Usisi Osontekile wavela esigcawini saseNew York ngo-1972. Isiphetho seqembu elidumile sasidabukisa kakhulu.
Konke kwaqala ngobani?
Umsunguli wokudalwa kweqembu kwakungumculi wesiginci uJohn Segal, lapho "abalandeli" bamaqembu amaningi e-rock bahlangana khona ngaleso sikhathi. Igama langempela leqembu leSilver Star.
Ukwakhiwa kokuqala bekungazinzile futhi kwashintsha kakhulu. Ekuqaleni, leli qembu lalihlanganisa uJohn Segal, uBilly Diamond, uSteve Guarino kanye noTonny Ban, ababedlalwa kakhulu ezindaweni zokucima ukoma eNew York.
Izinguquko Eqenjini Lodade Abasontekile
Ngemva konyaka, uMichael O'Neill wabajoyina, futhi nguyena owayenombono wokushintsha igama langaphambilini libe ngu-Twisted Sister nokubuyekeza isitayela. Akubona bonke abaculi beqembu abavumelana nalokhu, ngakho u-Eddie Ojeda (isiginci), uKenneth Harrison Neil (ibhesi), uKevin John Grace (izigubhu) bathatha izindawo zabahambile.
Izinto bezingahambi kahle kubaculi kwaze kwaba uDee Snider ethola imakrofoni. Kusukela eqenjini lokuqala, uJJ French kuphela owasala eqenjini.
Ukuthola ubuso bakho
Ngaphambi kokufika kuka-Snyder, iqembu lalidlala izingoma zekhava kuphela, kodwa umculi omusha washintsha izinto ezibalulekile. Manje iqembu lase lisebenzela ukwenza imisebenzi yalo.
Kwaqala ngeqiniso lokuthi phakathi kwezingoma uSnyder wafaka ama-monologues akhe abanzi. Uphinde wamisa ibhendi ukuthi igxile kunsimbi eqinile, eyisusa ku-glam rock.
Kusukela ekusebenzeni emaqenjini esandla sesibili, leli qembu laliqhubekela phambili ngokuzethemba ekusayineni inkontileka, lithola ukuthandwa okwengeziwe. Kodwa lokhu akuzange kumsindise ekuthengeni okwengeziwe kwabasebenzi: isigubhu sathathelwa indawo nguTony Petri, futhi umculi webhesi kwakunguMark Mendoza. UMarku waba nesandla ekuqhubekeleni phambili "kwe-metalization" yeqembu.
Ukuqala komsebenzi we-studio
Ngo-1978, kwakhululwa irekhodi lokuqala leqembu - elithi I'II Never Grow Up Now! Ngemva konyaka, baqopha i-EP elandelayo ye-Bad Boys (Ye-Rock 'n' Roll). Noma kunjalo, abamemezeli abakhulu benqaba ukubambisana neqembu elithi Twisted Sister. Kwaze kwafika ngo-1982 lapho i-Secret Records yaxhasa khona i-albhamu yokuqala yeqembu.
Ngalesi sikhathi, u-Anthony Jude wayesevele engumshayi wezigubhu, kanti uPete Way wayengumdidiyeli. Umsindo we-albhamu yokuqala ethi Under the Blade wawungekho ezingeni eliphezulu kakhulu, kodwa nokho waqashelwa, futhi iqembu le-Twisted Sister laqala ukwenza njengesenzo sokuvula iqembu le-Motӧrhead, laphinde labamba iqhaza ku-The Tube.
Ngemva kokusakaza, ngokushesha banikezwa inkontileka yi-Atlantic Records, futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo inkampani yabela leli qembu umkhiqizi omusha, uStuart Epps, owaqondisa iqembu ukuba li-glam.
Twisted Sister albums
Ngokushesha i-albhamu yesibili yakhululwa, futhi ngayo ukuthandwa kwanda. Iqophelo eliphezulu lodumo luka-Twisted Sister kwaba phakathi nokukhishwa kwecwecwe lobude obugcwele elithi Stay Hugry, elibe yimpumelelo yokuhweba ngokuphelele.
Iqembu libe nezingoma zalo ezishisa izikhotha ethi, We're Not Gonna Take It nethi I Wanna Rock. I-albhamu ibe yimpumelelo enkulu. Inhlanhla yenza abaculi bacabange ukuthi baqhubeke nokuthuthukisa i-glam emsebenzini wabo noma babuyele ensimbi. Umzamo wokuhlanganisa lezi zitayela yi-albhamu ethi Come Out and Play, eyamukelwe kahle wumphakathi.
Ngemva kokufika ezikhundleni eziphezulu, i-disc yanyamalala ngokushesha emashadini, futhi uhambo lokusekela i-albhamu lwalusengozini. Le ndaba yaba inkimbinkimbi lapho kungqubuzana khona isiFulentshi noSnyder. Ekugcineni, uSnyder waqopha i-disc elandelayo nabaculi abamenyiwe bangaphandle, nakuba amagama okuqanjwa okusemthethweni ayebhalwe kukhava.
Emakhonsathini alandelayo, abahlanganyeli bangaphambili baphinde bathatha izindawo zabo ezifanele. I-albhamu ethi Love Is For Suckers ibe umkhiqizo we-pop metal, ngenxa yalokho "abalandeli" bangaphambili bafulathela ibhendi ethi Twisted Sister. Lokhu kwalandelwa uhambo "oluyinhlekelele" lwase-US naseYurophu.
Ukuhlukana kukasisi Osontekile
Ngemuva kwazo zonke lezi zigigaba, leli qembu belilinde ukubhidlika, kwaphinde kwavela ngemuva kweminyaka engu-10 kuphela. Ukuhlanganiswa kwabo kuphinde kwakhishwa ngabakwaSpitfire Record, okwenza ukuthi u-Twisted Sister avuke ngo-2001. Abaculi banikeze ikhonsathi yenhlangano esiza abantulayo. Lokhu kulandelwe ukukhishwa kwezingoma ezihamba phambili zeqembu ezihlanganisa i-Essentials.
USnyder, enabaculi u-Eddie Ojeda, JJ French, Mark Mendoza kanye no-AJ Piro, benze isitudiyo saphinda saqopha izingoma ezishisa izikhotha, ezihlanganiswe ekuhlanganisweni kwe- Still Hungry ngo-2004.
Ngonyaka olandelayo kwaphawulwa ukuphana kweqembu emcimbini wezinsuku ze-Klondike kanye nohambo olufushane, lapho iqembu lenze ngendlela engavamile, ngaphandle kokusebenzisa isiteji sabo, esijwayele "abalandeli" abahlangene.
Imvuselelo yeqembu
Ngo-2006, icwecwe lokugcina likaKhisimusi laqoshwa, okuwuhlobo lwekhava lwamahithi athandwayo. Idlanzana lamavidiyo omculo nawo aqoshwa, kwathi 2009 kwaba wubukhona bokugcina bokugcina buka-Twisted Sister, ofana nombukiso.
Khona-ke abaculi ngezinye izikhathi babejabulisa abalandeli abavela kuwo wonke umhlaba, benikeza amakhonsathi futhi behamba ohambweni olufushane, bahlanganyele emikhosini ehlukahlukene nemibukiso.
Abaculi bagubhe iminyaka engu-30 yengoma yabo ethi Stay Hungry. Wonke ama-albhamu asathandwa kakhulu kubalandeli bomculo wabo, ukukhishwa kwawo kokuqala sekuyinto eyivelakancane.
Uhlelo lokuvalelisa u-Twisted Sister
Ngo-2015, umshayi wezigubhu u-AJ Piro washona ngesikhathi evakashele e-US. Iqembu libe selimemezela ukuhlukana kweqembu laphinde lenza uhambo lokuvalelisa ngo-2016. Ukusebenza kokuvalelisa kuqoshwe kuDVD.
