Crescent Lament 官方部落格　

揭露Crescent Lament 第二張專輯的故事：以臺灣早年藝妲生活為藍本的概念專輯！

Crescent Lament 新創作曲「尪仔面」，內容描述日治時代到國民政府來台初期，臺灣藝妲面對賣藝賣笑、送往迎來的人生，有著萬般不由自己的感慨。

「尪仔面」是臺灣閩南語用詞，含有兩種意義：用來指稱長得很好看的年輕男女，或者，也有「面具」的意思。「尪仔面」這首歌之歌名，即含有這兩種意義：藝妲們每天化妝將自己打扮的漂漂亮亮，也像頂著這張漂亮的「面具」，面對每個來往的客人。

Crescent Lament released the official MV of  “尪仔面(Masked Doll)”!

After releasing the debut album “Behind the Lethal Deceit” in 2011, Crescent Lament keeps on digging out the dark side of Taiwanese history, and integrates those miserable stories into our music. “Taiwan geisha” becomes the theme of our next project.

The story of our next conceptual album occurs in the mid-20^th century, when Taiwan was in an era of turmoil. Because of low social status, Taiwan geisha endured much more suffering than ordinary people. 

The above video clip – “尪仔面(Masked Doll)”, is the latest release of Crescent Lament. Written in Taiwanese, the lyrics describe that how a Taiwan geisha conceals her real feelings, and shows her smiles all the time emotionlessly.
