Live from the Orient CD

The Revillos • Live From The Orient CD

Live From The Orient captures The Revillos returning to the stage in Japan in 1994, nine years after the band had fallen silent. The reunion saw the legendary Scottish outfit heading east for a tour, and this live recording catches the explosive energy of that comeback, packed with the band's eccentric blend of Punk, New Wave, Rock 'n' Roll and futuristic Pop mayhem.

The set races through Revillos favourites including Motorbike Beat, Where's The Boy For Me?, She's Fallen In Love With A Monster Man, Mystery Action, Scuba Scuba and Rev Up, alongside Do The Mutilation, My Baby Does Good Sculptures and the wonderfully chaotic Somebody's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight. Secret Of The Shadow, Snatzmobile, Bongo Brain, Manhunt and Voodoo keep the momentum flying, with the band sounding every bit as gloriously unhinged as their reputation suggests.

Recorded during the 1994 Japanese tour, Live From The Orient is a fascinating document of The Revillos' return after almost a decade away. It captures the band's irresistible live personality in full flight, bringing together the catchy songs, manic energy and wonderfully bizarre sense of fun that made The Revillos such a unique force in the British underground.
