Album Review: Duran Duran, "Red Carpet Massacre" (Epic)

Duran Duran had smatterings of 'rock band' in their persona back in the 1980s heyday, but underneath it all there was a strict code of dance that was adhered to (i.e., 'The Reflex,' 'Wild Boys,' 'Is There Something I Should Know,' etc.). In the opening seconds of 'Red Carpet Massacre,' what comes out of the speakers is the unapologetic dance-floor fodder of 'The Valley.' And even though John Taylor throws a little bit of funky Larry Graham bass-slapping in there, if you stick your head out the window, you can probably hear ex-guitarist Andy Taylor screaming, 'See? I told you.'
