Superstar - Chapter 2138

The great success of the “Supernatural Sixth Sense” almost shocked the entire film market. This kind of shock is completely rigid and numb. Even in the intensive publicity period of the film, it is difficult to see the scene of reporters frantically surrounding Hugo. No one even enthusiastically pressed Hugo’s views on “movie box office making history”.

Not because of the embarrassment of predicting another failure, or because of the embarrassment of being slapped by the excellent performance of the movie, but because everyone is completely in shock that is hard to recall. Obviously, people have not done a good job of creating a horror movie. The psychological preparation of history, so that people do not know how to communicate with Hugo, which makes Hugo a rare leisure and peace.

The intensive publicity of the “Sixth Sense of Spirituality” was over when it entered September. Since the post-production of “Beautiful Mind” has been completed, DreamWorks is arranging the release time. If no surprises, it should be released in December—— Not for the awards season, but for the Christmas holidays. Therefore, during this time Hugo rarely took a break and got a completely relaxing rest time.

Hugo first followed Glory to Die in two tours of the “Twisted Tour” in September. However, Glory to Die did not appear on the stage. Instead, as a listener, he truly integrated into the rhythm of the tour and enjoyed the rock scene. The ease and happiness that it brings.

I have to say that Hugo did have a lot of discoveries. He first saw the Magic Red Band (. 5)-at this time they were also called Kara. It can be seen that they were still too immature at this time. , The music style did not take off, it was just a simple imitation of the new metal rock style, and it incorporated too many simple chords of the Oasis-style guitar, in today’s music market, it is difficult to arouse more resonance.

Then I saw Lincoln Park-this is also one of Hugo’s most familiar and favorite bands. At present, the style of Lincoln Park has taken shape. The lead singer Chester Bennington (Chester.) has a hoarse and wild roar. The scene often bursts with amazing energy, and the creation and control ability of the band Mike Shinda (.) gives the band a distinctive style-hardcore rock combines rap, pop and other different elements, bringing the charm of new metal rock to the heart. Interpreted.

Thanks to the “Twisted Tour” stage, Lincoln Park won its own performance opportunity after having closed the door forty-two times, and was able to sign with Warner Bros. Scene and begin recording their first album; the Magic Red Band also During the “twisted tour”, the creation of the album “Love Songs for Jenny (.. Jane began.

The historical trajectory of rock is quietly changing.

During the tour, Hugo and many members of the band talked loudly in the background, only discussing music and the creation, and they often became red-faced with disputes, but unexpectedly became friends. After the two tours were over, the band members were all excited, almost unable to bear the excitement and enthusiasm in their hearts, so they did not wait to go back to Los Angeles at all, and they started the preparations for the new album.

In fact, after the “Blurry Rain” world tour ended, although the band members have been busy all the time, in fact the preparations for the new album have been going on intermittently. It’s just that it has not been officially put on the agenda. Now, three years after the release of “Blurry Rain”, the fourth album of glory to the death has finally begun to show up.

In the previous three albums, Hugo arranged all the writing of lyrics and music. Although Fujin and Neal have been insisting on creating, the quality of the works has not met the requirements, and the style is not in line with the album as a whole, so it has never been adopted. Their works. The three albums connected by Hugo alone, one after another, piled up the road of glory to death, from “almost fame” to “bath in the morning light” to “storm and rain”, glorious to death The style of music is always improving and perfecting, pushing the band to its present position.

In a blink of an eye, the band has been established for nearly six years. After going through ups and downs, the members of the band have become more and more tacit, and the style of the band has become more and more mellow. Most importantly, Fujin, Neil and others. His creative ability has gradually matured, and even Pedro and Alfonso have made great progress in their understanding of music. Therefore, for the band’s fourth album, Hugo is no longer alone in all the creations, but with Hugo’s work as the core, and other members have also joined the creation of the album.

After the band members’ discussions, they decided that the core idea of ​​this album is defined as the renaissance of rock and roll, not the rock wave set off by the glory to death, but the enthusiasm and dream of rock and roll from the beginning to the end.

Recalling that three years ago, Hugo proposed a lofty dream. He hoped to reawaken the belief in rock and roll, plant the seeds of rock and roll in everyone’s heart, and then slowly water it, hoping to see rock and roll rejuvenate someday. The scene of vigorous vitality reproduces the glorious rock and roll of the 70s.

Once upon a time, this dream looked like a mayfly shaking a tree, and it was impossible to realize it. But just three years later, the United States has truly reproduced the golden age of rock and roll, letting everyone’s blood flow with excitement and high spirits of rock and roll. All this is not only the credit of glory to death, but also the credit of Guns and Roses, Nirvana, Pearl Sauce, Nine Inch Nails, Cohen Band-even the Oasis Band, Goatskin Band, Radio Commander, etc. , Generation after generation pave the way to advance, and finally realized this great dream.

And what has always been done is the persistence and madness of rock and roll deep in my heart.

Just like Hugo’s two-year creation of “Save Rock (Save…&, this song is the origin of the rock dream, but also the soul of the rock dream. This is not only to save rock, but also to save rock. It is also a tribute to rock, the spirit of rock and roll in the blood has become the driving force for continuous progress.

This song “Save Rock” has also become the core of the fourth album of Glory to Death.

However, it is not easy to find ten tracks that revolve around “Save the Rock” from the huge and diverse composition of the members and form a complete album; and most of the tracks are not available. The original song has been revised and adjusted and re-arranged; not to mention that the members need to work together, discuss and cooperate with each other, and carefully craft the entire album. This is bound to be a huge project.

Fortunately, EMI Records has always been very patient, and did not even urge Henry Bloom, as if he was not in a hurry for the fourth album of glory to death, because they all know that the historical breakthrough in the “storm and rain” After that, people will inevitably put forward higher expectations for the band’s fourth album. What’s more, Glory to Death has always been a quality-first band-there is no doubt about this since “nearly famous”, so instead of Anxiously urging, making an unpleasant noise, and even causing the quality of the work to be unsatisfactory, it is better to wait patiently and slowly, looking forward to the glory to death once again to bring surprises.

This is also after the glory to the death has achieved incomparable glory, it has won them the confidence and confidence in front of EMI, which left enough time for the band to devote more energy to the preparation of the fourth album. middle.

“Twisted Tour” headed all the way to the East Coast, and after Glory to Death in Houston, he set off and returned to Los Angeles, where he was officially engaged in the production of a new album. In a professional recording studio, they have different arrangement equipment, even recording equipment, which allows the band members to constantly try and adapt in the creative process to find the most suitable choice.

“Are you kidding me? Speed ​​up the rhythm of the drums by a quarter? This will destroy the rhythm of the whole melody. The arrangement of other parts must be changed accordingly, and the style will be completely different. If you just Just close your mouth if you are idle!” Neil expressed his opinion with an angry expression on his face, extremely strong and uncompromising.

Pedro, who stands opposite Neal, did not show any weakness. “If the bass here does not increase the speed, the overall feeling will appear to be procrastinated, which is completely inconsistent with the overall style of the song. Tell me, this song is a sluggish sound in the end. , Or impassioned?” Pedro stared round his eyes, rolled up his sleeves, and looked like he was ready for 300 rounds of war.

Hugo and Fujin sat on the sofa with their hands crossed, with a good expression on their faces, they almost held a pack of melon seeds in their hands. Alfonso stood next to him with a helpless look. He wanted to dissuade him, but even a personal anger came up in front of him. He couldn’t find a gap when he wanted to interrupt. He turned his head and saw two outsiders, completely dumbfounded, “So, What do you think?”

Hugo pursed his lips, and said his thoughts lightly, “I think it’s not a drumming problem~www.mtlnovel.com~ it’s a bass arrangement problem. Simply speeding up the rhythm can’t solve it. Need to change the bass and drum scores.”

Alfonso was dumbfounded and turned to look at Fujin. Fujin thought about it for a while, then nodded, “Well, I agree.”

Alfonso just felt that his chest was blocked in one breath, “Then they are in vain? The direction of the discussion is completely wrong. You two will not discourage it.” Hugo and Fujin both raised their heads. He looked at Alfonso with a “why” expression, and his words filled his mouth. In the end, he could only let out a long breath, “Then I don’t care.”

At this moment, the door of the recording studio was pushed open, Alfonso turned his head and looked over, and then he saw Henry Bloom’s lazy voice-Henry, who is now the nation’s top agent. , At this time, he was wearing a white shirt that was almost crumpled up. The indistinct color was like sleeping in the sand for days and nights, and the crumpled black suit trousers seemed to be picked up from the garbage. He was so ordinary, a messy hairstyle like a chicken coop made him look no different from a tramp.

Henry walked in, glanced at Neil and Pedro who were arguing, then said nothing, went straight to the sofa and sat down straight. Alfonso originally thought that Henry could say at least a few words, but now it seems…really speechless!
