以下原文是取自於wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayhem_(band) 虽然我没有这个乐团的专辑，也还未听；单纯只是因为他们的过去的事蹟 让我感兴趣，所以就尝试翻译此篇文章。 有任何谬误欢迎指正。 先翻译到Dead真的Dead为止。 Mayhem is a black metal band formed in 1984[2] in Oslo, Norway. They are regarded as one of the pioneers of the influential Norwegian black metal scene. Mayhem是1984年於挪威奥斯陆(*)组成的黑金乐团。他们被认为是挪 威黑金乐派的先驱，且最具有影响力。 *挪威首都 Mayhem's career has been highly controversial, primarily due to the suicide of vocalist Dead, murder of guitarist Euronymous, and their violent stage performances. Such controversies have often overshadowed their music. Mayhem的音乐生涯有高度的争议性，主要是由於主唱Dead自杀，吉他 手Euronymous被谋杀以及他们充满暴力的舞台演出方式。而这些争议经 常被用来抹黑他们的音乐风格。 Over time Mayhem has evolved through a variety of black metal styles, delving at times into areas of dark avant-garde industrial and electronic. 长久以来Mayhem的风格演变为极端的黑金属，偶尔也会涉及到一些黑暗前 卫的工业及电子风格。 Early years (1984–1987) Inspired by groups such as Venom, Slayer, and Celtic Frost, Mayhem was founded in 1984 by guitarist/vocalist Oystein Aarseth (aka Euronymous), bass guitarist Jorn Stubberud (aka Necrobutcher), and drummer Kjetil Manheim (aka Manheim). 受到Venom, Slayer及Celtic Forst的影响，Mayhem於1984年由吉他兼主唱 Oystein Aarseth (aka* Euronymous), 贝斯手Jorn Stubberud (aka Necrobutcher), 及鼓手Kjetil Manheim (aka Manheim)组成。 *aka, as known as The band name is taken from the Venom song, "Mayhem with Mercy." This lineup recorded and released the demo Pure Fucking Armageddon. 乐团的名称来自於Venom的歌曲, ”Mayhem with Mercy”。这个组合发行 首支demo, Pure Fucking Armageddon. Euronymous concentrated solely on guitar following the hire of a vocalist in 1986. During 1986 and 1987, Sven Erik Kristiansen (aka Maniac) and Eirik Nordheim (aka Messiah) were recruited as vocalists. This lineup recorded the band's first album, Deathcrush, and released it through Euronymous's newly formed label Posercorpse Music. 自1986年乐团徵招了主唱之後，Euronymous专心於吉他演奏。 1986至1987期间, 雇用Sven Erik Kristiansen (aka Maniac)及 Eirik Nordheim (aka Messiah)为主唱, 这个组合发行乐团 首张专辑”Deathcrush”, 此张专辑由Euronymous新开设的 唱片公司Posercorpse Music发行。 An initial release of 1,000 copies of Deathcrush quickly sold out, and was later repressed in 1993, by the Posercorpse Music label, since having been renamed Deathlike Silence Productions as a joint venture with Euronymous's Oslo specialist record shop Helvete. Deathcrush最初发行的1000张很快就销售一空，自从Posercorpse Music改制 为合营公司Deathlike Silence Productions後，1993年开始专辑只限定在奥斯 陆Euronymous的专门唱片行Helvete销售。 Euronymous's plans for this new outlet included that it was to be "...like a black church in the future. We've thought about having total darkness inside, so that people would have to carry torches to be able to see the records." Euronymous的新销售计画包含的目的”…就像是一座黑暗的教堂。我们想要让 它黑暗的彻底，所以大家如果要了解这张专辑的话就必须带着火炬。” By mid-1988 both Manheim and Maniac had left the band: Manheim left to find a mainstream job, and Maniac left due to depression. 1998年中，Manheim与Maniac离团︰Manheim想找个正常的工作， Maniac则是因为忧郁症。 With Dead (1988–1991) After two brief replacements, their positions were filled by Swedish vocalist Per Yngve Ohlin (aka Dead) and local drummer Jan Axel Blomberg (aka Hellhammer). 两名成员离团後，来自瑞典的Yngve Ohlin (aka Dead)及 挪威的鼓手Jan Axel Blomberg (aka Hellhammer)取代了他们的位置。 According to Bard Eithun of the band Emperor: He (Dead) wasn't a guy you could know very well. I think even the other guys in Mayhem didn't know him very well. He was hard to get close to. I met him two weeks before he died. I'd met him maybe six to eight times, all in all. He had lots of weird ideas. I remember Aarseth was talking about him and said he did not have any humor. He did, but it was very obscure. Honestly, I don't think he was enjoying living in this world. 根据Emperor乐团Bard Eithun的说法︰ Dead不是个容易被了解的人，我想就算是Mayhem的其他团员也对他了解 的不多，他真的很难亲近。在他自杀的前两周我才见过他。我总共大概见过 他6到8次。他有许多鬼点子。我记得Aarseth跟我提过他，还说他是个没有 任何幽默感的人。他确实是，但他实在太晦暗了，老实说，我根本不认为他 喜欢活在这个世界上。 With Dead as vocalist, the band's concerts became notorious. 自从Dead成为乐团的主唱後，乐团的演唱会变得恶名昭彰。 Whilst performing, Dead would often cut himself with hunting knives and broken glass. Additionally, the band often had pig or sheep heads impaled on stakes and planted at the front of their stage. 每次的演出，Dead经常用猎刀或是碎玻璃自残。此外，乐团经常把猪或羊 的头刺在木桩上，放在舞台的最前面。 At some point in 1990, the members of Mayhem moved to "an old house in the forest" near Oslo. 1990年的某天，Mayhem的成员搬家到奥斯陆附近的”森林里的老旧房子”。 They began writing songs for their next album, De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas. On 8 April 1991, Dead committed suicide in the house owned by the band. 他们开始为下一张专辑De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas写歌曲， 1991年4月8号，Dead在这屋子里自杀(他真的dead了)。 He was found by Euronymous with slit wrists and a shotgun round to the head. Dead's suicide note read "Excuse all the blood" and included an apology for firing the weapon indoors. 他的屍体被Euronymous发现，手腕上有撕裂伤，还有一把散弹枪 在头旁边。Dead的遗书里写着” Excuse all the blood”，还为他 在屋子里开枪道歉。 Instead of calling the police, Euronymous went to a nearby store and bought a disposable camera to photograph the corpse, after re-arranging some items. Euronymous不但没有立即报警，且跑到邻近的商店去买了台即可拍， 整理一下屍体旁边的东西，拍下Dead死的样子。 One of these photographs was later stolen and used as the cover of a bootleg live album entitled Dawn of the Black Hearts. 这些照片的其中一张被偷出来做成一张盗版现场演奏专辑 Dawn of the Black Hearts的封面。 Eventually, rumors surfaced that Euronymous made a stew with pieces of Dead's brain, and made necklaces with fragments of Dead's skull. 事件最後还有谣言说Euronymous用Dead脑袋的碎肉煮了一锅肉汤， 用Dead头骨的碎片做了几条项链。 The band later stated that the former rumor was false, but that the latter was true.[6] Additionally, Euronymous claimed to have given these necklaces to musicians he deemed worthy. 尔後乐团跳出来说明那些鬼谣言都是假的，但之後又说是真的。 此外，Euronymous宣称他把这些项链送给他认为值得的音乐家们。 According to Stian Johannsen (aka Occultus), who briefly took position as vocalist after Dead's suicide: He (Dead) didn't see himself as human; he saw himself as a creature from another world. He said he had many visions that his blood has frozen in his veins, that he was dead. That is the reason he took that name. He knew he would die. 根据Stian Johannsen (aka Occultus)， Dead自杀後取代他的主唱，的说法︰ 他(Dead)根本不认为自己是个人类，他把自己看成来自异界的怪物。 他说他有血凝结再血管内的幻觉，他觉得自己挂了。 这是他给自己取名Dead的原因，他知道自己即将死亡。 待续… -- ╬═─═╬╬═┼══┼ ║┌═┐ ┌ ╔─╗┌ ╔ ┼╬─╣┼╗┼╬┐╔ ┼ ╠┐╬┌╔ ┌═┐╬┼╗ ╬│ │║│ │ ╬ ║ ┼║│║┼ ╚─╗ ║ ┼ ╚ ╝└╚ ╚ └ ╚─╝╚└╚┘╚ └═┘ └ ║ ╬┼═─══╬═─pribleψ╬ --
