【煽峰点火】第7期：垃圾回收站

标签：王小峰 王三表 乐评 点火 垃圾 乐队 后摇滚 ┊ 分类：音频 ┊ 推荐：

1995年，我知道有一支叫做“垃圾”（Garbage）的乐队，当时看到封面就喜欢上了。粉色的封面似乎总带点色情意味，也透露着一点性感，想像他们的音乐一定也很出色。后来一位日本朋友把这张专辑带给我，果然一听便爱不释手了。于是“垃圾”成了我期待听到下一张专辑的少数几支乐队之一。
我常常想像有这样的情景：几个人聚在一起，有人说：“我要听最前卫的唱片”；有人说：“我想听最时髦的”；有人说：“我想听好听的”；有人说：“我想听嗓音特酷的”；有人说：“我想在音乐中听到各种风格”；有人说：“我想听好听且另类的”……那好，你们都选择“垃圾”吧。不是有句广告这样说：××一到，众口不再难调吗？“垃圾”就是你这样的选择。

第一次听到“垃圾”时还根本不知道他们，看名字以为又是什么新新另类搞文字游戏，可当看到史蒂夫•马克（Steve Marker）、布奇•维格（Butch Vig）、杜克•埃里克森（Duke Erikson）这样的名字时，竟以为自己看花了眼，原来“垃圾堆”里藏着竟是这些金牌制作人。我在想，如果再加上那个史蒂夫•阿尔比尼（Steve Albini）的话，那真是无敌超级组合了。
“垃圾”是后摇滚的典型代表，也就是说，Grunge之后的摇滚特色，在“垃圾”的音乐中都能找到，他们兼收并蓄，既代表着过去，又代表着未来。对于这些掀动着90年代音乐潮流的幕后高手来说，“风格”一词对他们来说已没有什么意义了，他们所做的就是把他们的经验完美地表达出来。于是他们就做到了。
大概是鉴于头一张专辑成功的压力，或者是他们根本没有想过什么创新、突破，反正没有人能超过他们，所以这张专辑是在保证一定市场的前提下搞了一些小花活儿。最开始听，觉得它太悦耳、太时髦，但细细地听下来，才咀嚼出些许滋味来。

正如他们的名字：垃圾，这张Version 2.0就是一个垃圾回收站，《特别》（Special）的歌词借用了“冒牌货”（Pretenders）中的不少词句；《我想我是妄想狂》（I Think I'm Paranoid）参考了60年代美国的一首热门歌曲“Bend Me Shape Me”中的不少素材；专辑中最戏剧化的一首歌《窍门就是继续呼吸》（The Trick Is to Keep Breathing）旋律迷人、幽雅，出处来自凯特•布什（Kate Bush）1985年的歌曲《暴风雨》（Cloudbusting）；首支单曲《推它》（Push It）不仅借用了“椒盐”（Salt-N-Pepa）的一些素材，同时还捎带着用了点“海滨男孩”（the Beach Boys）的《宝贝别烦》（Don't Worry Baby）中的内容……这张专辑一共才几首歌？《诱惑等待》（Temptation Waits）是为一些热门集锦唱片准备的曲目，让你百听不厌；《窍门就是继续呼吸》懒散而又优美；《脑袋里的敲打声》（Hammering in My Head）带着催眠效果，把大提琴、小提琴和各种各样的噪音混合在一起；还有，在很多唱片里你都听不到的实验技巧，等等。但我最感兴趣的是，曼森的嗓音，理性中透着感性。

I'll give you all that I own. You got me standing in line Out in the cold, pay me some mind. Bend me, shape me Anyway you want me, Long as you love me, it's all right Bend me, shape me Anyway you want me, You got the power to turn on the light. Everybody tells me I'm wrong to want you so badly, But there's a force driving me on, I follow it gladly. So let them laugh I don't care, Cause I got nothing to hide, All that I want is you by my side. Bend me, shape me Anyway you want me, Long as you love me, it's all right Bend me, shape me Anyway you want me, You got the power to turn on the light. Bend me shape me anyway you want me (fade) —————————————————————————————— The Trick Is to Keep Breathing She's not the kind of girl Who likes to tell the world About the way she feels about herself She takes a little time in making up her mind She doesn't want to fight against the tide And lately I'm not the only one I say never trust anyone Always the one who has to drag her down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around Can't bear to face the truth So sick he cannot move And when it hurts he takes it out on you And lately I'm not the only one I say never trust anyone Always the one who has to drag her down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around The trick is to keep breathing (x2) She knows the human heart And how to read the stars Now everything's about to fall apart I won't be the one who's going to let you down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around I won't be the one who's going to let you down Maybe you'll get what you want this time around The trick is to keep breathing (x7) —————————————————————————————— Cloudbusting I still dream of Organon. I wake up crying. You're making rain And you're just in reach When you and sleep escape me You're like my yo-yo That glowed in the dark What made it special Made it dangerous So I bury it and forget. Everytime it rains, you're here in my head Like the sun coming out - Ooh I just know that something good is going to happen And I don't know when But just saying it could even make it happen. On top of the world Looking over the edge You could see them coming You looked too small In their big black car To be a threat to the men in power. I hid my yo-yo in the garden I can't hide you from the government Oh God, daddy - I won't forget Your son's coming out —————————————————————————————— Temptation Waits I'll tell you something I am a wolf but I like to wear sheep's clothing I am a bonfire I am a vampire I'm waiting for my moment Chorus: You come on like a drug I just can't get enough I'm like an addict coming at you for a little more And there's so much at stake I can't afford to waste I never needed anybody like this before I'll tell you something I am a demon Some say my biggest weakness I have my reasons Call it my defense Be careful what you're wishing Chorus You are a secret A new possession I like to keep you guessing Chorus When I'm not sure what I'm living for (When I'm not sure who I am) When I'm not sure what I'm looking for (When I'm not sure who I am) When I'm not sure what I'm living for (When I'm not sure who I am) When I'm not sure what I'm looking for (When I'm not sure who I am) When I'm not sure what I'm living for When I'm not sure what I'm looking for When I'm not sure what I'm living for —————————————————————————————— Hammering in My Head I'm stressed but you're freestyle I'm overworked but I'm undersexed I must be made of concrete I sign my name across your chest Give out the same old answers I trot them out for the relatives Company tried and tested I use the ones that I love the best Like an animal you're moving over me Like an animal you're moving over me When did I get perverted I can't remember your name I'm growing introverted You touch my hand and it's not the same This was so unexpected I never thought I'd get caught Play boomerang with your demons Shoot to kill and you'll pop them off BANG! BANG! Like an animal you're moving over me Like an animal you're moving over me You should be sleeping my love Tell me what you're dreaming of (all 4x) I knew you were mine for the taking I knew you were mine for the taking I knew you were mine for the taking When I walked in the room I knew you were mine for the taking I knew you were mine for the taking Your eyes light up When I walk in the room A hammering in my head don't stop From the bullet train From Tokyo to Los Angeles I'm leaving you behind A flash in the pan A storm in a teacup A needle in a haystack A prize for the winning A dead for the raising A catch for the chasing A jewel for the choosing A man for the making in this blistering heat Sweat it all out Sweat it all out With your bedroom eyes and your baby pouts Sweat it all out In our electric storms and our shifting sands Our candy jars and our sticky hands Sweat it all out (6x) Don't forget what I wrote you then And don't forget what I told you then And don't forget I that meant to win And don't forget your ventolin So a hammering in my head don't stop In the bullet train from Tokyo to Los Angeles

这就是后现代，后现代摇滚，后摇滚摇滚，人们更注重手法、技巧，像拼贴画一样进行一番荒诞、嫁接组合。也许你觉得这样的唱片听上去毫无意义，但是你错了，拼贴只是其中一部分，抑或说只是一种形式，他们真正要做出来的是这种躯壳下难以琢磨的怪诞音乐实验之魂。所以，我看到一些评论对这张新出炉的唱片挑肥拣瘦，其实，“垃圾”的初衷很简单，做一种几个人都感兴趣的音乐，至于别人怎么说，他们不在乎。有如此之经历的人，还会在乎什么呢？也许，只有涉世不多的雪莉•曼森（Shirley Manson）有些许压力。

所以，我们可以听听女主唱曼森那略带沙哑、神经质而又酷又性感的演唱，布奇•维格们眼睛真够“毒”的，只在MTV节目中听了曼森一次演唱，就把她从苏格兰挖到了美国，曼森的声音已成了“垃圾”的标志；你还可以听听这几个幕后制作人除了给那些另类制作晕头晕脑的噪音之外，他们真正感兴趣的是什么；你可以听听扭曲的、失真的吉他曲调，工业化的声响；你可以听听后摇滚时代的唱片制作中音响、音色处理，你可以听听“垃圾”是如何把传统流行音乐与电子乐、颤动的节奏、多种采样组合在一起，在曼森独一无二音色下形成的一种奇特效果。
这也许是1998年最好的专辑？整个专辑完美无暇，真正的垃圾回收。
