Comeback 440 unexpected attention

It must be admitted that EMI is the most suitable record brand with outstanding ‘sexual’ among the five major record companies for a reason. EMI Records, with the blood of British rock flowing in the body, not only gave the glory to death enough freedom, but also carefully considered the co-producer of "Save the Band's First Album".

Sheeran Raikkonen, a music producer who studied under Norman Smith, has seven years of experience as a professional recording engineer. He has participated in the album production of top rock bands such as Pink Floyd and has independent production. Ability and a unique understanding of rock and roll, it may be difficult for a music producer to complete a top album production independently, but his role as a assistant at the helm comes on the stage. Cooperating with the soul of the band can generate infinite fire. 'flower'.

At least before the release of the album, EMI’s emphasis on glory to death was outstanding.

The decision made by EMI in the music industry generally believes that this is a big gamble. It's not that EMI has no chance of victory, but that the hope is very slim. EMI'spent' a high bet of five million dollars and devoted all efforts to a rookie band that has been established for less than four months. Even if the band members have Hugo Lancaster in charge, this is still a gamble of a lifetime. If it fails, EMI will be greatly injured in the US market, and it may be difficult to recover in just one or two years; of course, if it wins, EMI will welcome a new situation in the US market since the 1970s.

Industry professionals couldn't help but set their sights on Glory to Death, and the "Rotation ( magazine immediately commented on this contract.

The "Rotation" magazine, founded in 1985, can be regarded as a wonderful work in the American music industry. The magazine has formed a contend with the current "Rolling Stone" Bible in the music industry, but they have a completely different aesthetic orientation from the "Rolling Stone". From the very beginning, "Rotation" locked various non-mainstream music reports and the attention of hip-hop music that had just emerged in the mid-1980s. The magazine's selection of materials has always been bold and unconventional, which is quite different from the conservative selection of "Rolling Stone".

The'trend' of grunge rock led by the Nirvana band is largely "spinning" to the mainstream. This magazine has always had a unique twist on rock and hip-hop music by bands, Prince (), and Beast Boys. Before singers and bands such as (.) and heads (.heads) were widely recognized, magazines began to use them as covers for large-scale reports.

Among the themes of "Rotation" reports, hardcore, country, reggae, experimental music and underground music account for a considerable proportion. It can be said that this is an alternative and independent professional music magazine. Now, after less than ten years of development, "Spin" has gradually grown into a member of the music market that cannot be ignored. Their attention and comments on independent music have been taken as references by professional fans.

This time is no exception. David Marches, the fledgling music critic of "Rotation" magazine, has fixed his sights on the glory to death that has aroused heated discussions in the American underground rock circle in the past three months.

"As an alternative rock band, the road to the rise of glory to death itself is full of alternative magical colors. Starting from San Francisco, all the way to New York, such a band that is incompatible with the current mainstream rock style. Under normal circumstances, it is very difficult to win attention, but Glory to Death relies on their solid performance to achieve this.

In fact, when the band just started, they were faced with the dilemma that the audience could not comprehend their music. It was difficult for them to attract the attention of more than a dozen audiences during the performances in multiple cities. People cried and strongly doubted whether such a band still exists.

But this is the case with any kind of music that is full of sex. People who like it are desperate, and people who hate it hate it. The glorious and deadly music is full of the unyielding and profoundness of British rock, bringing them a large number of faithful songs. 'Mystery', and won their first landmark attention in Memphis, a city full of rock wonders.

Glory to death was in the stage performance showdown with the radio commander band, which relied on ‘cowards, and achieved impressive results. He did not lose the wind, and even entered the sight of the big-name agent Henry Bloom. Glory to death solid performance skills were promoted to the top through the vocalist Hugo Lancaster's incisive performance, relying on solid stage performances to win the hearts and minds of the audience, so this produced a series of cities on the East Coast that are dying for glory. For the crazy lively scene.

From the desertedness of the West Coast to the hustle and bustle of the East Coast, step by step, Glory to Death has won a place in the fierce competition of the underground rock circle.

From the perspective of the music style shown in the live performances from Glory to Death to the present, they have added pop, electronic, hardcore, garbage and other different elements on the basis of metal rock, and they also have the delicate and decadent color of British rock. 'Cai, let people see a style completely different from Nirvana.

The gloriously dying music style is a bold new attempt. It has won the love of many listeners and brought a brand-new trend to the now embarrassed rock market; but it has also caused countless controversies, even Some people think that the band's music insulted'metal rock, the term, and the band's introduction of keyboard players has suffered countless criticisms.

Strictly speaking, the strength of the band has not reached the true top level. The lack of strength of bassist Pedro Casa has become the biggest uncertainty factor for the band, but the drummer Dropnier Fokin Reinhardt , Guitarist Neil Anderson and vocalist and guitarist Hugo Lancaster’s outstanding strength, coupled with the solid foundation of guitarist and keyboardist Alfonso Lopez, in fact, the band has the top level of impact strength.

This also makes the band style a more important uncertainty factor. Whether the band can blaze a trail in a brand-new musical style and give full play to its own strength has become the key point for the band to reach a high level in the future. If you are not careful, the band's solid foundation may be buried among the countless geniuses in the rock music industry because of this bold and adventurous style attempt.

EMI Records obviously took a fancy to the glory to death. The unparalleled impact hopes that Roger Fasson is not dizzy because the band has the topic of Lancaster. This also makes EMI desperate and devote a lot of money to the band. The hard work, with the hope that this album will be glorious to death, can win a sky in the rock market where hundreds of flowers contend, and it also allows EMI to implement the strategy of opening up the American market smoothly.

1993 was a year when hundreds of'flowers' in the rock music market flourished. A large number of outstanding albums such as the Rolling Stones, Metal Band, Queen, U2 Band, Nirvana Band, Broken Pumpkin Band, Bon Jovi, Goatskin Band, etc. Appeared, pushing rock and roll to the second golden year of rock and roll since 1977.

What kind of position will Glory to Death occupy in 1993? It is indeed expected. Let us wait quietly for the first album of this'sexual' band. Who knows if they can become this year. Where's your second goatskin band? "

David Marches did not come to a conclusion in this comment, but he quoted the sentiment that the British media expressed the expectations of the suede band’s first album last year, and expressed his belief that it would be glorious and hopeful to become the United States. The "goatskin band" that the music circle has been looking forward to, relies on the first album to break the shackles of the current rock music market and create a whole new world.

The appearance of the goatskin band is hailed as the beginning of the rise of British rock. Then who will break the dominance of American grunge rock and what kind of music era will be created? David said in the opening commentary. I have lost my doubts and expectations.

Due to the unique'sex' and style of the Glory to the Dead band, although the band's feat of arriving in New York from San Francisco has attracted the attention of many media, such as the "Los Angeles Times" and "New York Times", in fact, the real professional music The magazine did not give the band much attention. After all, there are countless talented and talkative bands in the underground rock circle. There are some bands that shine every year, but few can actually break into the public eye.

Therefore, this time Glory to Death signed a contract with EMI Records. There are not many media reports. The Los Angeles Times and the New York Times both gave pages, but unfortunately they are only the size of tofu. However, in professional music magazines, although professionals are The discussion was very lively, and I would express my opinions after the rest of the meal, but only "Rotation" formally wrote the article for comment.

At first, people thought that the news of the Glory To Death signing to a record company and the upcoming release of a new album is just like that. They can no longer create more topics, but they don’t want to "rotate". This issue of the magazine has sold a full 250,000 copies. It is on par with this week's "Rolling Stone" with Madonna as the cover~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is really beyond the spectacle.

It seems that the influence of Glory to Death across the United States is far more powerful than the industry predicts. This is also the result of the fact that people cannot make statistics on the entire North American land states under the current circumstance of news occlusion. Of course, professionals are more willing to attribute this situation to the additional topic effect brought by Hugo. After all, Hugo has shown his musical talent several times before and after, and this time he finally became a member of the band. Signed a record company, turned this matter into a reality, attracted a lot of attention, and "Sleepless in Seattle" is still being released, and the power is still there. That's why this issue of "Rotation" magazine has achieved this. Amazing sales.

As for the market prospects of the first album of Glory to Death, people still maintain the conservative concept of "gamble". On the one hand, they are faintly looking forward to what the band will achieve; on the other hand, they believe that Hugo, as an actor, should lead the band members. It is too difficult to make a **** road in the music world; at the same time, everyone does not think that the glory to death can win attention when there are endless rock and roll masterpieces this year.

But no matter what, it’s a mule or a horse. After all, it’s going to be taken out for a stroll. Even if the media’s attention is no longer lively, the band must first concentrate all its ‘essence’ on the recording of the album. This is the business.
