Chapter 1224： 3 series pressure
As the host, Hugo was very busy tonight. He spoke with Sandra for less than a short time before being called by the group of Steven and David, and then after a lot of calls from producers. After socializing, Leonardo and Pedrola were filled with three beers and were almost pushed into the swimming pool by Alex. When Hugo finally found a moment to rest, Henry came to the door again. coming.
Hugo looked at Henry Bloom, who was lazy and casual in front of him, and couldn't help but smile, "I thought this was a secret base, no one could find it."
At this time, Hugo was standing at the junction of the tennis court and the main body of the villa. There was a dense bush of trees connected to the hills next to it. It was indeed a hidden place. Standing here, you can see the stairs about ten steps away-the stairs leading to the private beach below. Since it was early summer at this time, the young people of Alfonso and Toby went directly to the ground and played in the sea. , So lively.
Henry leaned on the iron railing next to him, holding a glass of whiskey in his hand, gently turning the glass in his hand, the tartar inside hit the wall of the glass, making a clinking sound, as light as a wind chime in the sound of the raging sea breeze, "You are in a rush to move this time." This is an affirmative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.
Henry's words are simple and neat, but they hit the core of the topic directly. Hugo looked over in a little astonishment. Henry turned his head and glanced at Hugo, then looked away and added in a low voice, "But that's fine."
Henry said meaningfully, as if implying something, but as if saying nothing. Hugo opened his mouth to give him a little response, but found that he couldn't do anything. In the end, he just pulled the corner of his mouth and looked down at the honey lemonade in his hand. Cameron just soaked it specifically for him. Worried that he would drink too much tonight, "Yeah, that's good."
Henry took a sip of the whiskey in his glass. "Have you planned for the band's next activities recently?" Hugo looked up at Henry in surprise. Henry seemed to know what Hugo meant and explained, "EMI is asking. Pepe also talked about it with Alfonso that day."
Hugo understood immediately. In fact, it is less than a year since the release of "Bath in the Morning Light", Glory To Death is not in a hurry to release a new album, but the problem still exists.
For EMI Records, after they announced the signing of a new contract with Glory To Death in February, the band has been inactive. This is obviously not good news: the band is either in the promotion, or on the tour, or just in In preparing for a new album, there must always be activity. But Glory to Death was temporarily shelved because of Hugo's busy film career, and EMI was naturally disturbed.
What's more, "Magic Wall ( is currently in the midst of creating a huge historical record. When Hugo moved to a new house, this single had just completed nine consecutive championships, step by step towards the historical record. This pattern is the best opportunity for any record company to make a fortune. They will definitely run more promotional activities and more commercial activities. But EMI Records has been obediently not putting pressure on Glory to death-or just putting pressure on Henry, which is already very rare.
The same is true for band members. After the Grammy Awards ceremony, the band's activities were temporarily suspended. For a rock band, maybe they don't care about publicity, but they are either on the road or creating, life is always inseparable from music. Hugo had been filming the "Seven Deadly Sins" before, and the band members were busy with their own business. Now, when the Hugo movie is finalized and entering the rest stage, it is understandable to ask about the next plan.
Hugo thought for a while and told Henry honestly, "I have been preparing for the third album. I have composed a lot of songs when traveling in Europe, but...I am not very satisfied." This made Henry look at the rain seriously. As a result, he cast a doubtful look, "Henry, you know, the great success of the previous two albums put the band in a very delicate position now. On the one hand, we are eager to continue to create brilliance, but on the other hand, the society’s expectations and popularity The pressure made things more complicated."
Henry understood what Hugo meant, but it was not only for glory to death, but for all rock bands. The third album, this is a threshold.
In the music industry, people generally value the second album more seriously, because either the first album is an experimental album to test the market, which makes the second album a work that shapes the singer’s musical style; or the first album The album is a classic masterpiece that condenses all the talents and styles of the singer, which makes the second album a medium to further prove the singer's ability.
And the same concept, put in rock music, is the third album.
It is generally believed that rock bands have a strong personal style. Either they have a burst of inspiration, no fixed thinking, and just rely on talent to act; or they clearly know their own positioning and needs, and fully release all their talents in the early stage. Whether it’s the former or the latter, at least two albums can be created. After all the accumulated works, talents and inspirations are drained by the two records, the next step is to test their true skills. Therefore, this also makes the first The three albums became a watershed for many rock bands.
Throughout the history of rock music, how many bands shining like a shooting star with one album or two albums, and then disappeared into the long river of history, became the object of people's mourning, but after all they could not occupy an important position in the history of music . Including many bands that have been missed for a long time by later generations, such as goatskin band, oasis band, Shen Yun band, stain band, etc., the real essence is only one or two albums, and Nirvana is no exception.
The third album is like an unwritten threshold-a spiritual threshold. Those who cannot pass will stop here and become a meteor that crosses the sky; those who pass past will become classics and embark on a glorious journey.
Glory to death is naturally no exception. Don’t look at the current results of "Almost Fame" and "Bath the Morning Light", but the better the results, the greater the expectations and the stricter the requirements for the third album. The pressure is getting heavier.
Hugo once tried to make a simple positioning for the third album, just like the first album’s debut in Vanity Fair and the second album’s enjoyment success, but Hugo could not figure out an idea, except for being confused or confused. . Of course, Hugo has to use the existing songs to record an album. This is not a problem, and the quality will not be bad, but Hugo knows that this lacks a spirit of energy, which belongs to glory to death. Always the spirit.
Just like the Nirvana band "Zi. Palace. Inside" album, Kurt Cobain is still Kurt Cobain, and Nirvana is still Nirvana. The quality of the songs is still good, but without the wanton and unrestrainedness. His spirit reveals Kurt's own confusion and confusion.
This is the only way for a musician, just like a breakthrough in acting.
"I feel...like entering a vacuum environment, the whole person is in a state of weightlessness, trying to grasp a direction, but there is no way." Hugo glanced at Henry and let out a long breath.
In fact, he once talked to Fujin about this situation. Fujin thought that although there was musical pressure, Hugo was also at a breakthrough in acting, so Hugo was too tight. Hugo had to agree.
Henry nodded slightly. Even if Hugo didn't say it, he knew that, let alone EMI, he himself was full of expectations for the glorious third album. The attitudes of Pedro and Alfonso are also the tip of the iceberg. They also have some faintly overconfident emotions, believing that the development of the band is going smoothly, and there is definitely nothing wrong with the third album. Even the band members have this idea, so the audience and the media have even more so.
What's more, the current "Magic Wall" results are almost invincible, far beyond everyone's expectations. Even if Henry wanted to pour cold water to cool everyone down, he would not be able to start, instead he would be self-defeating and demoralizing.
It is conceivable that as a glorious and dead soul figure, Hugo himself has so much pressure. It's like... Kurt Cobain at his peak.
Henry was a little lamented. Although he always knew that Hugo had a clear mind and was never lost in Vanity Fair-in fact, Hugo reached such a height in just three years. Even if he was lost, no one could be able to. Blame him; but until today, Henry didn’t know how hard Hugo was in his heart. Behind the halo of genius Hugo's hard work and pressure are far more serious than imagined. .
"Hugo, you have a bottleneck, and this is allowed." Henry's lazy words brought some ridicule, and Hugo couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth. "You need some time to adjust slowly. In other words, time has always been ample, and we have enough time to wait slowly.” Henry glanced at Hugo and added, “Even if the third album comes next year, or even the year after, there will be no problem, I even I would say that this is a matter of course."
The release time interval of the first album and the second album is too close, so the third album slows down, which is absolutely no problem.
Hearing Henry's words, Hugo chuckled slightly, "Are you sure? Roger wouldn't want you to say that."
"Of course he doesn't want it, but don't worry, it's fine to leave the record company business to me." Henry said casually, as if dealing with EMI Records was just eating a piece of cake.
Then Henry didn't say much, but quietly leaned on the railing, tasting his own whiskey; Hugo also stood quietly in the corner, holding the water glass in both hands, feeling the honey lemonade in his hands one by one. Point to cool down, then lift it up, and drank all the water in one breath.
Hugo looked at Henry Bloom, who was lazy and casual in front of him, and couldn't help but smile, "I thought this was a secret base, no one could find it."
