Faithless - Live at Alexandria Palace (2005)
Faithless have lost faith- We haven't
Faithless are the most diverse of all the dance acts to come out of the UK in the 90s, with the potential exception of Aphex Twin. They combined simple yet brilliant trance with gentle acoustic ballads. But not 2 hours ago, rapper Maxi Jazz released a terrible statement:
After 15 years(!) and six albums(!!) I think we've probably made our collective point by now and that it's time to close the book and return to the library...
We've had, with you, the most unbelievable, epic and moving experience, stretching over years and tens of thousands of miles... joyful, exhilarating and empowering, we never for a moment thought an affair could last this long. Or be this powerful. Never thought for a moment that the end of this journey would be left to us either...
Quite naturally people grow, change and leave the things of youth behind them. You've not only brought us with you, but introduced us to y'children too! What're you like..?
The album 'The Dance Never Ends' was written and produced for you, as a thank you, but also as a goodbye.. the tour schedule has been particularly hectic as we attempt to visit as many territories as there are people who wanna see us.. And say thank you.
If I devoted the rest of my life to the task, I could NEVER thank you enough. I have memories that will still be with me in my next life.
But, like when writing a song, you always just 'know' when it's finished... this is and was the "Thank YOU And Goodbye' tour and to be truthful, I really hope you just pick up the ball of your life.. AndRUN WITH IT!!
Once again, whether you bought or downloaded a cd, came to a show or told your mates about us... Whether from the beginning or just last week. Thank you.
You'll be in my heart forever. Listen for my voice in future lifetimes, I only grow in your shadow, you're the sun to me.
One Love.
Maxi
Having just discovered Faithless, and not being one of the ones who loved them forever, I find myself saddened at this news. RIP Faithless
