O que eu ando ouvindo...
Como misturar Death Metal, Hardcore e um pouco de Hip Hop e ainda sair direito? O Slipknot dá um jeito. Pra quem não conhece, é uma banda de rock pesadão, formada por nove integrantes mascarados, que fazem uma música para espantar... ou conjurar... os demônios. No meu caso, eu uso pra relaxar... hehehehe!
Acabei virando um grande fã dos caras. Tenho os três cds da banda e um dvd com um show em Londres, que é de babar. Para ao meu azar e desespero, eles estiveram presentes naquela meeeeerrrrda de Rock in Rio Lisboa. Eu digo que é merda porque eu estou a um oceano de distância, é claro. Portugueses cagados.
A música de trabalho mais recente dos caras se chama Duality. O clipe tá sempre passando na MTV. Ela chega até a ser leve se comparada aos seus trabalhos anteriores, mas ainda assim, é uma porrada daquelas. Abaixo segue a letra desta pérola do cancioneiro popular.
Duality (Slipknot)
I push my fingers into my Eyes
It’s the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it’s made of all the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends, it works its way inside
If the pain goes on
I have screamed until my veins collapsed
I waited as my time’s elapsed
Now all I do is live with so much fate
I've wished for this, I've bitched at that
I've left behind this little fact
You cannot kill what you did not create
I've gotta say what I've gotta say
And then I swear I'll go away
But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise
I guess I’ll save the best for last
My future seems like one big past
You’re left with me 'cause you left me no choice
I push my fingers into my eyes
It’s the only thing that slowly stops the ache
If the pains goes on
I'm not gonna make it!
Put me back together
Or separate the skin from bone
Leave me all the pieces
Then you can leave me alone
Tell me the reality
Is better than the dream
But I found out the hard way
Nothing is what it seems!
I push my fingers into my eyes
It’s the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it’s made of all the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends, it works its way inside
If the pain goes on
I'm not gonna make it!
All I've got
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got!
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got!
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got
All I've gone is insane!
I push my fingers into my eyes
It’s the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it’s made of all the things I have to take
Jesus it never ends, it works its way inside
If the pain goes on
I'm not gonna make it!
All I've got
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got!
All I've gone is insane!
All I've got!
All I've gone is insane!
Mas eu não vivo só de metal. Também andei pegando todas as músicas dos Ramones, alguns cds do Rancid e toda a trilha da série e do filme do Cowboy Bebop. Rulessssss!
