"Psychedelic Train"-British Rock Memorial Album

Deja 2021-10-19 09:47:47

If a movie that takes only 45 days, it is not easy to miraculously mate with the essence of British music. Put it this way, if this movie is a very high dose of psychedelic medicine, then its soundtrack is the needle that slowly puts this medicine into your blood.



1. "Lust For Life"-Mark



Renton, who runs Iggy Pop's opening credits, says :



Why should I choose? I choose not to live, I choose others. The reason? There is no reason. As long as there is heroin, what reason is there?



At the same time Iggy Pop also roared in the song:



I'm worth a million in prizes

With my torture film

Drive a GTO

Wear a uniform

On a government loan.



I'm worth a million in prizes

Yeah, I'm through with sleeping on the sidewalk

No more beating my brains

No more beating my brains

With liquor and drugs

With liquor and drugs.



This song is selected from "Lust For Life" released by punk ancestor Iggy Pop in 1977. The 1970s was the period when the punk stream represented by Sex Pistol was the most arrogant. But Iggy Pop from the United States is much gentler than the British punk such as Sex Pistol at the same time. If you compare Sex Pistol to South Park in the 1970s, then Iggy Pop is Monty Python the same year as it.





2. "Deep Blue Day"-Brian Eno



saw Scotland's dirtiest toilet alive become Walden, will understand why some people are trivial to collect plastic bags and 502. . .





3. "Transpotting"-When Primal Scream



sees the name of this band, it always triggers the association of screams. . . . It is said that Primal Scream, a band founded in the mid-1980s, "mainly based on electro-acoustic and dance music styles, and has contributed to the successful introduction of these elements into Britpop", of course, this is the column teacher said. Yes, it doesn't matter to me. However, the influence of this style they created can also be seen from the background music of their dominance of EA's simulated city series.





4. "Atomic"-Sleeper



mentioned the British gang in the 90s. It is estimated that 90% of the classmates' first reaction is Suede, Oasis, Coldpaly, blur, Pulp, Muse, Echobelly...



but it often does not involve an odd number. To say the difference is mainly because the evaluation of it in the circle has always been very high, but the record sales have been not ideal. The song "Atomic" was included in the original soundtrack of the radio station in "GTA VC". Appeared on a radio station in the game and sang for a band named "love first". The effect was amazing.

Putting this song to describe Mark’s sexual recovery after his first successful detoxification is probably meant to imply that Mark’s vigorous energy at this time is ready to go like a nuclear bomb locked on the target. Teacher Yi is also well-intentioned.





5. "Temptation"-New Order



Oh, you've got green eyes

Oh, you've got blue eyes

Oh, you've got gray eyes

Oh, you've got green eyes

Oh, you've got blue eyes

Oh , you've got gray eyes

And I've never seen anyone quite like you before



This song appeared twice in the film, once Mark was driven to sleep in the aisle by Diane, and Diane sang it in the house. The second time was when Mark was rehabilitating for the second time, and he had the illusion of Diane sitting on the bed singing this song. Just like the title of the song, every appearance is accompanied by a temptation-sex and medicine.



If a band lacks a soul character, then it is almost determined that it will do nothing in the future, but the magical band New Order is an exception. Its predecessor was the famous post-punk band Joy Division. When Ian Curtis, the lead singer of the band, committed suicide in 1980, the remaining members formed the current New Order. And successfully changed the style from Post-Punk (post-punk) to Synth Pop (synth pop). If you are interested in JD, you can find "Control", a biographical film about them.





6. "Nightclubbing"-Iggy Pop



This song appeared when Mark failed to give up drugs and tried to take old drugs again. You can make music awkward, even stupid. But being able to make music so wretched is absolutely impossible if it is not awesome. Iggy Pop's "Nightclubbing" is so awesome. Of course, some students will ask, how awkward is to be considered awesome? Simply put it this way, it is so trivial that you can sing a small tune and can spit out the sound and become a medicine like a memorial quotation.





7. "Sing"-Blur



reached the half-waist of the film, and then cut back to the opening scene of Mark running wildly on the street. However, the background music was changed from Iggy Pop's "Lust For Life" to Blur's "Sing".


"I can't feel

Cos I am numb

So what's the worth in all of this

What's the worth in all of this"


Uh, the leader has spoken. There are two things worth noting about this song:

1. The paragraph at the end is like " In "Queen Jean Approximitely", the sound of people scratching the glass was sharp.

2. Teacher Qi's sentence about this paragraph: "The great work of art that revives the concept of ideology through the nihilization of the value of the forced will." Another entertaining and paradoxical unconscious cult is freshly released. . .




8. "Perfect Day"-Lou Reed

theme once involved the 20 cm long upturned suspected big banana. . . Not much to say, Lou Reed will bring you the popular "Sunset Red" ~







9. "Mile End"—Pulp,



as the name suggests, is indeed very vulgar. The peaceful life of an otaku in a single apartment is calm. . .





10. "2-1"-Elastica



Justine, the female lead singer of Elastica, was originally Suede's guitarist, and she had a better time with Brett, the lead singer of Suede. Then she went out independently with a reputation, don't think she is a simple celebrity, but Brett took the initiative to show it.



As Diane said in the film: Medicine is changing, happiness is changing, and the world is changing. The rise of Elastica, which combines revival punk and electronic styles, is also considered to have brought a new atmosphere to the British rock industry. Let's take CCAV6: The change in music style also hints at the ending of Mark's betrayal guys at the end of the film.





11. "A Final Hit"



is the last stitch that Mark decided to give himself after getting the goods later in the film, but the fact is often that every stitch was or will be the so-called "last stitch", so logic For a moment, "Every Final Hit" is more rigorous. Having said that, if the sound surround is good, the music is still very psychedelic.





12. "Born Slippy"-Underground



myrrh is boring, drug use; drug use is boring, drug quit-if you give the script to Monty Paison , I really wonder if there will be a large green house blowing in the pub While taking the injection, the crowd gathered to discuss how to use the theory of marginal effects to effectively extend the thrill of each drug-taking cycle.


Congratulations to the students who successfully deconstructed the so-called industrial age anxiety and postmodernist ideological conflict in this film from this song "Born Slippy" (born snobbery). , No matter how you quantify your funny, you will get more humor than this.





Diane is right, the music is changing and the world is changing. In this era of guava-filled idiots who are immersed in the stupid rhythm of synthesizers and rubber discs all day long, I would like to use this article to commemorate those who are like Mark walking on the Thames Bridge, which is gradually blurred. , The fading British rock. So, lookin ahead to the day I die.

    In fact, who doesn't want to be completely rebellious, to be a complete bastard. Well at least I think. But the hardest thing to do is to rebel against the world you have rebelled in the past. In fact, whether it is rebellious and depraved or strictly observing one's duty, it will eventually feel boring and sad. I really admire that the hero can finally betray his initial life.
