樂團BIO
金屬怪傑Peter Tagtgren一手領軍,游走於Death與Melodic Death邊緣的瑞典極限樂團
在歐洲極限金屬歷史中扮演極為重要的角色,
滿載麤麻死亡聲線,揮灑狂噪暴戾能量;
由鬼才Peter Tagtgren一手領軍的Death Metal軍隊Hypocrisy,
集結痛苦、仇恨、幻象、陰鬱等黑暗元素,
展現了威猛金屬力道,
成軍至今20載早已風靡多國重型樂界,
享有高度的威望與名聲。
來自瑞典的Peter,不僅獨自編寫出多首驚人創作,
還身兼Amon Amarth、Dimmu Borgir、Enslaved、Children Od Bodom等團專輯的Produced大任,
足跡橫跨電視及電影配樂,
實為難得一見的全方位搖滾怪傑!
1991年以Hypocrisy名義獨自發表Demo「Rest In Pain」,
成功贏到名廠Nuclear Blast一紙合約,
隨後徵昭Jonas Osterberg(吉他)、Masse Bromberg (主唱)、Lars Szoke(鼓)與Mikael Hedlund(貝斯)等夥伴入團,
推出「Penetralia(1992)」和「Osculum Obscenum(1993)」兩張尊崇撒旦邪惡思維的經典鉅作!
稍後Masse離團轉入黑金惡魔Dark Funeral的送葬行列,Peter則回鍋兼任主唱/吉他位置;
1994年「The Fourth Dimension」可說是樂團前後期的分界嶺,
儘管開始增添更多旋律至歌曲內,
游走於Death與Melodic Death邊緣的折衷路線,
詞句方向也轉為探討酷刑、吸毒、精神錯亂與戰爭等,
卻依舊獲得死忠信徒的熱烈喝采。
而在Hypocrisy運作之同時,Peter也化身工業一人團Pain,
祭出多張創下金唱片紀錄的作品,
從製作、混音、演唱更完全不假他手,
獨自包辦所有作業,雖然不乏順暢音頻,
但喧囂度可是再再挑戰者聆聽極限。

感想
Hypocrisy,
是Johnson個人還滿喜歡的一個死金團,
他們的音樂,
個人是比較喜歡後期轉型成為Melodic Death Metal之後的作品,
而且是在Johnson一開始接觸death metal的時候聽到他們的作品,
當時當下有一種很震撼的感覺。
瑞典,
死金與黑金的發源地之一,
90年代,
死金與黑金的樂團如雨後春筍般的冒出,
但是真正成名的卻不多,
Hypocrisy因為Peter的關係而聲名大噪,
Peter Tagtgren 是個很活躍的傢伙,
曾經在不同的樂團裡演奏不同的樂器,在Hypocrisy中則擔任過鍵盤、吉他、主唱,
從Grindcore、Death、Black metal 到電子工業他通通玩遍,
也常常在專輯中嘗試不同的樂風,
說他是Hypocrisy的靈魂,
這一點都不為過。
在他們的音樂裡,
可以感覺的出來很強烈的撒旦主義存在,
雖說原本黑金及死金就是逆向崇拜異教,
但是如此的強烈推崇撒旦,
倒是不多,
Hypocrisy很可惜的一點,
就是Masse的離團,
因為其實Peter對於自己的聲音並不滿意,
所以當時找來Masse擔任樂團的主唱,
但是後來Masse離團轉投入Dark Funeral,
不得已Peter只好回鍋擔任主唱,
但是其實Peter的聲音,
就死金而言,
算是不差的聲音了,
很多死金主唱的聲音,
雖然夠低沉,
但是並不渾厚,
Peter的聲音厚度夠,低沉度也不差。
Hypocrisy這個樂團的音樂,
對於喜愛死金的人來說,
可說是必聽的樂團之一,
去感受他們所帶來的死亡氣息吧!

Hypocrisy Scrutinized
They'll take your life away
They will push 'til you go insane
Raped, they steal your every heartbeat
Until you fall down dead
They monitor every step you take
And watching all your thoughts
Another small piece in the puzzle, no one cares
'Cause you're being controlled
They can see all mistakes that you'll make
How long will it take until you break
From authority's eyes, we're just a virus, just a frame
A world in technology we can't remain
We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed
Never can we live again
They have already set the rules
And the law is your only friend
Obey them and they'll erase you too
Sneaking up on your private life
Leads society to suicide
Now they move into our minds
You try to run but you can't hide
They can feel all the moves that you make
Stay away from the light
Is this the way that you and I have to live?
A world in technology there's no escape
We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed
Forever struggle through our lifetime
We'll never tell the truth from lies
Swallowed by our fears we'll never retreat
The smell of freedom is finally cut
We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed
We're caged within ourselves, afraid to never be healed
We're trapped within our world, our lives we lived are sealed
