The last ever show from 80’s Synth-Pop pioneers, Soft Cell, which took place on 30th September 2018 at a sold out O2 Arena in London to rave reviewed & also streamed live in to over 200 cinemas worldwide, released on 26th July 2019 by Live Here Now. The incredible live show, which as well as being duo Marc Almond and Dave Ball’s last ever together, was also a celebration of Soft Cell’s 40th anniversary. The London Evening Standard said of the farewell show that the ‘stately synth-pop was deserving of its arena moment’, whilst The Guardian gave the show 4* calling it ‘… a swansong full of sex, noise and darkness’. One of the most influential groups to emerge from the electronic music scene in the UK in the 1980s, Soft Cell produced five albums of original material, book-ended by their debut; 1981’s ‘Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret’, and 2002’s ‘Cruelty Without Beauty’. The incredible string of hits Soft Cell produced during this time, including ten tracks that reached the UK Top 40 singles charts, need little introduction.The unique combination of Ball’s musicianship and Almond’s tender yet assured delivery on songs such as ‘Memorabilia’, ‘Torch’, and of course their trademark ‘Say Hello, Wave Goodbye’ inhabits a unique place in British music history.Celebrating this remarkable career together, Marc Almond and Dave Ball said hello and waved goodbye at London’s The O2 last year with a feather in their cap. Now, with the release of the show, audiences can experience the final act of one of Britain’s finest pop bands. Tracklisting1. Overture2. Memorabilia3. Monoculture4. Darker Times5. Together Alone6.
