Chapter 400: Heaven and Hell

Vivien: They filmed the first four songs, and then ended the video.

On the one hand, the cost of ten songs is still a little expensive, and on the other hand, Charles can't help but eat alone.

Hearing the content of the new album in person, Charles finally understood what a metal love song is, and the name is really apt.

It is an album that combines rock and so-called metal, and it lives up to its name.

Maybe Charles doesn't know much about metal, and he can't tell what makes Black Hole's original style of music better than others. But only from the perspective of traditional rock, the Black Hole is also an out-and-out master band.

Turning back to the fifth track, pressing play, he heard "comfortably?numb" again, and he swore it was the best psychedelic rock he'd ever heard in his life!

Black holes are really a product of the times!

Charles believes that if the black hole had been placed in the era of the Big Goose, they would have become a household name as well!

They believe that Black Hole made the album AB because of nostalgia, and they are very comfortable with this kind of ingenuity.

There are a total of six songs on the A side, and listening to them in one go, it was so cool that Charles almost flew into the sky.

《rock?and?metal》a:

《she's gone》

《still love you》

《the temple of the king》

《sultans of swing》

《comfortably numb》

《another one bites the dust》

Each one made Charles dance as if he were in heaven. Especially the last one, he can't wait to pick up the bass and practice immediately!

I can't figure out why Le?Le is so cute, and her sister Vivian is like a sand sculpture.

However, what they didn't expect was that when they changed the record to the B side, they fell straight from heaven to hell.

Side B also has six songs, but the style is very different from the six songs on side A.

《rock?and?metal》b:

《back in black》

《fear of the dark》

《lady evil》

《painkiller》

《psychosocial》

《everytime i die》

The first three songs are fine, but from the fourth song, the style of the music has become more and more extreme, in addition to the guitar and drums with heavier distortion, the lead singer Cao Wu also seems to be deliberately self-harming, and his voice has become an extremely crazy state.

With the sharp evil of "Painkiller", the overbearing madness of "Psychosocial", and the last song that gives him a sense of fear that the gates of hell are slowly opening, Charles is stunned to find that Black Hole seems to be trying a more extreme, avant-garde style of music that is ahead of its time.

When Vivien listened to "Painkiller," she didn't even hear it in its entirety the first time, the shrill electric guitar and the raucous drums were like a sharp steel knife battered by a hammer, desperately scraping the eardrum and the skull underneath.

The shock brought to her by the six songs on side A has not subsided, and she is a little stunned and a little confused, not understanding why Black Hole would write such a song.

Turned around and listened to the six songs on the A side again, the mesmerizing solo like honey made her intoxicated, she couldn't figure it out, she could write such a beautiful song, why did Black Hole write such crazy, irritable, and extreme music like "Painkiller"?

She listened to the B-side again without believing evil, and this time she finished listening to "Painkiller", but lost in "Psychosocial".

She originally thought that "PainKiller" was already extreme, but she didn't expect "Psychosocial" to be even more extreme than it!

The machine-gun drum beat of the song made her brain ache, and the roaring of a brown bear swallowing a mouthful of broken glass made her accept her incompetence, and she was finally sure that this kind of music was not her thing.

Her brothers, however, were very excited and seemed to like the style.

Howard, in particular, has begun to shake his head involuntarily while picking up the drum sheet of "Psychosocial".

"Oh!god!" Howard covered his head and moaned happily, "Batuu is the best drummer in the world! Did you hear him? His performance in PsychoSocial, oh my God? How fast is his hand speed? Why does his kick drum step like a rapid-fire cannon?"

Charles excitedly said, "Did you hear the bass in 'Lady?evil'?

Vivien frowned, "Do you all like this extreme style?"

Mike laughs, "I didn't get used to it the first time I listened to it, but when you get used to this ferocious style, you'll have an extraordinary experience like never before." I find out I can't listen to psychedelic and folk rock anymore, what should I do?"

Vivian waved her hand unhappily: "I really don't understand, Black Hole can sing such a nice metal love song, why write such a ...... I don't really want to use that word, but these notes are hard to call music anymore. ”

Mike laughed, "Haha! Calm down, everyone's music tastes are different, didn't you even listen to rock like "have?a nice day" before? ”

"Perhaps......" Vivien sighed, "I still like the black hole of metal love songs." ”

The same divergence arose between Black Hole fans in China, China, Carnata and the United Kingdom.

Especially in China, the first time Black Hole's new album was released, the album was placed in front of the table of almost all music company bosses in the industry. People involved in the music industry, whether musicians or music critics, listened to the album for the first time.

The media doesn't need Xinghai to remind them, they have already prepared a press release, just waiting for the album to be released and grab the front page headlines.

On the day of the album's release, the data of various platforms was updated synchronously and in real time, and the digital sales of this album broke 10,000 in just 1 minute and 13 seconds, 200,000 in an hour, and 1 million in 24 hours.

However, on the very next day, voices of skepticism began to slowly emerge on the Internet.

On the Cool Cat Music platform, the number of comments on all the songs in the album broke 999+ as early as the first hour of release.

The comments on the first day were full of comments such as "sofa", "front row", "good!", "buy first, talk ahead", etc.

However, when "Painkiller" appeared in the ears of fans, different opinions began to appear in the comment section.

"I'm a fan of Black Hole, but I'm the only one who thinks this song is too loud and not good?"

In the beginning, such opinions were only a minority, and most people were in favor of them.

"I think it's cool, black holes are always innovating, great!"

"The guitar is so enjoyable! Batu's drums are bursting!"

……

However, as time went on, more and more negative reviews began to appear.

"Admit it! In the last few songs, Cao Wu is just singing blindly, okay?"
