News about the new album

At their June 17 concert in New York City, Duran Duran premiered the recordings of several new songs. I think they sound really cool - including the collaboration with Justin Timberlake, "Nite Runner." This might be the first single.

The band announced that the title of the new album will be "Red Carpet Massacre" and that, as of right now, they're looking at an October release.

If you've heard some of the new tracks, what do you think? Post your thoughts in a comment.

Nick talks about "Instant Karma"

Here are a couple videos of Nick Rhodes discussing Duran Duran's cover of John Lennon's song "Instant Karma," as well as Amnesty International. By the way, DD's version of "Instant Karma" is available on iTunes (it was, sadly, not included on the CD; what a shame).

No more TTP

Duran Duran bassist John Taylor's official solo website, Trust the Process (trustheprocess.com / johntayloronline.com), has been taken down. There will be a new section on the official Duran Duran site, www.duranduran.com, called JT's Vault, which will contain some of the archived information from John's site.
