. In this way,the musical agonies around the wintry downpours and nights of shining blazes advanced through the years in The Niches and Cordillerilla. They were reflected in every tear of the brook. Throughout the seasons is coming the amazement of the breathings of those who were ripening Uaral. For that reason,it is decided for a second time to capture a register: a new one,its name From The Agony To The Hopelessness,that wandered along tree stages and an overture. In 2003,it was handed over an anonym musical register to a selected group of friends that walked sharing the ideologies and the expressions that Uaral gave out. OMG listened to this by accidents of destiny,contacted them,and proposed an interesting project to record the register. They both,OMG and the guys -Aciago and Caudal- agreed on meeting to expose their needs. There,they explained the real meaning of Uaral music ex! pressions and ideologies,and that they did not want an overexposure of them. OMG understood that everything is mainly to protect Uaral's interests,and finally they entered the studio.
After washing the dishes in the kitchen of The Niches,Aciago's and Caudal's grandmother dried her hands and proudly gave her chant to her lads. She registered the most sincere expression of her feelings,which was used as a prologue in “La Vaga Esperanza Del Ser”，a song of admirable beauty inspired by the aerial caress of childhood.
From all the sorrows that came from feeling decadence,it was achieved a final expression rich of worldly grief,familiar proximity,and hopeless agony: it was achieved Sounds Of Pain...
