A great performance from Blancmange at the Red Gallery in Shoreditch. Really enjoyed it. They played a range of stuff from Semi-Detached to Irene and Mavis. Long may they continue. I’ll keep going anyway.
Tag: Blancmange
One of the best electronic acts from the 80’s. I love them!
Also hoping to get this tonight …
Which is a new instrumental album from Neil Arthur called ‘Nil by mouth’ and apparently should go on sale for the first time tonight at their show.
I’m looking forward to hearing it.
Hoping to hear some of this later …
Whilst I’m all for Blancmange playing new things, I do of course want to hear some old favourites. There’s nothing wrong with that right?
So I’m hopeful of some classics getting trotted out alongside the new stuff from ‘Semi-Detached’, and also hopefully some bits from ‘Blancburn’ too.
It’ll be an interesting night I’m sure.
Today is Blancmange day!
Their latest album is great stuff, I’ve been listening to it quite a lot over the last few weeks since it came out. There are some really good tracks on it.
And then there was another new album coming from Blancmange
Apparently this will be available at the gigs starting in May. It’s an instrumental album from Neil Arthur and I’m looking forward to hearing it.
Blancmange at Record Store Day
This was one of the things I wanted most to get at Record Store Day this year, and I did. Although I had to get it at Sister Ray, who I thought were really good at organising themselves this year.
It was worth it too. A really good 12″.
Semi Detached Booklet
A nice touch on the CD package actually, and it contains all the lyrics, which is good if you want to sing along and get it right too.
Blancmange’s Semi Detached: CD
Nicely put together album. But of course I’m slightly biased as I’ve been waiting for ages for this to get here. I think I actually ordered it in early December.
Blancmange Semi-Detached comes out today
And I’m really looking forward to listening to it. It’s going to be awesome. I’ve been a fan of Blancmange for years now and it’s been great to see them come back, make new music, play live and still maintain their identity. I really enjoyed the single from the album, so I’m hoping the rest is just as good.
I’m sure it will be.
That single was pretty good you know …
Ok, it’s a bit odd, but then what else would I expect from Blancmange? It’s a good sign that the album will have lots of interesting things to listen to and ponder over.
