They are real professionals, the only tech band that played live, and even better than the original song. In Chile we danced their songs in the 80's and 90's.
Yeah, I saw them live in a club. They were mostly using the drum-pad samplers (including Kurt), triggering all the samples and building the loops as they were going. BTW: You might be interested in Thomas Dolby's "Sole Inhabitant" shows (lots of videos here on YT). More electronic music created live.
Information Society, Depeche Mode, Tears For Fears, Spandau Ballet, Howard Jones, Wham! Genesis, The Fixx, Duran Duran. All crucial pieces to what made me become an avid music lover as a child. Nothing else comes close to the sound these new-wave groups had back in the day. Such captivating energy, passion, deliverance and presentation in these wonderful songs. They are so well-constructed and unique. So unlike anything else you will ever hear today! such an incredible sound that leaves you wanting more! Their music was amazing to hear back then, and still is now. Timeless music never dies!
@@thumper300zx Absolutely! Add New Order in as well. I still play and enjoy all of their albums. Low Life is my favorite record by them. Excellent stuff!
I mean can you get any more badass creative than this? What music groups are this talented where they play their own instruments perfectly in sync with one another and sing live like this?
Ah yes, the good ol' days when Kurt Larson was Kurt Valaquen! I have such a huge crush on that dude. These guys are so freaking cool, been a fan since childhood!
I'm from Miami and I saw them Live at a Teen club when the local Radio station broke their song "Running" first nationwide. It was funny because they were using Ironing boards as their Keyboard stands! And Yes they played their instruments Live.....INSOC 4 EVER!
I loved their music. Cool use of samples. Interesting and quirky songs, for example their song "A Knife, a fork and bottle and a cork". I never thought sampling was a flash in the pan. I thought and still think it's an interesting technique in electronic music that would still be interesting now. There's so many options for how to use it in a piece of music.

i heard those guys for firts time 28 years ago was working as a bartender and i said those are two step ahead of the future! the concept was too clear.
Ele nunca sorri, no show no rock in Rio em momento algum o Kurt sorriu. Porém o que era pra ser algo antipático se torna até engraçado. E até hj ele é assim.
quem ai em 18.11 21 ? detalhe pra parte q ele deixa cair o mic da um sorriso sem graça e se perde por alguns segundos , mas tem credito pra porra !!!!!!! a melhor de todos os tempos !
It's so weird that they were being mean to the host.

they are time travellers planted in the past by the CIA to capitalize on conspiracy minded youth in early 21st century harharhar they already knew all the stuff that was gunna happen from 2012-2020's they're bored like "do we really have to do this" hence the Star Trek sound clips
@@velveetaslingshot That's just the way Kurt's personality has always been. It's just his nature to be sarcastic, and it rubs some the wrong way. At least he's honest though rather than be someone he's not.

This band was so intellectually and musically ahead of its time. Fabulous talent that still works today. I wish music in the present was this great.
Thats a long way to say its Boss
Love your comment, female drummer
Saw them yesterday here in Recife - Brazil. Can't believe this guy is sixty years old. Still pure energy from these guys. They still rock!
Eles tocaram aqui em SP e infelizmente perdi, pelo que vi é a turnê de despedida. Parabéns por ter ido ao show
The lead singers hair was brilliant ✨✨✨

Agree, this is cutting edge to do live
MTV don't do this anymore.
It sounds even better than the official video.

Great version, with different sounds and samples, and a gaff or two. At least it was live!

THEY DONT MAKE EM LIKE THEY USED TO
What happened to the microphone at 4:02 ? Other than that great show! I love Kurt and James' outfits in this! :)
If it were happened with milli vanilli? Ouch...
He’s fucking with you. 🙃
Speed racer quoting lets go see!
Why The Quality Is So Bad? Maybe Most Videos Of Information Society Classic From Mtv Never See, You should uploaded Man.😎
💓💘😅😂😍
Can Kurt be any more lovely?
LOL
😂
They close by announcing tomorrow's musical guest is Tom Jones
🤣

He was clearly messing around, he has a stage manner.
He was seconds away from a musical performance that could make or break his career. I think its safe to say they were nervous and compensating.
@@velveetaslingshot That's just the way Kurt's personality has always been. It's just his nature to be sarcastic, and it rubs some the wrong way. At least he's honest though rather than be someone he's not.
@@arcadetransylvania2066 People are too dumb to understand it.
The lead singer is actually the father of actor Seth Green
Who is Seth Green ? 😮
Engraçado ver que o Kurt sempre caga para o entrevistador desde sempre. É um traço dele que não mudou. Ele deixa claro que se sente visivelmente incomodado com o simples fato de ter que falar. Aí começa a falar coisas curtas, sem sentido, apenas para gastar o tempo. É muito engraçado.
E TEM MAIS! DURANTE A FORMAÇÃO DA BANDA, ELE NÃO QUERIA SER VOCALISTA E FOI CONVENCIDO "FORÇADO" PELOS CARAS, GOSTAVA MUITO DE FICAR SÓ NOS QUARTOS DE HOTEL MUNDO AFORA, DISCUTIA PRA DEDÉU COM PAUL (JAMES NÃO SE METIA), DETESTAVA TURNÊS E DIZIA QUE NÃO QUERIA SER FAMOSO.

Nem nos shows ele sorri
@@ragnar2803 e serio? poxaa ele nao quis ser mas ele canta tão bem, e a banda fez sussesso, ele deveria estar orgulhoso né, enfim, ele deve ser uma pessoa muito difícil.
Acredito q o problema dele seja com a imprensa pq com o público ele estava mto bem no ultimo show em Sp no Terra SP, estava mto tranquilo a vontade.
What does Kurt say after : "hold it hold it somebody stole my glasses..." and before "...cause I'm a trooper"? (21'') thank you for your answer
“Alright, I’ll go.. I’ll do it without them.”
@@Sinjinator oh thank you very much
If they're from Minneapolis, why do they sound like a British band while signing?? Were they trying to emulate the British 80s sound? It's just strange.
moore ae2002 the British hit everyone with Punk, New Wave & Synthpop for a decade, so tons of bands over here emulated British styles,, the sounds, the clothes, the hair, the visuals 🎯📻📡🎼🎧🍺🍸
Kurt's accent is 100% Minn-e-SOOOOTA.
I THOUGHT THE SAME
Still listening information society in 2018 awesome band
They are from Minneapolis so what did you expect them to sound like? ....PRINCE?...just kidding but British New Wave had a profound influence in America during the 80's...so can you fault us for liking good music?
Peace!
Show
This really was not necessarily electronic it was also considered freestyle music
