New CD title:

Duran Duran gear up for the Red Carpet Massacre

After a successful trip to New York to work on some final mixes for their upcoming release, Red Carpet Massacre, the members of Duran Duran have returned to the UK to put the finishing touches on the album.

Having debuted some tracks last week at both a special show at the Hammerstein Ballroom for their Fan Community, and a listening party for the media, band members Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, John Taylor and Roger Taylor were thrilled with the results. Feedback from those in attendance teemed with excitement for the CD, coming this Fall on Epic Records.

The band have recorded Red Carpet Massacre over the past year, starting in New York City last September with Justin Timberlake and Timbaland at The Manhattan Centre and then in the UK with producer Nate 'Danja' Hills and mixer/engineer Jimmy Douglass.

Some track titles include:

- Nite Runner (co-written with and featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland)
- Skin Divers (featuring Timbaland)
- Red Carpet Massacre
- Box Full o' Honey
- Last Man Standing
- The Valley
- Falling Down (co written with Justin Timberlake)


The band, who are set to perform at both The Princess Diana Tribute (July 1st) and the Live Earth Concert (July 7) at Wembley Stadium, were joined in the studio by touring musician Dom Brown on guitar.

awesome

Is anyone going to watch the Princess Diana tribute on VH1 today?

I want to see Duran Duran, Elton John and Fergie, but I don't see myself watching all 5 hours of this.

It's on at 11AM this morning.

2007 is the year...Prince, Pumpkins, Duran Duran!

They did very well today at the Princess Diana tribute, Simon sounded strong.
