官方介紹
Dan Smith 將團名取為 Bastille 有兩個原因,一個是碰巧自己的生日(*7月14日)就是法國國慶日-「Bastille Day」,另一個原因是這個紀念吹響法國大革命號角的巴黎人民攻佔巴士底監獄歷史事件的背後所象徵的革命與改變的精神
一種將獨立搖滾樂,電子搖滾,流行樂,民謠,節奏藍調,嘻哈等類型音樂進行創意大撞擊的復古時尚新品種搖滾樂!

下面這首是該樂團於 2011年6月發行的首支單曲(也是英國電視劇 Made in Chelsea 的插曲)…
知道 伊卡洛斯 的故事的話,應該就知道這名字所代表的意義…

Icarus 伊卡洛斯 - Bastille
Ooh 喔
Look who's digging their own grave 看誰在自掘墳墓
That is what they all say 這就是他們所說的
You'll drink yourself to death 自尋死路(喝到死)
Look who makes their own bed 看誰在鋪他們自己的床
Lies right down within it 然後就躺在裡面
And what will you have left? 而你留下了什麼
Out on the front doorstep 就在前門外
Drinking from a paper cup 拿著一個紙杯喝
You won't remember this 你不會記得的
Living beyond your years 你只能活這麼久
Acting out all their fears 他表現出自己的恐懼
You feel it in your chest 你能感覺到它在你的胸口
Your hands protect the flames 你的手保護著火焰
From the wild winds around you 從你身邊的狂風裡
Icarus is flying too close to the sun 伊卡洛斯飛得太靠近太陽
Icarus's life, it has only just begun 伊卡洛斯的生命,才剛剛開始
It's just begun 才剛剛開始
Standing on the cliff face 站在懸崖邊
Highest foe you'll ever grace 你所能想像的最高的敵人
It scares me half to death 他把我嚇得半死
Look out to the future 展望未來
But it tells you nothing 但是它什麼都沒告訴你
So take another breath 所以,深呼吸
Your hands protect the flames 你的手保護著火焰
From the wild winds around you 從你身邊的狂風裡
Icarus is flying too close to the sun 伊卡洛斯飛得太靠近太陽
Icarus's life, it has only just begun 伊卡洛斯的生命,才剛剛開始
This is how it feels to take a fall 這就是墜落的感覺
Icarus is flying towards an early grave 伊卡洛斯飛向一個早產的墳墓
You put up your defenses when you leave 當你離開時你做好了防護
You leave because you're certain 你離開是因為你確定了
Of who you want to be 自己想成為哪種人
You're putting up your armor when you leave 當你離開時你穿上了你的盔甲
You leave because you're certain 你離開是因為你確定了
Of who you want to be 自己想成為哪種人
Icarus is flying too close to the sun 伊卡洛斯飛得太靠近太陽
Icarus's life, it has only just begun 伊卡洛斯的生命,才剛剛開始
This is how it feels to take a fall 這就是墜落的感覺
Icarus is flying towards an early grave 伊卡洛斯飛向一個早產的墳墓
