  • The Sound live! La edad de oro, Madrid University, Spain, October 3, 1984. This was the encore of the show. Hence the band coming onstage at the onset of the clip. Touchingly, Adrian dedicates the song to Ian Curtis (R.I.P.) and New Order.

    All I know is that the Sound lived in my walkman when I used to walk around as a teenager. When I found Adrian was dead a few months after the fact I felt complete remorse that someone who did so much for me when I was down and alone, was dead.

    This is the best song by THE SOUND, undoubtedly! I couldn't stop listening to FROM THE LIONS MOUTH all Summer 1982. It supported the depression I had. Life made no sense. I was only 15.
    At 28, I started a psychotherapy. One of the best things I've ever done. Now, at almost 42, I feel happy. All the nightmares from back then seem to belong to a prehistorical phase of my life.

    Saw The Sound a couple of times in the UK. Once supporting Echo & The Bunnymen and another time sharing the bill with Comsat Angels. Fantastic gigs. I was too young to appreciate the emotion in their work then but, damn, do I ever now. I'll never get tired of listening to The Sound. RIP Adrian...

    Absolutely brilliant performance!!
    Adrian's improvisational solos remind me of Gang of Four's Andy Gill. Very angular, sharp and biting. The perfect contrast to the smooth back up of the band.
    What a tragedy...you are deeply missed.

    I strongly recommend to anyone who likes the sound, but not familiar with their whole discography, their live album called "the sound in the hothouse", the one before they break up..it's the music at it's best..genuine singing, heartfelt melodies and some musical composition that hardly anyone has ever attained since...If I had to listen to one single album before I die, it would be it...

Go, in the Opposite direction, is perhaps what he later alludes to!?!? :-)

    This is not Madrid University, this is the Studio 1 of TVE, in the program La Edad de Oro. Unfortunately this song was recorded but not included in the final broadcast. Usually the program was aired live but this time was pre recorded and they edited leaving 2 songs out, this one and Sense of Purpose, I think.
    Amazing band. One of the best ever.

  • @pyenapple
    @pyenapple  14 лет назад +1

    @Palominoid I guess because it always got Adrian down that they never broke that barrier. Granted, he was down anyway...but from what I've read, he had a hard time reconciling all the energy and passion the group put into the music with the relatively small splash The Sound's existence made in culture. Whereas, of course, certain other groups made it big without having to pay their dues...or really having genuine music. It's easy for US to look back now and be more OK with it than he was.

    And then we were talking about suicide and facing up to death and the girl in the green shirt put another record on the jukebox. And then Adrian was talking about Ian Curtis and a song he'd written about him for the new Sound album. It was called "Silent Air' and Adrian thought it was a kind of farewell; not a morbid tribute, not an attempt to polish Joy Divisions shining myth: just a kind of farewell. Typical of much of the new Sound LP, "Silent Air" is dignified, stately, carefully poised; it also burns with a secret optimism: staring into the darkness, the Sound refuse to be blinded by the night. Borland might be able to acknowledge the depression at provoked Curtis' suicide, he can respect his memory; but he refuses to see death as the only answer to life's terrors.
