Metals Quotes - Page 8

• I think it all comes back to the individual. My instrument's just a pile of metal and wood! If you listen to the way I speak I have a lot of rhythm, use a lot of accents. When I'm playing my instrument that concept comes through very clearly. In fact some people who've seen me play have noticed that I'm singing - but it's more that I'm actually speaking. So it's not really about the instrument. But for me, in my thinking, the music is all about the melody. When I compose, 99 percent of the time I start with the melody.

• After the motorcycle trips I take for one or two weeks, I have trouble getting back into a car, because I feel claustrophobic with all of that metal around me, and I can't see anything. I feel seriously dangerous in a car after riding on a bike, because your field of vision is so closed in. And then I think about all these little bourgeois people driving around in their cars - it's actually hideous. It cramps you on the head, it cramps you on the side, it puts you in a box on wheels... It's a terrible experience. Motorcycles are about opening the field of vision.

• Gazzy: "¿Qué significa eso?" (señala la placa metálica que advertía de mantenerse alejado de la tercera vía y que decía ¡Aléjate de la tercera vía!) Fang: "Significa que por el tercer raíl pasan setecientos voltios de corriente continua. Tócalo y serás una palomita humana.

• Es una hermosa idea centrarse en que todo es temporal y siempre está cambiando. Ahora puede ir mal, pero luego irá bien, y viceversa. Escribir sobre estas cosas me produce una gran satisfacción como persona creativa. Hay mucha música que dice: "¡Estoy tan enfadado! ¡Estoy triste! Me gustan las calaveras y los huesos cruzados y el color negro", y eso no tiene sentido y es superficial. Gran parte del metal trata de eso y es difícil encontrar metal que sea sustancial y significativo en cuanto a su contenido.

• Oh, pooh, you’re just like akri. No, Simmi, don’t be breathing fire around the flammable objects or small children. Except for that black plastic card that’s not really plastic.

You looking kind of peaked or piqued or…? Oh, heck, the Simi can never keep those straight. (Simi)

• Chilled-looking people walking along the riverside, the snow beginning, faintly, to pile up on the roofs of cars, the bare trees shaking their heads left and right, dry leaves tossing in the wind. The silver of the metal window sash sparkling coldly. Soon after, I heard sensei call, "Mikage! Are you awake? It's snowing, look! It's snowing!" "I'm coming!" I called out, standing up. I got dressed to begin another day. Over and over, we begin again.

• When the Lilliputians first saw Gulliver's watch, that "wonderful kind of engine...a globe, half silver and half of some transparent metal," they identified it immediately as the god he worshiped. After all, "he seldom did anything without consulting it: he called it his oracle, and said it pointed out the time for every action in his life." To Jonathan Swift in 1726 that was worth a bit of satire. Modernity was under way. We're all Gullivers now. Or are we Yahoos?

• In the Sixties, it was mods and rockers, and hippies and casuals, whereas in the early Eighties, there was Goths, punks, mods, skinheads, New Romantics, casuals, metal heads... the streets looked completely different. You go into town now and you can't tell one kid from another - you don't know what they're into. You can sort of tell a skateboard kid because his trousers are half way down his legs, but that's about it. Back then, people wore their hearts on their sleeves. It was a really bold time.

• B miró por el hueco, hacia una escalera metálica y la oscuridad más allá. "¿Yo primero?" Por supuesto. Eres el aprendiz, así que siempre vas primero hacia lo desconocido. Si alguien va a ser devorado por un grue, deberías ser tú". Un trabajo duro. Pero al menos las horas son terribles.

• At the rear of the bus, the driver wrenched a big chunk of smoking metal out of the engine compartment. The bus shuddered, and the engine roared back to life. The passengers cheered. Darn right!" yelled the driver. He slapped the bus with his hat. "Everybody get back on board!

• I would be happy if I could meet some musicians interested in different acoustics and traditional music. Maybe I will find some Native American or Latin tunes. Anything. Even maybe a great heavy metal guitar player or drummer, and we can do something wild together. My next step is making more music without formats or borders. Not just simple songs or doing covers, but music with more ideas. I think it will again be a synthesis with something else.

• Grover wore his fake feet and his pants to pass as human. He wore a green rasta-style cap, because when it rained his curly hair flattened and you could just see the tips of his horns. His bright orange backpack was full of scrap metal and apples to snack on. In his pocket was a set of reed pipes his daddy goat had carved for him, even though he only knew two songs: Mozart's Piano Concerto no. 12 and Hilary Duff's "So Yesterday," both of which sounded pretty bad on reed pipes.

• De momento apenas sigo la escena metalera finlandesa. Me interesa más el heavy metal tradicional de los 80, y todavía me asustan un poco el black metal y el death metal y sus imágenes provocadoras.

• Una persona virtuosa y bien dispuesta, como un buen metal, cuanto más se le cuece, más se le afina; cuanto más se le opone, más se le aprueba: los males bien pueden probarle y tocarle, pero no pueden imprimir en él ningún sello falso.

• Lo bueno de un buen libro o de una buena película, o incluso de una canción -no soy músico, pero me encanta escuchar música-, es el alcance que cada pieza es capaz de darte. Como "Bohemian Rhapsody" de Queen, 1975, esa canción es tan épica. Va a tantos sitios diferentes, es una ópera y es heavy metal, y es tan loca que va de un lado a otro. Me gustan las películas así.

• Siempre había pensado que el heavy metal -lo que yo sabía de él- era para trágicos perdedores con acné y gafas de pasta que fantaseaban con matar dragones y montar en Harleys, sin darme cuenta en aquel momento de que el único perdedor era yo. Afortunadamente, un buen amigo me puso "Battery", del álbum Master Of Puppets de Metallica, y se me cayeron las escamas de los ojos al instante. Fue una revelación total.

• I had old bunk beds that my dad got from Seabrook Farms. They were first used by German prisoners during World War II, who were sent to work the farms during the war. The metal beds with their thin mattresses could easily be used as a jungle gym and I loved them.
