Description

The governing principle behind Theatre Of the Absurd Presents Cest La Vie, is let Madness be Madness. The result is an album of typically timeless brilliance that also reflects the wonky years of its creation. On release the album soared triumphantly to claim Madnesss first ever UK No.1 studio album.Now they return with an Enhanced Edition of the album which features 5 brand new songs from the original album sessions and 7 unreleased live tracks recorded on 2023s Cest La Vie tour including the bands cover of The Specials classic Friday Night Saturday Morning. An album that is among their absolute best MojoThis return to form finds Madness battered by life, but with their melodic instincts and theatrical flourishes intact The TimesTheir most up for it allout pop album.
