===============================================
De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas (1991–1994)
Dead's suicide affected Necrobutcher so much that he left Mayhem,
thinning the band's ranks down to two. In 1993, Live in Leipzig
was released as the band's tribute to Dead.
Dead的自杀影响Necrobutcher甚剧,导致他後来离开Mayhem,也使得乐团
水准下降。1993年,乐团发表在莱比锡*举行的Live专辑来纪念Dead。
*德国东部第二大都市
Later that year, the recording of Mayhem's upcoming album,
De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas resumed. In Dead's and Necrobutcher's absences,
Attila Csihar of Tormentor handled vocals, and Varg Vikernes of Burzum
handled bass guitar. Due to adverse media and police attention,
Euronymous was forced around this time to close his scene focal
point record shop Helvete.
当年纪念演唱会结束後,Mayhem继续他们未完的专辑De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas。
少了Dead及Necrobutcher,乐团找来Tormentor的Attila Csihar担任主唱,
Burzum的Varg Vikernes担任贝斯。由於媒体的挞伐,再加上被条子盯上,
那时候Euronymous被逼的要关闭他全心投入的唱片行Helvete。
On 10 August 1993, Varg Vikernes murdered guitarist Euronymous.
On that night, Vikernes and Snorre Ruch travelled from Bergen to
Euronymous’s apartment in Oslo. Upon their arrival a confrontation
began, which ended when Vikernes fatally stabbed Euronymous.
His body was found outside the apartment with twenty-three cut wounds
– two to the head, five to the neck, and sixteen to the back.
1993年8月10号,Varg Vikernes谋杀Euronymous。那天晚上,Vikernes和
Snorre Ruch从卑尔根*来到位在奥斯陆Euronymous的公寓;之後他们起了争执,
导致最後Vikernes意外杀死Euronymous。他的屍体在公寓外面被发现,身上
有23处刀伤,2刀在头部,颈部5刀及背部有16刀。
*挪威第二大都市
It has been speculated that the murder was the result of a power
struggle, a financial dispute over Burzum records,** or an attempt
at "out doing" the stabbing in Lillehammer.
谋杀的动机推测是与Burzum唱片公司有财务权利纠纷,或是企图在
勒哈默尔*刺杀他。
*挪威的都市,1994年举行冬季奥运
**这句翻译可能有谬误
Vikernes claims that Euronymous had plotted to torture him to
death and videotape the event – using a meeting about an
unsigned contract as a pretext.
Vikernes对外宣称Euronymous利用”讨论一只未签署的合约”为藉口,
密谋要折磨他到死,并且把这个过程录影下来。
On the night of the murder, Vikernes claims he intended to hand
Euronymous the signed contract and "tell him to fuck off", but
that Euronymous attacked him first.
当天晚上谋杀事件发生的时候,Vikernes说他要把合约还给Euronymous,
并对他说”你他妈的给我滚!!”,但是Euronymous先出手攻击他。
Additionally, Vikernes defends that most of Euronymous’s cut
wounds were caused by broken glass he had fallen on
during the struggle.
此外,Vikernes为自己辩解说Euronymous的刀伤大部分是因为争执
的过程中,他们打破玻璃杯,他自己跌倒所造成的。
Regardless of the circumstances, Vikernes was arrested within
days, and a few months later was sentenced to 21 years in prison
for both the murder and church arsons.
不管什麽原因造成此事件,Vikernes几天後被警方逮捕,且在几个月之
後就因为谋杀罪及在教堂纵火被判21年的牢狱。(直到今天他仍在蹲。)
With only Hellhammer remaining, Mayhem effectively ceased to exist.
只剩下Hellhammer的Mayhem形同消失。
In 1994, De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas was released and formally
dedicated to Euronymous. Its release had been delayed due to
complaints filed by Euronymous' parents, who had objected to
the presence of bass guitar parts played by Vikernes.
1994年,De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas专辑发售,并纪念Euronymous。
专辑延迟发售的原因来自Euronymous的父母,他们抗议专辑内Bass的
部份是由Vikernes演出。
*Contrary to contemporary reports these were not re-recorded
by Hellhammer and appear unblemished.
相反地,Hellhammer并没有因为当时的抗议从新录制这张专辑,
且几乎完美。
*这句翻译可能与原意有出入
With Maniac and Blasphemer (1995–2004)
By late 1995 Hellhammer had decided to reform the band with
the help of new guitarist Rune Eriksen (aka Blasphemer) and
two previous Mayhem members - Maniac and Necrobutcher.
1995年尾,Hellhammer得到新吉他手Rune Eriksen (aka Blasphemer)
及两名前Mayhem成员,Maniac及Necrobutcher,的帮助,决定重组Mayhem。
The first release of this new lineup was a 1997 EP
titled Wolf's Lair Abyss, and was followed by some live
European shows. One of these took place in Milan, Italy,
guest starring Attila Csihar, and was recorded for the
Mediolanum Capta Est live album of that year.
新的乐团组合於1997年发表第一张EP “Wolf's Lair Abyss”,且在一
些欧洲的live演唱会中演出。当年在义大利米兰的演出中,
Attila Csihar客串演出,并且录制了live专辑Mediolanum Capta Est。
There has been controversy about the re-united Mayhem, as some
praise this re-union and are glad that the focus now rather
lies on the music, whereas others see this as a purely
commercial product betraying the spirit of black metal
or “believe that the true Mayhem are dead with Euronymous”
and critisize the continuation of the band without him,
who had once said Mayhem would “never get commercial”
he would dissolve the band if it would enter mainstream.
关於Mayhem的重组存在着一些争议;某些人赞扬这次的重组,
并为他们把焦点放在音乐上感到高兴;其他人则是认为,新专辑彻
底商业化背叛了黑金属的精神,或认为,
「真正的Mayhem随着Euronymous的死亡一起消逝」,并批判在没有
Euronymous的状况下延续乐团;
他曾经说过︰「Mayhem绝对不会商业化,如果Mayhem加入主流
只会让乐团分解。」
In this new phase, racist statements made by Hellhammer
(who spoke out against race mixing and foreigners in Norway)
and the use of nazi imagery such as swastika flags in the
rehearsal room, the Totenkopf emblem and band merchandise
featuring the symbol of the military branch of Nasjonal Samling
led to controversy and accusations of Neo-Nazism.
这个时候Hellhammer发表了一份种族主义声明,他反对种族融合以及
在挪威的外国人,他使用了一些纳粹主义的标志,例如在录音室里面
挂卍字旗,骷髅总队*的符号及有法西斯国际联盟军队标记的乐团促销
商品导致争议及被指控是新纳粹主义者。
*二战期间从事灭绝破坏活动的纳粹组织,泛指纳粹集中营或是党卫队。
In 2000 the band's second full-length CD, Grand Declaration of War,
was released. Strongly influenced by progressive and avant-garde
metal, the album was concept-based, dealing with themes of war
and post-apocalyptic destruction.
2000年乐团发表了第二张专辑Grand Declaration of War。
此张专辑强烈的受到前卫金属的影响,其基本概念是战争及毁灭後的世界。
Maniac largely abandoned the traditional black metal
rasp for dramatic spoken-word monologue, with most of
the songs sequencing seamlessly into one another.*
Maniac基本上放弃传统黑金属充满戏剧性又长篇大论的用语,
而采用一般歌曲的演奏方式完整的带到另种层次。
*可能与原意有出入
Reaction to the album was polarized. Some criticised the album
for its avant-garde and electronic elements, which they
perceived as pretentious, and for Maniac's vocals, which
they perceived as inferior to Dead's and Attila's.
专辑的反应相当极端。一些人批评专辑中的前卫及电子的元素,
显得很矫饰做作;而对於Maniac的唱腔,水准低於Dead及Attila。
Others saw it as a laudable attempt to recreate and redefine
black metal, with critic Brian Russ of BNR Metal going so far
as to call it "really the first cohesive work the band has ever done"
and "a fitting culmination to their career thus far."
其他人则称赞他们尝试创造及重新定义黑金属,BNR Metal网站的
评论家Brian Russ甚至称这张专辑是”真正此乐团第一张有凝聚力的专辑”
及”目前为止他们音乐生涯最佳作品”。
In retrospect, the electronic elements of the album were often
heavily overstated by its detractors, appearing notably in only
a single track, "A Bloodsword and a Colder Sun."
It should also be noted that from Wolf's Lair Abyss up
to the present, Blasphemer has written all of the music
for Mayhem's releases. Maniac wrote the lyrics from the
reformation of the band until his departure in 2004.
回顾这段时间,电音元素经常被批评者拿出来大做文章,
特别是A Bloodsword and a Colder Sun这首单曲。
另一点值得注意的是从Wolf's Lair Abyss开始到现在,
所有Mayhem发行的曲都是由Blasphemer所谱。Maniac则是负责写词,
从乐团重组到2004年他离开为止。
In May 2003, Mayhem made headlines again when a Mayhem fan,
Per Kristian Hagen, landed in the hospital with a fractured
skull after being hit by a severed sheep's head that had flown
into the audience from the stage. Assault charges were filed,
but the band considered it to have been entirely accidental.
2003年5月,Mayhem再度登上头条;一位名叫Per Kristian Hagen的乐迷
因为骨折被送往医院治疗,原因是被断掉的羊头砸到从舞台上
摔到观众群里。乐团因此依伤害罪起诉,但乐团认为这完全是一场意外。
In 2004, Mayhem released Chimera. It showed a return to their
earlier raw and brutal style, but with considerably better
production values than earlier releases.
2004年Mayhem发行专辑Chimera。这张专辑又回到早期粗暴的风格,
但比起之前的专辑Chimera显得更为有价值。
Chimera still maintained a progressive edge. In 2004,
Maniac was forced out of the band, according to
Necrobutcher, because of stage fright-induced alcoholism.
Chimera的风格仍与前卫扯上边。2004年,Maniac被逐出乐团,
Necrobutcher说他因为他有怯场问题,导致他酗酒。
Necrobutcher also stated that because of this, a violent
encounter ensued between the singer and Blasphemer, during
which the guitarist kicked Maniac down a flight of stairs and
smashed his head facefirst twice into a wall. Attila Csihar
was reinstated as his replacement.
Necrobutcher同时发表声明说因为这个问题,Maniac与Blasphemer暴力冲
突接踵而来,他们打起来的时候Blasphemer会从楼梯上踢飞Maniac,还抓
他的头去撞墙两次。此後Attila Csihar回锅取代他的位置。
