Astronaut is the latest offering from the 80s New Romantic Icons-Duran Duran.Although their new material-Reach Up For The Sunrise, Bedroom Toys, Astronaut, Want You Back, etc-is not a shade on their original 80s classics-its still a tightly wrapped blast of feel-good pop.The packaging is really funky and with a limited number of the cd you get a cute little booklet and a FANTASTIC DVD of the boys back on tour last year,2004-Wembley and Birmingham(their home town) being the feattured gigs-with 5 wonderful songs, including Reach Up For The Sunrise, Wild Boys and Hungry Like The Wolf.It also shows behind the scenes footage, interviews and general Duran shananigans-any fan will love this!I was lucky enough to see them play at Nottingham Ice Arena on this reformation tour-and as my photos of the night came out far from great, this was FAB-as it took me right back to that exhilirating gig-20 on from when I first saw them ,as a gob-smacked, hormonal teenager-it was still overwhelmingly amazing, theyre still the sexiest, classiest band on the planet-and I was still the star-struck, besotted screamer-so pleased to see Mr. Le Bon, Mr. Taylor and the GORGEOUS Mr. Rhodes again-still shinig brightly after all this time-the dvd that you get with Astronaut captures the moment-FLAWLESSLY.

Great review, used to love Duran back in the day

I saw them live twice back in the good old 80's but not really kept up with their recent stuff. Must have a listen - Lexy

Ah, Duran Duran. I've heard bad thinks about this so I'm glad you like it.
