''Away from the World'' is the eighth studio album by Dave Matthews Band (DMB), released on September 11, 2012.〔http://davematthewsband.shop.musictoday.com/content/mlp/1/default.aspx〕 The album is their first since 2009's ''Big Whiskey & the GrooGrux King.'' The album's title comes from a line in the song "The Riff": "Sitting in a box / away from the world out there." According to Matthews, it relates to the dour idea that we are born and die alone and that "our body is our box." ==Recording== Steve Lillywhite produced ''Away from the World,'' which marks his first released studio album with the band since 1998's ''Before These Crowded Streets''. A series of failed sessions with Lillywhite led to the leaked ''Lillywhite Sessions'' in 2000 and Lillywhite's departure from the band's work. DMB and Lillywhite recorded the album in a Seattle studio beginning in early January 2012, and production on the album finished in May. In addition to the 11 songs that made the album, one other song was attempted during the sessions, but the band did not complete that song. Violinist Boyd Tinsley said of the process: "Some of the songs that you hear on this album, the basic tracks came out, like, the first or second time we played them. Dave would come in with part of a song. We’d get into the control room and we’d finish it, putting in a chorus or bridge here and working out arrangements. And then we went to the studio, and we just played."

Dave Matthews debuted the lead single "Mercy" on ''Late Night with Jimmy Fallon'' on April 24, and DMB released the studio version in July. The band also released the studio version of "Gaucho" in May. Those songs, in addition to "Sweet," "If Only," "The Riff," "Rooftop," "Snow Outside," and "Belly Belly Nice," were all performed during DMB's 2012 summer tour. As part of the promotion in the week leading up to the release of ''Away From The World'', iTunes streamed the complete album for free beginning on September 4, 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Away from the World」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
