-- Gerard這次來台接受TAITEI TIMES的訪問，其中有個問題是「有樂評把你們歸類在EMO ROCK，你的看法如何？」先附上掛有中文字幕的影像檔 http://www.pixnet.net/photo/WPOP/80286519 懶得看影像的 XD，以下是影像中文字幕：因為我不喜歡別人用這種偷懶的方法，也就是把簡單的詞彙，套在不容易描述的東西上。我覺得很氣餒，因為我們根本不是Emo團，可是來找我們的正常表演卻不多。現在Emo音樂越來越紅，我們還跟基督教金屬樂團一起巡迴，只有那種樂團會…或是其他定位混淆的樂團，只有這種樂團會找我們表演，所以真的很氣餒。其實我們完全不是Emo團，我們是Emo團的相反，結果我們去參加Emo團的表演，反而變成怪胎，現場只有幾個人是來看我們，他們跟我們一樣穿黑色的衣服，就是這樣。我們不想打扮得邋邋遢遢，整天唱著跟女人有關的廢話。還有我希望大家知道，My Chemical Romance的音樂，跟現在所有的音樂類型都不同，我們的音樂非常特殊，而且我們可是拼了命才做出來的，所以把我們歸類為Emo團是種侮辱，他們沒有努力，他們沒有費心費力地，為自己跟歌迷做出特別的音樂，我們只為自己跟歌迷而唱，不是為任何人。歌迷眾多是很好，歌迷少我們還是一樣，我們只想提供安全的環境，讓自己跟歌迷能夠好好享受，所以我們這個樂團根本不是Emo團。人們總喜歡把兩者相提並論，但那是大錯特錯，我們跟他們的基礎不同，精髓也不同。 Emo沒有內涵也不特別，它只是流行龐克借屍還魂，可以說是塗上眼線的流行龐克吧，無聊又多餘，因為這樣我才覺得氣餒，剛開始我們確實非常辛苦，因為我們跟那些樂團不一樣。以下是訪問原文 RB: You really hate being called an "emo" band. Why do you despise that term so much? GW: I don't like any term that to me seems lazy or an easy term for something that's not easy to describe. I also think it's frustrating. We were so the opposite of the emo band that we couldn't get booked playing shows, because there was this budding emo scene, and we literally were touring with Christian-metal bands, or other bands that were very off-kilter as well. We were almost created in opposition to that. We were like the answer to what was happening. We didn't fit in with this dungareed, moppy-haired, whining-about-girl type of nonsense. I just wish people would realize that what happens with My Chemical Romance is completely exclusive from any other kind of genre of music. What we have is extremely special. And we've worked very hard to get it there. So it's an insulting term in the fact that we're lumped in with bands that didn't create that. They didn't put in the work and they didn't slug it out to create something that was unique for us and our fans. It's just for us and the fans, it's not for anybody else. If the fan base is huge, that's awesome. If it's small, same thing. The whole phenomena of the band has nothing to do with what people are calling emo. It's not at all like that. It wasn't founded on the same things. The blood that went into it was different. [Emo] didn't have the spit, it doesn't have the grit of it. It's not unique. It's just pop-punk all over again. Now it's pop-punk with eyeliner. All of it's boring and really redundant. That's why it's frustrating, because it was difficult for us starting out because we were nothing like that. 訪問全文 http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/feat/archives/2008/01/31/2003399701 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.140.225.93
