Heavy Metal
(“Rock Pesado”)
Tenía 14
años cuando curse el 1º medio. Allí conocí a un compañero que con el paso del
tiempo se convertiría en mi “socio”, “compañero-amigo”, “compadre”; don Javier
Esquivel.
El Javier
era, además de buen estudiante, un joven que gustaba mucho de escuchar “música dura”.
Del heavy se pasó al Trash, iba a tocatas, llevaba jeans gastados y rotos. En
aquella época, todo lo “metalero” era combinar jeans y telas negras, poleras,
parches y algunos adminículos como alfileres de gancho.
Lo más
complicado de haber conocido a Javier era que a veces nos venían ataques de
risa en los momentos menos oportunos y por ende en algún momento nos ganamos la
expulsión de la sala, cosa que para nosotros era vergonzoso y mal visto.
Yo
escuchaba por aquel entonces bandas como: Soda Stereo, Git, Los Prisioneros,
Aparato Raro, Virus…etc. Un dia tuve la
mala/buena idea de cuestionar los sonidos que escuchaba Javier le dije: “¿como
sabes que lo que cantan esos tipos no son ofensas a tu propia persona? ”,
Javier bajo la cabeza, se voltio a abrir su mochila y con sus dos manos tomo un
cassette.
Escúchalo!!!-
me dijo- y después me hablai… En su mirada pude entender que lo que yo le había
dicho era casi una ofensa. Guarde silencio y guarde el cassette.
Estando en
casa recordé lo del cassette. Abri mi
mochila y vi la caratula, decía: Iron Maiden- Live After Death (vida después de
la muerte) y aparecía el dibujo de un monstro saliendo de una tumba…solo de
curiosidad lo puse en la radio, espere y empezó la función….Nunca mas deje de
escuchar Heavy Metal. Es adictivo. Vas conociendo bandas nuevas, puedes
escuchar miles de veces la misma canción y hoy en dia hasta consigues los temas
traducidos…yeah!!!
Javier: “you
are a fuckin demon!!!” pero conseguí la llave de la 7ª puerta, conocí a Dante en el circulo
del infierno y baile con la muerte…Javier “You are Guilty!!!!”
Heavy Metal ("Heavy Rock")
I was 14 when the 1st half curse. There I met a fellow who with the passage of time would become my "partner," "partner-friend", "buddy" Don Javier Esquivel.
The Javier was also a good student, a young man who loved to hear "hard music". Switched to the Heavy Trash, going to gigs, wearing faded jeans and broken. At that time, all the "metalhead" was to combine jeans and black cloth, shirts, patches and some gadgets like safety pins.
The hardest thing to have met Javier was that sometimes we laugh attacks came in the most inopportune moments and thus at some point we won the expulsion of the room, which was embarrassing for us and frowned.
I listened back then bands like Soda Stereo, Git, prisoners, Rare Device, Virus ... etc. One day I had the bad / good idea to question the sounds he heard Javier said, "How do you know what those guys are singing insults to your own person? "Javier under his head, opened his backpack volt with both hands and took a cassette.
Hear! - I said and then I hablai ... In your eyes I understood that what I had said was almost an insult. Be silent and save the cassette.
Being at home I remembered what the cassette. I opened my bag and saw the cover, said: Iron Maiden-Live After Death (life after death) and appeared a drawing of a monster emerging from a tomb ... curiosity just put it on the radio, and started the function wait ... . never stop listening more Heavy Metal. It's addictive. You know new bands, you can listen to thousands of times the same song and today to get translated issues ... yeah!
Javier: "you are a fuckin demon!" But I got the key of the 7th door, Dante met in the circle of hell and death dance ... Javier "You are Guilty!"
