Really liking this one, Duran are back with a bang.
Check out the New video on my page. (QUESTION ft DURAN DURAN) "TAKE IT BACk" from the finest hour off the Astronaut Album. Let me know what you think???
There's a reason this record never saw the light of day. I've heard that it's completely different than ANYTHING the band ever did before. Not even CLOSE... and probably their best/most INTERESTING record. Michael Patterson is an awesome producer! He gets bands to REVEAL who they REALLY are.. to take away the mask and captures it on tape. What would that sound like?
I personally Love RCM and Liberty , my favorite is Meddazzaland , and this band is always changing and have 13 albums , not one is the same at the other , the root is the music , in one thing agree with everybody , The labels are greeddy bastards !!!! ...
Liberty's the pits in my opinion (confused, lack of direction, only a few decent songs among totally abysmal tracks), but I don't understand all the dissing of RCM. Granted, it's probably their most contrived album, but it's also one of their more consistently decent albums since the early years - not really a bad song on the album, which is probably why they were so confident in performing it in full back when it was first released.
Uh-oh. Don't say Reportage around Duran fans. It's opening up a can of worms. But, IMHO I would love to hear it. Andy is a great guitarist and I just prefer original line up Duran Duran. The clip of the song you can hear Simon working on sounds interesting.
PLEASE just release the "Reportage" CD before the dust is too thick on it and it becomes a sad and dated testament to a once great band. ala "Chinese Democracy" by "Guns-N-Roses" (who are NOT Guns-N-Roses at all!
True, as was the first album and SATRT and everything after that. They make their own music and they choose to change it up. It is so stupid for all of those people who called themselves fans back in the early 80s to come back around now like they are still fans and then to act like they were somehow betrayed by the band for going in a different direction musically. I'd bet U2 doesn't put up with that shit from people. And you know their stuff doesn't all sound like WAR, nor SHOULD IT!
Huh? What are you trying to say? Duran Duran has always experimented with their sound. Not one of their albums sounds like the one before it or really any other for that matter. They have had some brilliant tracks, but their labels have never given any of them a chance. Of course, it doesn't help that the mass market public buys crap. How else do you explain William Hung and Jingle Cats and Britney Spears?

I believe that most great bands...are basically playing their own kind of musical invention. like u2 is basically playing u2 music...all the time.
Rio was Duran's OWN vision of what rock music was...to them...their interpretation of THEIR WORLD.
IT WAS A SUPERNATURAL GLIMPSE.
THEY SHOULD HAVE DEVELOPED IT FURTHER...
I am ALSO a recording artist with my own original sound.

We need Duran at its original roots. Red Carpet massacre was one bloody disaster. I'd rather listen to Liberty!

That's neither here nor there @ this point. All that really matters is that what they recorded needs to come out someday soon!!!

Don't defend "sellout pop trash". Duran Duran has seen very little of their true to form art, since Rio. NOT THAT WAS THEIR OWN SOUND INVENTION.
IF THEY'D ONLY FORGET ABOUT TRYING TO RECAPTURE THE WHOLE SEVEN AND THE RAGGED TIGER "FAME" ...LIGHTING STRIKES TWICE CRAP...
AND JUST GO FOR IT...CALL UP ANDY...JUST MAKE MUSIC...THAT THEY LIKE, THEMSELVES...INSTEAD OF KEEPING UP WITH THE TRENDS...
BINGO...DURAN DURAN
