The Wall专辑介绍
平克·弗洛伊德(Pink Floyd)”演唱组从诞生起,就是一支有争议的摇滚乐队,爱之者称其代表了摇滚音乐的新潮流,恨之者抱怨说他们的音乐枯燥乏味。但是不管喜欢与否,他们的那种摇滚,新型爵士,乡村音乐,布鲁斯以及电子音乐的混合风格,使人无法无动于衷。

Pink Floyd 的《The Wall》(迷墙)也许是音乐史上最具迷惑力最富想象力的专辑。《The Wall》录制于1979年,联合艺术家电影公司在1982年拍摄了这张专辑的同步电影《迷墙》。

故事是围绕着一个虚构的,将一位名为Pink Floyd歌星的孤独比喻成一堵精神上的墙所展开的,而墙是由他在人生各个阶段所产生的,而且无法排斥的一种精神失落,它不以个人意志为转移并随他的人生成长也日益增长演化发展而成的。专辑的开篇便是通过邀请无意识的观众进入Floyd的演出("In The Flesh?")而展开的,刚一出世Pink就面对着如履薄冰的人生("The Thin Ice"),然后转回到孩提时代对在二战中阵亡的父亲的回忆("Another Brick In The Wall [Part 1]"),上学后又不得不面对填鸭式的刻板教育制度的伤害("The Happiest Days Of Our Lives "以及" Another Brick In The Wall pt. 2");回到家中他的母亲又对其的过分看护而使其感受不到任何家庭的温暖("Mother"),他不由得自问“我该相信政府吗?他们会把我送上火线吗?我该修建一堵墙吗?”;但在甜言蜜语的回答中,他看到的却是这个世界依旧充斥着漫天而降的炸弹和奔向掩体的平民("Goodbye Blue Sky ");他迷惑了,不知何去何从("Empty Spaces ");于是他自甘堕落下去,在他对性的憧憬和渴望中("Young Lust")高喊到“I need a dirty girl”;然而在现实无奈的空虚中,只能假装一切都好,但日复一日,爱变得灰暗,他却变老并得不到任何快乐("One Of My Turns");他感到的只是剃刀般的冰冷和葬礼的鼓声,以及对女友离去后所发出的凄惨的哀鸣("Don\'t Leave Me Now ");此时的Pink已经完全绝望,他已不再相信任何人,他觉得他就象一块墙上的砖头被强行禁锢在其中迷失了自我("Another Brick In The Wall pt. 3 ");最后,在他结束曲("Goodbye Cruel World")中彻底将自己和周围的世界隔离开而结束了第一盘的内容,而此时,Pink已完全建立起来的自我封闭的墙,它表明他已深深地陷入精神失落的旋涡里。

第二盘在Pink面对外面的世界寻求自我解脱("Hey You ")中开始,而美妙的吉他演奏曲("Is There Anybody Out There?")以及低沉的管乐曲("Nobody Home")折射出此时Floyd的孤独情感,对人生迷茫的他哀叹到“..But I\'ve got nowhere to fly to”;精神忧郁的Pink面对电视中反映二战时期的电影时唤起他悲伤的回忆,不由发出痛苦的哀鸣("Vera");随后在一片鼓乐齐鸣般的古典弥撒风格的颂歌合唱中,引出了整部专辑的核心曲目("Bring The Boys Back Home")中则唱出了他强烈的反战心声;当他的唱片公司使用药物诱使其完成("Comfortably Numb")后,他不由得想逃避,发问到“这场表演还要继续下去吗?”为何不转身逃走?然而此时此刻,他已没有退路,他不得不将这场表演进行下去("The Show Must Go On");在演出现场,他那种忧郁不振的情绪最终异化为一种莫名的憎恶和歇斯底里般的法西斯式发作("In The Flesh"),他嚎叫到“If I had my way, I\'d have all of you shut”;他不愿被社会带走他的灵魂,宁愿("Run Like Hell");在温暖但混乱的战栗中,他再度迷茫,孤立无援只能("Waiting For The Worms"),伴随着痛苦,他的心在流血,精神已疲倦不堪,终于将这场表演("Stop ");而在("The Trial")中,他通过对自己在精神上进行的审判,最终将他心灵中的这面墙推倒后,Pink终于走出墙外("Outside The Wall")和人们又会聚在一起而结束全曲。回首往事,墙那边又是一群疯狂的小孩们,他们是否又在建造他们自己的墙吗?这张唱片向我们展示了追求理想的曲折路程,它以内心的沉思为主,以“墙”比喻人性的枷锁,在经历种种挫折和失败后,不再沉沦,不再逃避,勇敢地走出“墙”外,寻找自己的新天地。

这部专辑广受注目的一个重要原因是它与当时的社会背景紧密配合。例如,在专辑中多次出现的反战内容唱出了广大美国社会民众对越战深刻反思的心声,而把自己比作是“墙上的一块砖头”且无足轻重,便采取逃避的方式以求解脱,这种思想又与当时美国社会中“垮掉的一代”的处世态度不谋而合,因此也同样赢得了广泛的社会共鸣。这部抱负不凡的概念专辑凭其极富社会反叛性的内涵而在全球掀起热潮。该专辑在美发行后于当年12月15日进入美专辑榜并名第列51位,六周后升至榜首并一举蝉联15周冠军,而在美国同期发行的单曲“Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)”也以其特有的叛逆性而成为其单曲榜的4周冠军,并且也是他们历史上唯一一首单曲榜冠军歌曲。THE WALL的演出则是一部耗费心力的舞台表演(如此奢华以至于乐队只能将它带到少数几座城市进行演出)并被改编成一部完整的电影。该专辑同期在全球攻陷了几乎所有西方工业化国家的排行榜并占据榜首位置,除了日本和英国。好惊讶吧!不过想想英国Q杂志给出的很普通的三颗星的打分,也没什么奇怪的啦。The Wall同样标志着Waters和Gilmour最后一次作为合作伙伴工作在一起。乐队在下一部专辑The Final Cut完成后便宣告解体。

这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第87位。

The Wall is less a collection of songs than a single work, which is sometimes frustrating; the plot lacks enough coherence to hold the snippets of music together. However, there are occasional flashes of brilliance on what ranks as Pink Floyd's most ambitious project. Most of these come from the fully developed songs, which have become classics in their own right. "Hey You," "Mother," and especially "Comfortably Numb" are subtle, incredible pieces of music. Though complex, they move at a relaxed pace, allowing the listener to absorb them slowly; this kind of pacing was something Pink Floyd excelled at. Also worth noting is the "Another Brick in the Wall/The Happiest Days of Our Lives" medley, which has become a staple of rock radio. --Genevieve Williams
