![]() Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit ( Pacifica project inspired by Duran).Deftones (covered "The Chauffeur" and "Nightboat").The Dandy Warhols (Nick Rhodes produced Welcome to the Monkey House).Beck (attended reunion show at The Roxy Theatre and raved about the band).Barenaked Ladies (perform "Rio" and "The Reflex" frequently in concert).The Bangles ( Susannah Hoffs has performed onstage with Duran several times).aurora (does a trance cover of Ordinary World).These musicians have stated in articles and interviews that they admire and have been inspired by Duran Duran's music: (Moving this from the article until a better way can be found to integrate it.I don't think it would survive VFD as an article on its own.) Notorious BIG influenced by Durans? WHOOA! Argomax ( talk) 14:25, 24 January 2009 (UTC) Reply Anybody could be influenced by anybody else, but if their production doesn't CLEARLY reflect this (as is the case, for instance, of artist Mika mimicking Freddie Mercury), then it's just a waste of cyberspace. I think this section is so vague and far-fetched that isn't even funny. 6 synth pop ( talk) 11:23, 13 February 2008 (UTC) Reply I liked the album but Timberlands influene is all over the album. Then I had another bad feeling when Andy Taylor left the band again. But I had a feeling Duran Duran teamming up withe Justin Timberlake was going to be a bad idea. Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.87.6.102 ( talk) 06:34, 14 July 2008 (UTC) Reply ĭont get me wrong i love the album. 800,000 was only in america not counting any other countrys, so it sold more. Agentseven ( talk) 19:21, 19 March 2008 (UTC) Reply Yamchaken ( talk) 05:18, 27 February 2008 (UTC) Reply Liberty sold > 900,000 worldwide. In Italy however the album did very well as well as Falling down. Both the album and the single did better in the U.S. Also Falling down seems to be a hit as well in U.S. Well I think it actually sold more than Liberty cause the sales moved up to 80,000 copies. RCM has sold fewer copies than even Liberty:ĭuran Duran's Red Carpet Massacre bows at #36 with sales reported at 28,800 (NovemI doubt they've sold substantially more) I think it may be time to engage in a little editorialization. GNRDemocrazy ( talk) 18:46, 15 February 2009 (UTC) Reply Īll of the other paragraphs that talk about the various albums released by the Durans editorialize about their commercial reception except for RCM. And they've influenced a lot of rock and metal bands (Deftones and Korn just to name a few). And New Wave is a genre of rock music anyway, so the word "rock" sums them up nicely. 94.163.117.59 ( talk) 14:04, 25 January 2009 (UTC) Reply Įh? New Wave is not gone, it's still around (Kaiser Chiefs, Franz Ferdinand etc) and as for their rock antics never being strong, take a listen to their later material (guitar solos, heavy rhythm guitars and heavy drums). I did not change the article, anyhow, because the page is currently protected. Tagging Durans with any specific styòle makes no sense whatsoever. They certainly aren't any genre in particular New Romantic music is 26 years gone, so is New Wave their Funk phase is also defunct their Rock antics have never been to strong to begin with and after all, Pop is what all commercially succesful bands make at some point in their career, and also that's what they usually end their career with. ![]() I believe that by now the band should be tagged as an English Pop band, period.
