Duran Duran - Come Undone (1993)

Polski opis

Opis:
Duran Duran - to brytyjski zespół rockowy. Zaczynał swoją działalność w momencie, gdy na brytyjskiej scenie pojawił się styl new romantic i z tym stylem jest zazwyczaj kojarzony. Utworzony w 1978 roku w Birmingham przez basistę Johna Taylora i klawiszowca Nicka Rhodesa.

Na początku zespół przyjął nazwę RAF (skrót od Royal Air Force), dopiero potem Johnowi przypomniał się niezwykły naukowiec z filmu "Barbarella", Durand Durand, którego imię i nazwisko (po odjęciu "d" z ostatnich sylab) posłużyły za nową nazwę dla zespołu.

English description

Description:
Duran Duran are an English rock band notable for a long series of popular singles and vivid music videos. They were the most commercially successful of the New Romantic bands and a leading band in the MTV-driven "Second British Invasion" of the United States. During the past three decades they have placed 21 singles in the Billboard Hot 100 and 30 in the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart. Duran Duran has sold more than 85 million records.

The band's hit singles include "Planet Earth", "Girls On Film", "Rio","Hungry Like the Wolf", "Save A Prayer", "Is There Something I Should Know?", "Union of the Snake", "The Reflex", "Wild Boys," "Notorious", "Skin Trade" and the James Bond theme "A View to a Kill" in the 1980s, "Ordinary World" and "Come Undone" in the early 1990s, and "Sunrise" and "What Happens Tomorrow" in the 2000s. They have won two Grammy Awards for their music videos.

Duran Duran was created by Nick Rhodes (keyboards) and John Taylor (bass), with the later addition of Roger Taylor (drums), Andy Taylor (guitar), and Simon Le Bon (lead vocals); none of the Taylors are related. The group has never disbanded, but the line-up changed to include guitarist Warren Cuccurullo from 1989 to 2001, and drummer Sterling Campbell from 1989 to 1991. The reunion of the original five members in the early 2000s, leading to the release of Astronaut in 2004, created a stir among music media and the band's fans.

Duran Duran's next album 'Red Carpet Massacre' is due for release on October 30, 2007. The first single is most likely to be "Nite Runner" (featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland). However, there are reports saying that "Falling Down" (produced by Justin Timberlake) will be the first single and will be released on September 11th.
