Nice interview. I liked the candid descriptions, things that haven't been heavily covered in other interviews already. And I, especially, like that this one didn't go through the, over done, recap of their hits of yesteryear. I also liked the fact there was a place of inclusion for Andy, without hints of animosity (but still Nick flavored, because anything else would be fake and stupid). Nice read. Thanks for posting. Yes, even the casual DD listener knows their history surely - no need to drag it out in each interview. I liked that a lot about this article

Superb read, thanks for sharing.
"None of us would have been seen dead copying someone else's sound back then", errrm didn't they sort of copy Japan? š¤š

Duran Duran have always copied David Bowie in the sense of reinventing themselves on every album. And on Union of the Snake they Ā«stoleĀ» directly from Letās dance.

Ahead of the interview, there have been instructions from their record label that our conversation must not dwell on the past; instead we must understand that Duran Duran are a band focused on the future.And what did they do for most of the article? Dwell on the past. If the label insists that Duran Duran are a band focused on the future, how does that bode for any super deluxe treatments of albums that have yet to receive it? My view is that DD are in no position to be dictating interview terms to large media outlets.

Very nice interviews. And they (even NR!) give a huge credit to Andy with whom they are on speaking terms still. Speaking of Andy..he is in the UK finishing the touches on a new Andy Taylor album..he is in the studios right now finishing it off--very interesting... Well thatās a coincidence.. must be a reunion on the cards then Andre?

To warrant a space the size The Guardian allocated, theyād have to cover the past. If they didnāt then nobody would be interested in Duran Duran.
