Re: Dark Matters review
10 is obviously the four members of the classic Stranglers line-up exploring a different avenue of their sound to the one they explored on Rattus, but fundamentally the DNA of the band is recognisable as being the same. Dreamtime is one of their very best albums, IMO. I get what all parties are say...

Re: 2 versions of UB40 oh dear how sad.

Re: Glastonbury on TV
