Erasure Q&A

#1 Post by Shopper »

from their cool website...A & V do their own question/answer thingie like PSB and here's one..

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12) I don't want to be too demanding, but what can Erasure fans expect after the new album is launched - are any other projects in the pipeline? (Darren Blunkett)

Vince: We are planning to record an album of Nursery Rhymes/Fairy Tales. 'Sweet and Sinister'.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this true ! or is Vince doing a April 1st :shock:
Left to my own devices, I probably would...

Their lyrics might finally have some depth if this is true.

This is not a new thing. They usually do what PSB do; but after a while...very original aren't they?
The CELL by Stephen King instantly hit number 1 in New York Times Bookseller Lists selling well over 200 thousand copies in three weeks. This affirms my opinion: People really need an occassional good horror read...

Maybe it's just a coincidence, you know. I mean, there are quite a few bands who have this thing and I'm sure the Pets weren't the first ones either...

Suppose if PSB are gonna do a cover album one day (which isn't totally unlikely - there's been a time when they considered it seriously), won't it be PSB imitating Erasure then?

Erasure's site is so much cooler. They have a blog, put their pix and generally appear very relaxed and fun. PSB have always been so much more reserved or prim-propah it seems and that Q&A they do is so dumb, or maybe the majority of questions asked are :roll:

There's no one to overcome PSB's sense of humour, especially when answering to the fans' questions, and especially to the so called stupid ones. :wink:
Chris Heath: Why you're surfing?
Chris Lowe: Coz we can!
Neil Tennant: Exactly. :D

(dVTB)
To be fair, they had guitar on their earliest records. However, they did rip off the Q&A idea from the PSBs who ripped it off from someone else. Erasure are simply guilty of making their imitations obvious and seeking their inspiration from the same source: the PSBs. PSBs, at least, have the grace to rip off different people.

some more from their site...
--------------------------------------------------------------------
04) How time flies... soon you will be celebrating your twentieth anniversary as a band. Are there any plans to celebrate it? Will there be a special concert or album? (Swen Greve)

Vince: I'll be baking a cake and Andy will be eating it! I'm sure there will be a special gig or tour.

05) What is keeping you inspired to keep going in the music business? (Shazza B)

Vince: A complete lack of any other marketable skill.


10) Are you ever likely to produce a DVD-A album recorded and mixed in full 5.1 surround sound? If you could revisit any of your previous albums and produce it in 5.1 which would it be? (Steve Collins)

Vince: I'd love to remix 'Chorus' in 5.1 surround sound..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chorus remastered would be cool !

Check this for the evolution of their GH album artwork :)
