I think I might have this played at my funeral in the 'quiet thoughts moment'. And have Metal Machine Music at the end.

La Folie is probably my favorite Stranglers albums, followed by Men in Black. This record seems to have a good flow to it from begin to end(with great songs), and I always loved this beautiful, cool album cover as well!

The Stranglers got caught up with the whole Punk thing by default. JJ admits he was a Punk, but as for Dave, Hugh and Jet, then went along for the ride. As Hugh once said, we just jumped on this rocket which was head for the moon! The Stranglers have remained because they can play and play well, write good music/songs and are talented. These are the key ingredients. Other bands come and go. PIL comes and goes....but the Stranglers have never stopped.

Punk is a culture of attitude not a set of certain musical arrangements. To debate whether this 'sounds' like punk is missing the point, the question do the creators have a punk philosophy of independence and creative control or are they directed and manufactured by market forces?

@cordedpoodle -I agreed 100% with you,and i also like the Damned and Captain sensible-Does where the good old days.

@pedrofaba Funny how that "Punk" label is so slippery. Yeah their early stuff is more punk, but not in the way kids think of punk now, and their middle stuff is criticized for being "too pop" when it was mostly really great music. Same with the Damned and Captain Sensible, another favorite of mine.

@TheBleech Probably because you don't understand the disease. I know 99% of DOCTORS think its a disease, but people with no training and no experience with it have strong counter opinions. Rather I have no sympathy for people with ordinary talents who gain extraordinary fame over extraordinary musicians like the Stranglers who are still somewhat obscure.

@WAWELDRAGON I was a fan from the start. This was not my favorite album until recently. Now it is my favorite. Listen to the Timbre and Counterpoint. This Album is really more of a sound SCULPTURE than Aural Sculpture. Stripped down and to the point.

@themScreamS ....You read my mind... all those creeps saying how great she was when they abandoned her. ...and you can bet your life Kevin 'Water World' Costner will resurrect his movie career on the back of his eulogy the other day... They should have had Hugh Cornwell up there, telling it how it is! :-)

@WAWELDRAGON You're right about them all except Feline. I think it is amongst their best work. My favourite will always be The Raven though.

WAWELDRAGON

Its a well wierd album as was Meninblack, my verdict is that Rattus was epic and haunting, Raven was clever and majestic, Black and White and Heroes were aggressive and melodic (especially Heroes) Feline was an embarrassment except a couple of tracks, Aural Sculpture listenable but the continuation of the downward trajectory that began with Feline.

This was for John Lennon

Wonder if they`ll play this song and dedicate to Amy on tour???? Should do? Esp,after the bands experiences with hard drugs,and JJ`s anti-drugs stance nowadays!!!

@themaninblack1874 No simpathy for folk with millions to spend, who self indulge in drink, drugs and whatever...
