At the same show they were cranking up their most recent hit "All You Need Is Now" accompanied by an artistically tasteful but macabre video. When I saw them at Chastain Park in Atlanta, Simon Lebon was dancing around in a sequent shirt singing a Lady Gaga song. Duran Duran is a group that is uninhibited in nature, which of course makes for a highly entertaining show.
John Taylor might be storming down the stage with utter fierceness, but a moment later might be playing a verbose funk bass riff. Fueled by the inspiration of the fervency and straightforward delivery of the Sex Pistols and the pure sheen and intricacy of Chic, Duran Duran developed a sound that was a constant contradiction, but nevertheless daring and undeniably fresh.Īt a Duran Duran concert you can catch elements of this dichotic nature. More importantly - is such a thing even possible?! Duran Duran is proof of its success. Who would have thought that merging the decadent disco scene saturated by the yuppie culture and the "no-foolery" stripped down sound of punk would have worked. It is the marrying of these two factors, which make Duran Duran one of the biggest pop bands of all time and one of the most fun acts to see live.
Lets face it Duran Duran has built a huge part of their fame around their stylish sensibilities but they would be no where near the band they are today if it was not matched by their music.
