New Romantic/'80s-pop standard bearers Duran Duran were so perfectly representative of the musical zeitgeist of the '80s that few would have predicted they'd remain a viable entity in the 21st century, but as 2007's RED CARPET MASSACRE proves, the former teen idols have beaten the odds. The band manages to keep things contemporary without abandoning their classic sound; there are dance beats and touches of contemporary R&B and even hip-hop ("Skin Divers" features a guest rap from Timbaland), but the '80s Duranisms are always within reach. Singer Simon Le Bon is as much the Brian Ferry-gone-clubbing frontman as ever, by turns seductive and commanding, and Nick Rhodes's keyboards still retain that frothy, new wave sparkle that put the sugar coating on the group's many hits.
