  • Duran Duran' DANSE MACABRE DE LUXE is released on Streaming

    Coming a year after the release of their celebrated album, the revamped DANSE MACABRE DE LUXE is released on digital October 11, with the CD version confirmed for release on October 25 via Tape Modern under exclusive license to BMG.

    Nick says: When we released our Danse Macabre project last year it was born from a spontaneous decision to pull together a record which celebrated the madness and joy of Halloween. In doing so, we unlocked an unexpected box of curiosity and creativity, which led us to reimagine some of our older songs, record cover versions of some of our favourites, and write several new pieces.

    This year, the inspiration was somehow still lingering, and I loved the idea of expanding the collection, because we could… Why not add some of the songs that we considered initially now that we had the luxury of a little more time? This thought resulted in another new song, a cover of the ELO classic, Evil Woman, and a remake of New Moon on Monday.

    The Danse Macabre De Luxe vinyl box set also includes several additional tracks which make it even more special. This somehow feels like justice for vinyl collectors!”
