工具主唱梅纳德·詹姆斯·基南(Maynard James Keenan)分享了他对乐队和对“相关性”的追求的想法,称这种愿望“很快转向绝望”。
在最近的露面乔·罗根(Joe Rogan)体验播客,梅纳德(Maynard)承认,他很酷,因为不在蒂克托克(Tiktok-er)的雷达上,这是一个经常用来评估乐队在年轻观众中受欢迎的标记。
这位歌手说:“我不会与世界上的蒂克托克人有关,因为它不在他们的范围内。”“那些倾听他们听的东西的人以及对他们现在回应的事情做出回应的人,我不一定有意义。”
“但是,整个一代人不仅是我这一代人。有比我大的人,比我年轻得多。因此,随着他们的衰老,他们将发现它。”
Being in an industry where people clamour for attention — often by any means necessary, the metal icon pointed out the importance of staying true to oneself and ignoring the noise, saying he’s not one to dwell on whether or not he’s “relevant” to those who might not know him.
Responding to Rogan’s remark about bands and their “quest for relevancy”, Manyard said, “You can’t [think about that], because you’ll start being desperate and getting plastic surgery, and looking like a fucking alien and trying to insert yourself into some stupid fucking thing.”
“我不是在谈论任何人。我不是在谈论我的同龄人,”他补充说。“这很快就变成了绝望。它很兴奋。因此,只要维护您的艺术,伙计。”
