  • Documentary about Adrian Borland and The Sound.
    The tragedy of Adrian’s battle with himself and his disease balanced with his joy and love of life and his creativity. It’s irrelevant whether you know of Adrian or The Sound or not. This is the universal story of the razor’s edge that so many artists walk between heaven and hell.

    I just found out about this band recently on a Spotify playlist. I’m a huge post punk music fan, and I cannot believe I have not heard of The Sound before
    Very sad to learn that they never achieved the fame they descended, and that their main songwriter suffered so greatly.
    Rest In Peace, and thank you for the music.

    Just watched this great documentary at its premiere at the IDFA at Melkweg Amsterdam. Adrian's father, friends and band members tell his heartbreaking life story in this must watch movie. All the clips, live performances and pictures of Adrian in this movie are great.The most important role is played by Adrian's work, his music and his extraordinary lyrics. After this movie the crowd was very silent before the big applause that followed.

    Puede que recuerdes a The Sound, un grupo británico fundamental en la escena post-punk de los 80, pero que no alcanzo grandes titulares, una de esa bandas excelentes que no alcanzó el éxito mayoritario. Su líder, Adrian Borland (1957), se suicidó en 1999 dejando un rastro de tristeza y misterio sobre un gran talento malogrado. El cantautor británico padecía depresión y trastorno esquizo-afectivo, el documental “Walking In The Opposite Direction” se estrenó en el Festival Internacional de Documentales de Ámsterdam en 2016, pero es ahora cuando se publicará en DVD el 12 de junio. Y se anuncia con subtítulos en cinco idiomas, incluido el español. Ocasión de revisar piezas tan imperecederas como “Winning” y, sobre todo, indagar en las inquietudes del corazón de un hombre que, antes de sucumbir a sus propias fantasmas, los transformó en hermosas canciones. El filme retrata su trayectoria usando material de archivo, entrevistas con ex miembros de la banda y críticos musicales, testimonios de su familia y de su entorno más cercano, además rescata canciones inéditas.
    El propio Adrian Borland cuenta su versión a través de las canciones que se reproducen en la película. De hecho, "Walking in the Opposite Direction", el título del documental está tomado de una de las canciones del músico que cuenta la historia de su vida. Borland comenzó su carrera musical en el trío punk The Outsiders, que en 1979 pasó a formar parte de The Sound. Su álbum debut "Jeopardy" (1980) es visto por muchos como una obra maestra, a pesar de ello las cosas empezaron a ir cuesta abajo para Borland que vivió y trabajó durante años en los Países Bajos y Alemania. Regresó a Inglaterra en 1999 para trabajar en lo que se convertiría en su último álbum, de arrebatadora intensidad. La batalla del artista, entre el cielo y el infierno, consigo mismo y su enfermedad acabaría finalmente como te he contado.

    After waiting years for the documentary to get released and being a fan for so long and feeling so close to the lyrics, the music and the sound of the sound I have to say it was merely disappointing to me. I expected something else I guess…
    Though I am greatful this band receives some attention, I wished it to be more a detailed documentation on how the records were made and what was going on at the time regarding the members.
    So for anyone that is expecting a musical insight on the bands life and the discography, I can say it focuses mostly on Adrian’s disorder. Which is also interesting. But when it comes to music documentaries I care mostly about the process and the appreciation of the individual albums and the music. I think it’s sad that certain records weren’t mentioned because they are so good and have guided me through so many difficult times.
    Still you have to respect all the effort that was put into this project and the people behind it.
