MC: １０年以上マイケミカルロマンスのフロントマンとして活躍したGerard Wayですが、初のソロアルバム「Hesitant Alien」を出したばかりなんで僕が今Gerardに言いたいのは「平和的目的で来ました！」ですね。今日は来てくれてありがとうございます！元気にしてますか？
Gerard（以下G）：どうも（笑）今日は招いて頂いてありがとうございます。
MC: さて、先週はYouTubeで動画をアップしましたが、動画で君の大ファンとちょっと気まずい会話がフィーチャーされましたね。ちょっと見てみよう。
G: はいよ
-------------------------
【動画】
G: 言いにくいんだけどね、えーバスにもうスペースがないんだ。ギター詰めすぎたよ。そんでギターを捨てる訳にはいかないから、君は他の方法でニュージャージー州に行かなきゃいけないんだ。僕は誰よりも君に来て欲しいんだけど、もうスペースが全くない！
------------------------
MC: さてあれはマスコットのLolaだね（笑）彼女一人でニュージャージーまで行くことになったんだね？
G: ええ、僕の空上の友達Lolaだけど―
MC: そんでライブは明日で―
G: 明日の夜ね、ええ―
MC: 僕はLolaが心配だよ。だって君が置いてきてさ、今彼女はどこにいるのか？そしてライブに間に合うのか？
G: 僕はね、Lola間に合うと思いますよ
MC: かなり自信あるみたいだね
G: Lolaはね、あいつ結構自立してますからね
MC: あいつ？
G: ええ、あいつだ
（ここまでMCがずっとLolaを「she→彼女」言ってるけど、Lolaは性別がないからGがちょっとイライラしてるみたい・・・MCの"she"に対してGは曖昧な"they"を使ったからMCがちょっと動揺している）
MC: ではもうちょっと真面目な話をしよう。新しいアルバムHesitant Alienはギターを賛美するようなアルバムと言いましたが―
G: はい―
MC:だが、アルバムをレコーディングする時はどうやって他の楽器よりも一つだけの楽器を賛美するんですか？
G: そうですね、賛美するというのは、現在はちょっと古くて、そしてちょっとダサいモノに新しい使い方を見つけてあげることだ思います
MC: なるほどね
G: ラジオであんまり聴かないファズペダルみたいな古い機材にも新しい使い道を工夫して、そんでなんだろ？アルバムにいっぱい詰め込んで、そんでギターもたくさん重ねてさ、ギターの壁みたいな感じになるまで
MC: いいね！マイケミのアルバムのほとんどがコンセプトアルバムだったが―
G: ええ―
MC: しかしHesitant Alienは明らかにコンセプトアルバムではないですね。あるストーリーやビジュアルに縛られないことってアーティストとしてどうですか？開放的ですか？
G: すごく開放的と同時にすごく大変でした。コンセプトに慣れすぎて、ちょっと頼よりにしてしまった。なんで今回はコンセプトがなかったからこそ、ある意味で一曲一曲が自立しなきゃダメって感じでした。今までとは全然違いました。
MC: ある意味でね、コンセプトがはっきりしていると道しるべになりますよね？
G: ええ、アルバムがそれだけで出来ちゃいますからね。
MC: アルバムにはコンセプトがないかもしれないけど、MillionsとNo ShowsのPVでは同じようなテーマがありますね。なんかビジュアルが失われた1980年代のパラレルワールドのへんてこEd Sullivan Showのビデオテープみたいだね。すくなくとも僕にはそう見えたけど。
G: パラレルワールド感は絶対ありますね。ＰＶの監督Jennifer Juniper Stratfordが最初から僕の好みとアルバムのビジョンを聞いてくれたけど、BowieやT-Rexなど70年代のグラムアーティストだと答えたら、彼女がさ、ああいうアーティストは昔Uマッチを使って撮影したけど、あれだったらそれを使ってみようよーって。なんか彼女にはビジョンがあって、宇宙からの低予算ローカル番組にしたいってね。
MC: まさにイメージ通りですね。
G:でしょう！
MC: ぴったりでした。ぜひお近くの店で、またはオンラインでHesitant Alienを聴いてみてね！PVもお見せしましょう！どうもありがとうございました！
G: ありがとうございました！
The last month has been a whirlwind for Gerard Way, who released his debut solo album, Hesitant Alien, on September 30. The former My Chemical Romance frontman dropped by Trending 10 for an interview about the new LP, which features singles "Millions" and "No Shows," and much more–check it out above!
Way has described the album as a celebration of guitars, and when asked about what that really means, he responded carefully. "I think you celebrate it in that you take something that's possibly old, and a little bit tired at the moment, then you find a new way to use it," he explains. "You take old things like fuzz pedals that maybe you don't hear that much on the radio anymore and you find new ways to use them."
