Our Take

This latest release from folk rock legends AMAZING BLONDEL is a delightful romp through the spooky landscapes of Transilvania in Dead/Live. Drawing inspiration from the legends of Count Dracula himself, this album is equal parts haunting and toe-tapping.

From the very first track, "Blood Moon Rising," you are transported to a realm of dark forests and misty moors. Tony Visconti's production perfectly captures the eerie atmosphere, with every pluck of the lute and every haunting vocal line sending shivers down your spine.

But don't be fooled by the spooky theme - AMAZING BLONDEL inject their trademark wit and charm into every lyric. Tracks like "Vampires Love Folk Music Too" and "Fangs For The Memories" are as clever as they are catchy, proving that this band hasn't lost any of their sparkle over the years.

The live tracks on this album showcase AMAZING BLONDEL's incredible musicianship, with every member of the band shining in their own right. From the intricate fingerpicking of Terry Wincott to the soaring vocals of Eddie Baird, every moment feels like a celebration of folk music at its finest.

In conclusion, Dead/Live is a must-listen for any fan of folk rock, vampires, or just good music in general. AMAZING BLONDEL have proven once again that they are a force to be reckoned with, and we can't wait to see what they have in store next. Bite into this album - you won't regret it.
