Astronaut

Duran Duran is coming out with a new album. No, I'm not recommending it or looking forward to it or anything, just thought it was interesting. Apparently the original five members are back together on this album. Astronaut will be the first album they were all together for since Seven and the Ragged Tiger came out in 1983! Not insignificant, since the last good album they put out was Seven and the Ragged Tiger! I liked their first three albums (Duran Duran, Rio, and Seven and the Ragged Tiger) but found their later work to be kinda off. Some was good (the informally named Wedding Album) but most was just a bit off. I wouldn't buy an RIAA-sponsored album, anyway, but I admit to being intrigued.
