标题[闲聊] Decapitated 25周年巡回与性侵指控…
时间Sun Jul 18 02:51:27 2021
几乎所有烂事都降临在他们身上的波兰砍你全家技术死,
Decapitated在2017年的时候被控性侵,
在美国巡回巡到一半就被迫接受司法调查,
事後无罪释放,调查结束後就驱车回波兰,
让团员们至今都不曾踏上美国爸爸的地盘,
团员也带着疲惫的身心回家…
正好砍头最近要进行25周年巡回演出,
听说在英国就有人拿着相关报导想要杯葛Decapitated入境英国,
Decapitated当然就跳出来消毒澄清,司法都还他们清白了,
我们就是无辜受到性侵指责,
你直接拿出当我们当晚被逮捕的报导就片面宣称我们是一群强奸犯,
要说故事也要把後续审判结果拿出来还原全貌才公平啊!
Well… 我自己的浅见是,法律是个最低道德底线,
就算透过「证据」就事论事得出的结论,都只能算是科学手法还原现场以逼近真相,
司法定谳的事情不见得就是事情的全貌,毕竟知人知面不知心,
但是看到Decapitated官网这样洋洋洒洒义正严辞的声明,
我自己是偏向相信性侵的指控「在科学和客观上」言过其实,
然後团员当晚应该有… 和女性…接触…
至於是谁让团员背负性侵的指控,理由和脉络为何就非常不好说了…
Anyway,无论真相为何,在外人生地不熟的还是尽量避免人与人的接触…(怕

As many of you may or may not be aware, back in 2017 in the midst of our USA t
our we had the worst experience of our lives during the time we got arrested a
nd jailed after being falsely accused of sexual assault. We went through hell
and back. After all charges got dropped when evidence that would prove our inn
ocence came to light and we were able to return to Poland, we made a short sta
tement about the situation and had decided not to go into any sort of detail.
The band had not been found guilty and we didn’t want to share much, if any,
of the details of what we had to go through.
We have known the truth and the truth will always win.
Unfortunately, it has been brought to our attention that a small group of peop
le, who know nothing about our case or have any connection to it or us, have b
een reaching out directly to some of our beloved UK venues and promoters of th
e 25 year anniversary EU/UK tour that we announced earlier this week, bringing
up old articles from when we got arrested, in an attempt to cause damage to t
he band and our shows.
Over the past weeks and months, we’ve heard about several industry players (b
e it bands, promoters or agents) rightfully coming under fire after severe all
egations of unacceptable misconduct.
This is absolutely unrelated to Decapitated.
We have nothing to do with this and don’t deserve to be dragged through the m
ud again.
The band has ZERO interest in rehashing the past and certainly, the scars need
to be kept closed. We value the emotional and mental health of our band membe
rs and ALL involved in their lives. We will not go back to one of the, if not,
the worst times of our lives. It hurts us that some people are forcing us to
go relive all those terrible feelings again, while we moved on and have been w
orking very hard to rebuild this band.
Our members, family, label, closest fans, friends and people from the music in
dustry have helped every step of the way to keep us afloat, as well as mentall
y and emotionally strong.
Decapitated has never used and will never build their strategy and recognition
, or look for media attention, by talking about private life, being scandalist
s, or provoking and offending others.
But once and for all to set the record straight: We strongly stand with the vi
ctims of ACTUAL sexual abuse, homophobia, racism and strongly condemn any acti
ons or sentiment of this kind, ALWAYS! There is NO room for this in our belove
d metal community (or anywhere else). Accusations related to any kind of abuse
or assault should always be taken seriously. Sexual harassment does happen an
d it is horrible.
But false accusations do also happen and can also very easily and rapidly dest
roy lives, relationships and careers. Unfortunately, we experienced this first
hand and this keeps chasing us to this very day. It is very unfortunate and d
isrespectful that some people are trying to take this away from real survivors
of abuse.
After months of hard work together with our team, we were very excited to anno
unce our 25 year anniversary tour this week. In case some venue or promoter wo
uld still want to cancel our show, it would sadden us deeply but we will respe
ct that decision and move on.
We cannot wait to hit the road again after these challenging Covid times and h
ope to see many of you on one (or more) of our below tour dates.
Thank you once again to everyone who has supported us over the years.
