DEAD CAN DANCE - Garden of the Arcane Delights
12" EP 4AD Records 1984 I'm still awestruck after attending last night's Brendan Perry gig, so here it is: a personal favourite to underline the occasion... ENJOY
I've always had a problem with DCD, I would always end up liking only the songs that Brendan was singing! In Power We Entrust the Love Advocated is certainly, in my humble opinion, the song-writing highlight of his career. Still have to old 12"!
Yeah, I kinda know what you mean. Much as I admire Lisa Gerrard's voice - which I really do - the one and only DCD compilation tape I did back in the day ended up having just Brendan's songs...
acabei de ver o concerto em Braga. foi bom, embora algumas canções novas não me tenham parecido nada de especial, com uma presença da bateria geralmente excessiva. a ouvir em disco para tirar as dúvidas.
Tambem estive la (Santiago). Mesmo perfeccionismo de sempre. Gosto do album e concordo ctg acerca das vozes. Gig do ano anterior: Mari Boine em Hamburgo.
All music is posted just for the benefit of a better understanding of what has become known as new wave, post-punk et al. If someone (artist, label) feels that a particular link should be removed, please do let me know. It's that simple. For the rest of you: enjoy and if you like the music buy the records!
