[閒聊] After Forever解散了...

[cielu (黑暗系掰露)]

前天在會場還跟人家聊到這團, 沒想到回來剛好看到板上消息

查了一下解散也才這個月的事而已, 底下是公開信+亂七八糟的翻譯

(中文WIKI有簡歷, 已經更新到解散了)



Dearest fans



After nearly 15 years and with heavy hearts, we have decided to call
an end to a great and exciting time as After Forever.

經過了15年的奮戰, 我們決定為After Forever的精采生命畫下句點


We are extremely proud of what we have accomplished, and especially
of the road we took to get here.
After Forever has never been a band that repeated itself;
we always tried out new things, even though many of them were certainly
done at a risk. We think that that has been one of the reasons we’ve
always enjoyed enormous support from all our loyal fans.

我們對這段經歷引以為傲, 尤其是一路走來的過程
AF是個一直在創新的樂團, 就算可能是太過實驗性質或冒險的嘗試, 我們也樂此不疲
我想這也是廣大樂迷們願意一直支持我們的原因之一



The break we took in 2008 made us appreciate all the more what we’d
experienced. Now more than ever, we can look back on so many fantastic
moments, something we never would have expected to be part of when we
started the band all those years ago.

2008的休團,更讓我們發現我們有多感謝這一切,
這些在組成AF之前的我們根本沒有機會感受的一切




However, that break also made us aware of the fact that we can only
continue After Forever with the energy, the full 110%,
that we have always put into it and we’ve noticed lately that there is
something missing.

We have always been musicians who create music with lots of passion,
and during the break we built up our own lives again and have been
musically active and experimenting in several genres.

Although After Forever is very special to us, we feel that we have reached
the point where we need to explore the world of music in each of our own
different ways.

以上三段是藉口所以一起擷取大意:

我們已經走在很前頭也玩夠了不想再玩了


Thus, we’ve decided to quit while we’re ahead.


所以我們決定在這時候急流湧退<=是這句成語嗎?


We are sincerely proud of every CD; each album represents a unique period,
and all comes together in our last album "After Forever," which made all
of our dreams possible.

我們真摯的以每張原創作品為傲, 每張專輯各自都是每個時期的最佳寫照
我們也將這些時期的精華濃縮在我們最後一張專輯"After Forever"當中
這是讓我們夢想成真的一張作品



We hope After Forever will continue to be a source of inspiration for new
bands and musicians alike so that our music can live on.

我們希望AF能繼續被當作新的樂手們的靈感來源, 也藉此延續AF的生命


As band members, but also as friends, we’ve experienced so very much;
highs and lows, good times and bad. We'll keep supporting each other
in all of our various individual projects and continue inspiring one
another in making music.

作為樂團成員, 我們也像朋友一樣, 一起經歷了很多事情
高潮與低潮, 歡樂與哀傷. 我們在各個PROJECT當中也一直是相互扶持
也在彼此創作過程中互相激發靈感


Our MySpace page www.myspace.com/afterforever will be used
for updates on all of these projects and of course After Forever-related
news, as well.

我的MYSPACE http://www.myspace.com/afterforever
將會持續更新關於這些PROJECT, 或者是AF的消息



You can be sure that this is not an easy decision for any of us.
We'd like to thank all of our fans for their support, also during the break

你們可以確定的是這對我們並不是一個簡單的決定
我們要感謝樂迷們在這段時間, 還有休團時期對我們的支持



We know that this will be a big disappointment to you, dear fans, and it
makes it that much harder for us. You have always given us your all and it
was our pledge, in turn, always to give at least as much back to you for as
long as we exist. In this moment, that’s unfortunately just not possible,
so we'd rather leave you all the albums and gigs we achieved with maximum
input.

也許這個消息會讓你們感到很失望, 但這對我們來說又何嘗容易呢
你們總是給我們最大的支持, 相對的AF也以AF的努力來回報大家
海另個摸門, 很不幸的是這一切要終止了
所以我們想把最精華的留給大家


We'd also like to thank Nuclear Blast, TEG and MOJO for their patience and
enthusiasm, the live crew, the fan club, the fan sites and everybody who's
helped in every way possible.

我們在這裡要感謝Nuclear Blast, TEG還有MOJO的耐心與熱情支援,
還有演唱會工作人員們,FAN CLUB, FAN SITES還有一路上曾幫助過我們的人






We'll miss you all.

我們會想念大家的




Most Sincerely,

Floor, Sander, Joost, Bas, Andre and Luuk




After Forever

哭哭
當Tarja還在NIGHTWISH的時候我不聽AF
因為我覺得AF的聲音不夠渾厚

當Tarja被DORORO之後, 發現新主唱滿足不了我的需求
所以近幾個月才有在聽AF
(因為AF主唱聲音大勝NIGHTWISH新主唱)

結果不知不覺AF也掰掰了

再見~~~再見~~~~~~~~~~~~(揮手)



請幫忙推薦替補團  T_______________T
