Although it might seem out of the blue, it looks like Universal Music is about to (rerere)release a The Cranberries “almost†complete session on October 7th, 2016…Indeed, the below item has just appeared on different websites such as Amazon or eBay under the name “5 Classic Albumsâ€.61gppmkfu2lThe box set should contain five CDs although Amazon states there is “one disc†inside.Indeed, if you search for the Universal 5 Classic Albums collection on the Internet, you’ll find box sets for different artists such a Status Quo, Lynyrd Skynyrd and many others, that all include five discs.We can thus imagine the box set features the band’s first five albums Everybody Else Is Doing It So Why Can’t We, No Need To Argue, To The Faithful Departed, Bury The Hatchet and Wake Up And Smell The Coffee.This is only an assumption, but what’s for sure is that the cover of the box set looks just GREAT !
2017 promises to be a very, very special year for The Cranberries in terms of touring and recording.
This Sunday Noel Hogan posted on Twitter: “First day of Cranberries rehearsal tomorrow. Peru show coming up.†And today the first photo of the rehearsals appeared on the band’s Instagram and fans discovered Mike, Dolores and crew members inside the Irish Chamber Orchestra Studio located at Limerick University in Limerick, Ireland.
Do not read below if you don’t wanna be spoiled as this is possibly the setlist for the next Cranberries show in Lima, Peru. The source comes from Johanna (back vocals) who posted on her Instagram (Story) account a short video filmed during the rehearsals yesterday at the Irish Chamber Orchestra Studio in Limerick. At the very end of the video appears the setlist and The Cranberries Brasil did a screen capture below, so thanks to them for noticing!For those who can’t read:AnalyseAnimalWantedLingerWhen You GoneDreaming My DreamsJust My ImaginationOdeLoud And ClearFree To DecideCan’t Be With YouConductDesperate AndyPlayboysSalvationRidiculousZombieEmptyYou And MePromisesDreamsWell, this is not really a proper spoil as this is the same set as the European shows this summer. Fans in Peru probably won’t be disappointed as they haven’t seen the band live for almost 7 years. Remember that The Cranberries didn’t visit the South American continent with their Roses Tour and the last time the band played in Lima was during the Reunion Tour in February 2010. This setlist will probably appear as fresh for all the fans over there.
Con una brillante carrera musical a sus espaldas, The Cranberries se han consolidado como uno de los grupos más aclamados del panorama internacional de las últimas díécadas. Muchos soñábamos con su regreso, que es ahora una realidad: Su síéptimo álbum de estudio verá la luz en Mayo de 2017. Así lo contaban en la entrevista que el guitarrista Noel Hogan y el baterista Fergal Lawler concedieron a Publimetro en Perú.Ya lo adelantaban ellos mismos en su web oficial: 2017 sería un gran año para The Cranberries en lo que a grabación y gira se refiere. Están apunto de terminar un álbum en acústico con la Irish Chamber Orchestra, en el que sus grandes íéxitos experimentarán nuevos sonidos. Si el simple hecho de imaginar canciones como “Zombieâ€, “Lingerâ€, “Animal Instinct†o “Can’t Be With You†en acústico y con unos arreglos de cuerdas pone la piel de gallina, las tres nuevas canciones que vendrán incluidas en este álbum no dejan lugar a dudas de que estamos hablando de una de las grandes promesas musicales del próximo año. Esperan que el álbum sea publicado en Mayo de 2017. Este lanzamiento vendrá seguido de una nueva gira promocional. Además, habrá un noveno álbum, con temas completamente nuevos, que saldrá despuíés.Dando un paseo por el jardín de los recuerdos, poco podían imaginar aquellos chavales de Limerick, con la cabeza llena de sueños e ilusiones, que algún día llegarían con su música a lo más alto de las listas de ventas, que un público internacional que reúne a varias generaciones corearía sus canciones al unísono. Es la esencia de The Cranberries, lo que les permite interactuar con sus seguidores:La gente disfruta con sus canciones porque les transmiten y les permiten darles una interpretación. Porque es fácil empatizar con The Cranberries cuando hablan de sus inquietudes e ilusiones; pero tambiíén cuando expresan rabia y desilusión; cuando hablan del renacer tras el dolor, o de la aceptación y la sabiduría de la madurez. Es así como conectan con su público: Cuando no dominan el idioma de la audiencia para la que están tocando, dejan que sean sus canciones las que hablen por ellos.Cuando les preguntan, Noel y Fergal no se deciden a escoger solo una canción que represente la carrera de The Cranberries. Y no es de extrañar; eso sería posible para cualquier banda de un solo íéxito, pero no es íése el caso de The Cranberries. Cada canción representa un momento, una parte de sus vidas, una parte de ellos, de su ser. Es por esto que para The Cranberries, lo más importante es el sonido, “el sonido de Cranberries†y que cada elemento de la composición tenga su espacio en una perfecta armonía.
So today is the last day of recording the band for the new album. More news soon...
After a quiet few weeks on here I am back to work. Strings today for the new Cranberries album. Last day of recording on this album.
