Re: Dark Matters v Giants

Breathe sounds a bit Pinky Floydy to me! It sounds terrible to me, but your mileage may vary. I think comparing it to Pink Floyd is far too kind... Pink Floyd at their peak were "greatest of all time" material. "Breathe" is a bit of a limp non-thing. Breathe is actually my favou...

Tbf the thread was always going take a turn. I’m gobsmacked there’s even one person who rates Giants over Dark Matters. Personally, I don’t even think it’s close.

Re: dark matters chart chances

Dark Matters is also the final Dave Greenfield Stranglers album, released in his memory. Every sale and play is a tribute to him and reaching a high chart position does him proud. Not being congratulatory on that would be churlish. I'd argue that any play of any Stranglers album is a tribute to Dav...
