第一次看到这个题目的时候，我以为它就是一首哀伤的歌。虽然这和我对NCBL以往的认知不一样，然而我固执地这么认为着。
事实证明我判断失误，这首歌仍然沿袭了NCBL一贯的暴虐风格，歌词也充满了诅咒和暴力。寻的留洋经历带动了整个乐队风格的欧美化，不仅是《Kill me softly》一首歌，其他歌曲都是如此。
回到正题上。在看到这个题目时，我还想到了一首歌，就是那首著名的《Killing me softly with his song》。两首歌可谓风马牛不相及，从风格到表意都相去甚远。在我看来NCBL这首才是跑题的那一个——这简直已经不是温柔杀我，而是来虐杀我了。
这样形容消逝的爱情，却是再贴切不过。俗话说得好，爱越深恨越深。人的情感落差会导致一系列的负面效应，这几乎是每个人都无法避免的。
即便如此，歌曲中描绘的情侣战争仍令人心惊。女人的欺骗和男人的暴虐让这场爱情中没有无罪者，诀别的不舍和残存的情意让一切变得更加痛苦。在最后的分别中，每个人都面目可憎；但同样的，每个人都很可怜。
曾经甜蜜的爱情变得如此疯狂可怕，给听者带来的落差也是巨大的。或许有一天，我们都会变成这样的人，这是令人避无可避的原罪。
电影《消失的爱人》中，Nick最后对Amy说：“是的，我爱过你。但我们后来做的一切，就只有互相怨恨、互相控制，这带给我们的只有痛苦！”而Amy回答他：“这就是婚姻。”
是的，当爱消逝之时，Nick出轨、和学生上床，曾经光鲜亮丽的Amy无时无刻不生活在恐惧和怨恨之中，她发现她变成了自己讨厌的人；当恨意逐渐累积的时候，她用她的高智商策划了一场完美的犯罪，由此陷害她的丈夫，她曾经深爱的人。
有情皆孽，无人不冤。
《Kill me softly》算是NCBL早期比较出色的一首歌，请容许我在文末大力称赞主唱寻的嗓音。VR圈早期乱唱、后期废嗓是个很严重的问题，代表人物DIR EN GREY的京。像寻这样一上来就是练家子的人不多，更重要的是他先天条件过硬、情感把握到位，队友技术也纯熟，后期专辑封面张张有料，因此我很看好他们。他们唯一不足的就是曲风拓展不够，希望他们能越走越远。
