Superstar

Roger's expression was very strange. He frowned slightly, and the bitterness and entanglement between his brows could not go away, as if he had encountered an unsolvable problem. He even pressed his lips tightly. It was full of obscurity; but his eyes were warm. The ambiguity of excitement vaguely reflects the turbulence and surging in his heart, like a sea of ​​clouds rolling under the morning sun.

Roger took the headset off his ears, looked at Neil, who was standing next to him, and looked at Henry who was also lost in thought. He opened his mouth and tried to say something, but found that he had countless thoughts in his head. , I can't find a suitable way to express it unexpectedly. Roger bit his lower lip vigorously, thought for a while, and opened his mouth again, but found that he still couldn't say anything. In the end he could only frown, screamed in annoyance, and put it on. Earplugs, "Sorry, Neil, can you play it again?"

Neil and Hugo looked at each other quickly, with a slight smile on the corners of their mouths, and then Neil pressed the play button again. This time, Roger simply closed his eyes and savored.

Hugo and the others are not unfamiliar with Roger’s reaction. When they heard the recorded master tape for the first time, the five members of the Glory to the Dead had almost the same reaction. It is difficult to use correct language. To describe my inner feelings, this feeling is really subtle.

Henry had just listened to it three times in a row, but actually fell silent when sitting next to him. At this moment, Henry finally understood what Hugo meant, and at the same time understood why Hugo asked him to come over in person—only those who have really listened to the finished recording can appreciate the magic of Hugo’s thoughts. .

Is this a live album? No; is this a studio album? Barely. But the most amazing thing is that although it is a studio album, it has both the studio and live effects, as if... as if this is a concert dedicated to oneself.

Glory stood in front of him to death, and played a wonderful concert for himself. Unlike the carnival of everyone in the concert, a concert of one person is more focused, crazier, and more moving. The music in your ears Build a bridge between yourself and the glory to death, as if you can touch the gleaming soul of glory to death by reaching out, the kind of excitement and the subtle emotions, just like...

Henry thought for a long time, but couldn't find an accurate adjective. The only thing he could think of that was the closest to this feeling was the little girl and e in "Alien e.t". The moment when the index finger is connected, it is like connecting two souls, the kind of tsunami that is set off in the depths of my heart, it has been unable to calm for a long time.

As Hugo said, this is a studio album, but the surrounding environmental sounds, including those trivial noises, life-like noises, and noisy engine sounds, make each song come alive and bring glory to death. The singing becomes lively, as if music derives life from the soundtrack of a recording studio. A song is a story and a life.

Henry listened to three songs just now, but they brought very different feelings.

The most amazing thing is that Henry can't help but want to close his eyes, shut off his sense of sight, smell and touch, and only use hearing to feel every place of the melody. When he did so, all the surrounding sounds were quiet, allowing him to fully enter the world of glory to death, and then...then he described the scene of the glory to death and recorded each song in his mind, and outlined Hugo's creation. The background story of each song, the fantasies of glorious to death members communicating and practicing each song...

After the pictures came to life, Henry suddenly realized that he actually imagined the rushes, bumps and frustrations along the way from glory to death—according to his own version, it was as if he was part of a road trip to glory to death. Like a member, he participated in the incredible journey of glory to death, he became a member of the glory to death "walking on the road", he experienced the whole process of walking on the journey and writing history to the glory to death.

That kind of lifelike picture caused an uproar in the inner emotions, and he was completely integrated with the music almost before Henry realized it.

Henry really understood Hugo’s intentions at this moment. He indeed saw the original glory to death again. He also heard the cry from the depths of the glory to death soul. He also participated in the rush and carnival all the way to glory to death... This feeling was so wonderful that he didn't want to wake up from the music at all.

Had Roger not been waiting, Henry hardly wanted to hand over the headset to him, he just wanted to enjoy the wonderful taste of these songs alone. But even after giving the headset to Roger, Henry was still in deep thought at this time.

There is no doubt that Hugo's ideas are not only magnificent, but also great, even the knowledgeable Henry is also amazing. Henry originally thought he knew Hugo enough, but Hugo's amazing talent once again made him lose his language ability.

But why?

Hugo's idea sounds utterly stupid, and it is a suicidal act, but why does it have such a magical effect when really listening to the finished product? Is it just moving the recording studio outdoors? Obviously it is not that simple.

According to normal thinking, there are a lot of noise in the studio album, which is a devastating damage to the sound quality. It almost loses the quality of the music itself, which makes people frown.

At present, magnetic tapes have been fully popularized, and more convenient optical discs have already occupied a certain market, but there are still many people who are obsessed with vinyl records. Why? It is because the sound quality of vinyl records is unmatched by tapes and CDs. Vinyl records perfectly preserve the original appearance of music and become collectors' treasures.

But now that the glory is dead, the recording studio is moved outdoors, and the loss of sound quality is destined to be a failure. What's more, they are not recording live albums. They lack the enthusiasm and noise of the concert, and they lack the appeal. In this case, this recording method is completely inadequate, not up to the world or the ground, hanging in mid-air, not even tasteless.

But the facts are completely contrary to traditional ideas. The soundtrack created by this recording method can't help but be impressed, even surpassing the first two albums of glory to death, making Henry excited. The noise that I thought would be a disaster, but added a sense of reality to the soundtrack, that kind of immersive delicacy and texture, and the melody itself complement each other, let the lifelike picture through Hugo's singing, a little bit One point flows from the ears into the brain, creating an unparalleled experience.

Henry felt that the same method, changing to another band or singer, is almost doomed to fail. The reason why they can shine in the hands of glory to death is because they are glory to death, and they are always the ones running. The bands chasing their dreams on the road, they are always the bands of "Either Glory or Death".

More importantly, this is the glory that broke through the bottleneck to death after more than a year of silence. Without a year of cooling and precipitation, without the loss and confusion of the previous band members, without Hugo’s own breakthrough and reflection, without the band’s breakthrough of regaining passion, then this method would also not be successful.

The right time, the right place, and the right people have made this success of bold and innovative methods. The important thing is never the method, but the soul of the band, and the passion that runs in their blood.

Closing his eyes again, the melody of the song "Navigation ( appeared in Henry's mind again. In Henry's eyes, this song seemed to be recorded in the Grand Canyon of Colorado. Unfolding like a scroll in the sight, this is not the seven days when God created the world, but the year of recombination, connection, and unity after the collapse, division, and disintegration of the glory to death. Every note, every lyrics, every A voice was so real that Henry's eyes couldn't help becoming warm.

Although Henry did not complete the recording of this song with Glory to Death, although Henry did not experience the ups and downs of Glory to Death, and although Henry did not participate in the road trip to Glory to Death, this song "Navigation" was exhausted. Everything. The trivial wind, surging waves, and majestic marching sound set off a stormy sea in the background melody, and endless emotions surged in my chest.

What is even more incredible is that as a singer, UU Reading www. uukanshu. In this environment, com Hugo's strength has been perfectly displayed. As a glorious agent, Henry naturally knows that Hugo has not received professional vocal training. He cannot be regarded as a truly outstanding singer, especially compared with his creative talents, his singing skills are far It is far from perfect-of course, Hugo has always been improving, and his performance on the album "Bath in the Morning Light" has received numerous praises.

But this time, Hugo’s performance is truly amazing. The high and low frequency conversion is easy, the emotion control is just right, and the lyrics are vivid and vivid. The powerful appeal can be deeply felt from every note, "Navigation" Under the interpretation of Hugo, the two songs "" and "Young Volcano(. not only make people excited, but also directly raise the quality of the whole song to a level, which is enough to be comparable to "A Beautiful Day (.day). Strictly speaking, "Navigation" is even better.

Therefore, it is difficult for Henry to describe how he feels, because there are too many emotions rolling in his mind, not only difficult to sort out but also difficult to say. But what is certain is that he knows that Hugo has succeeded, and he has successfully convinced himself to infuse the soul into the third series of Glory To Death, and he has successfully restored his own spirit to Glory To Death.

Turning his head to look at Roger, who is savouring with his eyes closed, even if he can't see his eyes, he can clearly feel the intoxication and intoxication on his face. At least, half of it has been successful.
