Re: This current Stranglers is still The Stranglers.

Having watched part of The Brit Awards last night. I realise how wonderful The Stranglers are past and present. Bands evolve and fans evolve with them. I remember when Feline came out and feeling disappointed because it was not The Stranglers I knew. It took a while but I came to love the album beca...

Re: Best Vocalist of the Punk Era, your Favourite.

It was always the female vocalists that impressed me. Lena Lovich, Poly Styrene, Debbie Harry, Toyah, Siouxie Sioux, Cindy Wilson and Kate Pierson.

Re: White Stallion

Great sound. The Stranglers back to their experimental best. I for one love the opera bit. Do I still have to wait 7 weeks for Dark Matters? The suspense is killing me.

Re: The Great CD vs Vinyl debate

This last year I have been rediscovering the joys of vinyl. I conclude that it is the best way to listen to music. Just don't have the time to sit and enjoy it. Still mostly listening to music in the car.

Re: Who is britians best ever punk band!

Well the first 2 Stranglers albums were punk and far outshone others with their musical prowess. But that really wasn't the point of punk was it? Black and White was post punk I would say. Never had a lot of time for The Pistols though I liked their music but their attitude was deliberately confront...

Re: Tinned Spam

Spam is especially good fried. I also like corned beef. Some of the cheaper processed hams are a bit iffy. Does this make me a spam snob? What could possibly be snobbish about spam? Mind you I'd always considered it's near relative the plumrose bacon grill to be a bit more earthy and macho; somethi...
