[kj] OT: New Stranglers Single

[Darren A. Peace]

Sorry.

 

<sarcasm on> At least JJ is singing it. <sarcasm off>

 

I wish JJ would sing more, although Baz is a fine singer.

PS Having listened to the track more, I also am irritated by the Eurovision gear change towards the end.

I'm also a big Stranglers fan having stuck with them through all their various incarnations (Although the release of the largely unlistenable "10" was a significant low point. I even like "Written in Red")!

This new track is good but not great. The Stranglers can produce this kind of track without even trying - I prefer it when they push the envelope a bit. But it's good to see new material from them even if it's just two tracks on another compilation. This seems to be the first compilation that includes tracks from every album so that's a plus because there is good material to be heard between the departure of Hugh and their resurgence with "Norfolk Coast".

That's Baz on vocals unless I'm mistaken
