The comeback of the East Mountain 426 sees the true chapter.

From the fifth floor to the fourth floor, it was a different scene, this was obviously the usual place for the band to rehearse, practice, and record, and the classroom could be vaguely seen through the glass frosted 'door', Roger casually pushed open the large 'door' of a practice room next to him, and took the lead in walking in, followed by Henry.

Walking into the practice room, you can clearly see the silver-gray soundproof wall in the "milk" yellow "color" light, and the "door" entrance has a heavy wooden "door" in addition to the glass "door", which is obviously done absolutely complete sound insulation measures. In the practice room, there are all the instruments that the band needs to use, and on the other side of the shelf, there are Western instruments such as horns and violins. Compared to the makeshift practice room that Glory to Death set up in the warehouse behind the Al Bar, this is paradise.

Roger walked over to the couch across from the band and sat down, and Henry, as if he was too tired, immediately found a place next to Roger. Henry waved his hand as if impatiently, "Now it's your showtime, do everything you can to convince this old guy next to me, and if he's not satisfied, I'll hit him on the head with a guitar." Henry's words made everyone in the practice room chuckle.

Roger didn't have time to do these kinds of bickering with Henry, and after he sat down, he blatantly looked at the band's movements, and even deliberately restrained his smile and examined the band's preparations with a critical and strict look. Roger is deliberately putting pressure on the band, before the "New York Times" boasted so much, and there was the rendering of the "handover" in the office on the fifth floor just now, Roger is clearly saying: I have high expectations for you.

People know that it is not easy to win high praise under high expectations, and if you are not careful, you will smash the pot, not to mention that the band performance is an important factor in the impromptu performance.

The members of the band had been curiously looking at the dazzling array of equipment in the practice room, but after hearing Henry's words, they had to withdraw their attention and start looking for their favorite instruments, and the next audition was the focus rather than the practice room.

Roger's eyes were not too disguised, everyone could feel the kind of scrutiny on their backs, but the band members didn't seem to notice, but Alfonso looked at his teammates with some uncertainty, he saw the bold Pedro excited, and then saw Neil and Fokine's attentive expressions, and then saw Hugo's gaze, Hugo's gaze was full of infinite confidence, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth

Alfonso soon realized that they had performed nearly 200 performances along the way, and if you add the performances on the streets of Los Angeles, the number must be more than 200, they were not a fledgling band, they had been through trials big and small, and today's performance could not be regarded as a test at all, because the most discerning audience in the world was not Roger Fasong or Henry Bloom, but the general audience.

As a result, Alfonso's impatience settled, and like his teammates, he began to focus on tuning his instruments. For a while, Roger and Henry became spectators, as if there was no zài at all, and the band members were not in a hurry, but patiently and carefully adjusted their instruments.

Hugo's attention was also highly focused at this time, he knew that on this occasion, in fact, the band often only had one chance to perform, that is, one song, and the best case would never exceed three songs, after all, this was an audition, an occasion to observe the band's potential and strength, not a live performance. So there is no time to warm up to the glory to death, only a chance to sing

The band chose "Don't be upset about the past" (do.look. ba。 Anger)", not because of the quality or arrangement of the song, but because it was this song that brought Fokine and Alfonso to the band in the first place, and this song has a special meaning for the band and is also the song that the band members can resonate with the most.

When the calm keys sounded to cut into the main song, Roger's pupils shrank slightly, although he had heard Henry say that this band had a different style, but the keyboardist actually occupied such an important position, which still surprised Roger.

"You are tired of it, because you can't find the place where you can realize your dreams, and when you say you give up, all the hard work you've put in will disappear without a trace."

Hugo's singing echoed in the practice room, gently tugging at Roger's heartstrings. In the practice room, the sound of the instrument is easily amplified because of the sound insulation effect, but because the human voice itself cannot be compared with the resonance of the instrument, especially if the instruments of the whole band resonate together, the singer's voice is easily drowned out by the music.

But this was not the case at this time, and the band members took advantage of their change of priorities to control the volume of the music and did not completely let go of their hands to play. Although this seems to tie the hands and feet of the band, it unexpectedly gives the music a hidden melody of energy, as if it could find an outlet to burst out at any moment.

And Hugo's interpretation is even more eye-catching, he stands in place and sings freely, looking like he has no strength, but his voice shuttles freely in the melody, integrating the power of the lyrics into the melody, making the whole orchestra become one, and that delicate emotion flows out silently. Maybe the listener didn't hear the lyrics clearly at all, but the whole love xù was unconsciously dragged into the world of the song.

"So, I'm going to start from the 'bed'. on the start of a revolution. Because you say that my mind has been overwhelmed by my mind, and beyond the 'door' of my house is the middle of summer, and when you stand by the fire, the light of the fire reflects your face red, and the hope in your heart burns like the flame. ”

Hugo's voice began to slowly increase, and that sincere emotion was like an epiphany, slowly blooming in front of Roger, and that wonderful beauty made Roger lose all words. At this moment, Henry, who was sitting next to him, gathered all his breath, as if it had disappeared, and sat quietly in place, the lazy feeling gradually spread, but looking closely at Henry's eyes, he could clearly feel that the unfocused eyes had fallen into deep memories, and in Hugo's interpretation, the love xù was like the black and white keys on the keyboard, tinkling.

At this moment, Hugo's voice slowly rose to a critical point, and then released along with the melody, "So Sally can wait......" The love that the whole band was brewing suddenly exploded at this moment, especially the sound of "So" and "Sally" burst out like thunder, detonating the heart, and all emotions filled the brain, and the brain went blank in an instant, "She knows that even if you wake up too late, even if you have been abandoned by everyone, her green" Spring is fading, but I remember you saying don't be upset about the past. At least not today. ”

Roger exclaimed, he had to marvel, marvel at such a band that has always been full of magical magic, whether it is the addition of keyboards, or the use of guitar and bass, the band is incompatible with the current 'tide' flow, and the simple chords have not lost the charm of the guitar, but instead make the music full of a surging 'excitement', if the colorful light spots are generally gradually blurred in the line of sight.

And the lyrics of the band are full of infinite possibilities 'sex', the simple sentence "don't be upset about the past", it has caused countless reveries in people, the band's rebellion, publicity, firmness, and wanton are hidden in the melody, and Hugo's warm voice is released, which makes people indulge in it unconsciously.

When the song was over, Roger still didn't come out of the music, he just realized that the world was quiet, and the itchy feeling in his heart made him adjust his sitting posture a little, and coughed lightly, "Do you have any other tracks?" ”

"Of course." The answer was Hugo, Hugo looked back at his teammates, and began to perform the second song, "Second Chance", this song is slightly different from the first song in style, the whole song is more rugged and strong, and the catharsis of love is like a column of water hitting the heart directly.

The overall style of the first song is rough and gray, with a Beatles-esque lyrical 'color', very much like a band from Britain; The second song is actually rougher, but more rock-intensive, and the impactful hardcore style shows Hugo's high-span vocal range.

In fact, the first song is more delicate, and the shock comes from the heart; The second song is more rugged, and the shock is directly aimed at the eardrums. But overall, it can be regarded as alternative rock, with concise and clear guitar chords, increased use of keyboards, and the vocals' singing is not 'fancy', but more relies on hard power to interpret the song.

This style has a distinct form that is very different from the current global popular rock, but it is full of infinite possibilities. The most important thing is that the overall strength of the band is very harmonious, and the cooperation of the five links makes people unable to see flaws.

In fact, Roger noticed that when the first song was first played, the rhythm and melody were a little disjointed, and the cooperation between the bass and the drum kit was also a little off, the bass player was a quarter beat faster, which was obviously the most common expression of overexcitement, but the band quickly adjusted, and the complementarity between each other was responded to during the performance.

Roger knows that this kind of tacit understanding is absolutely impossible without the run-in of one or two hundred performances, and this perseverance is really admirable.

In addition, the potential of the band also made Roger's eyes shine. What Roger needs is a band like Glory to Death who has the courage to break the shackles, and now there are countless followers of Nirvana bands in the entire rock music market, as if all of them are remake Nirvana bands, but no one can ever surpass Kurt Cobain, just like after the Beatles made a classic, there are countless bands that want to copy the Beatles, and even the British local media like to say at every turn that "so-and-so band has the hope of becoming the successor of the Beatles", but it will never be realized.

Therefore, Roger saw the possibility of 'sex' in Glory to Death, they followed the advantages of the previous bands, and did not deny these, for example, the first song has the shadow of the Beatles, and the second song can also see the advantages of the current mainstream heavy metal rock; But they bravely broke the mold and played their own style. This possible 'sex', coupled with the band's own strength, is full of infinite possibilities.

Roger realizes that he has found a treasure. Of course, to be precise, it was Henry's ruthless eye that dug up the treasure
