Description:
Part New Wave, part pure punk, part Brit pop, the Psychedelic Furs have changed little over the course of their more than two decades together, as this video, recorded in Los Angeles in 2001, makes crystal clear. That means that Furs fans will delight in the 15-song, 75-minute concert's nonstop onslaught of thick, echo-drenched slabs of guitar and frontman Richard Butler's braying vocals. Sure, the lyrics are largely unintelligible, and the sound tends toward the monotonous; Butler says nary a word to the audience, and there are no on- screen titles, which makes it tough to tell one song from another. But the singer has undeniable charisma and energy, as well as some catchy tunes, including, of course, "Pretty in Pink," from the '86 movie of that name. And the 15-minute, three-song acoustic segment is a welcome bonus at the end of the program. --Sam Graham
