They are seriously one of the greatest bands of their era. Everything they made is profound and lasting
ha ha ha ha
You're right
Absolutely
So much talent - Fantastic band - Superb lyrics - It just grabs you! Never understood why they weren't more popular in England!
I saw The Sound a few times in the early 80's and they were outstanding - so much more natural raw energy than most bands of their era - Adrian ( R.I.P ) was an amazing songwriter - From The Lions Mouth was a favourite album of mine.
Best version of "I Can't Escape Myself", according to my opinion.
Your opinion has been Peer Reviewed as Factual.
agree with your opinion
@@soysaucehairdye7869 yes true!😂
Hothouse version is also better here imo.
Outstanding British post punk band, miles ahead of the other.
his punk band, the Outsiders was the first punk lp self-released (recorded at his parents home, engineered and financed by Dad). Its also awesome and finally reissued. This stuff is an extension and progression of that poorly recieved lp that is still in demand. Critics were wrong that time. Hard to push a self released album in those days. Plus this stuff left it nearly forgotten.
this is some of the best stuff i've ever heard.
Borland was a tortured genius and the musicianship from all the band, fuuuk! How the hell they went under the radar, God knows. The keyboard guy was soooo integral to their overall sound (the overall Sound :) I loved this band from the mment I heard them all those years ago on some road trip up to Nottingham with my friend Dave. It was like him goin , listen to this ( he played the whole album From the Lion's Mouth') - then me goin' , "Yeah, its good ' in a casual sort of way; then Dave plays it again and I go ' Bloody hell they're fantastic'!
Thought just the same
Massively underrated.. Bloody hell, what a band. We all suffer from angst from now and then. Borland had it in spades. 30 years on I still like to think I get "it". Trouble is my daughter now lives in Australia, is older than I was 30 years ago and angst is so old skool. She has swum with sharks, rays, and dolphins and loves her life. Love you kid.
Such a great band.
Taut, exciting and urgent. Saw them supporting The Jam in Paris, so good, Borland is much missed.
this is the peak of music. this band and the chamaleons done all could be done
+Cem S Yes I agree, but add it Josef K and Bubaiskull.
Comsat angels and u must add the smiths .but the sound and talk talk were the best the 80s had to offer
best group underrated :-(
Adrian... my icon R.I.P.
great band...great .music... great words......,thanks Adrian..........from Italy
Una gema perdida, alucinantes temas.
The fast that this band is unknown to most is one of life big mysteries, Brilliant from start to finish. This is an incredible recording.
Agree it's almost like they were deliberately kept out and ignored. Awesome band such a tragedy.
is unknown because is Brilliant from start to finish
Fantastic. Thank you!
Their music is as fresh today as it was back then, great live, as well.
Amazingly good music....
Beautiful sonic representation of the human spirit...rip AB♡♡♡
Oh I agree ....they were great ...just stumbled on this now .... remember "who the Hell makes those missiles .." !! and .... "I cant escape myself "
Great production...& how I love this version of Unwritten Law - & probably the rest too!
Great Songs Great Band.
"The Unwritten Law',the good die young...
great reverb on escape myself
You're welcome! Epic band, yes, but also sadly overlooked. All my uploads are about forgotten bands that deserve more recognition, so thanks to you (from Buenos Aires).
RADIO SUICIDIO Muchas gracias, merci beaucoup, arigatou gozaimasu. Yes, inexplicably not promoted. Then again, Joy Division didn’t get their due until Ian ended it all. Sadly, 2 musical geniuses took their lives. Wonder if they’re hanging out up there together. Both tremendous losses, yet Adrian got cheated. Strange eh?
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow forgot the account password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me
@Chance Parker instablaster ;)
@Justice Miles thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and im trying it out now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
GREAT ADRIAN BORLAND!!! R.I.P., MAN! THE SOUND SOUNDS FOREVER!
Yo no había nacido pero yo si amaba tu banda y tu voz Adrian.
X2
GREAT!
Adrian Borland, RIP
gone but not forgotten
So nice to find this particular recording, featuring some of the best renditions of my favorite Sound songs from that early part of their run. Such a great band. Thank you for uploading!
"From the safest places come the bravest words ..." Man, still and ever so true. AB was a magician with words. Oh, and his band was great, too. The Sound had everything.
a must have album
gracias por existir the sounds
Awesome absolutely wonderful thanks for upload these dudes r killer!!! Great live yep u bet!!!!!!!!!.........❤️👍😻☮️🔥🇺🇸😹🦊🙀🎶💎🎶
I saw them a few times in the 80s and I loved the energy and the channeled depression live, a great band
Lucky bastard ❤
Epic band. Thx for uploading!
Greetings from Amsterdam
Sounds more Rock than Pop oriented to my ears,but Post-Punk is definetely accurate. Some great Post-Punk too. The statues remind me of early neofolk as well as bands like Sisters of Mercy,Feilds of Nephelhiem,and Joy Divison as well as Dead Can Dance. Really fits the aesthetic of the music too,sort of that grest early goth sound.
Great band
This is memorable
@22:35 Hothouse is one of my favorite songs all time!
Such a pleasure to listen ...thanx
Millor Grup de Rock dels 90s...!!! amb diferencia..
This is marvellous! I'm quite shocked how the guitar sound is very similar to my beloved Chameleons.. I think this band could have rivalled Echo and the Bunnymen too..
I agree with you about the chameleons/Bunnymen.
I think these bands had
A bit of influence from
Punk music.
However, were more original to develop their own sound.
Really good guitar riffs.
Echo my dudes!!! Great dudes live gigs awesome met MAC many times when toured DC too bad the Sound didn’t get to USA damn we were robbed big time!! This is one killer live band love em!!!!!!❤️👍🇺🇸😻🔥☮️🎶🦊😹🎶💎
Mark and adrian were friends
They did
Hothouse is amazing on this
You can't reach me anymore to the face of fatal flaw,it s about the fear of death
Wow studio level. Amazing band
Famous! Excellent! Merci
+Ieneluiza Luiza Miss Luiza....I love YOU!! I think you have the same good music inspiration!! (-; Where you come from???
Brillante :)
Hope he is playing music, in heaven !
Great tune, cool
new dark age has always been a fave of mine..
I love this shit.
Gracias por dejarnos tan maravillosa música, Adrian
15.00
Buenos Aires good to know you like the sound HOLLAND is coming to win the world cup next year greetings from ARNHEM
This splashy version of Hearrtland contains all of the excitement and defensive energy that we came to expect of The Sound. Kinda like the Jam made into the Jelly.
Nice analysis.
Favotire track off this gem.
genial
Esse som é foda ! Viva the sound !
Esta versión de Hothouse es bellísima, tan solo si la versión final de estudio hubiera sido igual...
Superb band loved em shame they ended up on the continent more than here only saw em once
record.
one of the bitter realities about the music business, i have said for decades that i think had Adrian looked like Ian McCulloch The Sound may have been a huge band, instead they are my absolute favorite band and people never know what im talking about if i mention them.
there are lots of reasons, the industry didnt deem them as marketable because yes the industry is superficial but also plenty of Adrians music was just not pop hit material, which i think is a good thing mainstream 80s pop music is sorta lame haha, also your point about Adrians looks doesnt really go far when considering people like janis joplin made it big despite their mediocre looks. i just feel like its bad luck also ades early political takes were very threatening of the establishment which may have turned some heads and led to censorship.
@@gabrielceballos8789 i wasnt so much saying being average looking or less stopped him from being successful, i was more implying that had he looked great he probably would have done better. as successful as Joplin was or Ma Cass, imagine how much more they would have been if either of them looked like perfect little cute hippie girl Michelle Phillips.
im not sure where you are in the world because that makes a difference, because here in the U.S. Echo and the Bunnymen were not really top 40 hit makers, but they were known. and musically i see no reason The Sounds material couldnt have been as well known, and im sure if Adrian had looked more like Ian he may have gotten more attention. A Flock Of Seagulls are practically still meme famous to this day just because of one temporary haircut. despite most people only knowing one song by them.
My favourite 80s band alongside talk talk and the smiths .has anyone else noticed that bono nicked borlands sound
Can't find a cd or digital copy of this anywhere, cheers
very power music made by a fool till nowday, that i'm old...
Vast is basically an Adrian Borland tribute band.
Hothouse really rocks, sounds a bit like Bono and U2, but even better than U2 from this era.
BON SANg
newer cds of Thé Sound tend to look nicer classier Im an artist but partly color blind.I think Adrian was colorblind with thé covers of albums putting off potential fans.Thats Thé only explanation I see for Thé lack of success of earlier albums.
So you only judge a book by it's cover........?
Es ist zeit für ein rifeifel
'Heartland' - fuuuuuk!!
He had schizophrenia all songs before Heads and Hearts about his feelings
