Stumbled across the fact that Duran Duran had a new cd out, didn’t really expect that. I have never been a great fan of them, but I got a couple of their songs from the 80’s and that I found to be good so I just had to check it out.
I must say they don’t sound as I remember them… I guess they’ve changed sound somewhere along the way. This album Red carpet massacre is a bit more towards pop then I recall them being before. It’s not a bad thing really, it does sound good.
They have managed to maintain a bit of their individuality, they do not sound the same as many other pop music of today. There’s a touch of that rock like sound they had in the 80’s. I’m pretty sure you’d like it if you liked them back then. If you weren’t a fan of Duran Duran in the 80’s, it might be worth a shot now.
