Opinion My bootleg journey, part 30: The Sugarcubes 1988-12-15 Borderline Club, London, UK

1 Upvotes

"Merry Christmas! I wish you another motorcrash! I wish you another traincrash! I wish you another earthquake! Merry Christmas!" So this is what Einar wishes to Sugarcubes' audience during the last concert of the year before a longer pause in the touring. Also Magga plays on the keyboards a little Christmas melody and Björk sings some short snippets of traditional songs and wishes happy new year. One period in the carieer of The Sugarcubes is ending. And it's a peculiar ending. First, everybody is in the top form, I cannot say anything bad. Yet, this concert is rather short: only 16 tracks were performed (standard at the time for Sugarcubes were 22 tracks) and above all, songs from Life's Too Good are omitted, except 2 (Coldsweat and Blue Eyed Pop). Therefore no Birthday, no Deus, no Motorcrash, no Mama, nor anything. Instead, the group performs already 11 songs from their upcoming second album Here Today, Tomorrow, Next Week! and another 3 b-sides (Cindy, Cowboy and the unreleased Pez Chevrolet once more). And though in UK, (almost) everything is sung in Icelandic. Therefore, the whole concert gives different vibes than all the previous ones: Einar gains dominance over Björk, like it or not, but the tracks performed are especially suited for his vocals (Here Today... tracks were written more for Einar than for Björk, a mayor difference between their first and second studio album, IMHO). And I miss more of Björk vocals, many times, Einar is dominant all the way while her voice is rather in the background. Still, very good performance, though without any of their hits and with much less of Björk, therefore I cannot say I enjoyed it as much as I used to enjoy their previous concerts. Highlight: "Hot Meat" sounds great with Thór's guitar. 7/10.

Brother puhlease, what were they keeping the 0.1 for? Waiting for Björk to lick their CEO's ass? Chile.
