Hellboy was released while Lil Peep was a teen, just a few years before he died. The mixtape is focused on pain and how he hoped his might dissipate, and how he figured it probably wouldn’t. That he wasn’t wrong makes listening to the album feel like hearing a very loud alarm with a signal you cannot heed. The isolation at the core of his music wasn’t particular to him; he was just particularly good at distilling it. About the insistence of his depression, despite newfound success, he raps, “I used to wanna kill myself/Came up, still wanna kill myself.” It’s particularly bittersweet that he made it sound so tantalizing, the sound of his voice rich over the borrowed riffs of emo bands and electronic music producers. If you’ve ever felt that way, his music assures you that you’re not alone—and if you haven’t, he gives you a glimpse of what that suffering feels like. –Matthew Schnipper
⟪Hellboy⟫是Lil Peep在青少年时期制作的专辑,发行日期就在他逝世的几年前。这张混音专辑传达了他的痛苦:他渴望其消失并得到解脱,却意识到这样的渴望并不一定会成为现实。这张专辑听起来像是他在死前发出的警告,但听众却无法在那时预知他的结局。他并不是唯一一个通过音乐表达疏离的艺术家,但他善于对感觉进行凝练。成功没有消除抑郁症对他带来的持续影响,他唱到:“I used to wanna kill myself/Came up, still wanna kill myself.”在情绪摇滚的吉他和弦与电音伴奏中,他的声音充满厚度。死亡听起来是迷人的,仿佛痛苦中也参杂着甜蜜。他的音乐在提醒你,如果你也曾感同身受,那么你从不是孤身一人。而哪怕你尚未目击末日,他也向你揭示了苦难的冰山一角。
