翻譯自Kerrang! June,2006 (翻的有些彆腳有錯請告訴我) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ KOOL THING, SONIC YOUTH Sonic Youth were the beginning for me. The whole “Goo” album changed my life because before it, I was unaware of all the possibilities of guitar music. They had the ultimate punk attitude towards the guitar, they threw the rulebook away and made the guitar work for them. They also showed me the beauty of atonal chords and dissonance. They opened up a whole new world to me. KOOL THING (SONIC YOUTH) 音速青春對我來是一切的開始。整張"Goo"專輯改變了我的人生，因為在那之前我從未意識到吉他音樂的潛在可能性。對於吉他始終抱持著龐克態度，音速青春拋棄了原則徹底駕馭了吉他。他們也讓我了解無調性和弦及不和諧的美好，為我開啟了一個全新的世界。收錄於 : Goo, 1990 RIVER EUPHRATES, PIXIES I was 16 and growing up in Luxembourg when I first heard this. I had never heard a voice like Black Francis’ before. He was this rotund young man singing like a castrado, it was so unexpected. I was instantly fascinated and went straight out and bought “Surfer Rosa”. The Pixies remain so significant to Placebo to this day – we covered “Where Is My Mind?” and Frank Black joined us onstage once, which was a hell of a moment. RIVER EUPHRATES (PIXIES) 我在盧森堡長大，我16歲時第一次聽到這首歌。以往從未聽過有像Black Francis這樣的歌聲。這個胖胖的年輕人唱起歌來出乎意料像是被閹割(castrado)了一樣。我立刻就迷上了並且直接買了”Surfer Rosa(1988)”這張專輯。時日今日，小妖精對Placebo來說依舊是最有意義的，我們翻唱了“Where Is My Mind?”而Frank Black就和我們一起在舞台上表演，那還真是極為愉快的時刻。收錄於 : Surfer Rosa, 1988 HOLIDAY IN CAMBODIA, DEAD KENNEDYS I was obsessed with the Dead Kennedys when I was 13. I was developing as a political being at that time, I guess. Because I lived in Luxembourg, my access to music was very jumbled up and I didn’t discover punk through the English bands, as you’re supposed to. I discovered the really political, anti-Reagan, American Punk. Jello Biafra’s lyrics really appealed to my anti-establishment nature. They are stil my favourite punk band. HOLIDAY IN CAMBODIA (DEAD KENNEDYS) 沉迷於死亡甘迺迪時我只有13歲。我想我應該是在那時逐漸變成對政治有興趣的人吧！因為我住在盧森堡，我接觸音樂的門路很混亂，而且我不會挖英國的龐克團來聽，這是理所當然的。我發現了真正帶著政治色彩的、反雷根式(anti-Reagan)的美式龐克， Jello Biafra的歌詞確實引發了我反權威(anti-establishment)的天性。死亡甘迺迪現在仍是我最喜愛的龐克團。收錄於 : Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables, 1980 SHEELA-NA-GIG, PJ HARVEY Steve[Hewitt, drums] introduced me to PJ Harvey when we were at university. Her songwriting instantly became a big influence on me. I was struck by how individual her voice was and then by how taut and nervous the instrumentation was. It was so expressive of internal torment, desire, lust and rejection. She’s always been very brave, she’s not afraid to make a record that sounds like someone bleeding on you. SHEELA-NA-GIG (PJ HARVEY) Steve Hewitt大學時介紹PJ Harvey給我聽。她的詞曲立刻就對我產生了偌大的影響，我對她極具個人風格的聲音、還有充滿緊繃張力的樂器演奏感到相當震驚。那些內心的苦痛折磨、強烈的慾望、渴求以及遭受摒棄的排斥是多麼的意味深長，PJ Harvey一直以來都非常勇敢，從不害怕讓她的作品聽起來令人感到淌血。收錄於 : Dry, 1992 (續) -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.139.97.14
