イランでメタル活動は不可能？
Hey, MetalEnglishHeads!!
今回はイランのバンドの面白い記事があったのでそれを訳してみるぞ。
実はオレはイランに3回も行ってんの。縁があってパフォーマーとして。
アメリカに行くのにビザ取らなきゃいけなくて困ってるけど、行ったことは全然後悔してない。どころか最高の経験だったぞ。
イランの印象はとにかく親日。場所によっては、町歩いてたら日本人か聞かれて、そうだと答えるとドーナツ買ってきて渡してくれたり。。
ただ飲んじゃいけなかったり、結婚前にデートしちゃだめだったりと大変な感じと、インスタとかやってる若い人達が不満を持ってるのは話してて感じた。（フェイスブック、ユーチューブ、ツイッターとかのSNSは禁止されてるけど裏でやってる感じ）
で、メタルはどうなの？ 日本で会った唯一のイラン人メタラーはとっととイラン出て今はヨーロッパでプログレメタルバンドやってる～
じゃ、イランのメタルバンドの記事を読んでいくぞ。
このバンドの記事デス！
先ずは、ヒントなしで読んでみてくれ！
Iranian metal heroes Confess have just announced their first album since fleeing from their home country. The aptly-titled Revenge at All Costs will arrive Jan. 21 via Rexius Records.
--------------------
In 2019, the two original members of Confess — Nikan Khosravi and Arash Ilkhani — were sentenced to a total of 14.5 years in prison for the crime of blasphemy through music. In addition, Khosravi was sentenced to receive 74 lashes. The members of Confess originally faced the death penalty after being arrested by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard in 2015.
--------------------
While Ilkhani chose to remain in Iran pre-sentencing, Khosravi hired a human trafficker to take him out of the country. “I met a guy who was the friend of one of my father's friends. He knows some people from military services who was working there, and with some calls, they introduced me to him,” Confess’ frontman told Loudwire.
--------------------
“It's kind of 'mafia,' the way they're doing things. It took about five to six days. [I escaped with] two other guys who were total strangers, they were protestors, political people. They brought us to a small town at the Turkey border. Then by bus, we took a 12 hour ride to Istanbul.”
--------------------
After being sentenced to prison time and lashings, Confess wrote and released the track “EVIN,” named after the prison where they were initially held after being arrested. Khosravi and Ilkhani were ultimately granted asylum in Norway, where they continue to play with local musicians and book shows across Europe.

Iranian metal heroes Confess have just announced their first album since fleeing from their home country. The aptly-titled Revenge at All Costs will arrive Jan. 21 via Rexius Records.
イランのバンド、Confess（コンフェス）は自国から逃げ出してから初になるファーストアルバムの告知をした。彼らにぴったりのタイトルがつけられたRevenge at All CostsはRexius Recordsを通じて1月21日に発売される。
--------------------
In 2019, the two original members of Confess — Nikan Khosravi and Arash Ilkhani — were sentenced to a total of 14.5 years in prison for the crime of blasphemy through music. In addition, Khosravi was sentenced to receive 74 lashes. The members of Confess originally faced the death penalty after being arrested by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard in 2015.
2019年に、コンフェスのオリジナルメンバー二人、Nikan KhosraviとArash IIkhaniは、音楽を通した冒涜罪で懲役14年半の判決を受けた。更に、Khosraviは74回のむち打ち刑を宣告された。コンフェスのメンバーは2015年イラン革命防衛隊に捕まった後、当初は死刑に直面していた。
--------------------
While Ilkhani chose to remain in Iran pre-sentencing, Khosravi hired a human trafficker to take him out of the country. “I met a guy who was the friend of one of my father's friends. He knows some people from military services who was working there, and with some calls, they introduced me to him,” Confess’ frontman told Loudwire.
IIkhaniは判決前はイランに留まることを決めていたが、Khosraviは国から脱出するために人身売買をやっている人を雇った。「オレの父親の友達の友達の男に会ったんだ。彼は兵役で働く人間を知っていて、数回の電話で、人身売買を行ってる人を紹介してもらった」コンフェスのフロントマンはLoudwireに伝えた。
--------------------
“It's kind of 'mafia,' the way they're doing things. It took about five to six days. [I escaped with] two other guys who were total strangers, they were protestors, political people. They brought us to a small town at the Turkey border. Then by bus, we took a 12 hour ride to Istanbul.”
「マフィアみたいなもんだよ。彼らのやり方は。5日、6日ぐらいかかった。全く知らない二人と一緒に脱出したんだ。抗議活動してる政治的な人達だよ。トルコの国境にある小さな町に連れていかれてね。で、そこからバスでイスタンブールまで12時間かけて行ったんだ」
--------------------
After being sentenced to prison time and lashings, Confess wrote and released the track “EVIN,” named after the prison where they were initially held after being arrested. Khosravi and Ilkhani were ultimately granted asylum in Norway, where they continue to play with local musicians and book shows across Europe.
懲役、むち打ちの刑を宣告された後、コンフェスは彼らの逮捕後最初に収容された刑務所の名前EVINという曲を書きリリースした。Khosraviと Ilkhaniは最終的に亡命が認められ、今は現地のミュージシャンと演奏を続け、ヨーロッパでライヴ活動を行っている。
