By all accounts, the somewhat unexpected 2014 King Crimson tour was a resounding success and Live at the Orpheum is the first offering for those who were unable to attend. The band had been reinvented with a combination of new and returning players and the set list consisted largely of tunes that hadn’t been performed live since the ’70s, if at all. The main wild card was the three-drummer front line, which easily could have turned into a mess, even without music as challenging as Crimson’s.

The time frame in which the Zombies formed, created their best-known material and initially broke up was roughly six years, burning bright from around 1962 until going into the recording of their 1968 masterpiece Odessey and Oracle knowing they were going to disband after it came out. Their second act has been considerably longer, with founding members Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone officially taking back up the Zombies mantle in the early 2000s and producing multiple albums of new material since then.

Death and loss loom large over the mournful Memento Mori, Depeche Mode’s 15th album and first without founding member Andy Fletcher. Started long before his passing in 2022 and influenced more by the effects of a global pandemic, the somber set took on even more gravity and significance after he died. Understandably subdued and emotionally heavy, this is the sound of two old friends reeling from tragedy while keeping an eye on the days that remain.
