Our Take

Welcome, fellow music aficionados, to a neon-infused journey with Duran Duran's latest offering, "Astronaut." This album is like stepping into a time machine back to the heyday of the '80s, complete with bouffant hair, shoulder pads, and endless nights full of synthesizer-laden dance parties.

From the moment the first track, "Sunrise," graces your earbuds, you're transported to a world where every beat is a heartbeat and every lyric is a shimmering star in the night sky. The nostalgic vibes are strong with this one, but don't be fooled - Duran Duran have managed to infuse their signature sound with a modern twist that is sure to delight fans old and new.

Tracks like "Want You More" and "Finest Hour" showcase the band's knack for crafting irresistibly catchy pop tunes, while "Bedroom Toys" takes a cheeky dip into darker, more introspective waters. Simon Le Bon's vocals are as smooth as ever, effortlessly gliding over Nick Rhodes' dreamy synths and John Taylor's funky bass lines.

However, not every song on "Astronaut" is a winner. The album does have its missteps, with some tracks feeling a tad derivative and lacking the spark that made Duran Duran icons in the first place. But overall, this is a solid effort from a band that refuses to let time dull their shine.

So buckle up, grab your favourite neon jacket, and get ready to dance the night away with Duran Duran's "Astronaut." It may not be their best work, but it's certainly a fun, quirky ride that is worth taking.
